Chapter 270

Chapter 270:

“Ryan, you have to help me! These are all lies—lies, I tell you! This is all Jenessa’s doing! She’s framing me for something I didn’t do! Ryan, please! I can’t go to jail p>

Ryan looked at Maisie with a complicated expression. Taking a deep breath, he sternly asked, “Maisie, tell me the truth. Did you orchestrate the kidnapping p>

Maisie’s heart clenched painfully at his words. She swallowed hard, forcing herself to reply, “I didn’t, Ryan. You have to believe me. Those chat records are forged! How could I possibly do something so horrible? You know me p>

As she spoke, she looked at Ryan pleadingly.

No matter how solid Jenessa’s so-called evidence seemed, Maisie couldn’t care less. As long as Ryan believed her, that evidence meant nothing.

What she feared most was losing his trust. If he truly believed she was behind the plot, even with her parents’ backing, her dreams of marrying Ryan would be shattered—no matter how much she managed to avoid prison.

Therefore, stabilizing Ryan’s faith in her was now her top priority.

Ryan stared at Maisie, his troubled thoughts clouding his ability to think clearly.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and said, “Alright, I trust you p>

Maisie’s eyes lit up with joy. It felt as though the heavy burden on her shoulders had been suddenly lifted.

If Ryan believed her, she thought, everything would be fine.

Jenessa, upon hearing Ryan’s decision, was seething with anger. Her fists clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.

Then again, she shouldn’t have expected anything less from Ryan, who was so determined to protect Maisie.

Unexpectedly, Ryan continued, “So please go with the police, Maisie. I’ll find you the best lawyer and prove your innocence p>

A stunned silence fell over the room. No one had expected Ryan to allow Maisie to go with the police.

His earlier words seemed to suggest he would protect her, and this sudden shift left everyone speechless.

Maisie, still gripping Ryan’s sleeve, was completely shocked.

Did he seriously just ask her to go with the police? How could he say that?

If she were escorted out by the police, her status in high society would be ruined.

Reflecting on her illustrious career and the impending fashion show, Maisie could no longer contain her emotions.

Being apprehended in front of such a crowd would ruin her future completely.

Desperately clutching Ryan’s arm, nearly on her knees, Maisie implored him, “Ryan, I can’t go with the police. You have to help me! Please p>

Ryan calmly reassured her, gently patting her shoulder.

“Maisie, if you’re innocent, there’s no need to fear. I won’t stand by and let you be wrongly accused p>

Jenessa’s laughter suddenly rang out.

Despite the evidence, Ryan still steadfastly believed in Maisie’s innocence. It seemed he truly loved her.

Jenessa had heard enough of Ryan defending Maisie and turned to leave.

At that moment, the officers moved in, ready to escort Maisie away.

“Miss Powell, please cooperate and come with us. We can discuss everything at the station,” one of them urged calmly.
