Yasmine looked calm and collected, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with her. Nathan couldn't help but take a second glance at her. However, he shot at disgusted glance at Helen-so young, yet so calculating. The Flynn family was done for. "No! You can't call the police! If she goes to the police station, it's all over for Helen!" Selena's face flushed with anger. Immediately, she turned her attention to Yasmine. "Yasmine, you can't do this to Helen. You were once her sister-in-law. Don't be so heartless. Besides, you won't lose anything by helping." Yasmine fixed her gaze on Selena and replied coldly, "Helen never considered how good I've been to her before. She made mistakes. I've already given her chances."
Yasmine's face was set with an undeniable firmness, causing Helen to panic completely. She hadn't expected the incident to be exposed so soon, nor had she thought Yasmine would have recorded proof. Tears streamed down her face as she grabbed Xavier's hand. "Xavier, you have to save me! Don't let her take me to the police!"
Yonas definitely wouldn't help her; the only person who could save her was Xavier.
At a loss for words, she suddenly pointed to someone entering the room. "It was Yvette! She taught me how to do this! I never intended to do it. She told me that if Mr. Russell saw Yasmine with another guy, he'd realize what she really is and wouldn't protect her anymore." Yasmine turned to the arriving Yvette, and so did Xavier's gaze.
"Helen, what are you talking about?" Yvette's eyes were deep and intense as she fixed her stare on Helen.
She walked back to Xavier's side with feigned innocence, saying, "Xavier, it's all my fault. Helen is right. She told me about her plan to deal with Yasmine. I didn't take it seriously, and if I had just stopped her back then, I might have prevented this from happening to Seeing her act so understanding, Xavier shot a displeased look at Helen. "You always mess things up. Yvette is definitely not like that. Helen, if you've made a mistake, I'll DramaBox
Yasmine."

plead I for you, but you can't drag someone else down with you."
Yasmine looked at Yvette, who appeared to be pitiful. "So, are you saying you didn't deliberately trip the waiter, leading to the wine spilling on Yoselin's dress?"
Yvette's expression changed, wondering how Yasmine found out. "Yasmine, I don't know what you're talking about."
Yasmine pulled out the pictures that Chuck had taken earlier and placed them right in front of her. "You're not going to say this picture is fake, are you?"
Helen's eyes widened as she understood that Yasmine had already gathered all the evidence. Her heart raced, and she clenched her fists, the pain in her palms jolting her back to reality.
Yvette immediately approached Yoselin, her voice filled with false guilt. "Yoselin, I want to apologize. I didn't mean to ruin your dress. The event hadn't even started, and I accidentally spilled something. I was scared you'd get angry and blame me, so I didn't say anything." Yoselin quickly hid behind Yasmine, refusing to acknowledge her. "I don't believe anything you say now. How do I know you're not lying? You probably just want to team

Yvette was determined to stay out of the feud, but she knew she couldn't afford to offend the Flynn family, especially Helen and Selena. "Yoselin, I'm speaking from the heart," she glanced at Yasmine, "I believe Helen didn't mean any harm. After all, Yasmine and Mr. Russell seem quite close, and given that Yasmine used to be Helen's sister-in-law, it's natural for her to feel a bit upset. Yvette's words flowed smoothly. Helen snapped, "Upset? I never think of her as
"Helen, I know you're upset, and you're just saying hurtful things. But right now, Yasmine is about to call the police, so you should just admit your mistake, Yvette quickly interrupted Helen.
Helen shot Yvette a furious glare but realized she was being given a way out. Reluctantly, she turned to Yasmine, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have..."
Yasmine could see that Helen's words weren't genuine. Since this was the Russell family's event, and she was just his invited companion, she didn't want to escalate Chapter 39

things, especially since Nathan looked visibly displeased.
"Since Ms. Flynn has acknowledged her mistake, I can let this slide for now. But I hope you keep your distance from me in the future. Otherwise, I can easily turn this video. over to the police," Yasmine said sternly. Yonas glanced at Helen and Yvette, his tone icy as he said, "Yasmine is my guest. I share the responsibility for what happened here, Ms. Flynn, think twice before you act; you don't want to do something you'll regret." Yasmine felt a warm glow in her heart. All she received from the Flynn family was blame and insults, while Yonas repeatedly stood up for her.
"Mr. Nathan Russell, I apologize for the trouble today," Yasmine said.
Nathan nodded and glanced at Xavier, "Xavier, I believe you have some matters to attend to. You're excused from this banquet."
Xavier's face turned pale, and he quickly replied, "I apologize for the disruption. I'll make sure to visit another day."
Selena looked at Xavier with confusion, while Helen shot a resentful glare at Yasmine, her eyes puffy and red.
Only Yvette exchanged a knowing glance with Yasmine, understanding that Xavier didn't have any urgent business; it was just Nathan expressing his displeasure with the Flynn family's recent behavior, giving them a graceful exit.
As the Flynn family reached the banquet entrance, they saw Nathan and Yoselin descending the stairs, while Yonas walked alongside Yasmine. The grand hall sparkled with golden lights, casting reflections on the marble floor, and the towering wine. pyramid made of delicate glasses added a lavish touch. Yonas and Yasmine looked like a perfect couple, with elegance and charm that turned heads.
Xavier halted, taken aback by the captivating scene. Yasmine glimmered with a radiant aura, her commanding presence softened by her gentle demeanor. Without realizing it, he clenched his fists, feeling that this moment was slipping away from him. Noticing Xavier's agitation, Yvette felt anxious but didn't know what to say; after all, Xavier was her fiancé.
Once outside, Helen felt a chill run down her spine, her frustration boiling over as she questioned Xavier, "What's with the urgent business? Can't Mom and I s

Yvette kept her head down, thinking how utterly clueless and foolish Helen was.
The departure of the Flynn family caused barely a ripple as if they'd never been there. Many influential families in Soucrity were present, and there were plenty of important people around.
