Westley knew it was the perfect time to leak the evidence, but he wanted the final decision to come from Evie before taking things to the next level.
Originally, he had planned to save this evidence to destroy Lucas and Jessica's reputations later. However, now that they had shamelessly presented fabricated proof to brand Evie a liar, he felt it was time for a full-scale counterattack.
He was done using mere threats to stop their schemes; it was time to crush their attempt to ruin her once and for all.
Evie, on the other hand, was still thinking about his question. Silence hung between them for a few seconds as she looked toward the future. Finally, she answered,
"No, not yet."
Westley was stunned, dumbfounded, and shocked at the same time.
He had expected her to jump at the chance to clear her name and erase the stain on her reputation forever. He never imagined she would choose to wait.
In a smooth voice that betrayed no hint of his own confusion, he asked simply, "Why?"
