Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Ophelia Warren’s Persona Collapses

Recognizing Ophelia Warren’s voice, netizens were utterly shocked. What was going on?

But what was even more jaw-dropping was the content of the conversation that followed.

Ophelia Warren had someone teach Sienna Everett a lesson?

And took the opportunity to lock Sienna Everett in a bathroom??

"Did Sienna Everett find you out?"

"No, Ms. Warren, don’t worry. I destroyed the restaurant’s security cameras ahead of time. Even if Sienna Everett tries to check the footage, she won’t find me, and she definitely won’t find out it was you."

"Good. Be careful for the next few days. Even though Sienna Everett has been in the hospital recently, you need to be on your guard. Don’t get caught, and don’t get me involved!"

This recorded conversation was like cold water splashing into a pot of boiling oil, instantly causing the netizens’ emotions to explode.

[Holy shit! I’m not hearing things, am I? That’s Ophelia Warren’s voice, isn’t it?!]

[It’s her! It’s definitely Ophelia Warren! I just compared it to her voice from her old variety shows, and it’s exactly the same as the one in this audio clip!]

[Listen closely, that guy named Frank Lennon even called her "Ms. Warren." There’s no escaping it, it’s absolutely Ophelia Warren! If it’s not, I’ll eat my hat!]

[Locking Sienna Everett in a bathroom to teach her a lesson? That’s intentional assault, right? That’s a criminal offense!]

[Weird. Didn’t Ophelia Warren say she really liked Sienna Everett and wanted to be friends with her? Why would she hurt her like this? Is she that two-faced?]

[Is that even a question? It’s obviously a fake persona she put on! Gentle and kind on the surface, but doing such vile and malicious things behind the scenes... I can’t believe Ophelia Warren is that kind of person!]

[Smiling to your face while stabbing you in the back. Just thinking about it is terrifying!]

[Damn it, just a minute ago people were saying Sienna Everett was targeting and bullying Ophelia Warren. It’s clearly Sienna Everett who’s been targeted and hurt!]

The gossiping netizens all recognized Ophelia Warren’s voice in the audio clip.

As for Ophelia Warren’s fans, they recognized their idol’s voice even more clearly. They were floored, as if struck by lightning. One second they were viciously cursing Sienna Everett, wishing her dead, and the next they were all standing there stunned, like idiots.

’Ophelia is so gentle and kind, always thinking of others. How could she privately hire a thug to teach Sienna Everett a lesson?’

’Using such despicable, low-class methods, and even cautiously telling the thug not to implicate her?’

’With such a huge contrast, is this still the gentle little fairy they adored?’

’No, this can’t be real!’

But the recorded conversation was laid out before them as irrefutable proof. Ophelia Warren’s fans couldn’t even brainwash themselves into disbelief.

The online onlookers had already flooded the comments on Ophelia Warren’s X account, demanding she come out and respond to the conversation.

[Miss Ophelia Warren, you kept saying how much you liked Sienna Everett and wanted to be her friend, but then you stab her in the back. You’re just so gentle, such a little fairy!]

[Ophelia Warren, you said in the recording, "Sienna Everett has been in the hospital recently." What does that mean? Did Sienna Everett really get hurt because of you? Stop playing dead and give everyone an explanation!]

[You also said "don’t get me involved" in the recording. Looks like you know what you did was shameful! Afraid of being exposed and letting everyone see your true colors, are you?!]

...

「In Ophelia Warren’s apartment.」

Ophelia Warren, dressed in a soft silk nightgown, leisurely poured a glass of red wine and took a sip, in a rather good mood.

She was the one who had people post those online exposés about Sienna Everett bullying her.

Seeing the netizens’ praise for her, Ophelia Warren’s expression didn’t change much. Gentle, kind, talented, elegant—she had seen far too much of this kind of praise.

But when she saw the netizens’ insults directed at Sienna Everett, Ophelia Warren’s lips curled into a smile.

It was even more interesting than seeing herself being praised.

Her happiness didn’t last long, however, as she soon saw that Sienna Everett had posted a response on X.

Ophelia Warren laughed dismissively. ’Sienna, how could you possibly respond to me?’

She clicked on Sienna Everett’s response on X. It was an audio clip.

Ophelia Warren casually hit play.

"Frank Lennon, about that matter a few days ago where I had you teach Sienna Everett a lesson..."

Hearing just the first half of the sentence, Ophelia Warren’s face changed abruptly. The red wine in her hand spilled, and the look of cozy contentment on her face vanished in an instant.

’This is... her own voice!’

’It’s the conversation between her and Frank Lennon!’

’Sienna Everett tracked it back to Frank Lennon? Did she find out more about me?’

With the matter so suddenly and unexpectedly exposed, Ophelia Warren read the netizens’ questions and rebukes. Her expression turned cold and hard, without a trace of her gentle smile.

Then, her phone began to ring.

The caller ID read: Miles Everett.

Ophelia Warren squeezed her eyes shut, fighting to control her emotions. She restrained her hand, resisting the urge to throw something to vent her frustration, and steadily set down her wine glass before answering the call.

Miles Everett’s incredulous voice came from the other end of the line. "Ophelia, you... how could you do that to Sienna Everett?"

He wasn’t shocked that Sienna Everett had been hurt.

He was shocked because this was so drastically different from the impression Ophelia Warren had always given him.

Ophelia Warren took two deep breaths, her tone sounding resolute and unyielding. "Mr. Everett, I didn’t do it. There must be some misunderstanding."

"You’re saying... a misunderstanding?"

"Yes. I’ll clarify this immediately. Mr. Everett, you have to believe me."

"..." Miles Everett fell into a hesitant silence, not speaking for a long time.

’Could something like this really be a misunderstanding?’

’But the Ophelia Warren he knew was truly wonderful, not like someone who would do such a thing.’

Miles Everett was silent for a good while before saying, conflicted, "You... should post a clarification."

After hanging up, Ophelia Warren sneered. Miles Everett was still useful to her. She didn’t care if others believed her or not, as long as Miles Everett still did.

Ophelia Warren composed a post on X and published it.

[I’m sorry. I really like Sienna, and I’ve always wanted to be friends with her. I don’t know what’s going on with the conversation in this recording. Perhaps it’s a prank someone pulled by deliberately imitating my voice... I’m very sorry for causing such a big stir!]

When Ophelia Warren’s response finally came, the online onlookers immediately swarmed to see it.

But after reading it, their anger flared up instantly.

[??? Do you take us for idiots? That’s the lamest excuse ever!]

[Lies! Ophelia Warren is lying! I’m a server at that restaurant. The day Sienna Everett came to eat, she really was locked in the bathroom by a suspicious person, and our restaurant’s security cameras also suddenly broke that day. All of this matches the content of the recording perfectly! How could this possibly be some prankster imitating Ophelia Warren’s voice? All these things actually happened, it was definitely not a prank! If you don’t believe me, you can come to our restaurant and ask any server!]

[Damn, at a time like this, Ophelia Warren, you’re still lying and making excuses. You’re so fake! And to think I used to believe you were gentle and kind. I must have been blind! Unfollowing!!]

Amid the uproar, Miles Everett suddenly reposted Ophelia Warren’s X post, adding his own comment:

[Everyone, please calm down. The Ophelia Warren I know has always been gentle and wonderful. I believe that there really must be some misunderstanding.]

Seeing Miles Everett’s statement, the netizens were stunned for a moment, and then they became even more enraged.

’What kind of bullshit is this?’

[I fucking give up. The one who got hurt was Sienna Everett, and instead of speaking up for her, you’re defending the perpetrator, Ophelia Warren??]

[No wonder Miles Everett and Ophelia Warren are friends. Birds of a feather flock together!]

[Miles Everett, I used to respect you because you’re a Restorer, but now I see all you Everett are the same! Tell us, did you abuse Sienna Everett when you were in the Everett Family!]

[You didn’t show up when Sienna Everett was getting flamed, but you crawl out of the woodwork when Ophelia Warren is getting flamed. Heh, I’m starting to think you’re Ophelia’s brother, not hers!]

[Miles Everett, you and Ophelia Warren are tied together now. You can both go to hell!]
