Chapter 297 Slander
Emelia was so frightened by this scene that she broke out in a cold sweat.
Yvonne fainted on the spot when she fell down, and her forehead was bleeding. The scene was shocking.
Emelia finally understood why Yvonne’s face had turned pale when she turned her back to the stairs. Yvonne knew that she would be in great pain if she fell down like this. She was also afraid.
Yvonne’s trick had seriously injured her. Emelia did not understand why Yvonne had done this.
Since her ex-boyfriend had come to help her, couldn’t she just live a good life and stop making trouble?
Because Yvonne had fallen down the stairs and fainted, and because Yvonne had shouted at Emelia to push her, the people who had attended the dinner immediately gathered around. Some called the police, and some accused Emelia of being so cruel.
Pushing Yvonne down the stairs from such a height meant that she wanted Yvonne dead.
For a moment, everyone turned to look at Emelia with complicated expressions. They had not thought that a seemingly gentle and kind girl like her would be so vicious.
Even if Yvonne was disgusting, Emelia couldn’t hurt her like this.
Emelia saw the misunderstanding in everyone’s eyes and stood still to clarify herself. “I did not push her. It was she who caught me first and then fell down herself.”
Someone in the crowd said, “Who would think that way and roll down the stairs? The stairs are so high. Isn’t she afraid of falling to death?”
Emelia curled her lips and sneered. This was how Yvonne took things too hard. She would rather suffer like this in order to frame Emelia for deliberately hurting others.
The onlookers naturally did not believe what Emelia said. Emelia did not panic, because she had not done anything wrong.
Nina rushed in from outside the crowd. She hugged the pale-faced Emelia and asked, “What’s going on?”
Emelia simply told Nina everything. Nina naturally trusted Emelia. She was very furious because of Yvonne.
Nina glanced at Yvonne, who was still lying on the ground unconscious. She wanted to kick Yvonne to death. She had only gone out to answer a phone call when Yvonne came to frame Emelia.
What a lunatic!
Emelia stopped Nina in time. “Let’s wait for the police.”
Now that so many people were staring at them, they could not make any mistakes.
Hearing the commotion, Kelaina rushed over as well. She stood straight in front of Emelia and Nina, protecting the two young girls. “Emelia is my last disciple. With my moral quality, I guarantee that she definitely won’t do such a vicious thing. Everyone can leave now. Just leave this matter to the police.”
While Kelaina knew that everyone had left, the police and ambulance arrived at the same time. Yvonne was sent to the hospital, while Emelia was taken away by the police to cooperate with the investigation.
Julian had not attended the dinner at all, because he did not want to attract public attention. In addition, he had arranged two bodyguards for him, so he did not follow.
The two bodyguards did not expect that Yvonne would hurt herself to frame Emelia.
This time, Emelia’s body was not hurt at all, but her reputation was about to be ruined by Yvonne.
Once Yvonne was sure that Emelia had deliberately hurt her, the crime would be too serious.
On the way to the police station, Julian called Phil Henderson as soon as possible and asked him to return as soon as possible to fully take charge of Emelia’s case.
After arriving at the police station, the two bodyguards blamed themselves. Julian did not blame them. No one expected Yvonne to be so mean.
For a moment, Julian sincerely hoped that Yvonne would just smash her to death so that she would not come out to harm people all day long.
Although Phil was abroad, he still sent his most capable lawyer to the police station and bail Emelia out.From NôvelDrama.Org.
At this moment, Yvonne had woken up in the hospital. There were many bruises after her rolling down from the stairs, as well as concussion symptoms. She immediately said through her ex-boyfriend Eric, “Emelia is jealous of everything she has now, and because of the past grievances with her, she wanted to kill me and pushed me down the stairs viciously.”
Yvonne also made public her injury inspection report, claiming that she would sue Emelia for going to prison.
Because Yvonne’s current situation was really miserable, people online scolded Emelia. They all said that she looked gentle and kind on the surface, but in fact, she was vicious and insidious.
When Emelia followed Julian out of the police station, she was surrounded by reporters.
Emelia was protected in Julian’s arms. The two bodyguards led the way, while Phil’s lawyer walked on the other side of Emelia, helping her block the reporters next to her.
“Miss Jones, have you really pushed Yvonne?”
“What happened to you two at that time?”
“Yvonne said that she would put you in jail. What do you want to say?”
The reporters threw a series of questions to Emelia, who couldn’t stand still anymore, but she bit her lips and calmed down. She raised her hand and gently tugged at the corner of Julian’s clothes, indicating that she had something to say.
Julian stopped his steps, using his sturdy arms to firmly protect Emelia.
Emelia looked at the reporters and said righteously, “I’ll make it clear again: I did not push Yvonne. God is watching what she’s doing. I have a clear conscience.”
When the matter had just happened, Emelia was still a little flustered, but now she had completely calmed down. She had never done anything that would hurt the world, so she was naturally not afraid of being slandered.
“I believe in the fairness of the law, and I also believe that the law will give me justice.” After saying these words, Emelia bowed her head and left, escorted by Julian.
After Julian and Emelia got into the car and left, Phil’s lawyer turned around and told them, “I just learned from the police that this matter is a little tricky.”
“The police said that they went to get the surveillance video of the hotel at the dinner party, but all the cameras that could capture Miss Jones’s location at that time were destroyed, leaving no video evidence.”
“Because Yvonne is the victim now. What she said is the only evidence.”
Yvonne was now certain that Emelia was deliberately pushing her. Without evidence, Emelia would not be able to prove her innocence.
After listening to the lawyer’s words, Emelia’s face turned pale. Just now, she had firmly clarified that she had not pushed Yvonne. It seemed that Yvonne had planned this beforehand.
If Emelia could not provide evidence to prove her innocence, then the crime of intentional hurting would be set up. At that time, not only would her reputation be ruined, but she would also be in prison.
It was not a small matter to deliberately hurt people. It was a criminal case.
Emelia sucked in a cold breath.
Julian had been holding her hand since he saw her at the police station. He could feel her fear at this moment. He hugged her in his arms and said, “Don’t be afraid. We’ll definitely find evidence.”
At all costs, he had to protect Emelia.
