a step back, putting some distance between herself and Zoe to steer clear of the ongoing

controversy.

The reporters who came to their senses scrutinized Zoe.

One of them remarked, "So, Ms. Harper was pointing fingers, even though she wasn't even a VIP member

at AX. That's quite absurd."

Another chimed in, saying, "She should have minded her own business."

A third reporter added, "She believes she can have a say just because she bought a few pieces from AX.

Look at her, making these bold accusations in front of the CEO, who probably doesn't even know her name. It's rather tactless. She's no match for Ms. Alyssa!"

Zoe couldn't help but grumble inwardly about the media. How could they compare her to Alyssa? Zoe's mind went blank as she almost blacked out from the anger. That was the greatest humiliation she

had endured in her young life.

Alyssa paid no attention to Zoe as she left the scene, chatting merrily with Vincent and Ada.

The reporters flocked after them, leaving Zoe behind. Her face drained of color.

"Zoe! T-This is bad!" Betty hurried over and tugged on Zoe's arm. She hissed nervously, "Jasper is here!" "J-Jasper? Where?" Feeling guilty, Zoe sweated profusely.

Zoe buried her face in her palms and sobbed loudly in the washroom. Her delicate eye makeup was smudged, and her eyeliner and glitter were everywhere.

She grumbled, "Damn it! Why isn't that bitch dead yet? She should've been run over by a car or something!"

She cried not only because Alyssa outmaneuvered her at the event. More damningly, Jasper caught her in the act of creating trouble for Alyssa. This time, she could not talk her way out of it. 1 "Exactly. Why hasn't karma caught up with her?" Betty cursed Alyssa alongside Zoe, but she was secretly gleeful about Zoe's defeat. (1

"Why didn't you do anything about it? Not a word from you!" Zoe released her anger on Betty.

"I-I was too dumb to think of anything. You've always been the one to come up with ideas. I'm useless here. If I were smarter, I'd have handled Alyssa myself," Betty hurriedly explained. Between sobs, Zoe hissed, "Is there no news from Abigail yet? Has she not found anything to exploit?

That useless loser!"

Right then, Betty's phone buzzed. After checking the caller's name, she grinned evilly and waved her phone at Zoe. "Guess who this is? It's a call from Abigail!"

Zoe clenched her jaw. "This time, I want Alyssa Taylor to crash! I want all her efforts to go to waste!"
