Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! - Chapter 487:
Chapter 487: Chapter 487: Do You Dare to Withdraw?
She’s not smart, yet she loves making decisions.
So annoying!
“Thank you,” Zoe Silverstone immediately said.
So, Zoe Silverstone sat in the Clarke Family, watching the Competition together with the family members.
Just then, they saw Iris Doone claiming that Cindy Clarke had no evidence, and was merely trying to tarnish her reputation to eliminate her from the competition.
Many people were brainwashed by Iris Doone’s words.
At this moment, Cindy Clarke calmly said, “Well, let’s just see what the camera in here captured. Maybe it caught who exactly ruined my ingredients.”
“What if it didn’t capture it?” Iris Doone retorted.
“If it didn’t capture it, or if it captured someone else, and I wronged you, I will apologize to you,” Cindy Clarke said.
“An apology is enough?” Iris Doone sneered, saying a cliché phrase, “If apologies are useful, why do we need the police?”
Iris Doone was feeling guilty.
She did come early and had indeed observed the location of the camera in the food storage room.
She also predicted the scope of the camera’s coverage.
When destroying the Shark Fin, she tried to avoid the camera, not to be caught.
But she could only roughly estimate the range in her mind.
She never actually verified the actual scope of the camera’s coverage by looking through it.
She was afraid that she might have estimated it wrong and was caught on camera.
So, Iris Doone had to find a way to make Cindy Clarke abandon her idea of checking the camera footage.
She needed to make Cindy Clarke hesitate, so she wouldn’t dare to request to view the footage.
When the audience heard Iris Doone say this, they knew she had a backup plan.
Moreover, it must be something that would embarrass Cindy Clarke.
Cindy Clarke heard it too, but she wasn’t afraid at all.
She just looked at Iris Doone with a cold and mocking expression, raising her eyebrows and taking the initiative to ask, “What do you want then?”
Since Iris Doone asked the question, she must have something else to say.
Cindy Clarke willingly gave Iris Doone an out, providing her with a ladder to climb down.
No matter what clever idea Iris Doone came up with, she wasn’t afraid at all.
As expected, Iris Doone said, “If you wronged me, you have to voluntarily withdraw from the competition.”
“Whether the camera didn’t capture it or it captured someone else, you have to withdraw. Otherwise, if you falsely accuse me, I will end up being forced to withdraw,” she continued.
“I can’t provide evidence to prove it wasn’t me. Your words make people think I’m despicable and unscrupulous. Even if I’m not eliminated, such a label has already been attached to me. This is a slander and insult to my character.”
“You won’t withdraw, just say you were wrong, apologize to me, and act as if nothing happened. But what about the slander and grievances I suffered?”
“So, can I also slander you in the next competition, then apologize to you, saying I made a mistake, and we’re good? If that’s the case, all of us competitors can do that,” Iris Doone said.
These words once again caused the audience to nod in agreement.
Not only did the contestants agree, but even the audience felt her argument was very reasonable.
Suddenly, their impression of Iris Doone improved a lot.
People who disliked her earlier were now either changing their opinion or finding alternative viewpoints.
Iris Doone stared intently at Cindy Clarke, “Do you dare?”
Cindy Clarke understood Iris Doone’s meaning.
