Chapter 219
Fiona was in a panic. She wanted to defend Eliza, but her lips trembled. She stammered for a long moment without saying a word
Zephyra was breathing heavily with anger. She picked up the documents from the floor and threw them at Fiona. She shouted. “Take a good look yourself, this is the daughter you’ve raised!”
The document Zephyra threw hit Fiona’s face, leaving a faint white scratch.
Fiona didn’t have time to be angry. She grabbed the document and started to read it. When Fiona saw the photo where Eliza was hitting her abdomen in front of the camera and hiding a dagger in her pocket, Fiona’s expression changed.
Though Fiona had long suspected that Eliza might have set this up herself, upon seeing this evidence with her own eyes. Fiona felt a moment of numbness in her heart.
Fiona glanced back at Eliza, who looked miserable and gaunt on the hospital bed and felt a chill she couldn’t shake off.
Eliza bit her lip in grievance and, under Fiona’s gaze, silently let tears roll down her cheeks.
After all. Eliza was the daughter Fiona had owed for over twenty years. At this moment, even knowing the truth, Fiona couldn’t blame Eliza.
Fiona could only complain that Eliza still hadn’t learned and let Audrey catch her off guard after being tricked so many
times.
Fiona slowly closed the file. Then, she looked Zephyra straight in the eye and said firmly, “They’re just some photos; anyone can edit them. Mrs. Hayes, you don’t really believe it, do you?”
Zephyra thought. Facing the end, yet she is making excuses. A hint of disdain flashed through her eyes as she couldn’t be bothered to argue
Fiona quickly turned her attention to Audrey. She launched into a tirade, “Audrey, I know you can’t stand seeing Eliza with Dominic, so you’ve been scheming to ruin her. But to stoop to such cheap tricks? That’s just low!”
Audrey let out a cold chuckle. Her face showed indifference as she said. “I expected you to say that, so besides the photos, I’ve also copied the surveillance footage. Should I play it for everyone?”
Audrey waved a silver USB drive in her hand.
Eliza’s eyes widened in shock as she blurted out, “How is that possible? I’d made sure to destroy all the surveillance footage She just confessed.
As soon as Eliza said that, Fiona, who hadn’t even had a chance to defend Eliza, went pale
Even Dominic, who’d been silent for so long, widened his eyes in surprise. He suddenly pushed past Fiona, standing in front of the hospital bed, and fixed a cold stare on Eliza. He asked, “What did you just say?”
Before Eliza could deny it, he continued with a chilling determination, “So you plaimed all of this. You’ve been using me all along!”
Eliza regretted her words the moment they left her lips, But once said, she couldn’t take them back. At that moment, her face was still swollen and sore from Zephyra’s slap.
Looking at Dominic’s face, full of anger and accusation, Eliza felt the pain seep deep into her heart. She thought, I have gone through so much, what is it all for? In the end, Dominic still cares more about Audrey than me
‘He has wanted to stand up for Audrey, and now that he found a fault in me, he must be pleased

Eliza felt like her heart was lifeeding, but she still wanted to defend herself. She was slightly out of breath, lips trembling. and said pitifully. “Dominic, please listen to my explanation”
Dominic had already run out of patience. He shouted, “Shut up! Don’t call me that?” He suddenly leaned down and grabbed Eliza by the throat.
Eliza’s eyes widened, and she grasped his hand in panic,
Dominic’s grip tightened gradually. He glared at Eliza’s repulsive face up close, filled with anger and shame. He said, “Eliza, no one has ever dared to mess with me like this. You’re really something”
