Chapter 32
Chapter 32 She Can’t Defy the Law
“Sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose.” She didn’t look like she was apologizing.
It was a paper box, so it was floating on the water.
It didn’t go far away and was in reach.
As udia bent down, she caught a hand reaching from her side.
udia sneered and turned around. Elva’s hand touched nothing. She slipped into the pool with a plop.
udia caught hold of the box quickly and took steps back.
Elva called for help as she was struggling in the water.
Rosalie, who was standing to the side as an onlooker, covered her mouth and quickly shouted, “Help!
Elva was pushed into the pool.”
Her voice was resounding, audible to everyone in the Friedan family.
Someone suddenly dashed into the pool and helped Elva out.
It was a handsome man in a white T-shirt. He looked furious as his short hair was dripping wet.
“Derrick!” Elva was about to cry when she saw him. “udia is so cruel. She pushed me into the pool.”
A ser vant brought over a nket to wrap Elva.
Derrick, who had just returned from school, didn’t know what happened. He only saw Elva in the pool,
so he was credulous.
Derrick dropped Elva and turned to look at udia.
He frowned when he saw her. He felt the woman in front of him familiar but didn’t know where he had
met her.
udia was curvaceous, with her hair tied up casually, revealing her delicate neck. She was so
gorgeous.
He wasn’t influenced at all and said, “Miss, please go to the police station with me now.”
Before udia could speak when Derrick tried to send her to prison for no good reason, Rosalie spiced
up, saying, “Derrick, she isn’t a nobody.”
“Really?” Derrick raised his brows. “So she can defy thew?”
He majored inw as a doctoral student. He hated most that influential people defiedws.
That was why he kept a low profile and concentrated on his studies instead of involving himself in the
affairs of thepany.
Rosalie’s words hit him.
“I’m a nobody. But before you im that I’m in the wrong, you can check the surveince camera, Mr.
Friedan.” udia kept her back straight calmly. “I didn’t push her. She wanted to push me. I dodged it,
so she dropped into the pool.”
“You mean Elva asked for it?” Derrick’s sharp eyes swept across her. “If you didn’t stand here, would
she drop into the pool?”
udia was speechless.
Derrick’s loving eyes were as if covered with ice.
udia didn’t expect that someone could twist the truth to such an
extent.
She lowered her eyes, both angry and envious.
If her family were still alive, they would protect her like that.
Pitifully, she had no family. She could only rely on herself.
“Mr. Friedan, don’t you intend to check the surveince camera?” she sneered calmly.
Hearing her words, Elva had the heart in her mouth.
If Derrick checked the surveince camera, he would know the truth.
“If the police need the surveince camera, we’ll offer it. You can’t check the surveince camera as
you like.”
Derrick came to Elva’s rescue.
Elva heaved a sigh of relief.
Derrick doted on her so much. If Ervin was present, he might check the surveince camera first.
Derrick was especially partial to Elva.
He had never lost anywsuit, not to mention solving such an easy
task.
Elva wanted udia to be hated by the Friedan family before her identity was exposed.
Thus, even if udia was proven to be Seraphina someday, she couldn’t sna tch anything from Elva.
“Derrick, she is on good terms with Waldron. She’s Edmond’s ex-wife
too.”
She stressed the word “ex-wife”.
Derrick didn’t care who udia was and insisted on bringing her to the police station.
Themotion attracted the attention of others, including Thomas.
Thomas knew everything when he saw Elva, who was dripping with water, confronted udia.
He just heard that Elva’s schoolmate would arrive tonight. The findings showed that it was probably
Seraphina.
But Waldron spoke so highly of udia. To his surprise, Seraphina was found. But it wasn’t udia.
Seeing udia confronting Elva, Thomas asked curiously, ” Ms. Lloyd, didn’t you leave long ago?”
“Who knows! I saw her pushing Elva into the pool to a distance. Elva spoke up for me today. So she
had a grudge against it. She is so scheming. No wonder Edmond divorced her!” Rosalie made things
worse.
udia tittered.
They really thought that she was a pushover.
“Mr. Friedan, since you’re here, you’d better check the surveince camera. I also want to know why
Ms. Friedan dropped my box into the water and tried to push me. Her ability to twist the truth really
perplexes me. I don’t know when I offended her.”
udia’s words made Elva embarrassed.
“I’ve just returned home and didn’t know you before. Why would I target you? udia, it was you who
pushed me!”
udiaughed as Elva tried to twist the truth.
“Ms. Friedan, it’s the 21st century. Do you think you can convict me just because Rosalie and you
colluded?” udia looked at Derrick. She said lightly, “You seem to be a sessfulwyer. For a
lawyer, the truth is the most important. Do you think you can frame me up just because she is your
younger sister?”
Her question was sharp and prating.
Derrick’s bright face darkened.
He was being partial as he thought Elva wouldn’t lie to him.
But udia’s words reminded him of his partiality.
“Since she wants to check the surveince camera, let her check!” Thomas spoke and smiled
meaningfully.
Elva was worried, though she didn’t look worried.
If the surveince camera was checked, the truth would be exposed.
She didn’t expect udia to be so tough.
Rosalie was right. udia was horrible.
Elva broke out in a cold sweat as she was nervous,
Thomas didn’t think too much. He thought Elva was kind and believed that she wouldn’t frame up a
person whom she had only seen once.
He thought udia was lying.
But he admired udia for her courage. She was the first one who had
forced him to check the surveince camera.
He decided to give her a chance.
“I don’t believe that my daughter would lie and frame you up.”
He stood there confidently with his hands behind his back.
Seeing Thomas’ confident face, udia wasn’t surprised.
She knew it was natural for parents to be partial to their children, especially someone like Thomas.
But when she was allowed to check the surveince camera, she wasn’t in a hurry instead.
“Mr. Friedan, thanks! Both of us will be at ease then.”
udia sized Elva up with interest. To her expectations, Elva’s face was horribly pale.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
