“So it was you! How did you get in?” Jade questioned, her voice filled with disbelief.

Grace casually played with her fingernails and responded lazily, “The bodyguard informed the butler, and I entered through the main entrance.”

The butler let her In?

Had their long serving butler been bribed so easily?

Jade glared at Grace, her anger simmering. Grace seemed to read her thoughts and spoke with at sneer, “This is the downfall of a family. Today marks the day your Evans family crumbles. It’s only natural for those involved to cooperate.”

Jade seethed with rage, her fists clenched. “You despicable woman! You’ve gone too far! Do you think that by attacking my family like this, we will simply crumble? You’re delusional!”

“Harm my family?” Grace scoffed, “I’m merely exposing the dirty secrets of the Evans family to the world. If your family is innocent, why fear the truth?”

“You” Jade was about to explode in anger, but deep down, she knew Grace was right. The Evans Group’s troubles and Mrs. Evans’s affair with James–all of it was orchestrated by them.

Inside the room, the screams grew more desperate and agonizing.

“Ah! James, how dare you lay a hand on me? You dare commit domestic violence! I’ll sue you! I wish death upon you and your mistress!”

“You’re a murderer! James is about to kill someone! Save me! Help, someone! Save Mother Evans!”

Mrs. Evans’s cries echoed through the room as she was mercilessly beaten, her voice growing hoarse.

Jade resolved to confront Grace, but an uproar interrupted her thoughts. The noise was coming from downstairs–there was a commotion brewing.

Only Twelve and Nineteen had come today. The noise upstairs was unsettling, and Jade frowned, elegantly rubbing her earlobes, “Both of you, go up and mediate the situation. Bring everyone down here.”

“Yes,” Twelve and Nineteen promptly acted upon her orders.

Nineteen threw a punch that knocked James unconscious, forcefully bringing him downstairs. Mrs. Evans and Jade followed closely behind.

Mrs. Evans’s hair was disheveled, her face bearing the marks of the one sided altercation. The strength difference between men and women was evident, and her cheeks were swollen from the blows.

As Jade entered the living room, she found herself at a disadvantage. In the scuffle, she had accidentally been injured by James and had received a slap to her face.

Grace instructed Twelve to bring a small sofa, placing it opposite the coffee table. The three of them were seated separately.

The butler and the household staff discreetly gathered by the door, observing the scene unfold. Jade noticed Grace taking the main seat. In comparison to the Evans family, Grace appeared more like the mistress of the house, asserting her dominance.

Grace reclined leisurely, resting against the sofa’s backrest, her eyes fixed on the three Individuals seated across from her. She clapped her long, white hands gently.

“What an early morning family drama to behold. Truly exhilarating,” she remarked with a smirk.

Mrs. Evans’s face was swollen, and moving her mouth caused pain. Jade stared intently at Grace. speaking first, “Don’t think for a moment that my Evans family will crumble so easily. I won’t let these things go forgotten! You’ll pay for everything one day! Just you wait!”

Grace laughed mockingly. “You think I should be the one paying? Unfortunately, you won’t have that

chance.”

Jade was taken aback by Grace’s cold and arrogant gaze. “What do you mean?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Grace glanced at Twelve, who stepped forward and handed a document to Jade. “Miss Evans, this is the evidence of your involvement in the kidnapping and attempted murder of Zhang Siyuan, a trainee from the talent show. It also includes proof of your embezzlement of 8.8 billion public funds from the Fallen Group. Now that Miss Grace has taken charge of the Fallen Group, she has the right to reclaim that money from you. And this” Twelve continued, recounting in detail all of Jade’s clandestine activities.

Jade stared at the pile of papers in shock. How had this woman managed to dig up so much. incriminating evidence against her?

Grace observed her reaction with a satisfied smile. “You seem surprised, Miss Evans. But tearing things up seems to be your preference, so I prepared plenty you.”

Nineteen swiftly brought forward a large cardboard box that had been placed on the back of the sofa, placing it on the coffee table,

Twelve joined in, scattering more papers around the vast living room of the Evans family villa. The room quickly became littered with the torn remnants of Jade’s secrets.

Overwhelmed with rage, Jade could no longer contain herself. She tore the evidence into shreds, as if hoping to erase her guilt through sheer force.

Grace watched calmly as Jade destroyed the papers. When she had finished, Grace spoke with a hint of amusement, “Miss Evans, it seems you have a knack for tearing things apart. That’s why I made sure to bring plenty for you to tear.”

Nineteen retrieved another box from behind the sofa and placed it on the coffee table. Twelve joined her, adding to the scattering papers. Soon, the entire living room was covered in a sea of torn documents.

Jade was so furious that she felt like she might cough up blood, yet she couldn’t replace the words to respond.

Grace’s beautiful eyes sparkled with amusement as she spoke in a gentle tone, “You see, Miss Evans, it’s a futile effort to destroy the evidence. I have prepared for every contingency.”

Just as Mrs. Evans was about to interject, her mother turned to her for help. “Mom, you must do something! She has all this evidence against me. She won’t let me off easily!”

Mrs. Evans, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth and tidying her disheveled hair, regained her composure as a career woman. She touched Jade’s face and then fixed her gaze on

Grace.

“And what if you have this so–called evidence? The last time you brought a whole group of people with you, my Evans family couldn’t handle you. But today, you only brought two. Since you’re here, don’t even think about leaving the gates of my Evans family!” Mrs. Evans’s voice dripped with malice.

With that declaration, the Evans family bodyguards received a signal and quickly surrounded the living room. Thirty guards formed a protective barrier.

Chapter 13

Twelve and Nineteen positioned themselves in front of Grace, acting as her protectors amidst the encircling bodyguards. Grace, however, remained unfazed by the sudden show of force.

She chuckled lightly and fixed her cold gaze upon Mrs. Evans. “Mrs. Evans, do you truly believe that I would come unprepared?”

At that moment, the door that had been filled with servants parted, as if by their own accord. The Evans family’s expressions turned grave as they shifted their attention to the entrance.

A strikingly handsome man in a dignified military uniform strode into the room, emanating a strong aura that filled the space. Behind him, a group of well–trained individuals, identified by their uniforms as members of the JC organization, silently positioned themselves, creating a barrier around the entire hall.
