Chapter 146: Don’t Lie
Garry froze. Vanessa could not believe what she had heard.
Vanessa disagreed with her father’s proposal at all, but when he told her to marry Wade, she was about to change her mind. She would rather die than marry him.
No matter how impulsive she was, she still knew that her father was good to her.
However, Hazel refused the proposal?
“Do you know what you are talking about?” Vanessa could not believe what she was hearing.
“No matter whose baby it was, it is true that you pushed Vanessa into the water so that she had lost her child. You hurt the baby with intention. If we sued you, you would definitely go to jail. Even if you had the best lawyer, only a reduction of punishment would be made. You would still need to stay in jail for years.”
“Child?” Wade was excited. He looked at Vanessa, saying, “You were pregnant? My child? I’m so great!”
After he was caught by Joshua yesterday, Jaxson told him nothing, so he was still confused why they caught him. Later he figured out that they plan to have him identify the woman he had sex with. But he knew nothing about the child.
“Shut up!” Vanessa shouted at him. “You are not qualified to speak here. You are making me sick. I’ll find someone to beat you to death.”
A flash of anger appeared on his face. But then Joshua cut in, “Mr. Wade, what about you deal with this thing later?”
Wade looked at him fearfully. Though Joshua was asking for his opinion, he did not dare to refuse him at all. He snorted and sat in the corner.
“Hazel, have you thought it over?” Garry asked her, “Do you really want to cause destruction to both sides? To be honest, though this thing would influence Vanessa somehow if we send her to another country, nobody would know that there. However, you are not in the same situation, do you really want to spend the most beautiful years in your lifetime in prison?”
Hazel looked at him calmly.
She knew that Garry was threatening her, but she also knew that he was just bluffing. They were actually terrified that Hazel would refuse them.
“I did not push her. Anyway, a good conscience knows no fear.” Hazel said calmly, “I believe the law will prove my innocence.”
“You are so naïve.” Garry snarled, “Joshua, she is innocent, and you are also so thoughtless?”
“I believe Hazel,” Joshua replied. “Let alone that falling into the water was not the reason Vanessa lost her child.”
“You are talking rubbish.” Vanessa pointed at Joshua arguing.
Garry and Mabel were shocked. Vanessa had lied to them once, they partially believed what Joshua said this time.
Garry was dizzy and felt like he was going to pass out.
He originally thought that Vanessa only cheated them into believing that the father of the child was Joshua. He never expected that his daughter would deliberately abort her baby and frame Hazel, but he did believe that she set up Hazel.
What had he done wrong to have a daughter that would punish him? It was retaliation for what Vanessa was doing to Hazel every time Joshua taught her a lesson. Why did she not learn and still continue to hurt Hazel?
This time Garry had run out of methods. If Hazel did not agree to reach a reconciliation privately, they would have to face the crazy revenge of Denmark's Family.
Joshua took out his phone calmly and played what he had recorded.
"None of your business. He treated me badly first, and I will not show kindness if a child could make him lose all his standing and reputation. It could not be more worthwhile!"
“Baby, it’s not that I do not want you, but why are you not the baby of Joshua? Help mom this time."
Vanessa’s words echoed in the ward.
Hazel was taken aback.
She could understand that Vanessa did not want the baby. However, she was so cold and had no regret or emotions when she spoke about the baby—what a cruel-hearted woman.
Vanessa staggered and stepped back.
Those words were said when she was having a conversation with Sam Anderson.
How could Joshua have recorded them?
“You…you have spied on me?” Vanessa roared.
"No. I haven’t." Joshua replied, "A nurse heard and happened to record it. She gave it to me."
“I do not care where the recording came from. It seems that I have nothing to do with the loss of your child.” Hazel said. “I believe the doctor who helped you with the abortion would cooperate with the investigation.”
The Young Family was panicking. They had fewer and fewer chips, which made them so desperate.
Garry insisted, “Joshua, you cannot deny the fact that Hazel pushed Vanessa into the water. If you do not let this go, I will sue her for murder.”
Hazel was left speechless by how shameless they were.
With all the truth in front of them, they still slandered her?
“Joshua, there is no need to be like that. As delicate as Hazel is, if she was jailed, wouldn’t you feel sad?” Mabel added.
Joshua suddenly sighed.
“What’s more, do you have any evidence that showed Hazel is not the one to push me?” Vanessa said.
“Sorry for disappointing you.” Joshua blinked his eyes and said coldly, “I indeed have evidence.”
“It’s impossible!” Vanessa shouted out.
She had confirmed that there was no CCTV around and no one was there at that moment.
He must be lying. It was impossible that he could have any evidence.
“Really?” Hazel looked at him surprisingly. She did not know that!
"Well, Isaac gave it to me this morning.” Joshua smiled at her slightly. “To be honest, I’m also surprised to have such evidence. A servant of the Anderson Family made the video when he was shooting the night view of the lake. The video is also apparent."
“Don’t…don’t lie.” Vanessa grew more restless, “How could the servant of the Anderson Family give the evidence to you?”
