NovelEnglishChapter 159
Abby never expected Pearl to uncover all this damning evidence. Fear coursed through her, causing
her legs to give way, and she fell to the ground.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Weren’t you so confident earlier? Why are you suddenly so quiet?”
Pearl scoffed and watched as Abby shook because she knew all the evidence was real
“I didn’t do any of that. You fabricated all of them!” Abby’s voice trembled uncontrollably. Confronted by
Pearl’s smug expression, the world seemed to spin around her.
Pearl pressed on, “Explain how I fabricated these. If you doubt the photos, I can get the video
authenticated.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRichard, who had been silently observing, was shocked to his core. He never imagined that Abby, who
had grown up with his family and was like a sister to him, would attempt to harm someone, especially
his mother.
“Explain yourself, Abby!” He wanted to give her a chance to deny it.
“I… Rick, you know how well Aunt Susan treats me. Why would I hurt her?”
Richard took a deep breath. “Why should I believe you?”
“I…” Abby had more to say, but the door swung open, and Hugo entered with a nurse for his rounds.
He glanced at the tense atmosphere in the room and chuckled. “What’s going on here? This looks
pretty intense.”
“Hughie… “Abby bit her lip and pleaded to Hugo, “Hughie, how could I possibly be responsible for
trying to harm Renee and Aunt Susan? I don’t even know Renee, and I have a great relationship with
Aunt Susan. Why would I want to hurt her?”
Hugo looked down and smiled. “Well, I believe you. Let me take a look at the evidence.”
He picked up the photos from the table, examined them, then shook his head and placed them back
down. “These pictures don’t prove anything. Transferring money? That doesn’t prove it’s for harming
Renee. The one with Mom is just a blur. You were simply checking the tube. How did that turn into
pulling it out?”
Hugo effortlessly turned the situation in Abby’s favor.
Abby breathed a sigh of relief as she gazed at Hugo and managed to force a smile. “Yes, you’ve
always understood me, just like when we were kids.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRichard, though still doubtful, couldn’t fully trust his judgment.
“Well, Mom is still unconscious. How can we be sure Abby really did all this?”
Abby nodded vigorously. “Yes, she’ll vouch for me and say I’ve been wrongly accused once she wakes
up!”
She didn’t know when Susan would regain consciousness, but she realized this was her chance to
clear her name. Thankfully, Hugo was there or she wouldn’t be able to talk her way out of this.
“If that’s the case, Abby might not be the mastermind behind all this.” Richard raised his brows. “Could
you please step out for a moment? I need to speak with Pearl.”
Hugo and Abby left the room.
Once outside, Hugo dropped his cheerful expression. “You’re so careful. Pearl would have destroyed
you if I didn’t show up.”
Abby expressed her gratitude to him, “Thank you, Hughie. I would have been in serious trouble without
your help. I might even have ended up in jail.”
