“But I thought everyone said Mr. Spencer’s wife pushed her? Skyla never denied it!”
“Derrick’s push was brutal… She even started bleeding.”
Skyla’s face was deathly pale. Her lips quivered before she suddenly raised her voice. “It was so chaotic that night.
I couldn’t tell who pushed me, but someone did! I wasn’t lying! I just didn’t see it clearly!”

Everyone was engrossed in the scandal. Some were still watching the video, while others were already on the PDF, taking their time to go through every detail.
But without exception, everyone’s reaction was the same.
They clicked their tongues, shook their heads, and directed disdainful looks at Skyla and Aiden.
