"No!" Eunice screamed desperately, but all her cries were in vain. She was still dragged away.
With Eunice's hysterics finally gone, the entire hall fell into an eerie silence. Every guest waited with bated breath, eager to see what would happen next.
Watching Eunice being taken away while Clara apologized to Zoe, Bruce was caught in this humiliating scene. With no dignity left to remain, overwhelmed by shame and agitation, his blood pressure soared and he collapsed unconscious.
Seeing this, Clara and the Evans brothers immediately rushed to Bruce's side.
With Eunice's matter settled, Zoe's sharp gaze immediately fell upon Sophia and the rest.
Rick was the first to bear the brunt of Zoe's piercing gaze. Yet, with his authority still intact, he wouldn't be intimidated by a mere young girl.
With a frosty expression, he declared, "Zoe, even if you were framed in the Marlowe Group incident, that doesn't justify you acting so arrogantly. In my eyes, you're simply unworthy of Shawn."
"Exactly. Even if you have the backing of Eminence Nexus, it means nothing. Only the White family and the Ludwig family are a perfect match," someone chimed in.
At that moment, they couldn't afford to back down; otherwise, no one would be able to keep Zoe in check in the future.
Zoe suddenly sneered.
Her cold sneer was like a spark, instantly igniting everyone's fury. Rick demanded sharply, "What are you laughing at?"
With the elders backing her up, Sophia cut in, "Zoe, you don't truly love Shawn. If you did, you wouldn't always be causing him trouble and dragging his name through the mud.
"Only I truly love Shawn. Not only can I help him with his political career, but I can also support the Ludwig family's business endeavors. We're a match made in heaven."
Zoe sneered again, "Don't push your pipe dreams too far. Shifting all the blame onto Eunice won't cover up your crimes."
Sophia's heart skipped a beat. She thought, 'Does she actually find some evidence?'
Zoe retorted, "Truth will out, Rick. Am I right?" She swept her gaze across the other elders. "And the rest of you. At your age, instead of focusing on your own duties, you're busy meddling in someone else's marriage. Seems you have too much time on your hands."
The thoroughly rebuked elders flushed crimson with humiliation, each feeling utterly mortified.
Sophia scoffed, "Zoe, stop bluffing. If you really had evidence, we'd be behind bars already. So why waste your breath with empty threats?"
Zoe fixed Sophia with an icy, piercing stare.
Under Zoe's glare, Sophia's head snapped down, her earlier defiance snuffed out in an instant.
"I'm sparing you out of respect for the White-Ludwig ties," Zoe said. She used to show no mercy to the Whites or Sophia, but now, with Shawn by her side, she was also protecting the Ludwigs.
Seeing Zoe invoke the Ludwig family's name, Rick was pissed off. "You insolent girl. Do you really think no one can discipline you? Guards!"
Eric and the White brothers immediately restrained Rick.
Without another word, Zoe sent all the White family's dirty laundry straight to the White brothers' phones.
The three received the notifications and immediately pulled out their phones. Upon seeing the alleged evidence, they broke into a cold sweat.
"Thank you for your mercy," Samuel said with a grave expression.
Without another word, Zoe turned to leave, her goal for the day accomplished.
Rory walked alongside Zoe, while several other Eminence Nexus members formed a protective perimeter behind her, instantly on high alert whenever anyone came near.
Still defiant, Rick attempted to confront Zoe. Left with no choice, Samuel handed the evidence to him. With just one glance at it, Rick's face instantly turned ashen.
