Chapter 704 It''s Not Fair
"Why not? Sure, I dare to take a bet with you," Kitty answered with head held high. Since many people
were looking at her, Kitty was challenged by this young boy so she impulsively agreed to bet with him.
Additionally, she was confident that Charlie couldn''t show any strong evidence against her.
"Follow me," Charliemanded as he turned around. He was going to the exact spot where Sheryl
fell.
Charlie led the way while the rest followed him. Sheryl also stood up and followed. She was curious to
know what tricks Charlie had.
"Is this spot where Sher exactly fell?" Charlie asked faintly. He turned around and looked in Kitty''s
direction, expecting her to answer his question.
Kitty nodded and answered arrogantly, "Yes, that is. So what?"
She gave Charlie a sardonic smile and said in a faint voice, "As you can see, the floor around the pool
is all wet. It''s not impossible for someone to slip and fall into the pool identally. Do you really want to
prove that I caused Sheryl''s ident by just showing us this ce? That''s so ridiculous. Everyone saw
that she fell from here."
"Of course I know that you can''t be convicted by merely showing this spot." Charlie kept calm, and his
face was expressionless. He caught a nce at Kitty and added grimly, "What can truly convict you is
the pair of muddy footprints."
Upon hearing Charlie''sst words, everybody fastened their eyes on the footprints. Charles
immediately understood what Charlie was trying to do. He delightedly stared at him and thought to
himself, ''Although he''s just a child, he is already as smart as his father.''
Sheryl felt a little concerned so she tugged Charles'' coat tail and said, "Just bring Charlie back. He is
just a kid. He shouldn''t be involved in this kind of trouble."
Charles just smiled softly. He was absolutely confident that Charlie could solve this matter. He believed
his son could do it well.
"Don''t worry about him," Charles gently reassured Sheryl. Then he added calmly, "Since he''s just a kid,
he naturally has a different insight and mindsetpared to us. Just wait and see. I think he really has
some proofs."
Sheryl looked at Charlie in puzzlement.
Kitty also saw the two muddy footprints. They came in different sizes. However, she couldn''t find
anything unusual at all. So she asked Charlie impatiently, "Stop ying enigmatic. What do you want to
prove by these footprints?"
"As we all know," Charlie paused for a while. "If Sher truly fell into the pool by ident, the floor must
have some elongated footprints that would show someone slid and fell. But look at these footprints
carefully. The smaller footprint is a muddy one while the other footprint shows the full sole. Neither of

them shows any trace that someone slipped. So, it''s obvious that someone really pushed Sheryl, and
that was why she fell into the pool."
"You are talking nonsense!" Kitty yelled. She had belittled this child so much. She wondered how could
this kid have such a strong reasoning capacity. "There were so many people here and they probably
have passed by this area too. Why would you insist that these footprints belonged to Sheryl?" she
asked dubiously.
Charlie stared at Kitty with his confident eyes. "You can check everybody. All of you here are wearing
flip-flops except for Sher and Dad. They hadn''t changed their shoes since they came back from the
farnd and mountain climbing as well. So there must be mud all over the soles of their shoes.
Therefore, therge footprints must be Dad''s and the smaller ones must belong to Sher."
Upon hearing Charlie''s words, Sheryl was dumbstruck. She never thought that Charlie would have
such a rigorous logical thinking. No matter how intelligent he was, he was still a 5-year-old child.
Everyone including Sheryl was surprised by Charlie, let alone Kitty. She began to stammer and didn''t
know what to say. She never expected that she would be defeated by a young boy.
"What else do you want to say?" Charlie asked firmly. He eyed Kitty sarcastically.
For someone who attempted to afflict Sheryl, he would never allow her to seed.
"I..." Kitty hemmed and hawed. Eventually, she said to Charlie, " These are just footprints. How can
they prove anything?"
Then she added with a sardonic smile, " You are just a child. Whatever you''re saying now is just
nonsense."
She stretched out her hand and was about to shove Charlie but Charles was prompt enough to seize
her hand. He angrily yelled, "How dare you! You also want to do the same to Charlie in front of so many
people?"
Kitty felt a slight pain from Charles'' grip. She looked at Charles with knitted brows and asked, "Mr. Lu,
do you believe in a child''s words? I wouldn''t push..." Kitty wasn''t able toplete her words because
Charles immediately interrupted her.
"It is not you who have the final say!" Charles gritted his teeth out of anger. "The evidence is already
right in front of you and yet, you are still trying to justify yourself?" Charles'' facial expression hardened.
He added, "Kitty, from now on, you are never allowed to set foot in mypany. I will discuss this
matter with Miss Ye and I will pay the penalty if there''s any. I will let Miss Ye deal with you. I won''t
meddle in it."
Then he turned to the other models with a cold look. "All of you, listen carefully. If I hear any of you
nder or gossip anyone from your group in the future, I will not hesitate to teach you a lesson just like
this. I can easily sack you all. I have more than enough money to find your recement. Take it to
yourselves seriously. Do you understand?"
Kitty looked pale. She didn''t realize until now that Charles was beating the dog before the lion and she
was exactly the unlucky dog that was punished.
Now she understood that Charles was only getting even with her for Sheryl. And he was making it clear
to the rest of the models that he was always on Sheryl''s side and if they tried to do something
unpleasant towards her again, they would never have a good ending.
Unfortunately, she didn''t realize this fact earlier. Everything was toote now.
"Mr. Lu, I think this is unfair," one of the models said bitterly. She was the closest model to Kitty so it
was just normal that she stood up for her. "Everything that the child said was just inference. It couldn''t
be considered as strong evidence. You are now dismissing Kitty merely because of his words. Are you
not being unfair to her?"
"Who are you?" Charles nced at the model. "Do you want to get justice for her?"
"I am Kitty''s friend," the model answered calmly. "Nobody knows the real reason why Sheryl fell into the
pool. Each sticks to his own argument. But Sheryl is safe and sound now. However, you are firing Kitty
due to this matter. Anyhow, Kitty is the one who suffers losses. We all know your rtionship with
Sheryl. But in front of so many people, you apparently favor her. Is that reasonable?"
"So how do you think should I deal with this matter?" Charles asked. He was trying his best to pacify
his anger.
