Chapter 554

Graham:

The moment of truth was here. Yuvonne had made the biggest mistake by lying about the video and the blowjob.

That alone was her first loss.

Even if I showed the video and she later claimed that I had forced it on her, people would still call her a liar.

Why the hell had she not said it earlier?

She sounded like an abuser, a liar, and a rapist who had simply denied everything.

Now, with the evidence about to be presented, it would make no difference even if she accuses me.

So I scrolled through my phone, confident that I was about to reveal the truth to everyone.

However, as I started searching for it, I felt my heart drop in my chest. For some reason, I could not find the video.

It was supposed to be on my phone. It had been on my phone.

“What is it, Graham? Why is it taking so long?” Lord William questioned.

I looked up from the screen and gave him an awkward smile before lowering my gaze again.

“Actually, there is a lot of data on my phone, so I am just skimming through it. I was not really paying attention when it downloaded, you know.” I muttered, struggling to explain myself.

“So you do not have it?” Lord William questioned.

“No, no, I had it. I mean, it is just—I did not watch it again. It was a video of my abuse, so of course I did not watch it.” I let out a small, awkward laugh.

“So I am only looking at it now. I guess it is somewhere further down.” I mumbled, my hands shaking as I went through my phone again.

But it was not there. No matter how far I scrolled, I could not find it.

Eyes began to narrow at me.

“Graham, what is going on?” my father demanded, his voice carrying a hint of irritation.

I looked up from the screen again and then lowered my gaze, avoiding them this time.

I was in a kind of desperation, and their staring was ruining my concentration.

Then I remembered the date it had been downloaded.

So I decided to search my phone by date and look for it that way.

However, around that date there was no data either.

I looked up and noticed everyone silently staring at me.

“I do not know what is going on. My phone is messing up,” I said with a strained

laugh, sniffling as panic began creeping in.

“It is okay. Go ahead. Keep looking,” my father said.

His words made me sniffle harder because I did not know where it was. I just could not find it.

“It was here. I watched it. I mean, I did not watch it like that. I opened the beginning and realized what she was doing, so I shut it off. But was here. I turned the screen toward them.

“But it is not now.”

Panic began rising inside me as people slowly gathered around.

“Huh?” Yuvonne’s small grunt made me snap my head up from my screen and turn toward her.

“Isn’t it crazy?” she began arrogantly.

“How everyone is ready to accuse me and call out my past, yet all of

you forget that he has done the same monsense too. She made my eyes widen at her audacity

“He was accused of hurting Madeline and assaulting her, yet somehow that is never mentioned. But when it comes to me, my past is always used against me.”

Yuvonne’s words made my fingers curl into tight fists.

“That is because his accusations were proven to be wrong.” Lady Abigail spoke in support of me.

I started to relax slightly.

“Really? Weren’t mine proven wrong too?” Yuvonne challenged.

“Did you not check the net when everyone defended me? There were text

messages that proved I did not ask to be raped.”

Yuvonne used a painfully emotional tone to make her words sound heavier than they were.

All eyes lowered. Even Lady Abigail looked hesitant.

“But because I am a woman, I was called ridiculous names and there was no apology made to me,” Yuvonne continued.

“In fact, the funniest thing is that he was saved from his accusations after I was

used as an excuse.” she let out a loud scoff.

“I did not feed him any cookies or candies that night,” she hissed.

“I do not have that power. The only thing my tribe and I can do is shapeshift, and even then we have to feed someone a certain kind of cookie did not feed anyone anything.” My skin stretched at how everyone was listening to her.

“But no, you all started making up different spells and powers that you cannot even prove I have.”

Yuvonne spoke as if she were deeply traumatized, tears falling down her cheeks

when the situation was not even that serious.

What was serious was my situation right now.

So I began frantically searching through my phone again. I had to prove her wrong.

She could not win against me or I would lose my mind.

“Graham, did you find the video or not?” Lady Abigail finally interrupted, clearly having had enough of Yuvonne.

She sounded more eager than anyone else for me to find that video.

“I am looking,” I replied, feeling as if my heart would stop in my chest at any moment.

“You can keep looking, but you are not going to find it because it does not exist. Now who is the liar?”

That was my beautiful Madeline speaking against me.
