Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 99

Alicia was stunned, and then she said, "I hope that you are innocent, but we can't fool anyone, can we?"

"You are right!" I smiled. I just stood there and watched Alicia making phone calls one after another, but there were only busy tones. No one answered.

I kept smiling, walking to the center of the crowd and saying, "Alicia, you've made 56 phone calls. It took you nearly an hour." I walked towards Alicia, showing her the timer on my phone.

Alicia became anxious, "He must have not seen it. One more call and he'll answer!"

Just as Alicia was about to dial again, I took her phone. Alicia's face darkened and she was about to get it back. I hid the phone behind me and said in a high voice, "It's been an hour, Alicia. How much time do you want to waste? It's working hours. Besides, Kieran's time is precious. Can you afford any more waste of time?"

I smiled, looking Alicia in the eye. She was blue in the face, dying to curse me. However, everyone present began complaining because they had been waiting for too long. After all, the nude pictures were just something they could gossip about. It was one thing to watch a drama, but it was quite another if they didn't have enough time for their work because of it.

"Seriously? She made more than 50 calls, and still, no one answered!"

"It's been more than an hour. I have a lot of things to do. If I can't finish them, I'll have to work overtime again. How annoying!"

"I also have a lot of things to do, but I've been wasting my time here watching her making phone calls. And there were only busy tones!"

"Alicia, you said that I was your dearest sister. You wanted Kieran to forgive me, and you'd remove the misunderstandings. However, you spent one hour making 56 calls. Why do I feel like that you tried so hard to prove that I was lying?" I moved closer to Alicia and continued, "Alicia, do you hate me so much that you're acting like this?"

"You misunderstand me, Rachael. I'm doing this for you, and I don't want anyone to...."

"Be fooled!" I interrupted Alicia and nodded, showing that I understood her, "I know that you don't want anyone to be fooled, so you must dig out all of my scandals. I understand, but...." I turned my eyes upon Alicia's eyes, "Alicia, how did you get this man's number?"

Hearing this, everyone present thought, 'Right. How did Alicia get the phone number of Rachael's friend with benefits?'

I squinted and smiled faintly, "Is this man also your boyfriend?"

"What are you talking about? How could I know him? It's even more impossible for him to be my boyfriend. I have only one boyfriend, who is Marlon!" Alicia explained with an angry face.

I smiled. What I wanted was for her to deny their relationship in such a panic. Alicia was greedy and vain, and she was a gold digger. Therefore, as Marlon's fiancée, she wouldn't allow Marlon to be dissatisfied with her for this, nor would she allow any rumors to reach Marlon's ears.

The more panicked Alicia felt, the more fun it would be. I could even imagine her not being able to utter a single word later.

"Rachael, you've done something wrong. Stop slandering me. If Marlon misunderstands me, I'll be in trouble!" Alicia said with a stern face.

I nodded, "I don't think that this man is your boyfriend. You have Mr. Redford as your fiancé. And you are too good for a man like Kaleb!"

"That's right. Marlon is outstanding. I only love him!" Alicia seized the opportunity to express her faithfulness.

"I believed you when you said that you didn't know him. However, since you are not close to him or a friend of his, why do you have his phone number? Besides, you dialed it when it was not in your Contacts!"

Alicia froze. She had denied it too fast to think of the number.

I smiled. For a moment, I felt a bloodthirsty demon coming to my mind, "Alicia, you got a phone number of one of the men in the nude pictures from somewhere and kept making phone calls after 56 missed ones. Could it be that you knew this man and colluded with him to set me up?" I said as if I was joking, but my voice was so loud that everyone present could hear me.

"What's wrong with Miss Alicia? She came here early in the morning, saying that she had forgiven Rachael, but it turns out that she was trying to prove that these photos were real!"

"Right. My own sister always spares no effort to defend me, and she never speaks to me like this!"

"Everyone said that Miss Alicia is gentle, virtuous, kind and lively. But I think that she's obsessed and stubborn. She's completely different from what others said!"

"Exactly! After all the reasons Rachael had given, she still didn't stop calling the man. She's so desperate to prove that Rachael is living a life of debauchery and that Rachael is having an affair with her fiancé. What good is it for her?"

"In my opinion, Alicia is trying to slander Rachael. After all, she's just Rachael's half-sister."

Everyone looked at Alicia with contempt. Alicia felt anxious. Just as she was about to explain, a female colleague shouted, "Look at the trending hashtag in the first place in Baidu (an internet search engine)! Hurry!" Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes upon their computers or phones. I was just feeling easy and playing with my phone.

"Isn't this Mr. Night, the god in the photoshop field? He has analyzed every detail of the nude pictures and explained all the traces left by him!"

"Heavens, Mr. Night is the best of the best in the photoshop field. He never appeared online or did anything to build his reputation. Many celebrities tried to pay him a large sum of money to photoshop their photos, but he refused. I have never expected that he would state the nude pictures of Rachael!"

"Right, it's so rare. The statement has elaborated every trace left on the nude pictures. Look, it also says that the lights and the shadows are not in the same direction and that Rachael doesn't change her expression. It's well-founded. No wonder he's the god. I believed him when he said that the photos are false!"

"I also believe him. He's my idol. I believe every single word he says. These photos are fake!"

"Refresh the page. Mr. Night has sent another post!" Another female colleague shouted, raising her tablet with excitement, "Look, Mr. Night has restored all those photos!"

"Heavens, he restored them. Mr. Night is awesome. The nude pictures are fake!"

Everyone was speaking with excitement. I smiled, walking towards Alicia, "Alicia, you are so sexy in the photos with Kaleb. I wonder how Mr. Redford will react when he sees them!" As I spoke, I turned my phone to Alicia.

Alicia's face turned pale.
