The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson)

Chapter 209

In Mateo's mind. Ashley was just a girl who had dropped out of hool early to help her father at the convenience store, with no education whatsoever.

How could his son possibly make a i

move on a girl like that?

Hearing Mateo's words, Ashley's eyes dimmed slightly.

She could clearly sense the disdain Mateo had for her.

"Oneida, you really go all out for your useless brother. So what if you brought the witness here? She's already given her statement at the police station and identified Edmund. Now, you want her to change her testimony and accuse my brother? I have to wonder if you've already bribed her," Yuliana retorted methodically.

Her argument was logical, and even Nathan couldn't help but nod. "Oneida, you didn't bribe the witness, did you? If so, her words can't be trusted-

"No one bribed me. At that montent, Ashley's cold voice cut through the room.

She stood there, expressionless, seemingly calm and composed. And I don't know him."

By "him," she naturally meant Wyatt.

"This matter was already clear-cut. If Oneida hadn't threatened me, I wouldn't have come at all," Ashley said, her face showing displeasure.

"The person who tried to violate me that night was Edmund. I am certain, and the evidence is very clear. That's all I have to

say.

Having said this, Ashley looked at Oneida with a cold gaze, tilting her head slightly. I've told them what you wanted. Are you satisfied now? Can I leave?"

Oneida glared at her coldly, her fingers instinctively curling into lists.

Christopher, standing beside her, also gazed at Ashley with a dark expression.

On the other side, Wyatt let out a huge sigh of relief internally.

As expected, Ashley didn't recognize him,

All his fears were for nothing.

Feeling emboldened, Wyatt straightened his posture.

Mateo laughed heartily. "Oneida, is this your evidence? You brought her here to humiliate yourself?"

Janet also laughed, her expression relaxed. "I thought you had something different up your sleeve. Fortunately, this witness has integrity and won't be manipulated by you. She's made herself clear, so stop pestering us."

Nathan, sitting at the center, couldn't help but chime in. "Oneida you made such grand claims, and this is what you have? I see you really care about Edmund, but Wyatt is also your family. Not only did you hit him, but you also wanted to accuse him of a crime. You are vile.

"As always, I mean what I say." Nathan's eyes narrowed, his expression becoming severe. "You hit Wyatt and refused to admit your mistake, and you couldn't provide any evidence. As agreed you should leave the Chaser family!"

Leave the Chaser family?

Most people present were shocked by this,

They thought Nathan was just saying it out of anger, but now it deemed he meant it.

He truly intended to expel Oneida, the granddaughter who had just been accepted back into the family

However, for Nathan, he had had enough of Oneida.

In truth, Nathan had little affection for his granddaughter, who had spent over a decade away from the family.

But Oneida had brought countless troubles and embarrassment

Her background and lack of sophistication were a constant source of shame for him.

Since her return to the Chaser family, Oneida had already caused numerous problems.

And he feared there would be more to

So, having Oneida leave the Chaser family might actually be beneficial.

Moreover, she was already married to Jackson.

If Oneida had married a powerful man, he might have considered showing her some respect. But she married Jackson, a useless cripple.

Jackson couldn't help the Chaser family and only added to Nathan's humiliation.

It was best to cut ties with them early, avoiding future troubles.

Everyone assumed Nathan was saying it out of anger, but he was very clear-headed.

As the family head, he was adept at weighing the pros and cons.

At this moment, Oneida looked at Nathan, her beautiful face seemingly covered in a faint, cold light.

To her, whether she stayed in the Chaser family or not, it didn't matter.

She could live well even if she severed ties with the Chaser family.

But she couldn't let Edmund be wronged.

She had promised Edmund to clear his name and prove his innocence.

So, she had to make Ashley tell the truth

Her intuition told her that Ashley wasn't telling the whole truth.

She was hiding something.

At their first meeting, when Ashley heard Edmund's name, her eyes showed very complex emotions, not just simple hatred. but something more.

Moreover, Oneida was convinced that the one who violated Ashley was Wyatt.

She needed to reveal the truth, have Wyatt punished, and ensure that Edmund's suffering was avenged.

Oneida tightened her fists slightly and turned her gaze to Ashley

She knew that using conventional methods, Ashley would remain as stubborn as before, refusing to say anything

So, she had to resort to meoventional means.

"Ashley." She suddenly called out her name.

"Still not giving up? She's made it very clear, and you're still pestering her. Haven't you had enough? Edmund did it. This is crystal clear. Stop pestering the victim!"

Seeing Oneida's persistence, Rachel couldn't help but mock loudly.

Just send the victim back. Oneida, you should compensate her instead of questioning her further. The result will be the same no matter how much you ask!" Mateo looked at Oneida with disdain, his eyes filled with contempt. Oneida ignored their words,

She kept her gaze fixed on Ashley.

Ashley, hearing her name called, instinctively turned to look at Oneida.

Their eyes locked.

Ashley found herself staring into Oneida's exceptionally beautiful and deep eyes.

Those profound pupils seemed like bottomless pools, capable of drawing her in.

For a moment, Ashley was completely stunned.

She felt as if she had lost her consciousness and all sensation.

Like a puppet, her eyes fixated solely on Oneida's.

Those eyes captivated her deeply.

Seeing Ashley staring at her without moving, Oneida knew she had caught her.

Her lips curled into a faint smile, and she asked in an unusually soft and gentle voice, "Ashley, was it really Edmund who violated you that night?"
