“You’ve found it?” Elena looked at him, “When did you find it? Do you have a witness who saw exactly how I asked Caroline to do this?”
“Though I don’t have a witness, I am sure it’s you who asked Caroline to hurt Emma! Or why did Caroline go to your villa? Besides, it’s you who helped her leave H City! This is evidence!”
Elena sneered, “Mr. Bush, you are slandering me again and again. Do you know why I keep enduring you?”
Mason saw her strange smile and couldn’t help stepping back.
“I endure all the suffering you put me through because I thought I owed you. But you went too far after I met all your needs. Now, you are slandering me again. Mr. Bush, you should learn how to be sensible, shouldn’t you?”
He should wake up from dream of being a good father to her! He should learn how to face the reality. And he should learn to know what kind of people she was!
Hearing her words, Mason was sullen, “You are denying it?”
“How can I admit something I never do?” she asked.
Mason looked at her as if seeing a stranger, “Elena, do you know why I adopted you?”
Elena was interested in his question. Mason laughed, saying in a sarcastic and disappointed tone, “Because you look like her so much. She is untamed, stubborn, but kind-hearted. How about you? Though you look like her, but you are quite different from her! You are a devil! You are so horrible that I don’t even want to be close to you!”
Elena stared at him and snorted, “Listen, I’m not her. I am me! Mr. Bush, Don’t forget my name. I’m Elena, not Joanna! How can I become her? I will never be Joanna!”
She was the devil? So what! She suffered a lot from being kind and nice. That was enough to her! She couldn’t bear it. She wouldn’t bear it anymore!
Mason turned pale because of anger, “Is that the reason why you hurt Emma?”
“Mr. Bush!” Elena frowned slightly, reminding him, “Just like I told you. I never hurt Emma. I won’t admit something I never do. Are you going to push me into it?”
“If you didn’t do it, who did it!” Mason was so confident that Elena was the sinner. He was so sure that Elena did it to Emma. “Emma didn’t do anything bad to others. She grew up under my watch. I know her nature. She isn’t always nice or kind. Sometimes she did the bad things just because she envies you. But she never hurts anyone else like you did!”
Without hesitation, Elena picked up the tea cup on the table and splashed the tea on his face! The cold tea wet his hair and clothes. At this moment, drops of tea dripped on the soft carpet.
She looked calm, putting down the cup gently, as if she did nothing.
Mason was irritated by her, yelling, “Elena!”
“No need to shout, Mr. Bush. I can hear it.” Elena curled her lips and looked at him with a big smile, “I just think Mr. Bush is too excited and wants to calm you down.”
Mason was so angry that he could hardly breathe, patting his chest and trying to take breaths, “Do you really want to ruin our relationship built in these years? Don’t forget it’s me who raised you up!”
“No, you are wrong...”
Elena clenched her fists, “You yourself are ruining this relationship. Don’t blame it on me. Have you really investigated it before you come to question me?”
He cared about Emma too much. So he lost his mind again and again! And he kept blaming on the innocent person again and again.
Mason stood there blankly. The cold tea wet his clothes, and he felt cold, too, not only physically, but also mentally.
