Her voice was floating. No matter how strong a person's psychological quality was, as long as she did something wrong, she would feel uneasy.
I glanced at her and continued to hum on the ground.
Brooke was probably terribly scared by me. He didn't know the extent of my injuries.
Calvin suddenly turned on the light in the living room, and the room was totally bright.
The crystal lamp was so bright that I could clearly see the anxiety in Fairy Dixon's eyes.
"Why are you all looking at me? What does it have to do with me?" She was still stubborn and reluctant to admit mistakes.
Calvin looked at her, "Take out your cleansing oil."
She stubbornly resisted, "I didn't bring cleansing oil."
"Then what do you use at night?" I clearly saw that she put on makeup during the day, but now she was completely makeup-free.
She hesitated, "I use cleansing water!"
"Sophie Dixon." Calvin called her full name, and I could hear his tone full of impatience.
Fairy Dixon bit her lip and looked at him for a while, and then she reluctantly turned back to the room to bring the cleansing oil.
She took a bottle and stuffed it into Calvin's hand, "The bottle is full. I haven't opened it yet. Don't wrong me!"
Calvin looked down, and then stepped into their room.
Fairy Dixon stumbled to follow him, "Hey, Calvin, what are you doing? What are you going to do?"
Fairy Dixon's panicked voice came from the room, "Don't check my box at will. I said there was no cleansing oil, it’s not me...this..."
"What is this?"
"I..."
It seemed that Calvin found the bottle of cleansing oil that had not been completely poured.
How many cosmetic bottles did Fairy Dixon need to bring? She just went abroad for a trip, but she brought several bottles of cleansing oil. I continued to lie down. Calvin strode out, opened the bottle and smelled it under his nose, and then he squatted down and dipped a little oil on the ground to smell it.
Suddenly, he put up a long face.
He looked up at Fairy Dixon. I saw Fairy Dixon's face gradually turning pale.
Yes! Seeing her horrified now, I felt very happy.
I gloated to observe the subtle changes in her expression on her pale and paper-like face. Calvin handed the cleansing oil to her, "What is this?" "I don't know..." She avoided Calvin's gaze, "Maybe, maybe the bottle leaked but I don't know it."
Well, "The bottle leaked" was a good reason.
But the two present were smart people. I was afraid that even she herself did not believe this botched excuse.
Everything was clear now. I was satisfied with the result.
Now Calvin and Brooke both knew what had happened.
The two of them both screwed up their faces.
"Call the police." Brooke said firmly.
Fairy Dixon was dumbfounded immediately, "Don't call the police! I said the bottle leaked! It has nothing to do with me!"
Calvin looked at me, "Are we going to send her to the hospital first?"
I had been lying on the ground for ten minutes, but the floor was not cold either. Maldives had a tropical climate and it was very hot outside. Gradually, the sky was about to dawn.
Fairy Dixon was completely panicked, she begged Brooke with a crying tone, "Brooke, I really don't mean it. Maybe, maybe I took the cleansing oil to the bathroom to wash my face, and then I accidentally spilled it here. I really don't mean it."
Her argument was an indefensible lie. Why did she wash her face late at night? Besides, there was a bathroom in their room, why did she go to the bathroom outside?
However, I could also see that Brooke didn't really intend to send her to the police station.
