"Mrs. Collins, if you're gonna frame me,at least hire a decent video editor."Wendy couldn't help but mock.

She continued, "Look at the watermark under the date. Everything else is covered up, but there's a double date here."

The room full of Horizon Medical College leaders turned their attention to the video date.

Sure enough, as the video played, the real date faintly appeared.

Everyone now understood what was going on.

Juniper's face flushed with anger as her scheme was exposed.

She slammed the table and glared at Marlon. "Mr. Rojas, if you don't want to offend the Collins family, you must fire Wendy today!"

Wendy's heart sank.

Harold was about to speak up for Wendy when the conference room door suddenly opened.

A beam of light poured in as Alexander walkedin with steady steps.

Dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, he exuded a cold and powerful aura that made everyone else hesitant to meet his gaze.

The room fell into a brief silence.

Marlon and the other leaders exchanged puzzled looks. Why was Alexander here?

Only Harold understood-he was here to support Wendy.

Alexander's gaze landed directly on Wendy.

Wendy was momentarily stunned when she met his eyes.

'Why is he here?' she thought.

The leaders of Horizon Medical College greeted Alexander, who nodded slightly, but his eyes never left Wendy.

For some reason, Wendy felt a sense of calm wash over her the moment she saw him.

Even though he hadn't said a word, Wendy had a strong intuition that he was here to help her.

Juniper felt a twinge of panic when she recognized Alexander.

This powerful man was the head of the Turner Group,and the Turner family had deep roots in Eldoria, far beyond what the Collins family could handle.

She glanced at the blurry surveillance video, relieved that the man in the video was unrecognizable.

Maybe, as Sarah had said, Alexander was just playing around with Wendy.

Someone of his status couldn't possibly be interested in a divorced woman with no power or influence.

Feeling more confident. Juniper thought that Sarah, with her prestigious background and outstanding education, would surely catch Alexander's eye if given the chance.

Her goal now was to completely discredit Wendy, proving the rumors of her infidelity and making Alexander lose interest in her.

Most men were very proud, and in front of so many people, Alexander was unlikely to step forward and defend a woman with a tarnished reputation like Wendy.

"Back when Wendy was desperate to marry Ethan, who knows what shameless tricks she used to seduce him," Juniper said, growing bolder as everyone remained silent, convinced that Alexander wouldn't intervene.

"After the divorce, she kept extorting property and money from the Collins family. I've never seen such a shameless woman."

"Now she's caught in an affair, humiliating Ethan. No man could tolerate that!"

"A woman of such poor character must be dismissed, no matter what.Otherwise, it's not just the school's reputation that will suffer."

Alexander stood silently, his handsome face partially hidden in the shadows,his deep eyes filled with a chilling intensity.

The leaders of Horizon Medical College exchanged uneasy glances.

They didn't believe Juniper's accusations, knowing Wendy's excellent performance during her internship.

But with Alexander present, they didn't dare speak up, fearing they might offend him.

Seeing Alexander's inaction, Juniper's confidence grew. She was determined to ruin Wendy and reclaim the property and money taken from the Collins family.

"The Collins family's upbringing is quite something," Alexander's deep.authoritative voice broke the silence.

Everyone's eyes turned to him.

"If I'm not mistaken, the location in the surveillance video is Starlight Lounge, and the man obscured by the mosaic is me."

The leaders of Horizon Medical College were stunned, looking between Alexander and Wendy.

They never expected Wendy to have any connection with Alexander.

Wendy looked at Alexander, her eyes filled with gratitude.

He was willing to clear her name in front of everyone, regardless of his own reputation?

Most men would avoid being associated with a woman smeared with such accusations.

Especially since she had rejected his advances so bluntly the day before.

"Who would've thought that having a drink wvith a friend at a bar would turn into an affair." Alexander said coldly, his gaze fixed on Juniper.

"Indeed, if Mr. Turner hadn't arrived in time, I would've been falsely accused of infidelity," Wendy said calmly, glancing at Juniper.

She continued, "The cost of spreading rumors is so low these days. Justa few words can turn black into white."

Alexander took a step forward, standing firmly beside Wendy.His presence and the faint scent of wood calmed her nerves.

Then, his deep, magnetic voice reached her ears. "If I remember correctly,your son's crush, Lydia, returned as his secretary."

"They rekindled their old flame, and he asked Wendy for a divorce.Wendy,being kind-hearted, agreed to the divorce to let them be together."

Wendy was surprised but quickly regained her composure

With Alexander's resources, it wasn't hard for him to find out the truth.

When he first asked her to help take care of Chris, he must have already investigated her situation thoroughly.

So,it wasn't surprising that he knew about these matters.

"Mrs. Collins, Ethan was already with Lydia before we divorced. So, who was really unfaithful? The Collins family is quite skilled at turning the tables."

Wendy continued calmly, "Ethan built his business with my help. I only asked for two million dollars and a house in the divorce. You call that extortion?"

"If you have any complaints, we can settle this in court. But then, it won't just be about this small amount of property."
