When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 935 The Compromising Photos And Videos

Cecília chuckled. “Of course not.”

Stella’s tense nerves instantly eased.

“You know, we could still be best friends,” she said, reaching out to link arms with Cecilia.

Cecilia abruptly pulled away from her. “I’m not angry, because you simply aren’t worth my anger. What I want to tell you is that even if you wish me dead, I won’t make life easy for you.”

Stella stood frozen in place, taking a long time to regain her senses.

When Cecilia emerged from the restroom, Stella had adopted a completely different demeanor.

“Cecilia, you can come after me, but show some guts, and don’t rely on Nathaniel or Calvin to help you.” She believed that without the help of men, Cecilia was no match for her at all.

However, she had misunderstood. Cecilia never actually told Nathaniel that after being kidnapped by Ethan, Stella had also shown up.

Cecilia curled her lips into a mocking smile. “Don’t worry, I won’t.”

After all, Stella would soon find out.

Upon hearing her say that, Stella was no longer as fearful of Cecilia. With her head held high and chest puffed out, she briskly walked ahead.

As they returned to the gathering, everyone had nearly finished eating and was getting ready to sing.

Before starting the song, Ruth asked, “Does anyone remember our five–year agreement to share photos and videos from our school days?”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Everyone remembered and began shouting at her to play the video.

Following the crowd’s wishes, Ruth pressed play.

Initially, the video was all about their university life, which stirred up a lot of emotions among those present.

Time sure flew by quickly.

Somewhere along the way, the footage had changed. It first showed the back profiles of two individuals, then transitioned to a side view of a man and woman sharing a kiss.

The photograph was remarkably clear, featuring Stella and Francis.

Everyone present knew Francis, for he was a known playboy, and notably, he was also Yvette’s fiancé.

Yvette was utterly stunned, staring at the pictures on the screen. The images transitioned from kissing photos to more compromising ones, and even videos. Her breathing became increasingly labored.

Stella, the woman featured in the photographs, was also dumbfounded.

It was unclear whether Ruth did it on purpose or it was just an oversight, but the video was left running for quite some time.

It wasn’t until Stella turned off the power switch that the images on the projector screen finally disappeared.

With the audio and video gone, the scene was as silent as death.

Ruth asked in confusion, “How come there are photos and videos of Stella and. Francis together in here?”

No one responded to her, though they whispered among themselves.

“Isn’t Francis engaged to Yvette? Why was he with Stella?”

“Who knows?”

“Isn’t Stella supposed to be Yvette’s best friend? Just now, Yvette was so defensive of her too. There’s no way Stella would betray her, right?”

Every word spoken felt like a thorn piercing into Yvette’s heart.

Immediately, Stella reached out and grasped Yvette’s hand. “Yvie, let me explain…”

“Explain? How are you going to explain this?” Yvette glared at her coldly.

After some thought, Stella finally said, “It was all Francis‘ doing. He forced me. I didn’t initiate anything.”

Smack!

Yvette fiercely slapped Stella across the face.

“Forced you? When I was watching the video earlier, you seemed to be thoroughly enjoying yourself, weren’t you?”

How could Yvette have ever imagined that her best friend, whom she had always defended, and her fiancé, to whom she was already engaged, would betray her in such a way?

She was so furious that her entire body was trembling.

Stella’s cheek throbbed with pain, but what was worse was the crowd around her, all pointing fingers at her as they shot her judgmental looks.

She couldn’t help but say, “You and Francis aren’t even married, so there’s nothing wrong with him being with me, is there?”
