NovelEnglishNash's deep gaze fell on Nina. Initially, he would worry about Nina being at a disadvantage. Regardless of whether she pushed Stella or not, he would stand by her side.
If the Jasper family wanted to send her to prison, he would resort to any means to threaten them to get her out. Nina signaled him not to speak, and he remained silent throughout. Only when she took charge did he feel relieved.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe police took the voice recorder and looked at Stella and her mother. "If the situation is true, this is attempted murder. Even if the person is unharmed, you'll still face legal consequences." Seeing the police say this, Stella's mother felt they were biased towards Nina. "Officer, you haven't clarified the situation yet. This woman is the one with the problem, not my daughter. Are you siding with her? Do you think you can bully us just because we're not from here? This is outrageous!" Her words were severe, causing the police to change their expressions. "Are you questioning us?" Mr. Jasper realized the situation had turned around. Even the most meticulously synthesized recording would have discrepancies, and Nina dared to hand it over, indicating its authenticity.
It was not the tto provoke them or resist the police. He quickly adopted a conciliatory tone, pulling his wife back. "Officer, my wife won't speak anymore. Please don't take it to heart. We trust the police and believe in the final outcome. If my daughter is really at fault, our family will provide the necessary compensation." He spoke kindly, trying to absolve Stella of guilt. If she was indeed at fault, he was willing to compensate Nina and avoid escalating the situation.
Seeing Mr. Jasper go from arrogant to accommodating so quickly, Yvonne could not help but roll her eyes. "He was so arrogant just now, and now he's changing his tune faster than flipping a book." She had lost all respect for them.
Stella continued to deny, "It wasn't me, it really wasn't me. I didn't do this..." But even as she spoke, tears streamed down her face.
Mrs. Jasper, fearing for Stella's legal troubles and feeling sorry for her, hugged her and comforted her. The police did not want to hear any excuses. The law was always impartial, and everything had to follow procedure. "Alright, Jasper, if you're feeling better, cwith us for a little trip." "I don't want to! I don't want to!" Stella exclaimed in terror, quickly shrinking back and hiding behind her mother, wanting to keep as far away from them as possible.
Mr. Jasper also did not want to see this outcome. "Can you give us a few more days? Wait until my daughter's better." Seeing Stella's speed and strength, Yvonne sneered, "She's retreating pretty fast, still got plenty of strength. Doesn't look like someone who's sick." Mr. Jasper pursed his lips, then glanced at Nina, who remained silent. He spoke kindly, "Miss Nina, we misunderstood the situation earlier, acted unreasonably. I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold grudges. You see, you're fine, and if my daughter has truly made a mistake, I'll educate her well after we return. Let's not make a mountain out of a molehill. We can discuss any conditions."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNina looked at Mr. Jasper. She knew this type of family too well. If something could be solved with m money, they would not bother with other methods. Just like Stella mentioned pushing her into the sea and finding someone to take the blfor money.
Today, it was only because she had evidence in hand that Mr. Jasper gave her any had notation: If she Jasper might have turned a blind eye even if he knew his daughter was responsible. So, they did not really understand their mistake. "I am holding grudges today," Nina said, looking at Mr. Jasper. "Mr. Jasper, I believe I made myself clear earlier. There's no need to say more." Nina's determined stance did not leave Mr. Jasper any dignity.
Mr. Jasper, who had navigated through life for so many years, had never once spoken Kindly to someone he considered beneath him, especially not a young girl. Now, he did not know where to hide his embarrassment.
