The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

Johanna’s eyes widened in feigned shock, stepping back.

“Christy, how dare you pin this on me? I’ve been confined to my room for self- reflection for the last two days.

How could I possibly have orchestrated this? I defended you out of goodwill.

I believed you were innocent, but are you trying to set me up.

”

Pretending to be heartbroken, Johanna continued, “You’ve let me down, Christy.

How could you endanger Grandpa? Do you have any conscience?

I had such faith in you.

”

Johanna’s deceptive confirmation sealed the grim fate for Christy, who couldn’t believe her supposed ally would throw her under the bus.

Hannah, observing the unfolding drama, surmised that Johanna had manipulated Christy.

However, she wasn’t inclined to let Christy off the hook.

Anyone with harmful intentions deserved accountability.

Byrum broke his silence, coughing to gain attention.

“Christy, I’d rather not add to the chaos.

It’s best if you leave voluntarily.

”

Realizing that eviction from the White family would make any return impossible, Christy lunged towards Byrum.

“Byrum, believe me! Johanna is the puppet master behind all this! Trust me, please!”

Fearing for his grandfather’s safety, Jalen swiftly moved to restrain Christy.

“Calm down! Come with me!”

“I’m not going anywhere! I’m not going anywhere!”

Struggling, Christy slumped to her knees.

“Byrum, I messed up! I should never have listened to Johanna and tampered with your medication.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

But I never intended to harm you! I’ve been part of this family for so long.

Can’t you trust me just this once? I never meant to cause you any harm.

Really!”

Byrum stared at the ground, his thoughts inscrutable.

Concerned that Christy could ruin her scheme, Johanna feigned sorrow.

“Christy, you’re the one I trust most in this family! Why are you framing me? I knew you had issues with Hannah.

I even advised you not to take it too far! I stood up for you, and now I regret it.

”

“You!”

Cornered and frantic, Christy was at a loss.

She had no evidence to prove that Johanna had manipulated her into swapping the medication.

In her desperation, she clung to Jalen’s shirt.

“Jalen, believe me!

We’ve been together for so long! Don’t you know the kind of person I am?”
