Astrid was already drunk, and her legs gave way. The next second, she
collapsed into an awkward squat, her skirt riding up in an embarrassing display. The butler immediately looked away, worried that he might get an eye infection from what he saw.
Just then, a splash of grimy yellow liquid came pouring down from above, soaking Astrid completely from head to toe and sending a chill down her spine. Soon after, a revolting smell filled the air. She lifted her arm to sniff it and almost vomited from the strong odor. It was enough to make her feel queasy! What was that smell?! It was so pungent and unpleasant that it made her feel sick to her stomach.
Astrid howled angrily at the sky. "Who?! Who did this? Who?!"
"Heh, who asked you to keep causing a scene here and ruining the peace?" Sasha slightly lifted her chin and confidently strolled out of the main gate. "Look, even the heavens find you annoying, tossing water to wake you up. Shut your mouth and go back to where you belong."
"It was you! You threw it on me!" Astrid glared furiously, her teeth chattering from the cold wind.
"How can you be so sure it was me? Rain falls from the sky, so why can't it rain sewage? Some people seem to attract bad luck on their own. Maybe one day, they'll get struck by lightning while strolling down the street."
Sasha liked sauerkraut and kept jars of it in the pantry. The fermented sauerkraut water from last year finally came in handy. At first, she thought about using actual sewage to throw on Astrid, but since it was her own courtyard and not worth messing up for someone so insignificant, she held back.
"Sewage... Sewage water?! Ugh..." Astrid went pale and covered her chest as she uncontrollably gagged.
"You know exactly what you did. We haven't called you out on it, but you should have just stayed quiet instead of making a scene here. Chairman Thompson doesn't even want to see your father anymore, let alone you. So, just go away and don't make a bigger fool of yourself." Sasha pinched her nose in disgust as she spoke.
Astrid's heart sank as she realized she was about to leave empty-handed. Frustrated and embarrassed, she angrily spat on the ground before reluctantly departing from Thompson's place, looking unkempt and smelling unpleasant.
"No wonder..."
Having listened to Mila's story, Wyatt had a sudden realization. "I was curious why the Iverson family seemed secure, and then suddenly Lance's son-in-law became the focus of the investigation. So, was Justin behind all this?"
"Yeah, Justin orchestrated it all. It was his way of seeking revenge for Amelia and showing the Iverson family that none of our children should be messed with."
Wyatt's expression relaxed as he fell silent, lost in thought.
Mila watched his face closely and felt a small shift in his attitude toward Justin.

Wyatt's brows furrowed again. "But
isn't it a bit off? Axel was the one who om
made the arrest If everything was
Justin's setup, how did Axel end up
involved? It would make sense if
Bella arranged it." The content is on
