Chapter 43


    Hearing the sound of screams, the people around the nt, as well as the employees from Skyton


    Corporation, came over quickly. They surrounded Corrine Quincy.


    When they looked up, they saw Coralie Chariott standing on the balcony of the sample room on the


    second floor. She seemed shocked and horrified.


    All of this seemed to indicate that she had pushed Corrine off intentionally.


    "No, I didn''t push her!"


    Coralie was frightened.


    She ran downstairs, but several security guards surrounded her quickly and blocked her from leaving.


    "I''m sorry. You can''t leave before the police arrives."


    Two security guards held both of Coralie''s arms.


    The onlookers immediately gathered around her as soon as they saw hering down.


    "I didn''t push her. She jumped down by herself!"


    Coralie exined.


    "She fell from such a height, and might killed herself!"


    "Yeah, who would be so stupid as to jump down from such a height?"


    "Oh my god, I really didn''t expect that there would be a murderer in ourpany!"


    Coralie was dragged out by the security guard. She looked helplessly at the people around her.


    Previously, she was regarded as a thief, but now, she was considered a murderer!


    Why was she always in such predicaments?


    She was certain that Corrine had jumped down on purpose. She didn''t expect Corrine to go to such


    extremes to make Coralie disappear!


    At this time, the police and ambnce had arrived at almost the same time.


    The shrill sound of ambnce and police vehicles drowned out the noise from the crowd.


    Skr Hond appeared at the same time as them.


    Coralie looked at Skr. Her first thought was to make sure Skr knew that she didn''t push Corrine


    down! It was Corrine who had jumped down by herself!


    If there was one person there who would believe her, it would be Skr.


    However, Skr did not walk toward her. Instead, he followed the paramedics and walked toward


    Corrine.


    Coralie stood where she was, with her arms held by the security guards. The little hope that she had


    turned into despair.


    At this time, the policemen came over.


    "Police! This is the murderer!" A man ran over and identified Coralie. "When we first arrived, she was


    standing alone on the balcony."


    "Yes, yes, I saw her as well!"


    Someone beside him added.


    "No, I didn''t push her. She jumped down by herself!"


    Coralie repeated the same words to the policemen.


    However, who would believe that Corrine had jumped down on her own?


    At this time, the medical staff had rescued Corrine from the bushes and ced her on the stretcher,


    ready to carry her onto the ambnce.


    Coralie and the policemen turned their heads at the same time.


    They looked at Corrine, who was on the stretcher. There were scratches from the branches on her face


    and her body. On the right side of her face, there was a very clear palm print.


    It was obvious that she was pped by someone else.


    Coralie looked at the palm print and immediately exined, "She pped herself with her left hand!"


    As soon as she said that, the people around her looked at her with contempt.


    "You want to shirk the responsibility that badly? Who would be so stupid as to p themselves, and


    jump off a building?


    As expected, no one believed her.


    Coralie raised her head and looked at Skr, who was in the distance.


    He didn''t even want to be near her. It seemed that he also believed that she had pushed Corrine.


    "That''s right." Coralie smiled bitterly. It was clear who Skr felt was more important, between Corrine


    and herself.


    Coralie''s tiny wrists were secured by the cold handcuffs. "Alright,e with us to the police station."


    The policemen pushed Coralie into the police car.


    Coralie sat in the police car and looked back. She saw Skr standing there with a serious expression,


    but he seemed to be looking at her as well.


    She quickly turned her head away.


    His doubtful expression gave her hope. Hopefully, he believed her.


    ...


    At the police station, the policemen took Coralie''s statement.


    She told the police what had happened before, but she could see that they were suspicious of her.


    They did not believe her words.


    As expected, after she gave her statement, one of the policemen informed her, "We can''t allow you to


    leave until we have cleared you of suspicion, and there is strong evidence to prove that the victim


    jumped down by herself. However..."


    As he said this, the policeman had a sardonic expression.


    It was clear that no one believed that Corrine had pped herself and jumped off the balcony.


    ......


    Corrine woke up a few hourster, after she was taken to the hospital.


    When she opened her eyes and saw Skr next to her, her expression softened. She raised her hand


    to hold Skr''s hand and said, "Skr, I''m sorry for causing you to worry."


    Her voice was soft and weak.


    Skr saw that she had woken up, but his indifferent expression did not change at all. "You jumped out


    by yourself, didn''t you?"


    His voice was deep, and every word was cold like ice.


    Corrine''s hand froze suddenly, and she was stunned. She immediately denied this. "No! I am not crazy.


    Why would I jump off the balcony on my own?"


    She was certain that no one would believe that she would jump down by herself.


    Skr stared at her as if he wanted to see if he could pick up some clues from Corrine''s reaction.

    Corrine had goosebumps. She continued to say, "Skr, I''m not trying to frame Coralie. At that time, in


    the sample room, I didn''t say or do anything. I know that I have an agreement with you, and I wouldn''t


    interfere with your life, but she scolded me and used me of seducing her husband!"


    As she spoke, her eyshes trembled slightly and tears rolled down her cheeks.


    Skr got up and turned around after seeing her reaction. "The police will investigate this matter


    thoroughly."


    After that, he turned around to leave.


    Corrine sobbed and said, "Well, Skr, I do hope that they investigate this matter thoroughly. You must


    believe me. She did push me."


    Before she had finished speaking, Skr left the ward.


    He went to ask the doctor about Corrine''s condition.


    "She was lucky that there were bushes in the ce where shended. If it was somewhere else, she


    would definitely be injured or even dead after falling from the second floor."


    This was the doctor''s answer.


    Skr had gone to inspect the ce, and he found some bushes under the sample room. Beside these


    bushes were t grasnd. He couldn''t help but suspect that Corrine had chosen this ce in


    advance.


    When Skr returned to Skyton Corporation, thepany was already in an uproar. Everyone knew


    that there were two women in Forest Paper Company quarreling over Skr. One of them had tried to


    murder the other.


    Skr''s mother also heard this news.


    As soon as he sat down in the office, his mother, Lillian Ford, called him.


    "Son! What have you been doing recently? Why are you involved with such crazy women?"


    As soon as he answered the phone, Lillian immediately asked him this. She had some spies in Skyton


    Corporation who reported matters to her. Now, Skyton Corporation''s newly acquiredpany was torn


    apart by women fighting over her son. She was notified immediately, as this incident was a major


    incident.
