Chapter 360
“Secondly, Wynona had used multiple means to persecute me in the training camp and even tried to frame me. I had already let these things slide.
“And thirdly, the cause of Wynona’s death is very strange. The police are still investigating whether it was a suicide or a homicide case.
“But if you want to push all the blame onto me, I can only ask you to hire a lawyer before you talk to me again. Of course, you may not get the result that you want if you bring the matter to court. And because this has nothing to do with me, I’m a victim just like the deceased. Thus, if this matter is being forced onto me, then I’ll definitely not take the blame without defending myself.” Maisie spoke loudly, and everyone heard her clearly.
‘She wouldn’t be so confident if she was really involved in this matter.’
Mrs. Winters was obviously astonished and did not know what to say for a while.
Mr. Winters comforted his wife in embarrassment, “Oh my, we still have to discuss the matter with them politely. There’s no need t o be in such a hurry.”
“You might be afraid of getting into trouble, but I’m not. My daughter is now dead What else should I care about?” Mrs. Winters snorted. “All you rely on is the status that Mr. Goldmann gave you. You’re confident that we won’t be able to sue you even if we want to because you’re Mr. Goldmann’s wife, aren’t you?”
Mi. Goldmann’s identity is obviously up there in the social classes. Even if we want to sue her, can we even manage to file a suit. against Mr. Goldmann’s wife?
However, we’ll give this up. This is just to make Maisie look like a bully by playing as people who don’t have the background and power to resist her. Even if Maisie were to defend herself, it’d only look like nothing more than sophistry. She will be blamed no matter what she does. She’s just a woman who uses her status to force ordinary people like us into compromising.’
Maisie lowered her gaze and smiled. “Since you’re not willing to hire a lawyer, then tell me, what do you want from me?”
Mr. Winters bowed and smiled “Mis Goldmann, we don’t mean to force you. It’s just that our daughter can’t die in vain. She died in your training camp, and her death actually has something to do with you, so—”
Mrs. Winters interrupted him and said bluntly, “You should at least compensate us for our loss, shouldn’t you? No matter what, she’s the daughter that we had done so much to bring up, and she died on your territory.”.
