NovelOnlineChapter 1376
Seeing Victor's frown, Elysia spoke up right away.
"If you can prove I'm guilty, I'll accept whatever punishment the law hands down- no complaints, no arguments. |
won't let Tarquin or my father cause any trouble over it, either."
Victor gave Elysia a complicated look. Deep down, he knew exactly why she was saying this-she wanted him to
take a stand.
Uncertain, Victor turned to his granddaughter.
"Sabrina, what you're accusing her of is incredibly serious. If you're lying, you'll have to face the consequences
of the law-your grandpa won't protect you this time."
He paused, fixing her with a stern gaze. “I'm going to ask you one last time. Did you lie?"
Victor was no fool-he knew just how grave this situation was. Deliberately exposing healthcare workers to a
contagious virus wasn't just a personal crime; it could threaten public safety, even the whole country. If the virus
spread, it could affect the entire world.
If Sabrina was telling the truth, Elysia was finished. But if Sabrina was lying, then she'd be the one to go down-
and there'd be nothing anyone could do to save her.
Even though Sabrina was a Stevenson, Elysia had Tarquin and Clayton in her corner. Those two could move
mountains in both business and politics. There was no way they'd let Elysia take the fall for something she didn't
do. If Sabrina really framed her, not even the top brass could persuade Tarquin and Clayton to back down.
After all, everyone knew-Tarquin was notorious for spoiling his wife, and Clayton was just as famous for doting on
his daughter. If anyone messed with Elysia, those two would never let it go-unless the evidence was ironclad.
But in the end, not even they were above the law.

Sabrina, however, stood her ground, gritting her teeth.
"I'm not lying! | have witnesses who can prove she did this to us!"
Victor let out a heavy sigh, finally making his position clear.
"I'll make sure this is handled fairly and justly. Whoever's guilty will face the consequences. | won't interfere."
Elysia nodded.
"| trust Victor's integrity. | know you'll keep your word."
She turned to Sabrina.
"Ms. Stevenson, if you claim you have witnesses, then let's have them cforward and confrontface-to-
face."
And the witnesses ca whole crowd of them. There were security guards, janitors, nurses, and staff from the
lab.
One said they saw Elysia sneaking into the hospital that day. Another insisted they saw her go into the lab.
Someone else claimed they saw her enter the conference room before, Sabrina and the Medical &
Pharmaceutical Association group arrived on the day of the infection. s
Basically, everyone was pointing fingers at Elysia, each with their own version of the story. The security. cameras
had conveniently broken that day, so it was all just their word against hers. s
Of course, these stories were all carefully rehearsed-Sabrina had coached them herself.
Sabrina, watching remotely via video call, raised her voice.
"Grandpa, you heard them! I'm not
lying! So many people are testifying against Elysia-she's obviously
guilty! And by the way
these are all
Benjamin's people, Benjamin's
good friend of Elysia's, so his people
wouldn't just side with me. That makes their testimony even more credible!" s
Elysia glanced at the witnesses. Sure
enough, they were all Benjamin's
employees. If thew Wefelying She

finger-Benjamin would deal with
them himself. The content is on

Sabrina looked smug.
