William sent those recordings to Elise without any explanation.

He likely believed that providing all the evidence would prompt her to take action.

She only needed to present everything to completely ruin Samuel's reputation. Any attempt Samuel made to explain would only humiliate him further.

Despite William's respectful approach in this matter, Elise still found it difficult to trust anyone but herself.

Meanwhile, Sophia's face turned ghostly pale after hearing the recording.

She had always considered him handsome and impressive, only to discover he was actually a careless fool. So incompetent that even Elise could catch him red-handed!

There was no way to explain this away.

If Samuel wasn't involved in trying to slander Elise, why would he specifically ask the media to harass her?

Any explanation they offered would be meaningless now.

"What do you have to say for yourself now, Sophia Mitchell?" a journalist demanded loudly. "You and Samuel Mitchell orchestrated this malicious slander against Elise Scott! To think you could be so vicious behind that innocent face!"

"Forget stealing your sister's man, Sophia Mitchell—you want her inheritance too! You're just one step away from murder for money! Don't you have any conscience at all?"

"So Samuel Mitchell was behind the scandal... He did all that just to damage Stellar Group's sales!"

As the journalists connected the pieces and uncovered the truth, Elise didn't need to provide any further explanation.

Sophia stubbornly refused to admit anything. "I—I really didn't do anything..."

Since they didn't have definitive evidence directly linking her to the crime, she would rather die than confess, even if everyone knew she was guilty.

"Ms. Scott." The journalists ignored Sophia and turned to Elise. "Do you have anything to say after being so thoroughly betrayed by the man you loved and your own sister?"

Elise had remained composed and dignified from the beginning, earning everyone's admiration.

She spoke in her characteristic neutral tone. "I called everyone here today because I've been pushed to my limits. I had to stand up and clear my name. Honestly, I have nothing to say to Samuel or Sophia—I never wanted to make this public, but they left me no choice."

Her words made Sophia tremble with suppressed rage.

If the journalists hadn't been present, Sophia would have lunged at Elise and strangled her right there!

Since childhood, Sophia had hated how aloof Elise remained no matter what trouble came her way.

Even when completely wronged, Elise would only look at others as if they were clowns making fools of themselves!

"But in the end, I think I should say something." Elise suddenly turned toward Sophia.

Sophia's heart skipped a beat—she had no idea what humiliating words Elise would say now!

"I wish Samuel Mitchell and Sophia Mitchell will be together forever."

When Elise finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent for a moment before erupting into applause for her magnanimity.

She offered a faint, enigmatic smile before rising to her feet. "Thank you all for coming today. This concludes the press conference."

With those final words, she exited the room.

The journalists wanted to ask more questions but realized there was nothing left to ask.

Today's revelations would provide content for days!

Everyone began leaving the conference room as the livestream officially ended.

In William's office at Levine Holdings headquarters, the man himself set down his phone while Samuel Wilson buzzed with excitement beside him.

"See, Mr. Levine?! I told you the missus must have been very confident about this—that's why she turned down your help. Honestly, that press conference was absolutely cathartic. I want to applaud her too!"
