Chapter 539 Suffering From a Double Loss

"You" Before Jane could say anything, Selena gave her a firm slap across the cheek once more. Jane pressed on her burning face and yelled, "How dare you!"

"Why wouldn't I? The first slap is for my daughter, and the second slap is for my son! Jane, we're even now." Jane stood there, choking on anger, for she was shocked by Selena's powerful glare that was filled with hatred.

"Give me back the scroll! That ancient scroll belongs to my dad!" Knowing that she was in the wrong, she still insisted on getting her way. "That is not yours!"

"Really?" Selena lifted a brow, questioning Jane's claim. "Is that so? This scroll belongs to us from the start. If not, how could my son recite the contents? Am I right?"

Jameson hurriedly nodded and agreed. "That scroll is ours!"

"You" Jane had never expected that Selena would really claim ownership of the ancient scroll.

"Let's go." Pierre urged them along with an arm around Selena's waist. The family of five left the grounds triumphantly, leaving Jane stomping angrily behind them.

Since the guests had all left, Jane shed her aristocratic air. Jason helped her to clean up the venue and send the guests off. His job was done after that.

Jane looked at Jason, who was walking over to her with a stern face. "I will get going now. Bye."

"Jason! Listen to me! I can explain. Today's incident-"

"What is left to be explained?" He cut her off irritatedly. "You wanted to ruin Selena Yard's reputation by accusing her of fashion plagiarism, and you framed her son for stealing an ancient scroll. Isn't that obvious?"

"No, that's not it! I did not plan to trick her. I saw her wearing the dress, and I was confident that she had plagiarized the design. That was why I started picking on her. I did not purposely slander her at all! As for the ancient scroll, you can't accuse me of planting the evidence on the kid! That is my dad's most treasured scroll. How would I—”

"Yes, the scroll is your father's treasure, and it must have been hidden in the study of the castle. How could a kid figure out the location of your study, and more precisely, learn about the location of the ancient scroll? Even if he had known about it, he could not have gotten past the servants to steal the scroll!"

At that moment, Jane was completely speechless from Jason's rebuke.

He did not bother to talk further with Jane. Her plan seemed to be impeccable, but in his eyes, it looked ridiculously foolish and flawed. Great! In the end, she suffered from a double loss and humiliated herself!

Jason strode away, leaving her stomping behind him. The servants pinched their noses and stayed away from her. She was incensed at their actions and screamed, "What are you doing? Get lost! All of you!" In the car back to the hotel, the three musketeers were happy because they had carried out the perfect revenge. In contrast, the adults in the car looked upset and sat in silence. When Selena first saw Joaquin using the laptop to control the lighting and foam machine at the venue, she was taken aback by his capability.

All the time, she was wondering how Joaquin managed to pull it off. Did he use the laptop to hack the Oberlin Family's electric circuit? Is that what happened?

As much as she knew that Joaquin was intelligent and exhibited maturity beyond his age, she was unaware of his actual capability and was shocked to replace him executing the complex plan. So, did Pierre not help him at all?

Back at the hotel, the three musketeers were squealing and laughing merrily.

"Get over here right now!"

Just as Selena was about to ask Pierre about the incident, she saw him seated on the sofa with a strict expression. When he gave the command, his three kids immediately went quiet.
