Lucinda looked at the pictures with furrowed eyebrows.
âWho is this?
And why was she beaten this badly? My God! She looks so ugly.
â
Lucinda acted so innocent.
Tessâ hatred for Lucinda flared when she called her ugly.
She endured her pain and managed to shout, âShe.
Sheâs lying!â
Lucindaâs eyes suddenly went wide as if realizing something.
She looked at the pictures, then at Tess and said, âOh shit! Itâs Miss Green.
No wonder sheâs so ugly.
You are really strong, Miss Green.
Although you were badly hurt, you still did your job as a good citizen and came to identify the culprit in person.
â
Nathaniel couldnât hold in his laughter after that.
Alvina and Tess were seething in anger in their seats.
How dare Lucinda act so arrogant in her situation?
Alvina hit the table with her fists harshly and said, âYouâre the one that broke into my house yesterday.
I thought youâd be bold enough to own up to it, but turns out that youâre a coward.
â
Amon hit the table several times with his finger and frowned.
âBe quiet!â
Lucinda put her elbows on the table and supported her chin with her handcuffed hands.
Then she blinked innocently at Amon and said, âOfficer, do you see how sheâs actingâforcing me to admit it?â
Her voice was sweet and charming.
Beside her, Nathaniel frowned at her tone.
Lucinda had never talked to him with such a sweet voice before.
And what was that charming smile for? Was she crushing on Amon?
Jealous, Nathaniel clenched his fists under the table, hurting his already swollen wrists.
Lucindaâs smile was indeed very charming.
So much so that Amonâs heart skipped a bit.
Amon looked at her and explained in a softer tone, âYesterday, the surveillance video of the Green family was damaged, but all the servants pointed you as the culprit.
Can you explain why?â
Lucinda blinked innocently again and said in an aggrieved tone, âBut sir, the Green family is a first-class rich family in Forden.
Their servants would obviously say whatever their masters ask them to.
â
After a short pause, she added more seriously, âAnd from the current evidence you have in your possession, there are no fingerprints of me or Nathaniel found anywhere in that house.
The only witnesses you have, are the members or servants of the Green family.
You canât charge me with just that.
â
Alvina snorted with disdain.
