Love Enveloped In Lies
Episode 139

Watching the CCTV footage presented by the manager, Scott’s eyes were dark and cold.

It seemed he was right. The person behind the event was someone who wanted Michelle dead.

That the women looked completely abnormal. Although the surveillance couldn’t see every corner of the mall, parts of it still couldn’t escape their eyes.

It was as if a woman had been nervous since entering the mall, and the hand holding the girl was obviously clenched. He looked around as if searching for someone.

Finally, his eyes settled on a position. Scott looked around and found that this corner was the blind spot of the mall.

Then he saw the woman take the girl into a clothing shop and turn around before leaving. The woman eventually appeared in the lift and got out, but her hand had already lost the girl’s hand by then.

Curiously, there was no nervousness on her face. He looked around and suddenly fell to the floor. She began to cry. At this point, Scott discovered that everyone was leaning over the railing and observing the scene below. Nobody noticed that a man in black took the girl’s hand and entered the supermarket.

It was very early at the time. When Michelle found the girl, it was almost dark. It darkened earlier than usual, perhaps because it was early autumn.

Scott had been watching the monitor, waiting for the man in black to come out. But he didn’t see him too late. It was hard to tell the identity of this man in black.

That day, Scott called police officer Joy. Once they knew where the girl was staying, the group of people started walking to the hospital. Scott just wanted to get something from the doctor. After all, the girl didn’t seem to be frozen.

After arriving at the hospital, Scott followed the police into the girl’s room.

When the door was opened, the woman sat down next to the girl’s bed. When she saw Scott arrive, she rose from her chair with a flash of horror in her eyes.

All this was witnessed by the two men who had come in.

Joy and Scott looked at each other and pretended to walk casually towards the bed. Through the eyes of the woman who might know Scott.

“Is the boy better now?” Joy said. He looked at the girl then looked at the woman.

He could clearly see that the girl’s eyes were rolling. Also, her flushed face didn’t seem to be freezing at all.

Scott sat on his side and never spoke. And the women looked at him from time to time, as if he was looking for something. Scott had always been considerate, the look really bothered him.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the girl was such a pretty face, he would have taken her to the police station and questioned her.

Up to this point, Scott didn’t want to delay.

“It’s a million. It’s enough for you and your daughter to spend the rest of their lives. “Joy was still talking, but Scott handed her the cheque and stood in front of the woman.

When the woman heard the number, there was no great surprise on her face. He didn’t seem interested in the money. To be exact, she wasn’t interested in that little million.

Generally speaking, that amount of money was enough to make ordinary people’s eyes light up. However, Scott didn’t see it from the woman.

“I hope you can answer me honestly. Did you do it alone? Scott was silent the whole time, and what Joy said seemed to have been discussed with Scott beforehand, which Scott also wanted to know.

When the woman heard this, her eyes became unfocused and she deliberately looked away.

Scott and Joy looked at each other and seemed to notice something.

“Ma’am, if you don’t come clean, we’ll take you and your daughter to the police station.” Joy was quite unpleasant when he said this, and the woman panicked too. She quickly knelt on the floor and pleaded, hands folded: “Please, please, let go of me and my daughter. We are bound by money. If it wasn’t my husband, I wouldn’t have agreed to do it for money. “

The woman began to cry as she spoke. The girl also got out of bed and knelt on the floor. She pleaded with clasped hands, “Uncle, please let us go. We’re not doing it deliberately. Just to save my father. We can’t live without it. “

The girl looked young, but her consideration moved everyone present.

“I’ll let you go as long as you show me who the person behind it is.” Actually, there was nothing wrong with the mother and daughter. I just wanted to know who was behind it.

The mother and daughter looked at each other innocently.

The answer was exactly as Scott thought, but neither mother nor daughter knew who was behind it. From beginning to end, they had both been brought in by a man in black, but had never seen each other’s true characteristics.

In any case, his original intention was simply to make money and then treat the only man in the family. They didn’t think too much.

Scott couldn’t keep asking until now. He handed him the cheque again and said, “Take the money. When it recovers, you can have a normal life. Don’t ever cheat again. “

“Thank you! We promise never to do it again. “

The woman didn’t refuse this time. After all, was the money in front of her and would no one love her?

Since she’d received the money, Scott wouldn’t let them off so easily. After all, they had something to settle. He had to ask them to explain it clearly to the public. Because he didn’t want his company to find itself in such a situation.

“This report states that the woman has apologised for what happened at Barstow Mall, a subsidiary of the Jiang Group. This incident is due to your mistake and has nothing to do with the person in charge of Barstow Mall. “

It was reported on television, blank-faced by a reporter. In front of the TV, Scott and Michelle looked at each other and then laughed.

Scott held her hand and said painfully, “I’m never letting you leave me again.”

“It was just an accident. It doesn’t happen every day. You mustn’t be so worried.” Michelle looked at him not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

“You little fool, you’re the most important person to me.” Hearing this, Scott felt more heartbroken.

He held her in his arms. That kind of real feeling was nice.

The next morning, as Scott was about to leave the hospital, he was drawn to the busy scene in front of him.

A group of journalists carrying cameras stood in groups outside the hospital door, and five or six security guards lined up, blocking the way to the hospital. The journalists took the microphone and looked around.

Scott frowned and turned to enter the hospital. However, they got out of hand and entered the hospital.

“Mister. Scott, I heard that you rejected the daughter of the chairman of the Howard Group because of your secretary. What is the relationship with your secretary?

“Sir. Scott, there was a witness who took intimate photographs of you and your secretary when the accident occurred at Barstow Mall that evening. When are you going to announce your relationship?

“Your secretary caused quite a stir at Mr. Wyn’s wedding. How do you feel now?”

An aggressive reporter held the microphone close to Scott’s mouth. Everyone was eager to get the best news as soon as possible.

Scott hadn’t expected it all to come out in the media. They didn’t know what kind of blow this would be for Michelle.

“Mister. Scott, if you say nothing, does that mean you accept the relationship between your secretary and Mr. Wyn? I heard it was your secretary who came to seduce Mr. Wyn If you’re with her, you pick up the trash thrown by others, right? “

Scott had seen a lot of these things. If it had been in the past, he would have left without looking back. But today, these people had irritated the root of his heart. He had no choice but to speak up for Michelle. How can a man tolerate his beloved wife being criticised by others?

You can turn around at any time, but you can’t always turn back.

Scott was upset by the group of people. ‘If possible, I really wanted to give them a good thrashing.

In the living room, Michelle was watching television in bed. When he saw the breaking news today, he immediately widened his eyes!

Then he heard a noise from downstairs. It was so loud that people thought he was seriously ill in hospital. It was only when he went to the window and looked down that he realised they were journalists.

Although she hadn’t seen Scott, she was certain that he hadn’t managed to leave the hospital.

At last, his news had made the headlines. More importantly, they even revealed their past. Some even wrote down who he had spoken to and where he had been while studying abroad.

It had to be said that the journalist’s crazy behaviour was really intimidating. Now she wanted to stay away from these people.

She just wanted to live an ordinary life. Having a relationship was something people could do. But even such a simple dream would be shattered, they were terrible.
