Chapter 488
The moment Allison finished speaking, Joshua's eyes turned cold.
Two bodyguards moved fast, grabbing Trayson and forcing him face-down on the floor.
"| swear, this is all a huge misunderstanding! Ms. Allison, Joshua, you've got it wrong!" Trayson's cheek pressed
hard against the oak boards. "I didn't know you were the Owens heiress from Oak Lake! If I'd known, | would've
never-never- dared say anything like that!"
"So what, regular people deserve to be insulted by you?" Allison's voice was sharp as ice, slicing through the
buzz of the crowd.
"No, that's not what | meant! | swear!"
Someone in the crowd piped up, "That's exactly what he meant! Trayson's infamous in Spring Falls. Plenty of girls
have been hurt by him."
"Yeah, he's always bullying people who can't fight back. Don't let him go this time," another person added.
Allison scoffed, staring down at Trayson with a look so cold it could freeze fire. "Is that true?"
Trayson's voice shook. "No! Don't believe them, they're just trying to make things worse for me!"
Allison's lips curled into a frosty smirk. "I'll get the truth myself."

digging up info on Ms. Allison. He even paid sdangerous guys, gave them her photo, told them to 'take care’
of her. Their boss saw the picture and calledright away."
There was a pause, then the caller hesitated, clearly struggling with what to say next.
Joshua's patience snapped. "Say it."
The man's voice dropped to almost nothing, shaky with fear. "The boss said... Trayson wanted them to find ten
men to... ruin her... then toss her into the ocean to feed the sharks..."
He barely dared to get the words out, afraid even mentioning them might get him killed.
Joshua's grip tightened until his
knuckles went white. He stared down at Trayson, eyes so

Trayson felt the chill, and panic washed over his face, draining all the color from his cheeks.
Joshua hung up and spoke to the bodyguards, voice like steel. "Throw him overboard."
Those three words made Trayson collapse, shaking and drenched in sweat.
"Joshua, please, I'm begging you don't! Please!"
Gasps rose from the crowd.
The bodyguards didn't hesitate they lifted Trayson and dragged him outside.
Allison turned to Joshua, her brows knitted with worry. "Who was that on the phone?"
Joshua just pulled her into his arms, gentle but firm. "Don't,
