Chapter 480: Murdering a Pregnant Woman?
After Lily finishes telling him what to do next, Jasper takes the document and is about to leave.
Just at that moment, someone knocks on the door, and then it opens.
"President Lily, excuse me."
Ees in, followed by several men in uniform.
Lily gets up from her chair and asks, "What''s wrong?"
"We are from the Yorkshire Police Station." One of the men shows his badge and says seriously. "Ms.
Lily, we suspect you of murdering a pregnant woman. Pleasee with us to the police station."
Murdering a pregnant woman?
Lily is surprised. Does she have anything to do with a murder?
"Ms. Lily." Seeing that Lily doesn''t respond to his words, the man takes out a pair of handcuffs and
says, "Pleasee with us! If you resist, we''ll handcuff you."
"Sorry, I was lost in thought just now."
Lily doesn''t know what''s going on, but since she''s now in thepany, she doesn''t want to make a big
fuss. If she really walks out in handcuffs, it''ll be troublesome.
"Could you please wait a minute? I''d like to have a few more words about the work with my
colleagues."
With their acquiescence, Lily talks to E about their work.
She also tells Jasper that he must investigate carefully to see where the Egret Company got the
perfume form.
E asks worriedly, "President Lily, will you be alright?"
"Don''t worry. They''re just going to ask me a few questions." Lily smiles and says, "I didn''t do that so
there''s nothing to be afraid of."
Lily then leaves with the policemen.
When they leave thepany and get into the police car, Lily can''t help but ask the man next to her,
"Since you said I''m suspected of murdering a pregnant woman, can I ask who that woman is?"
The man says in a cold voice, "Sit there quietly. You''ll know when you get to the police station!"
"..."
Ten minutester, they arrive at the police station.
As soon as she steps into the police station, Lily remembers the past and Lucy''s death. She woke up in
the police station, and was tortured and detained for several days before being released.
She also recalls that Jason was shot dead in order to cover her. Her heart aches.
If she didn''t choose to take revenge and go to the Sky Fun Pce when she discovered the love affair
between Jason and Lucy at that time, she wouldn''t have met Louis and the rest of her life might be
A policeman takes Lily to a desk and points at the chair in front of her.
"Ms. Lily, sit down please."
Lily pulls out the chair and sits down.
It''s good not to go to a private interrogation room because she can''t stand the dazzling light inside.
"Did you give this duck soup to Willow Roth?" The man shows a few photos to Lily as he opens the
interrogation notebook.
Duck soup?
Looking at the photos, Lily finally realizes that the pregnant woman he just mentioned is Willow!
What''s going on?
Did Willow call the police?
Since Lily doesn''t answer his question, the man raises his voice, "Ms. Lily, answer my question!"
"Yes." Lily moves her lips and wants to exin, "I did give it to her, but there was a
misunderstanding..."
"Since you just admitted giving this duck soup to her, what other misunderstandings can there be?" The
man interrupts Lily, "You deliberately put the medicinal herbs which could invigorate blood cirction in
the duck soup and then gave it to Ms. Roth. You did that because you wanted her to have a
miscarriage!"
"No." Lily clenches her hands tightly, trying to calm herself down.
"A friend gave me the soup but I was too full at the time, so when I saw Willow’s mother-inw return, I
asked her to take it back to Willow, but I didn''t know that there were some medicinal herbs in it that can
cause miscarriage."
The man tries to find a loophole in her words and says, "Even though you didn''t know that the duck
soup contained medicinal herbs for invigorating blood cirction, it was you who had given this soup to
Ms. Roth, wasn''t it?"
Lily can''t deny that so she can only say, "Yes."
The man writes down a few words in the notebook and stares hard at her, "I heard that Ms. Roth
treated you well when you were staying at the homestay family. Why did you want to kill her and her
baby?"
"I didn''t!" Lily denies. "I didn''t know there was something wrong with the duck soup. If I did, I would
definitely not give it to Mrs. Roth."
The man looks at her and asks coldly, "Ms. Lily, are you pregnant?"
"..."
Lily knows she can''t lie in the police station. If it''s found outter that she lies, she will be convicted for
sure.
She purses her lips and says, "Yes, I am."
"You''re pregnant and chose not to have the duck soup. Doesn''t it just mean that you knew there was
something wrong with the soup?" The man says, "So you gave the duck soup to Ms. Roth intentionally
to cause her miscarriage."
Lily gets so anxious that she has a headache. She says again, "As I''ve told you, I didn''t know there
was something wrong with the duck soup. I just thought it was very nutritious and good for pregnant
women, so I gave it to Willow."
It seems that the man doesn''t hear her words. He just asks impatiently, "Who gave you the duck
soup?"
"..."
Noticing that Lily is silent again, he taps his pen sharply on the notebook and asks again, "Ms. Lily,
please answer my question!"
Lily frowns slightly and says, "Louis Smith."
The man seems to know this name. His hands tremble slightly. Then he continues to ask questions.
Lily tries to stay calm.
No matter how this man tries to make her admit that she wanted to murder Willow and her baby by
asking many questions, she insists that she didn''t know there was something wrong with the duck
soup.
About ten minutester, the man finishes his questions and leads Lily into a room with ss windows,
asking her to wait there.
The babies in Lily''s womb are very naughty and suddenly kick her heavily.
Lily frowns in pain. She can only touch her belly, trying to cate the babies.
What a busy day today! Lily feels quiet tried now but the naughty babies don''t know about that but just
kick her. It''s so annoying.
After a minute or two, Lily sees through the ss that the door opposite opens.
The policeman who questioned her just nowes close, followed by a woman.
The woman was wearing thin clothing. Her eyes were dim, and she doesn''t look good.
Lily stands up from her chair and stares at the woman with shock, regret and guilt in her eyes.
Lily didn''t dare to face Willow after she indirectly caused Willow to miscarry, so she chose to go back to
Yorkshire first, and then ask E to go to L City to talk with Willow about thepensation. However,
Willow directly chased E away.
Lily can see how painful it was for Willow to lose the child. The smile has gone from Willow''s face since
then.
Willow raises her head and meets Lily''s eyes.
All of a sudden, Willow''s eyes open wide with hatred. Lily can tell from her eyes that Willow hates her
so much and wishes to kill her.
Lily moves her lips, unable to say anything.
The man leans over to Willow and asks her something. Then Willow raises her hand and points at Lily.
Lily knows from the movement of Willow''s lips that she''s telling the policeman that Lily is the murderer.
Lily hurries to the ss window and says, "Willow, I didn''t know there was something wrong with the
duck soup. I''m so sorry."
But the ss is soundproof, so even though Lily has been speaking anxiously for a long time, neither of
them hears her.
They leave soon.
Lily forces herself to calm down, but her hands are trembling all the time.
After a while, the manes in.
He says to Lily coldly, "Ms. Roth has testified that you have murdered her baby and attempted to kill
her. Now the evidence is clear. Ms. Lily, you must stay here before the trial. We will get you awyer. Of
course, you can also call yourwyer to appeal and defend you."
Lily closes her eyes.

When she opens her eyes again, she is very calm. "Alright, I got it."
Willow has a reason to sue her.
It''s her who has indirectly caused Willow''s miscarriage, so she can''t refute it.
