Rosie stood up in astonishment and shook her head violently. It wasn’t me! You’re talking nonsense!

Make such statements again, and I’ll sue you for defamation!”

Chris did not argue with her. He turned around and said confidently to the police officer, “It’s her. She

asked me to do all this. She followed Miss Corinne from the Lunar Century Manor to the shore of

Yonder River, and she chose me to do the job because she saw Corinne talking to me when I was

distributing flyers!

“She picked up the cell phone that Miss Corinne dropped and used her cell phone to transfer the

money to me in advance. She then deleted the transfer record and asked someone else

to send the phone to the police station and act as if they came across the cell phone by chance.

“Each step was carefully calculated by her to make Miss Corinne the prime suspect!”

After hearing that, Anya got up from Lucas’s arms in shock and looked at her best friend in disbelief.

“Rosie! How could you do something like that? I told you a long time ago not to cause trouble with

Corinne for my sake. Whatever that’s between myself and Jeremy has nothing to do with Corinne, and

I don’t like it if you do that sort of thing!”

Rosie shook her head in a panic. “But Anya, it wasn’t me! I swear it wasn’t me!”

Anya had an extremely disappointed expression after seeing how stubborn Rosie was. She did not

want to say another word

and took a deep breath before turning around and wiping her tears in her brother’s arms.

Rosie was at a loss after losing her best friend’s trust. She glared at Corinne angrily and pointed at her,

saying, “You did this! You told this gangster to frame me just to absolve yourself from being the

suspect! You’re evil, Corinne!”

Corinne cocked her eyebrow and had a look of disgust in her eyes. “All I did was tell my lawyer to find

the mother and son and save them. I didn’t interfere with anything else, and I- just like everyone else

here–only knew who truly instigated him when he mentioned your name. Didn’t think it’d be you again,

Miss Rosie.”

Rosie became frantic. “Don’t try and pretend to be innocent, Corinne! You won’t succeed!”

Red–eyed and distraught, she turned around and said to Lucas, “You can’t believe a word she says,

Lucas! She deliberately designed this to clear her name and frame me!”

Lucas glanced at Rosie, then at Corinne, and there was a pensive yet complicated expression in his

eyes.

The two police officers walked toward Rosie and took out some handcuffs.

“Miss Rosie, please stay here and cooperate with the investigation!”

Rosie backed away in panic and could not accept that she was going to be handcuffed. “Anya… Help

me…”

Anya could not bear to be angry with her best friend when the latter begged for help. She walked up to

Corinne to try and hold her hand, but Corinne politely avoided her.

An awkward expression appeared on Anya’s face and she withdrew her hand resentfully while saying

somewhat regretfully, “I’m sorry, Corinne. I didn’t know that this was the truth… You suffered so much

these few days, but Rosie made a mistake for my sake in a moment of confusion. Is it okay if you let

this one slide, forgive her, and give her another chance?”
