Chapter 199 The Truth
Two hours after Sophia's miscarriage, but there was already lots of news on the Internet.
Reporters did not dare to go to the police station for an interview. So, they came to the club.
If they didn't leave now, they would be pestered by the reporters and would waste time asking their
questions.
Daisy was still being questioned in the police station. She insisted that Sophia fell by accident. It had
nothing to do with her.
However, others were staring at her contemptuously, as if they were looking at a murderer. Yeah, a
murderer.
"Jane, Pearl, why are you here?"
Daisy was surprised when she saw them come here. She had done many bad things before. Could it
be that they were here to accuse her?
Daisy had a way to expose Sophia's trick, but she didn't want to use it now.
She would wait for the incident to go viral. Then, she will tell the truth.
She wanted to see everyone turn from sympathizing with Sophia to blaming her. Just imagining it felt
so great!
"We come here to help the investigation. What else are we here for?" said Pearl.
Not long ago, she had just beaten Daisy up. She felt embarrassed to see Daisy now.
But Daisy was no longer scheming. Pearl liked honest people. That was why she was willing to move
on and do business with Daisy.
"Mrs. Duncan, Ms. Pearl, have a seat, please."
The office had an awful smell of smoke.
William opened all the windows and led Jane to a well-ventilated spot.
The police officer was embarrassed.
"We worked overtime last night. All work and no rest. Only smoking can keep our minds sharp."
A young police officer explained. In theory, they were not allowed to smoke. But they often had long
meetings, which clouded their judgment. Smoking cigarettes was refreshing.
"I know. Never mind. My wife is pregnant. She can't smell it."
William didn't want to make things hard for them.
Jane took a few deep breaths before asking, "Is there anything I can do?"
The officers had thought Mrs. Duncan must have been difficult to get along with. But it turned out she
was so gentle.
Beep!
When a police officer was about to speak, the phone rang.
His expression turned rather serious. He hung up and said solemnly, "We just got the news that Sophia
was so devastated that she slashed her wrist."
Being infertile was too cruel for a woman. Even if there had been huge progress in medicine and
science, some damage could not be reversed.
"Suicide?"
Daisy sneered. Sophia climbed on a building first, which caused a sensation. But she later changed her
mind and decided to slit her wrist.
There were many people in the hospital. Even if she slit her wrist in the bathroom, how could she not
be found? Did she want to die? Daisy didn't think so.
She was just forcing the Floyds to allow her and Andrew to get married.
If the incident was big enough, Andrew would have no choice but marry her.
If he dumped her after miscarriage, his reputation would be ruined.
Harrison had been a defender of family interests. He would take stock and minimize the damage.
"Is she dead?" asked Daisy casually.
She was fiddling with her fingers in the chair playing.
The sarcasm in her tone was so obvious that it infuriated the young policeman, who snapped, "It was
you. You pushed her and caused her miscarriage. Now you're gloating!"
"You are a police officer, not a gossipy woman. Do you have any evidence? Did you see me push her?"
Daisy retorted. Great! Everyone hated her now. But soon their hatred would turn into sympathy.
She didn't need others to get her out of it.
If Jane and Pearl spoke up for Sophia, then they would regret it.
"You ... are mean!"
The policeman's face turned red as he stumbled for words.
There were only Daisy and Sophia in the kitchen. If Daisy didn't push her, could it be that Sophia slip
on purpose?
Fat chance!
"How is she?" asked Jane.
She frowned. Sophia wasn't the person who would commit suicide.
Probably the bad news was too overwhelming, and she couldn't handle it.
Jane pitied her, but she wanted to know the truth.
"She's being treated. It doesn't seem to be life-threatening."
Robert just called the hospital and knew Sophia had lost too much blood. She needed a blood
transfusion. As she and Andrew had the same blood type, he gave his blood.
"What a loving couple!" Daisy tutted.
Daisy opened her bag, took out her lipstick and mirror, and touched up her lips. She was joyful.
Fortunately, she had lived another life. She wouldn't forget the pain she had suffered in her previous
life.
If she continued to be that naïve, carefree girl, she would die.
"Mrs. Duncan, Miss Pearl, can you tell me what happened?"
"Please tell the truth," the police officer added.
Relationships among rich families were complicated. The police were afraid that they cover up
something to protect Daisy.
"Alright."
Jane and Pearl looked at each other and told everything they saw, except for some unimportant details.
"In other words, you didn't see Miss Daisy push her?"
The police officer asked again.
Pearl was a bit pissed off. Did she make herself clear? Or did he not understand English?
Why was he pushing her? Did he want her to lie and tell him she had seen it?
Before Pearl got furious, Jane stopped in time.
They were telling everything they knew, but the officers seemed to be very urgent. It was as if they
were so sympathetic to Sophia that they misguided Jane and Pearl into saying Daisy was the culprit.
"I thought you want evidence, so we came here. We can't help too much, but at least we have to fulfill
our duties as citizens," said Jane.
She was not a pushover. The way the police officer asked the question infuriated her. One shouldn't ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
have prejudgment when it came to handling cases.
"I won't lie. Everyone knows that I don't get along well with Daisy. My business Only One and Snow of
the Cart Group are rivals. Anything ugly could happen between us. But I can't slander her. It's unfair to
her," Jane snapped.
Everyone was equal before the law. The truth was the truth. Those who distorted would never end well.
The police officer apologized to her.
But he still thought Daisy caused the incident because of her poor manner.
"If you say so, then so be it," said Daisy.
She didn't want to explain. She planned to stay in the detention center for a day and refused to call her
lawyer.
But what caught her unawares was that Jane and Pearl were on her sides. They told the truth.
Jane was still different now.
