Chapter 313 Kelly fetched a chair and a cushion for Granny Atherton to sit on. The old lady thus sat, her
aura impeccable even when she did. Lola balled her small fists tightly as she aired her feelings to
Granny Atherton. “Grandma, I admit that it’s my fault that I allowed the driver to run Catelyn over, but I’ve
apologized for that already. Still, Miss Catelyn insisted that I had spiked her water with laxatives! I swear
that I didn’t even know what bottle of water she took. How am I supposed to spike her?”
Granny Atherton gestured for Kelly to help Lola up from kneeling.
Pride swelled within Lola as she glanced at Catelyn. ‘I have nothing to be afraid of as long as I have
Granny with me!
“Edwin is probably going to hate me for this, but I have to say it.
“Don’t be fooled by Catelyn, Edwin. She’s always been wild and uncultured since she was young, and
the one thing she does best was seducing men by pretending to be weak. This supposed laxative
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtincident probably is all made up, and she must’ve hated me to the point she could eat laxatives just so
she could slander me.”
Cedrick looked up at Lola. His lips curled upward as he asked, “You’re saying that she ingested laxatives
just for revenge?”
Lola felt diffident when her eyes met Cedrick’s.
However, she remembered that the employees that were in it had all been sent overseas. With this, she
nodded in response. “If it’s not for revenge, it’s slander, because I didn’t do it!”
Cedrick was expressionless. He stared blankly at Lola as if he was looking at a circus clown.
He then turned toward Eason and gestured at him with his eyes. Eason understood what he meant
immediately and took out a laptop, injecting a USB into the
port.
Seconds later, the screen showed a video divided into two parts. The first part was of Lola walking in the
corridor and whispering into a female employee’s ear before passing a small bottle of white liquid to her.
The second part of the video showed the same female employee injecting the white liquid into an
unopened bottle of mineral water, and her giving the bottle to Catelyn. She then watched as Catelyn
drank the water and left with a smile.
Lola was completely frozen in place.
How…was that possible? She was certain that she was cautious and avoided the places where she
knew had cameras!
Where were these footage clips from?!
Cedrick stared at Lola contemptuously like he would with an ant on the floor.
Nobody but him could bully Catelyn!
Meanwhile, Catelyn was stupefied to see the clip. She, too, was just as shocked at how quick they were
to find the footage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone in the room was spotted with different emotions. Kelly, for one, was in disbelief. She could not
believe Lola, whom she had respected all this while, turned out to be such a woman. Granny Atherton,
on the other hand, remained cold and expressionless. It was as if she already knew, as if none of it had
anything to do with her.
A large bead of sweat rolled down from Lola’s forehead. She was shivering in fear as her face was
drained of blood.
“Grandma, this is a misunderstanding! The footage has been edited; you have to believe me!” Lola
panicked as she stammered in defending herself, “Cedrick, I can’t believe you’d fabricate a video just to
protect Catelyn!” Cedrick pursed his lips, his eyes filled with cold rage. He could not believe that this
woman would still try to get away from the truth! Catelyn trusted Cedrick to not fabricate anything and
said, “If Miss Atherton and Granny Atherton insisted that it’s fake, you’re free to have someone
investigate it professionally.”
