Chapter 348 Arrogant Jacqueline


    Lte was dumbfounded.


    Indeed, there was an easier way to send her to jail. There was no need for her to beat around the


    bush.


    But she still didn''t want to believe that it was true.


    "It seems that you still doubt me," Yvonne smiled mockingly and shook her head. "Well, if you don’t


    believe me, you can contact Jacqueline and ask her if this is true!"


    Lte’s eyes trembled. "Call Jacqueline?"


    "Yes, you don''t dare to do so?" Yvonne tried to agitate her.


    Lte was already in a bad state of mind. Of course, she bit the bait when she was agitated. "Says


    who? I''ll give her a call now."


    After speaking, she took her mobile phone out and called Jacqueline.


    When Yvonne saw this, the corner of Yvonne’s mouth twitched.


    The call was quickly connected. Lte squeezed the phone tightly with both hands and asked the


    other end of the call excitedly, "Miss Jacqueline, is it you?"


    "Yes, it''s me. What''s the matter?" Jacqueline replied with a yawn.


    Yvonne held her breath and dared not speak. She didn''t want Jacqueline to overhear her.

    Meanwhile, Yvonne winked at Lte, trying to hint her not to expose her presence to Jacqueline.


    Lte had been friends with her for so many years, s o she understood what Yvonne meant. She


    nodded lightly and returned to the phone call. "Miss Jacqueline, it’s been a few days. I''m very


    worried about my parents. Can you please tell me how their situation is now? Are they still being


    treated at the hospital?"


    On the other side of the phone, Jacqueline stopped drinking milk and said nonchntly, "Of course


    your parents are in good condition. They''re receiving treatment in an internationally renowned


    hospital."


    "Really?" Lte didn''t doubt her words and she smiled in relief.


    Seeing Lte believing Jacqueline''s words so easily, Yvonne couldn’t help but roll her eyes.


    "Ask her if your parents are at the embassy." Yvonne moved her lips silently to Lte, signaling


    her to ask Jacqueline the question.


    Lte was a little reluctant, but Yvonne’s eyes were very determined that she couldn''t defy her, so


    she did as she said.


    "Miss Jacqueline, can you take a picture of my parents receiving treatment at the hospital?" Lte


    begged.


    Jacqueline''s face sank instantly. "Why? Don''t you trust me?"


    "No, of course not. It’s just that someone told me that they saw my parents at the embassy. So, I..."


    "Embassy?" Jacqueline narrowed her eyes and interrupted Lte, "You said someone saw your


    parents at the embassy. Who''s that person?"


    Lte turned to Yvonne for help.


    Yvonne thought for a while. Then, she took a paper and a pencil from the side and wrote a sentence


    and then showed it to Lte.


    After memorizing it, Lte followed what was written and asked, "My friend''s rtive went to the


    embassy for errands and recognized my parents. So they called me."


    "Hold on!" Jacqueline interrupted her again, "A friend’s rtive? What a coincidence that he


    bumped into your parents at an embassy abroad. Who are you lying to?"


    Lte opened her mouth, but she was speechless.


    Yvonne touched her nose in a panice. She knew that Jacqueline was not foolish.


    "Forget it. Stop beating around the bush and just tell her the truth. Tell her that it''s my husband and


    me," Yvonne gave up and whispered to Lte.


    Lte hesitated for a moment. Then, she said slowly,


    "Alright then. I really was lying to you. There isn''t any rtive, but the embassy called me and said


    that my parents are with them now. They even asked me to prepare the relevant documents to bring


    them back. That’s why I''m calling to ask if my parents are really being treated at the hospital."


    Yvonne was taken aback after hearing what Lte said. Then, she sighed.


    She didn''t expect Lte to cover the truth. Instead, she made up another reason.


    "The embassy called you?" Jacqueline squeezed her phone abruptly and her face turned sour. She


    hated the embassy.


    Lte realized that her tone was inappropriate and she felt a little frustrated, "What do you mean,


    Miss Jacqueline? So what the embassy said is true? My parents are with them and they are not at


    the hospital?"


    Jacqueline frowned. "What attitude are you showing m e? Are you questioning me?"


    "Miss Jacqueline, I’m not questioning you. I just want t o know where my parents are!" Lte


    roared.


    Jacqueline sneered. "Don''t you have the answer already?"


    "So, my parents are really..."


    "Yes, your parents are indeed at the embassy," Jacqueline flicked her nails and replied coldly.


    Lte yelled frantically, "Why? Why are my parents there? Didn''t you say that my parents were


    sent to the hospital?"


    "I did instruct them to be sent to the hospital, but my people didn''t follow my order. So it''s none of


    my business,” Jacqueline shrugged.


    When Yvonne heard this, she looked at Lte worriedly.


    She saw Lte squeezing the phone-her body was trembling and her eyes were filled with hatred.


    "Liar, these are all excuses. You''ve been lying to me, haven''t you? You never intended to send my


    parents to the hospital. You’re just taking me for a ride so I''ll foolishly do things for you!”


    "Not bad, you figured it out so quickly. I never intended to send your parents for medical treatment.


    You''re just a dispensable pawn to me. Do you really think that I''d be nice to you?” Jacqueline


    snorted proudly.


    Lte cried angrily, "Jacqueline, you''re so vicious!"


    "I''m vicious?” Jacqueline curled her lips in disdain. " Why don''t you say that you''re a fool? You know


    that Yvonne and I are on bad terms, yet you still cooperate with me. Isn''t this foolish? I''m not the


    only one who led your parents into the current situation. You did too.” 1


    Upon hearing this, Lte''s pupils shrank. All the regret and guilt surged up suddenly, and she


    could


    hardly breathe.


    Jacqueline was right, she was foolish.


    For a verbal promise, she betrayed her friend, sold the house, and her parents were suffering.


    She was wrong, so wrong!


    "Lyn..." Looking at Lte this way, Yvonne felt really upset.


    Lte put away her worries, squeezed her hands tightly, and her eyes were determined.


    "Jacqueline, aren''t you afraid of karma? Are you not afraid that I''ll call the cops on you?"


    Jacquelineughed disapprovingly, "Call the cops? Go ahead. Do you have any proof? Let me tell


    you that you have none. Don’t forget that you''re the one who put the poison in and you left your


    fingerprints on the bottle. It has nothing to do with me. Even if you report this to the police, I''ll still be


    able to get away with it."


    "You..." Lte was speechless. Only then did she remember that Jacqueline didn’t touch the


    bottle.


    It was a man who gave it to her and the man was wearing gloves.


    She was immersed in the joy of her parents being saved and she didn''t notice these details at all. 1


    shing back at the memory now, she was miserable.


    "You nned it all!" Lte grumbled into the phone with a distorted expression.


    Jacqueline giggled, "I''ve said this before. I want the surrounding people to betray Yvonne. So, I


    definitely have to n well."


    Yvonne narrowed her eyes and whispered, "Betrayal..." So this was what Jacqueline meant at that


    time?
