Lily Bai, Stop Pretending You Don't Know Me

Minister Zhuo's cold, stern gaze fell on Cindy Zhu, who was at a loss for words. Just as he was about to speak, Leon Wan suddenly stepped forward and said, "Brother-in-law! The matter of the eldest miss entering the General's Manor was confirmed by Cecilia Chen herself! If not for her word, I wouldn't have dared report this to you!"

Eric Chen, ever the clever one, immediately chimed in, "That's right! She even said that if you need her to testify, she's willing to come herself!"

Minister Zhuo hesitated again upon hearing this.

Leon Wan was a man who knew how to handle things with tact.

He was unlikely to team up with Cindy to do something so reckless.

"If that's the case, bring her here for questioning!" Minister Zhuo ordered.

"Yes, sir!" Eric Chen hurried out.

Then Grace was completely thrown off.

Eric Chen and Cecilia Chen were already working together to this extent.

She could come and testify?

Does that mean she already knows her true identity?

Cecilia Chen was no pushover—she'd definitely find a way to make this stick!

What should I do, what should I do?

......

Grace thought, if only she got robbed on the way here...

Or maybe a rock could just fall from somewhere and hit her dead.

But, of course, none of that happened.

Not long after, she arrived.

The moment she walked in, her eyes landed on Grace, and a flash of deep jealousy flickered across her gaze.

Lily Bai was actually the Zhu family's eldest miss!

No wonder she was so beautiful and so talented!

But she'd heard about Grace's reputation in Danyang City.

She also knew all about the grudge between the Zhu Family and the General's Manor.

If the Zhu family found out she'd fallen for Evan Xiao and even went to be his maid, she'd never recover her reputation!

So what if she's the Zhu family's eldest miss?

Now, her time is up!

Cecilia Chen smiled, standing in the center of the hall, and bowed, "Greetings, Dowager Lady Evelyn Zhu, Prime Minister Zhu."

"No need for formalities!" said the Dowager. "You're Cecilia Chen, aren't you?"

"Yes, that's me!" Cecilia replied.

"I heard from Eric Chen that you know my granddaughter?" The Dowager pointed at Grace and asked.

Cecilia Chen turned to Grace, looked her up and down, then said, "Yes! I know her, and we're very familiar!"

Grace seemed annoyed again, striding over to Cecilia and asking, "Excuse me, I've never met you. How do you know me? And you say we're very familiar?"

Cecilia gave her a smug smile and said, "Lily Bai! Stop pretending you don't know me! I really didn't expect you to be the famous Zhu family's eldest miss!"

"So you're the crazy woman who told Eric Chen I was Evan Xiao's head maid?" Grace demanded.

"That's right! I said it! If you could do it, why should I be afraid to say it?" Cecilia shot back, full of challenge.

Today, she was determined to expose all of Grace's dark history at the General's Manor!

How she seduced the general, snuck into his bed, acted shameless—she planned to spill it all!

She wasn't just going to tell the Zhu family—she'd let all of Danyang City and the entire Blue Moon Kingdom know about Grace's disgrace!

The Zhu family would definitely execute her!

"I'm not someone you can slander at will!" Grace declared righteously. "You'd better have solid evidence today, or else—I mean, my father definitely won't let you off!"

With that, she turned to her father and asked, "Right, Dad?"

Minister Zhuo ignored her.

"Hmph!" Cecilia Chen sneered. "Evidence? I'm the witness! I saw you and the general doing indecent things in the study with my own eyes!"
