Chapter 18: Unveiling the Past
As Jane dug deeper into Lucy's past, she uncovered a series of scandals that painted a disturbing picture. Lucy had been involved in several high-profile incidents that were swept under the rug due to her family's influence.
One of the scandals involved a former boyfriend of Lucy's. He had accused Lucy of manipulation and deceit, claiming that she had used him to climb the social ladder. However, the case was quickly dismissed, and the boyfriend was discredited, thanks to Lucy's family's connections.
Another scandal involved a business deal. Lucy's family owned a large corporation, and Lucy was involved in a deal that went sour. The other party accused Lucy of fraud, claiming that she had falsified documents to swing the deal in her favor. Again, the case was dismissed, but the rumors persisted.
The most disturbing scandal involved Lucy's previous engagement. Her former fiancé had mysteriously disappeared a few weeks before their wedding. Although no foul play was ever proven, there were whispers about Lucy's involvement in his disappearance.
These scandals painted a picture of Lucy as a manipulative and deceitful woman. Jane knew she had to share this information with Erica. They needed to expose Lucy's true nature and save Alexander from a potentially dangerous situation.
