A Mix-up Made Me His Enemy’s Woman 97
Chapter 97
Bethany kept studying every corner of the security footage, and she paid extra attention to the figure in black clothes who went into room 901 with a key card.
She zoomed in and out of the image repeatedly. “Don’t you think the person’s figure is very familiar to that of the guest involved?”
John immediately narrowed his eyes. “Ms. Porter, you’re thinking that someone’s framing us, aren’t you?”
When Bethany recalled the smugness she saw in Ella’s eyes, she knew the latter had done something reckless just to make her life difficult.
The breakthrough in this case lay with this guest.
Bethany went to the reception and pulled up the customer’s information. Axel Whitman was 38 years old, and he was a senior member of the Violinists‘ Association. He was also a founding member of Ella’s band.
Ella had joined the band three years ago, and she got in after passing Axel’s exam. Clearly, they were more than just fellow bandmates to each other.
Still, would he really stoop so low for Ella’s sake? Was it worth it?
If the truth came out and Axel was found guilty, the repercussions for him would be devastating. Sabotaging his own musical instrument was the lowest of the low in the industry, and he might get himself blacklisted for it.
Even if he somehow avoided a formal sanction, it would be nearly impossible for him to face
the public again.
Alex’s room was on the ninth floor.
Just 30 minutes after the mysterious lady tossed his violin into the supply room, he took the elevator on the third floor and made his way back to his room. That was when he discovered his violin was missing.
After the mysterious lady disappeared from sight, Axel showed up again.
In truth, Bethany couldn’t find any evidence to support her speculations.
Worse yet, there were no security cameras in the stairwell of the emergency exit. They’d planned to purchase and install one later this month. As fate would have it, this terrible incident happened before they could.

It was a massive problem.
When Bethany called and questioned Antonio about the lack of security cameras in the stairwell, all he did was shirk responsibility.
The incident had been dragging on, yet he still reported to work at the company instead of coming to Elysian Hotel as if he wasn’t bothered in the slightest. Clearly, it was no longer worth it to keep him around.
Bethany was pondering the case in the security room when John received a call.
His expression immediately changed after he answered it. “Ms. Porter, those guests have come back! They said they’re here to see you!”
This was it. They were here to humiliate her.

Bethany took her time walking to the hotel lobby. When she arrived, she immediately saw a couple by the reception. They looked perfect standing next to each other.
It was like the world slowed down when they were together.
As expected, Ella always needed Noah’s help whenever she wanted to suppress Bethany. Honestly, she lacked originality.
Bethany wore a practiced smile and said, “I was told you two were here to see me.”
Noah loomed over her, feeling an inexplicable emotion rising in his chest. In the past, she revolved her life around him and whispered nothing but sweet words in his ears.
The last thing he expected was for her to betray him and marry someone else. Since that was the path she’d chosen, she had to also bear the full force of his wrath.
“Bethany, I know you’re heartbroken that we’ve parted ways, but you can’t just set Ella up with such a shady trick!
“Do you know how important today’s concert was to her? It’s a good thing their performance went without a hitch. Otherwise, you’d have caused far more losses than the five–million- dollar violin!
“I want you to apologize to Ella right now!”
There were times when Bethany questioned her taste in men. What in the world did she see in Noah? Why would she ever fall for an idiot like him?
He was the CEO of a large group, yet Ella could always effortlessly manipulate him and play

him for a fool.
Bethany didn’t mince her words. “Mr. Vazquez, are you saying that I deliberately broke the violin so I could pick on your fiancee?”
Noah raised an eyebrow. “Obviously.”
Bethany sneered. “You sure have a high opinion of yourself. What makes you think you’re worth all the time and effort?”
She snorted icily. “The police officers are handling this case, and they have yet to give us conclusive results. So, why should I apologize to her?”
Noah narrowed his eyes. “Are you sure, Beth? Are you certain you want to get on my bad side?”
John and the receptionist were both stunned. Was this whole thing just a personal feud born from a relationship gone wrong?
Bethany couldn’t be bothered to entertain Noah. Instead, she cast an indifferent glance at Ella, who was pretending to be innocent.
“Ella, you know what really happened here, and so do I.”
