Chapter 153

Megan York finished speaking and threw Alexander Grant a flirtatious glance.

Alexander finally turned his gaze toward her face.

Megan instantly forgot her tough-girl persona. Her cheeks flushed pink as she lowered her head like a bashful mimosa.

"Prince Alexander..."

Suppressing his disgust, Alexander spoke with deliberate slowness. "For King's Glory spokesperson, we'll replace Susan Thompson... with you?"

Megan's eyes lit up. She never expected such fortune to fall into her lap.

She coyly twisted her fingers. "Young Master Alexander, you're teasing me."

Alexander's gaze slowly traveled downward, landing on her bare feet.

Thinking he was admiring her, Megan couldn't resist wiggling her toes.

"The King's Glory spokesperson should have bare feet, not roasted pig trotters!"

Megan's face turned deathly pale.

Snickers erupted around them.

Candy Wilson cursed the useless woman internally before stepping forward herself.

With practiced vulnerability, she said, "Prince Alexander, Susan must be innocent. Even if she did take my bracelet, I forgive her."

Susan smirked. "Candy, had enough acting?"

"How could you think that of me..." Candy's eyes instantly welled up. "That bracelet was left to me by Grandma. How could I use it to frame you?"

"Because the dressing room has surveillance." Susan checked her watch. "I knew you'd come. I took precautions."

Candy's expression changed abruptly.

Vincent King suddenly barked, "Susan!"

His eyes burned with fury. "A woman like you has no right to act so superior!"

Alexander suddenly pressed a hand to his chest and strode toward Vincent.

The two men stood toe-to-toe, tension crackling between them.

"Vincent King." Alexander's voice was icy. "If Susan is innocent, you will apologize to her."
