A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 493 I Have Someone In My Heart

"Are you telling the truth? Did you really see Linda push your grandfather into the pond with your own

eyes?"

Lenny didn't know about Rosy's scheme. In fact, he wasn't even sure what was going on.

"Yes, father. I saw it with my own eyes. Why won't you trust me? I can tell you exactly what happened.

Jessie and I had nothing to do after dinner, so we decided to go to the plum garden to look at the fishes

in the pond. As soon as we had set foot in the garden, we heard grandfather and Linda arguing over

something. Then, we saw Linda pushed him twice before she finally toppled him into the pond."

Linda got furious as she heard what Rosy had said. "I had never pushed grandfather. You're framing

me for something I didn't do. You're lying! Rosy Nalan, what are you trying to do? Why are you framing

me?"

"I'm not telling any lies. That's what I had seen just now. Linda Xia, you are really evil. You have pushed

grandfather into the pond, and you even dare try to deny it even though people have seen what had

happened. If it were not for Jessie and me, no one would ever find out what you had done!"

"You're sick!"

"Stop shouting at each other, okay? You two are telling different stories. Now, we have no choice but to

wait and see. Let's hope that father will recover soon. Then, he will tell us what had really happened, "

said Lenny.

Spite flashed through Rosy's swollen eyes when she heard Lenny's remarks.

She would never let that happen! If he did recover, then what she had done today would all be in vain.

Rosy hadn't expected that Linda would bring someone who was good at kung fu with her. It was the

only unexpected aspect of this plan.

Even though Rosy had seen Linda come to the Nalan clan's house with Bun before, it had been a long

time since Bun had accompanied Linda. For the last few months, Linda had only brought Anna with her

to the Nalan clan's house. Anna was a doctor, so she wasn't capable of jumping into the water to save

a drowning old man. If it were not for Bun, Lord Nalan would surely be dead by the time he was pulled

out from the pond. Nobody would be able to save his life, not even a doctor. Besides, Linda was eight

months pregnant, and it would be easy to have her taken away if she was with Anna. The ideal

situation had changed all because of Bun.

Lucky for Rosy, Lord Nalan had hit his head against the marble around the edge of the pond when he

fell into the water. It seemed like he had gotten injured badly. He even had lost a lot of blood.

Even if he wouldn't die, he was so badly injured that he might become a vegetable.

Rosy had already fantasized that the Nalan clan's fortune would all be hers...

After a short while, a policeman arrived. In fact, he didn't want to come to the house of a powerful clan

because, when he got the call, he immediately understood that this accident might concern a private

vendetta within the clan. He couldn't afford to offend anyone there, so it would be a difficult situation.

But since someone had called the police, he had to come. The state had its laws, and no one should

break them.

"What happened to Lord Nalan?" A policeman asked Lenny politely.

The policeman was an old guy with a moustache and a big belly. The way he talked to Lenny showed

that he already had experienced handling this kind of situation.

"Someone had pushed him into the pond. My daughter said that it was her..." said Lenny, pointing his Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

finger at Linda.

The policeman turned around and looked at the woman whom Lenny was pointing at. Her face looked

a little familiar to him. It seemed that he had seen her somewhere before. After much thought, he

recognized her. She was the Lady of the Mu clan, Charles Mu's wife.

As far as he knew, she was the Lady of the Xia clan as well.

Everyone in SH city knew about the marriage of Charles Mu and Linda Xia. The media were all over

their wedding, and everyone was talking about it.

How could he arrest Lady Linda, the lady of the Mu clan?

The policeman was standing still, hesitating. He glanced at Rosy and then at Linda. It seemed that

even he was at a loss what to do.

Legally speaking, Linda was a suspect now, and he should bring her to the police station to get her

statement, but he wouldn't dare to. She was the Lady of the Mu clan. How could he take her to the

station? Charles Mu was a powerful man, and the Mu clan bore a lot of weight around the city. No one

in the police department would dare question 'Lady Linda' unless he didn't care about his job.

He had been a policeman for over 20 years, and it was hard to get to his current position. He surely

didn't want to lose his job over this case.

"Excuse me, sir. Are you really not going to do anything? She is a suspect. Shouldn't you bring her to

the police station to get her statement?" said Jessie deliberately.

She had noticed the policeman's frightened face, and she was afraid that he would cut Linda some

slack, so she once again pointed out to everyone that Linda was a suspect. He was in a pickle at the

moment.

Now, the policeman regretted having changed shifts with another policeman. If he hadn't changed

shifts, he wouldn't be here today, and he wouldn't have to handle such a difficult situation.

Linda understood the policeman's feelings. It was pointless to stand here to argue who had done this to

Lord Nalan. Linda wasn't worried about it since she had done nothing wrong, so she told the

policeman, "Sir, you can take me to the police station to record my statement. It's okay. I didn't do it

anyway."

The policeman was very grateful for Linda's considerate suggestion. He nodded and said, "Okay, My

Lady, please come with me."

Before Linda walked out of the room, she turned around and glared at Rosy. There was coldness in

Linda's eyes; it sent shivers down Rosy's spine. The look on Linda's face seemed like she wanted to

skin Rosy alive.

"Rosy, don't you think there would be consequences for what you have done? God is watching us. I

hope you can still sleep tight at night, " Linda said coldly.

After Linda had finished speaking, Bun helped her walk out of the house. It wasn't a big deal to make a

statement. Linda didn't want to make things difficult for the policeman.

Charles had intended to pick Linda up after he finished business meetings. Every time Charles would

think of Linda, his heart filled with joy.

He couldn't wait to see his beloved wife.

It was almost 7:30 PM.

"Paul, I'll leave things to you. I need to go pick up Linda first, " said Charles.

Paul was organizing the documents. Charles used to check it one more time personally. He was detail-

oriented, and he wanted to make sure that everything was done right, but this time he handed it all over

to Paul because he missed Linda very much.

"Young Master, I don't think you're focusing on your work anymore. All you are thinking about is Lady

Linda. Are you that anxious to see her?"

"Yes, I don't know why. I am missing her very much today." Charles nodded and smiled.

Every time Charles mentioned Linda, a big smile painted on his face. The way Charles treated Linda

made Paul feel miserable about himself. He had been single for many years.

"Young Master, please, you don't need to rub you and Lady Linda's love in. I'm a single man. Please be

considerate of me, " said Paul with a bitter smile.

"Don't worry, Paul. You are the Vice CEO of the Mu Group, and you are also my father's sworn son. It

should not be difficult for you to find someone, " said Charles.

Paul became dazed for a second, and then he said with a sigh, "Young Master, I have some one in my

heart, but I could only have her in my heart. I have to keep distance from her..."
