Chapter 367
Chapter 367 Hedy I Kill in Chaos
Andrew's current view of Preston was equivalent to that of the cow dung in the saying "a fresh flower stuck in cow dung".
And the more he looked at Preston, the more annoyed he became, the more he wanted to punch him.
If he were Preston, he would never have allowed the snake to approach Пedy, let alone use a special narcotic to knock Hedy out.
Had he not been present that day, Hedy would have met with misfortune.
It was the same today.
If the person by Hedy's side had been Preston, even if "Mrs. William" had framed Hedy, William would have remained skeptical about the matter out of respect for his good friend Preston.
Preston really didn't know how to cherish.
Even though they already had Lucifer, they still let Lucifer go through so many dangers.
"Do you also like Hedy?" Preston pondered for a moment, his eyebrows raising slightly.
The Zhou family could not have spoken to him in such a tone.
So, this sentence was what Andrew himself wanted to say.
Interesting.
Many people missed his wife, but only Andrew dared to confront him provocatively.
"Or what?" Andrew's eyes slightly narrowed, admitting it openly.
He didn't need to, nor did he want to speak in front of Preston.
"You surprised me, but you don't need to worry about Hedy's safety. I care about her more than you do."
Preston, with one hand in his pocket, was elegant and refined in his expensive white shirt. IIis handsome face wore a smile, exuding confidence and composure.
Andrew instantly became even more angry.
Ile wanted to tell Preston, "You fool, do you know the venomous snake almost killed Hedy?"
But he couldn't speak.
Because once it was said, his identity as the man with the clown mask was exposed.
He could only look at Preston, word by word: "No, you don't care about her as much as I do."
Ile arrived earlier than Preston.
Loved longer than Preston.
Also definitely cared about her more than Preston did.
"Talking about this is pointless, whether you care or not, it can't be proven by mouth." Preston lifted his wristwatch to check the time:
"If there was nothing else, I would go down. Hedy was still waiting for me downstairs."
Andrew didn't respond.
Preston turned and went downstairs as soon as he accepted.
As he left, the chilling warning from Andrew echoed in his ears:
"I would vouch for Hedy, she didn't push 'Madam William', and remember, if you dare to make her cry, I dare to make you bleed."
Preston waved goodbye to Andrew with his back turned, his gaze shifting again and
again.
Actually, speaking as Andrew, saying that latter sentence would have a kind of naive and childish bravado, like a newborn calf not fearing a tiger.
But somehow, Preston didn't feel the "adolescent immaturity" at all, he only felt seriousness and ferocity.
The ruthless seriousness from Andrew.
It seemed that Andrew was far more complex than the naive rich boy portrayed in the investigation materials.
Just this superb acting that could deceive everyone was enough to make him look at
him with new respect.
Preston returned to the car.
"Did the Zhou family want to do business with you?" ITedy thought that this was
probably why the Zhou family sought out Preston.
Preston recalled the words Andrew had just said.
He intended to reveal Andrew's true nature to Hedy, but on second thought, he felt it was unnecessary.
This behavior of tattling was no different from that of a child.
Ile also wasn't worried that Andrew could steal ITedy away.
Thus, he gently hummed in agreement, saying no more.
"What's the progress on your end?" Hedy was referring to the matter of "Rosalie".
Preston: "We've found out about Rosalie's flight back to her homeland years ago and her hometown. On the way here, I've already instructed people to look for Rosalic. We should hear something within ten days. What about you?"
USA was his home turf, when I came to finding people, he was much more efficient than William.
Hedy: "I suspect that Black was the one helping Gloria deceive everyone, or perhaps Gloria offered him some benefits to make him willing to play along. Regardless of which it is, this person is worth a thorough investigation."
Preston nodded.
The car fell into silence.
After a while, ITedy said softly, "I'm sorry, I've caused a big trouble for Mr. Ji."
Gloria was coming at her.
Regardless of whether Gloria's child was involved or not, William would not easily let the King family off the hook.
Cracks would also appear in the friendship between William and Preston.
"In that case, let's not speak of it again in the future," Preston said, his voice magnetic
as he held ITedy's hand, their fingers interlaced.
"I was glad to share this trouble with you."
The reason they shouldered it together was because they were together.
Difficulties and honor, sadness and happiness, bitterness and sweetness, all together,
this was the true face of love.
Hedy lowered her head to look at their hands intertwined together, feeling the warmth emanating from his blood, her gaze gradually softened.
***
At night.
The butler of Castle William came before ПTedy and Preston, and said coldly, "Mr. William invites Mr. Li and Ms. Ellis to visit the castle."
The two exchanged a glance, understanding that Gloria's child had not been saved.
They took the luxury car that came to pick them up and entered the William Castle.
At that moment, Gloria was pale, leaning into William's arms, crying.
In William's red eyes, there was heartache, and there was also sadness.
Black stood by, his face a mix of unbearable pain and anger.
Seeing Hedy and Preston, Gloria cried even louder.
She cried as she said, "I told Ms. Ellis, I'm not the high school classmate who hurt Ms. Ellis. But she forcefully pushed me away, causing the death of our child!" William held Gloria tightly, turning his icy gaze directly at Hedy, like a lion about to kill its prey.
Preston placed his hand on Hedy's waist, pulling her slightly into his arms, indicating
his position.
"Preston, if you still consider me a friend, hand Hedy over to me." William didn't
mince words.
Someone had to be held responsible for the death of his child.
"Hedy didn't push your 'lady'." Preston stated succinctly.
"She pushed her, I saw her push my sister-in-law with my own eyes!" Black stood up,
pointing at Hedy.
"But Andrew from the Zhou family also saw with his own eyes that your 'sister-in-law'
fell by herself," Preston glanced at Blake from the corner of his eye.
It must be said, Andrew's testimony played a very crucial balancing role.
Black said calmly, "Ile is Iledy's classmate and friend, it's quite normal for him to
favor Hedy."
Preston mimicked: "Indeed, but according to you, favoring your 'sister-in-law' is more
normal."
"Sophistry!" Black turned to William, "Big brother, do you trust me and your sister-
in-law?"
William inevitably fell into a dilemma.
Seeing the situation, Gloria took a deep breath, about to burst into tears, but Hedy
interrupted her spellcasting:
"I didn't mind letting Mr. William have his way, but if you want to accuse me, where
is the evidence?"
The destroyed surveillance was a double-edged sword, she could use it too.
Gloria took the phone, gritting her teeth, "Ms. Ellis, you had the guts to push me, don't you have the courage to admit your actions?"
"Just when I thought you had gained some intelligence, you've turned back into an
idiot." Hedy hopelessly glared at Gloria.
"If you claim that I pushed you, and that means I really did, does that mean if you
declare yourself the ruler of the universe tomorrow, all the people in the world have to
kneel before you?"
I really hated it when others slandered me, so, I gave you ten days.
"If you can't produce evidence that I pushed you, I'll see you in court."
Gloria was stunned.
The plot was going in the wrong direction!
Hedy surprisingly turned the tables, she wasn't scared at all!NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
"Hedy, how could you be so shameless!" Blake stood up and rebuked.
"Look at my memory, how could I forget about you?" ITedy shifted her focus, smiling
at Blake.
"Seeing your urgency, I only gave you five days. If you couldn't produce evidence
within five days that I pushed your sister-in-law, then we would meet in court."
Blake: "......"
"Ms. Ellis," William said, exasperated yet amused, "I don't think slander is defined
like that, they were just speaking off the cuff."
Preston's fiancée indeed had some skills.
"It's not just a casual remark," Hedy took out her phone, casually opened a news
website, and was quite distressed:
"The entire foreign internet and USA's network were all saying that I pushed Mrs. William, causing her to have a miscarriage. I was so angry that I couldn't even eat my dinner, all I wanted to do was catch this person... Ah, this person is my alternate
account? Well, never mind then."
Gloria and Blake: "???"
William's breath hitched, "You actually staged it all yourself!"
"No, I was just joking. If Mr. William thinks I staged it all, he can go find evidence. If
he can't find any... well, I'll see him in court."
After Hedy finished speaking, her smile was sincere.
Three words were written in that sincere smile:
I killed indiscriminately.
