Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 307:

The next morning, Mabel luxuriated in the embrace of sleep until she naturally awoke. With a sleepy hand, she

reached for her phone, eager to check her online presence. However, her heart sank as she discovered a barrage

of unfavorable comments awaiting her. Confusion clouded Mabel’s mind. How had her pristine online reputation

taken such a sudden malicious turn overnight? Just yesterday, she had been held in high regard. What had

changed so drastically?

Mabel’s trembling fingers navigated to the top search result, revealing the incendiary phrase “Whole Process Of

Mabel’s Theft” dominating the hot topic. Mabel’s fingers trembled as she hesitantly clicked on the video link. A

piercing scream escaped her lips as terror gripped her upon the realization that the footage before her was none

other than the incriminating surveillance video capturing her illicit acquisition of Elyse’s sheet music.

Mabel’s cries of disbelief echoed through the room. Wasn't the video deleted? Wasn't it supposed to be lost

forever? How could it resurface now? Fear drained the color from Mabel’s face, leaving her complexion ashen.

She stood frozen in shock, caught in disbelief for a long tbefore the fog of panic slowly lifted, and she

regained her senses.

She reached for her phone with trembling hands, desperate to connect with Rebekah for reassurance. However,

her hopes were dashed as the phone rang unanswered, leaving her to grapple with the realization that Rebekah,

too, was engulfed in her turmoil, unable to offer solace or support.

As the damning video surfaced into public view, it brought with it another layer of incrimination: the revelation of

Mabel and Rebekah’s transaction records. A staggering sum of six hundred thousand dollars had been

clandestinely transferred into Rebekah’s account, further complicating the scandal.

With the emergence of the video and the accompanying transaction records, every detail of the scandal was laid

bare for all to see, leaving no room for doubt. Rebekah was privy to Mabel’s theft, yet rather than reporting the

wrongdoing, she opted for silence, striking a clandestine deal with Mabel in exchange for a hefty sum of hush

money.

The timing of Jayden’s decision to expose the scandal was calculated with precision. Rather than opting for the

cover of night when online activity tended to peak, he strategically chose half-past nine in the morning, a subtle

yet impactful moment that ensured maximum visibility.

At this time, Rebekah was heading to her orchestra job. The top brass of the Celestial Sounds Symphony were

about to meet to talk about Rebekah’s conduct on the job. Jayden was eager for a swift resolution. He hoped to

restore Elyse to her job promptly while rooting out the true culprit responsible for the disruption.

At this moment, Rebekah stood in the meeting room facing scrutiny from the senior leaders of the Celestial

Sounds Symphony. Before her was an extravagant item she had purchased with Mabel’s money. Adding to the

gravity of the situation, Darren uncovered troubling revelations. Not only had Rebekah tampered with the

monitoring room’s power switch, but she had also succumbed to bribery, allowing the paparazzi to infiltrate and

stir chaos.

Clearly, Rebekah had overstepped the boundaries. The impending consequences might not sit well with her. As

for Mabel, seeking retribution against Rebekah would have to wait in the queue of priorities.

Feeling frustrated, Mabel scratched her head and let out a loud shout. She grabbed her phone and stormed out

to find Glenda. Glenda was engrossed in a television show when she suddenly heard Mabel’s cries and swearing.

Glenda gazed at Mabel with concern.

“Sweetie, what's wrong? Who's upset you? I'll help you stand up to them,” she said, offering Mabel a tissue.

Tears streamed down Mabel’s face as she accepted the tissue from Glenda. “It’s Elyse. She discovered the video

ofstealing and shared it online. Now, everyone thinks I'm a thief, Mom. Elyse is tormenting me. It's like she

wants to destroy me.”

Glenda was taken aback and stumbled over her words. “But didn’t you mention that Elyse couldn't find any

evidence? How did she suddenly cacross it?”

Mabel stamped her feet in frustration, tears still flowing. “I have no idea. It's so frustrating. My company even

retracted their support for me. Now, everyone's pointing fingers at me, callinga thief. Let's strategize

together. Could you assistin persuading Elyse to reconsider her narrative and acknowledge my innocence?”

Glenda was left speechless, uncertain about how to comfort Mabel as she held her in her arms. In a moment of

turmoil, Glenda grappled with the impossibility of convincing Elyse to alter her stance. Yet driven by her motherly

instinct to shield her daughter from distress, Glenda resolved to take action.

“I'll shoulder the blame. Just tell them it was my scheme, and | directed you to take the sheet music, sparing you

from being labeled a thief,” Glenda proposed.

Mabel’s sobs echoed in the room. “Mom, if you take the blame, they'll only scoldeven more severely. They

won't buy your story.”

Realizing the limitations of their previous plan, Glenda spoke with a solemn tone. “Well, our only option now is to

approach Elyse and plead for her understanding, to ask her to show you sleniency.”

Mabel’s response was swift and firm. “Mom, you can go if you want, but | won't. | can’t stand Elyse. She doesn’t

deserve to be called my sister.”

Glenda’s expression darkened, her eyes betraying a storm of emotions. She opened her mouth as if to speak but

then swallowed back the truth. She couldn’t bring herself to reveal to Mabel that Elyse wasn’t truly her sister.

Glenda reassured Mabel, saying, “Stop worrying about it. I'll handle everything from here on out. Just focus on

being good these days. No intesurfing or going out, okay?”

Through tears, Mabel lamented, “Mom, | love being in the entertainment industry. When you speak to Elyse,

please ask her not to barand to arrange for my return to the showbiz later on.”

“Alright, | understand. I'll talk to Elyse about it.” After a moment's contemplation, Glenda made her way to the

garden to confer with Lanny.
