The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 177

"Miss... Miss Bai..." Yvonne remembered what had happened before she had blacked out, and she knew what she was going to face now. It was just a stroke of bad luck that she ran into Aron at the party.

However, she was mortified at the thought of having to face so many people. Particularly, because she was almost naked.

She grabbed the quilt quickly and covered her body with it, as her eyes turned red.

Wretched as she was, she was still a woman.

Rachel didn't want to waste any more time, so she interrupted Yvonne impatiently, "Come on! Stop crying!" She winked at Yvonne cheekily and asked, "Tell me, did Mrs. Lu bring you here?"

However, Yvonne didn't respond to Rachel's question because she couldn't stop herself from crying.

"Please tell us, " Rachel urged. When she didn't receive any responses from Yvonne, Rachel lost her patience and grabbed her by the shoulders. She raised her voice to her, "I said stop crying! Tell us what happened, so we can help you."

Rachel softened her voice and comforted Yvonne, "Just tell us, did Mrs. Lu bring you here? Does Mrs. Lu have an illicit relationship with Mr. Qin?"

'No matter what I say next, my reputation can't be salvaged. If only I hadn't been caught by Charles here, but unfortunately he's already seen me. If I help Rachel frame Autumn, Charles will never forgive me. He will keep digging further and further into the matter, no matter what the cost.' Yvonne chose to protect herself, fearing possible retaliation from Charles. At that very moment, she decided to stop acting according to Rachel's plan.

"No, it's not like what you think..." replied Yvonne, still sobbing uninhibitedly. "I... I just had a headache, so I came upstairs to lie down for a bit. Soon I fell asleep and I have no idea of what happened after that."

Rachel asked as her face turned red with fury, "What did you just say?" She didn't expect Yvonne to betray her like that at the very last moment.

Rachel gnashed her teeth and screamed at Yvonne, "Have you lost your mind? Do you know what..." Now she wanted to tear Yvonne into a million pieces.

Yvonne pushed Rachel's hands away slowly and asked, "Miss Bai, what do you want me to tell you? Do you think it was appropriate of you to break into the room with so many people?''

Yvonne looked extremely pitiful with her reddened, tear-filled eyes. The reporters shook their heads and thought, 'Rachel must have always pretended to be an amiable and kind woman. Now, she has finally shown her true colors.'

"Well, you two..." sneered Rachel, pointing at Yvonne and Ken. "You colluded with each other to make a fool out of me, didn't you?"

'They agreed to help me then, but now they're betraying me at this crucial moment. This is so embarrassing, ' Rachel's thoughts filled with hatred and disappointment.

"Miss Bai, I think you need to explain your actions to us." These reporters were not going to be fooled so easily. They had figured out what kind of trick Rachel was playing. Although they were reporters, they couldn't allow Rachel to take advantage of them without any benefits in return. Therefore, they had decided to blackmail Rachel.

Ken screamed out impatiently, "Please go outside to resolve your petty squabbles. I'd like for you all to leave this room right now!"
