Chapter 1092 I Didn’t Do It
No matter how unwilling Evelyn was, she couldn't escape her fate. As Derrick told his men to take her away, Nicole stood aside and enjoyed the show.
As Evelyn roared angrily, she was dragged downstairs.
The butler stood aside and looked at Nicole. Then, he lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Old Mrs. Gould is downstairs, Miss Anderson. She was furious when she heard that Miss Wrenn was behind this."
Hearing his words, Nicole nodded. She still remembered how Rita threw away her image and safety to protect her. It even reached the point where Rita grabbed the kidnapper and was severely beaten. Thus, although Nicole was still upset that Siobhan had covered up for Evelyn, she was touched by how well Rita had treated her.
Thinking about it, Nicole smiled and hummed in response. "Okay. I'll go down and check on Grandma." Then, she left the room.
On the other hand, the butler was surprised by her words. Did I just hear Nicole address Old Mrs. Gould as Grandma?
Although Nicole had acknowledged the Gould Family for a long time, she had always addressed Rita as 'Old Mrs. Gould' and never 'Grandma'. Yet… The butler chuckled and thought, It looks like Old Mrs. Gould will be in a good mood for a while.
Initially, Nicole was going to check on Rita. However, as soon as she went downstairs, she saw Evelyn kneeling before Siobhan. "Please save me, Mom. I didn't do anything. It was Queenie who framed me. She has been sisters with Nicole for such a long time, so maybe they have come together and framed me! Mom!" she cried out loud as she grabbed Siobhan's hands.
Nicole froze when she heard Evelyn's words. Then, she looked at Siobhan while pursing her lips into a thin line.
In the meantime, Siobhan noticed Nicole's presence as she tilted her head. Although their gazes met each other, they said nothing.
Panic flashed across Evelyn's eyes when she saw Nicole. She clutched Siobhan's hands tightly, begging, "My entire future will be ruined if I go to the police station, Mom. You wouldn't want that to happen, right?" Evelyn felt that Siobhan would help her. After all, Siobhan had covered up for her when she had made Nicole have a miscarriage. Thus, she felt Siobhan wouldn't just stand there and watch her go to jail.
Mixed feelings filled Siobhan's eyes as she looked at Evelyn, who had tears all over her face.
Nicole didn't stay any longer and decided to go to the study room to look for Rita. After all, she had no right to stop Siobhan from doing anything. It was her choice.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard Siobhan's voice. "You must pay for the consequences of your actions, Evelyn. If you are innocent, just follow them and let them take your statement. Once you are proven innocent, you can come back home."
Evelyn sobbed hysterically as she grabbed Siobhan's hands tightly. Then, she glared at Nicole angrily and cried, "Is it because of Nicole, Mom? Are you abandoning me because she is your biological daughter? You want to leave me for her, right?!"
Siobhan's eyes darkened as she realized the child she raised had become unreasonable. "I have had enough of you already, Evelyn. Even if you are my biological daughter, I won't help you to cover up for your mistakes over and over again. If you didn't do anything wrong, just go with them," she scolded.
Evelyn's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Siobhan's stern expression. Her lips quivered as she realized she had said the wrong words. "I… I didn't mean that, Mom. I… I just…" She tried to make up for her words.
