Isabel, taken aback by Sophia’s misunderstanding, felt a surge of frustration “Grandma, how can you trust Willum so blindly? My dad is your son, too! You know his character! How could be deceive you?
“It’s William who’s trying to stir up trouble. Instead of blaming him, you’re unfairly accusing my dad!
“Last night, it was the neighboring property that caught fire, yet you refuse to believe this and insist it was ours. Your intentions are so obviously
malicious.
Tabel, you have some nerve to talk to grandma like that!” Guinevere interrupted, her voice sharp.
Isabel stood her ground and looked at her. “Guinevere, you claim without any doubt that the fire was ours and that we are hiding it. How about we make a wager?”
Fine! What do you want to bet? Guinevere replied confidently. She felt sure of her information; a fire had indeed occurred last night, and Isabel was bound to lose!
“If it turns out to be true, my dad and I will leave the company. If it isn’t true. William must apologize to my dad, and you Guinevere, will kneel before me and slap your own face ten times, admitting that you were wrong!:
“Label, how can you even suggest such a thing. “At the mention of such terms, William feh trapped, there was no way he would agree.

“I will definitely remember, but first, we need grandma’s approval. Grandma, will you witness
Sophia’s expression hardened; she did not want to be a witness. “Please, grandma, just agree!” Guinevere urged, looking at Sophia
“Fine.” With
Sophia’s approval, lubel opened the office door to find a crowd of management staff waiting outside.
“Isabel, what’s going on? Guinevere asked.
“Not only Sophia, but also the company’s management is here to witness. If it was indeed our warehouse that burned and we tried to hide it, then we will leave the company. Is that acceptable to you??
“That would make me very happy!” Guinevere quickly responded: She saw Isabel’s boldness as nothing more than a show, believing it would not intimidate her. With so many people present, she hoped they would witness Isabel being expelled.
“Then, let’s go to the warehouse. There, we will find out the truth!” Babel declared,
William was also curious about what would happen. Steadying Sophia, he said. “Mom, let’s go see. This issue affects the company, and you right to know”
“Certainly!” Sophia agreed, leaning on her cane as they made their way to the warehouse.

Guinevere shot a nasty look at Isabel, confident that signs of last night’s fire would still be visible, and even Isabel’s quick actions couldn’t cover everything up.
When they arrived at the warehouse, Samuel exclaimed, “Mom, look here! The warehouse looks untouched. Where is the supposed fire! This is all alie; what could William be scheming!”
Both Samuel and Guinevere were in shock. Guinevere went inside and saw the workers carefully packing goods. There was no sign of a fire at all. “How can this be.. David clearly said there was a fire..”
“David told you about a blaze last night, but everything looks perfectly fine now, doesn’t it?” Tubel said, standing beside Guinevere.
“Tuubel, what are you planning?” Guinevere clenched her fists, glaring angrily.

“Last night, everyone saw the flames!”

Isabel turned to Sophia and added, “Grandma, my dad runs the company well, while William and Guinevere are the ones harassing us. You need to be fair! I suspect William knows more than he’s leuing on.
“Last night, two guys did try to start a fire in our warehouse, but we caught them. I have not mentioned this until now, but William and Guinevere rushed to blame us.
“William, are you aware of this? Are those two involved with you? I never imagined you would put the company’s interests at risk just to get rid of my dad and me! That’s simply cruel!”
Isabel’s words stirred irritation in William. “Isabel, stop making unfounded accusations Why would I ever send someone to harm the company! A fire would only bring lou, which benefits me in no way! Mom, don’t believe her
“Enough!” Sophia shouted, her eyes firmly on William and Guinevere. “You two are absolutely shameless, causing me so much distress while wrongly blaming Samuel and Isabel—have you truly lost your minds??”
“Mom. 1-

As William and Guinevere prepared to leave, Isabel called after them. “Wait! Guinevere’s expression turned dark; she had anticipated this escalation from Isabel
