"I don't know. I know nothing about it." Isabella said firmly and pretended to know nothing about the death of Kristina. She knew that her mother would protect her.
Glenn also pretended to be innocent. "Isabella says she doesn't know anything. Is there any misunderstanding?"
John had seen a lot of people who tried to deceive others. John said calmly, "Explain to the police."
"Police, police..." Glenn's legs went limp.
Noah and several policemen were coming.
Amelia panicked and whispered in Isabella's ear, "What happened?"
"I don't know. I don't know." Holding her mother tightly, Isabella repeated what she had said nervously, as if she was brainwashing herself.
As a mother, Amelia knew what kind of person her daughter was. Amelia didn't believe what Isabella said.
Amelia said in a very low voice and only Isabella could hear clearly, "Tell me what has happened quietly. Don't miss any details. Only in this way can I help you, understand?"
Isabella trembled and sobbed, without saying anything.
Amelia comforted Isabella. "Don't be afraid. I will save you. You are my sweetheart. I won't let you be taken away by the police. As long as you tell me what happened, I can help you. Do you get it?"
Isabella knew that only her mother could help her and that only her mother would not harm her.
Isabella stopped sobbing, turned her back to everyone and told her mother in a low voice how she instigated Kristina to commit suicide.
Hearing this, Amelia felt relaxed, and her eyes flashed with shrewdness. She patted her daughter on the back and said, "Good girl, don't worry. I promise you won't be taken away by the police. Listen to me carefully and remember every word I say next, okay?"
Hearing her mother's affirmative tone, Isabella's lifeless eyes lit up. She couldn't wait to say, "Mom, tell me what I should do to avoid being sent into jail."
"Later I'll tell the police that you have mental illness and you pretend to be crazy, okay? Only pretending to be insane would help you."
"You won't be guilty by reason of insanity. I know you will definitely make trouble, and I have already done something for you."
"The deputy director of the South District Psychiatric Hospital is my friend. He has made a medical record for you, which can prove that you've got mental disease. You just need to insist that you were insane when you were talking to Kristina. Those words were all nonsense, but Kristina took it seriously and killed herself. You aren't the one to be blamed. Understand?"
Amelia reminded her daughter to take her words seriously.
Isabella nodded repeatedly to show that she understood Amelia's words.
As soon as Amelia and Isabella finished discussing the countermeasures, Noah came.
"Ninja, John." Noah nodded to Nina and John. Before Noah came here, John had told Noah everything that Isabella did.
Noah didn't know until now that the real murderer who killed Kristina was Isabella.
Kristina didn't have to die, but Isabella deceived Kristina with a few words and Kristina chose to commit suicide.
"Noah, here is the material evidence." Nina handed the tassel earring to Noah and gave him a USB flash disk. "This is the evidence that Isabella instigated aunt to commit suicide."
Noah put the two things in the bag and handed them to Tom. "Thank you, Nina."
"Nothing." Nina pursed her lips and smiled, hoping Noah could also smile. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight in the past half month.
He was a little thin, and now he was even thinner.
Looking at Noah's resolute and heroic face, Nina seemed to regard the man in front of her as John.
However, John was holding her hand, right next to her.
