“You must not listen to the nonsense that Ava told you. Also, the evidence she provided must be false because I really didn’t tamper with the brakes of the car. You’ll know if you find the man.”“Did you just say the evidence Ava provided?” the police asked rhetorically.Chloe nodded. “Didn’t you only come to arrest me because she reported me?”“I think you’ve made a mistake. It was Naya Mendez who reported you and it was her who gave us evidence against you.”“...”Upon hearing this answer, Chloe was instantly frozen in place. It took a while for her to finally react.“A-Are you serious? Was it really Naya who reported me? She also provided evidence?”Chloe was dubious.The police quickly showed her evidence that Naya had provided them not long ago. It was a recording. Chloe's eyes widened when she heard the recording.Was that not the conversation she had with Naya in Naya's apartment after she was summoned by the police for questioning?At that time, she was so panicked
Naya was initially very confident, but she was stunned when Chloe suddenly uttered that sentence.‘What?‘This woman has a recording as well?‘What did she record?‘Could it be a recording from when we reached an agreement to tamper with Ava’s car?’There was a trace of panic in Naya's eyes, and Madeline also noticed the fleeting glint in Naya's gaze.“Chloe, you said you have a recording. What recording is it?” the police asked.Naya's heart seemed to be suspended by something invisible when she heard this. She was extremely nervous.Chloe also seemed to sense Naya's anxiety, but now, she seemed much more carefree and pleased.She rolled her eyes at Naya, and suddenly, her eyes fell on Ava's face.“Ava, I think if you’re not a fool, you must already know who exactly wants to make a move on you. I have no grievances with you and we’re not connected by anything. There’s no reason for me to target you or frame you. I only did that because Naya asked me to!”“Chloe, this is sla
Madeline and Ava both knew what Chloe said was true. Naya was the one who wanted to take revenge on Ava.However, even after the police searched for a while, they did not find the footage Chloe mentioned.The calmness and complacency on Chloe's face was suddenly wiped off. “That’s impossible. What I just said is true. Everything was recorded!”Chloe said while taking the phone over to search for the footage herself. After searching for a while, she finally realized the problem.All footage were only kept for half a month, and coincidentally, the footage from that day was automatically deleted today.Naya spotted the annoyed look on Chloe's face, and the corners of her mouth were raised into a smile again.“Chloe, you can’t keep up with your act anymore, huh? What you said was completely false. Officer, I'm going to sue this woman for slandering my reputation.”Naya made a false countercharge.Chloe raised her head sharply and glared angrily at Naya, who was looking smug. She t
Madeline consoled her, knowing that Ava must be brooding over what Naya said not long ago.“Ava, you mustn't be influenced by what Naya said. The person at fault is the person who tampered with the car.”After hearing what Madeline said, Ava started to cry even harder.“Actually, what she said isn’t completely wrong. If I were the one who went out and not Dan, the person lying inside now would be me. It was Dan who saved me from this disaster.”Ava raised her tearful eyes slightly. She tried her best to look at the man lying on the hospital bed through her blurred vision but she could not seem to see clearly.Daniel’s body was wrapped in a lot of gauzes, including his face and head. Ava could not stop her tears when she looked at Daniel in this state.Madeline took out a tissue and wiped Ava's tears. She kept saying comforting words to Ava again and again, but she knew it was useless. Ava would only feel better if Daniel's condition improved.After Madeline wiped Ava's tears,
She immediately felt uneasy. Daniel's mother knew very well that no matter what, Ava would definitely stay by Daniel’s side. Now that they were both gone, it was very likely that something bad had happened to Daniel. Sure enough, Daniel's mother stopped a nurse and learned that Daniel’s situation suddenly had a bad turn. He was in the emergency room at the moment.Daniel's mother immediately felt tense and rushed to the emergency room. From afar, she spotted Ava, Madeline, and Jeremy waiting at the door with heavy expressions on their faces.“What’s going on? What happened? What's wrong with Dan?” Daniel's mother asked loudly as she quickly walked toward the emergency room.Madeline raised her eyes when she heard the noise. When she saw Daniel's mother in a hurry, Madeline subconsciously moved in front of Ava and said coldly.“There was a fluctuation in the machine’s reading just now. The doctor is now inside giving Dan a detailed diagnosis and treatment. The specific situation i
Madeline did not expect Raegan to suddenly appear. Ava, who was sitting in the corner, gave a small reaction too. However, her brows seemed to furrow even tighter now.Naya was stunned for a moment.She widened her eyes in disbelief as she looked at Raegan in front of her.What did this woman say she was?A poorly educated degenerate? A degenerate!She was a dignified young lady who grew up in a life of luxury. She had always been a delicate princess with an extraordinary status, but now, she was called a degenerate!Raegan probably read Naya's thoughts from her conflicted and angry expression, but Raegan did not change her mind.“Did you hear what I said? Miss Degenerate, please apologize to my daughter right away.”Raegan repeated herself and directly called Naya ‘Miss Degenerate’.Naya was really frustrated now. “How dare you call me that? Do you think you’re all that just because you have money? Do you think you can bully others just because you have money?”Raegan smiled
“...”Daniel’s mother was still confident, but when she was called out by Raegan like that, she immediately felt ashamed. At the same time, she did not want to lose as well.“Hmph!” Daniel’s mother huffed. “Respect? Your daughter is the one who threw herself at my son. She doesn’t respect herself, so why should I respect her? Plus, the Grahams are a reputable family in Glendale. So what if I want to find a daughter-in-law who’s a suitable match with my family?”After Daniel's mother said that, Raegan and Madeline were fuming. However, Ava just had a sarcastic smile on her lips. “Mrs. Graham, your words are so awful. What do you mean Ava threw herself at your son? How could you describe the person your son loves like that? Plus, Dan was the one who stopped her when she wanted to leave. That’s why she agreed to stay. I was there and saw everything with my own eyes.”Madeline emphasized, her gaze sharp and piercing.“It’s a harmonious relationship where both sides love each other,
“Don’t worry, Ms. Xander. I believe that your son-in-law will definitely wake up.”The doctor promised confidently.“He has a very strong will to live. We believe it’s only a matter of time before he’ll wake up. You can just wait patiently. Tell your daughter to stay by his side. We believe that after some time, he’ll wake up.”When Ava heard the doctor saying that Daniel would wake up soon, a pleased smile broke out of her face.“Really? Doctor, are you telling the truth?” Ava asked excitedly. She had been staying silent for a long time but she finally said something now.The doctor smiled and nodded at her. “I believe so. May I know who you are?”“She’s the patient’s fiance,” Madeline answered for Ava.The doctor nodded as a look of surprise appeared on their faces. “I see. You’re Ms. Xander’s daughter. Then, you have to stay by your fiance’s side. With your company and encouragement, I believe he’ll wake up very soon.”After she got the doctor’s affirmative answer, Ava almos
