Astrid was already drunk, and her legs gave way. The next second, she collapsed into an awkward squat, her skirt riding up in an embarrassing display.
The butler immediately looked away, worried that he might get an eye infection from what he saw.

Soon after, a revolting smell filled the air. She lifted her arm to sniff it and almost vomited from the strong odor. It was enough to make her feel queasy! What was that smell?! It was so pungent and unpleasant that it made her feel sick to her stomach.
Astrid howled angrily at the sky. "Who?! Who did this? Who?!" "Heh, who asked you to keep causing a scene here and ruining the peace?” Sasha slightly lifted her chin and confidently strolled out of the main gate. "Look, even the heavens find you annoying, tossing water to wake you up. Shut your mouth and go back to where you belong." "It was you! You threw it on me!" Astrid glared furiously, her teeth chattering from the cold wind.
"How can you be so sure it was me? Rain falls from the sky, so why can't it rain sewage? Speople seem to attract bad luck on their own. Maybe one day, they'll get struck by lightning while strolling down the street." Sasha liked sauerkraut and kept jars of it in the pantry. The fermented sauerkraut water from last year finally cin handy. At first, she thought about using actual sewage to throw on Astrid, but since it was her own courtyard and not worth messing up for someone so insignificant, she held back.
"Sewage... Sewage water?! Ugh..." Astrid went pale and covered her chest as she uncontrollably gagged.
"You know exactly what you did. We haven't called you out on it, but you should have just stayed quiet et instead of making a scene here. भ Chairman Thompson doesn't even want to see your father anymore, let alone you. So, just go away and don't make a bigger fool of yourself." Sasha pinched her nose in disgust as she spoke. Astrid's heart sank as she realized she was about to leave empty-handed. Frustrated and embarrassed, she angrily spat on the ground before reluctantly departing from Thompson's place, looking unkempt and smelling unpleasant.

"I was curious why the Iverson family seemed secure, and then suddenly Lance's son-in-law becthe focus of the investigation. So was Justin behind all this?" S "Yeah, Justin orchestrated it all. It was his way of seeking revenge for Amelia and showing the Iverson family that none of our children should be messed with." Wyatt's expression relaxed as he fell silent, lost in thought.
Mila watched his face closely and felt a small shift in his attitude toward Justin.
This was the little task that Bella had left her over the phone the day before yesterday. Bella had asked her to find an opportunity to talk to Wyatt about the situations Theodore's arrest and the problems the Iverson family was dealing with, crediting it all to Justin, in hopes of improving his image. Initially, Mila was unsure how to start this conversation. Luckily, Astrid's unexpected visit tonight provided just the right material for her to leverage.
"Hmm... Wait a minute." Wyatt's brows furrowed again. “But isn't it a bit off? Axel was the one who made the arrest. If everything was Justin's setup, how did Axel end up involved? It would make sense if Bella arranged it."
