Natalie glanced around before she whispered, “I have a suspicion that it wasn’t them.”
Sally’s eyes widened in shock. “You-”
Natalie quickly covered Sally’s mouth. “Keep it down, will you?”
Sally nodded with her mouth covered.
Only seeing that did Natalie loosened her hold.
Sally tugged Natalie’s arm. “You think it wasn’t Amy and Tiffanie?”
Natalie nodded, “I never interacted much with Amy and Tiffanie. Besides, both she and I are in Team A. So in terms of capability, we’re on par with each other. There’s no reason for her to be jealous of me.”
“But her ranking in Team A was five places lower than yours,” Sally replied.
Natalie disagreed, shaking her head. “Yes, my ranking is higher than hers, but there are also four others who ranked higher than me. So those four are the ones Amy should be jealous of, not me.”
“But you were the only one in the washroom at that time, so maybe Amy thought she could deal with you first,” Sally added.
Natalie chuckled. “And that is why this is merely my assumptions. It could all just be my imagination.”
Alice’s incident has made me realize that sometimes the culprit caught isn’t the actual culprit.
However, Alice was merely a scapegoat that Mr. Gunn got to cover for Jacqueline. But here, there isn’t any reason for the organizers to cover for the real culprit.
Maybe Amy and Tiffanie are truly the culprits.
Although that was what Natalie thought, she still decided to visit Amy and Tiffanie at the prison after the competition had ended.
Otherwise, she would not be able to let go of her worries.
After the meeting had ended, the crowd headed over to the competition venue.
Jessie walked by Natalie’s side while on the way there.
“Ms. Natalie, it’s great that the culprit that harmed you was caught.” Jessie smiled.
Natalie couldn’t be bothered to guess whether Jessie was sincere or not. As such, she smiled faintly and replied, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Jessie waved her hands.
