Chapter 1127

The little girl shook her head.

“Why did you throw the glass at her if you don’t know her?” Marshall asked.

The girl subconsciously glanced at the woman next to her, and the woman immediately said, “She didn’t mean it. She was just too caught up in the moment.”

Marshall looked at her indifferently and said, “I wasn’t asking you.”

The woman shut her mouth after that.

Marshall then turned his gaze to the little girl again and said, “Please answer my question.”

“I… I just don’t like her…” The girl said, and her eyes were red.

“That’s not a reason to hurt someone. You should be responsible for your own actions.” Marshall stood up and grabbed the child’s hand. “Come on. Let’s go to the police station.”

The girl started to panic at the sound of that. She tried to break free from Marshall’s grip and sobbed, No… I don’t want to… I don’t want to go to the police station… Please… I’m sorry… Don’t send me to jail…” Obviously frightened, she cried as she pleaded.

‘My sister said she was sorry. Stop scaring her. All you want is compensation, right? We can pay for Stella’s medical bills.

” The woman standing at the side tried to help.

The crowd could not stand seeing the little girl cry her heart out and tried to plead with Marshall as well.

“She’s still a child. She doesn’t know what she’s doing.”

“Just take the apology and move on. There’s no need to get aggressive.”

“The kid said she was sorry. Stop being so inhumane. You’re an adult for God’s sake.”

Marshall did not let go of the girl no matter what they said. Instead, he dragged her out of the building with a chilling look on his face.

“I don’t want to go—” Seeing that it was no use, the girl blurted, “I haven’t turned fourteen yet. My sister said I wouldn’t have to bear any criminal charges. I’m not going to the police station…”

Marshall paused when he heard that. He finally stopped in his tracks and slowly said, “You’re right. You can be acquitted in the court of law if you’re not over fourteen. But surely you have friends and family, right?

What do you think they’d say if they knew about what you did today? You’d likely be suspended from school because the administrators wouldn’t want you to ruin the school’s image. Other parents would also warn their children to distance themselves from an evil person like you. No one would want to be your friend, and your parents would be ashamed and disgusted by your behavior. Think of the consequences.”

These words successfully instilled fear in the little girl, and she immediately confessed, “I didn’t do it. It wasn’t me. It was my sister. She told me to say that I did it when I actually didn’t.”

As soon as she said that, everyone was shocked and looked at the woman who had defended her sister earlier.

The woman’s face changed in an instant. She poked the little girl’s head and said, “What are you talking about, you ungrateful kid! I brought you to the mall, and this is how you repay me? How dare you try to frame me like that?” She then pushed the little girl away and continued, “I shouldn’t have brought you out here. You should bear the consequences of your own actions.”

The woman was about to leave when Marshall stretched out his arm to block her way.
