***
In the Wilson family.
Rita got out of the car and went straight to her room. She inserted the U disk into the computer and quickly turned on a recording.
"Can you really give me six hundred thousand yuan for this?" Isabelle's questioning voice came from the player. Rita listened nervously. But after a few seconds of silence, came the voice of Isabelle.
"OK, I'll do it for you!" "I'll help you send Joey the room number on Rita’s mobile phone. When it's done, you have to pay me immediately!"
The was silence in the recording again. After a few seconds, another woman's voice was heard, "I can’t pay you immediately but the next day!" Hearing this, it was pretty clear what had happened that year.
She was framed! That was enough to know! She straightened her back and looked up at the man frowned tightly. "Liam, you hear it clearly. I was set up! I was framed!!!"
"I didn't kill Joey indirectly! I didn't!" Her eyes were red with crying. When she spoke the last words, her voice broke!
Liam looked at Rita, who was tearful, from top to bottom. His eyes were filled with guilt and love. He reached out and took her into his arms.
"I'm sorry," he muttered. ‘I'm sorry? He's apologizing to her?’
Rita was stunned, but then she cried ever more. At that moment, all her grievances broke out, and her tears couldn't stop.
Finally, she suddenly laughed. "I'm innocent, I'm innocent."
"..." looking at her in his arms, Liam was hurt deeply by her smile, and his big hand on his side out of sight, was clenched into a fist out of sight.
That day, Rita was tired of crying and fell asleep in bed. However, even if she fell asleep, she would still sob sometimes.

In the living room.
Liam sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and looked at the U disk and took a smoke.
He inserted the U disk into the computer and listened to the recording again, especially the voice of the second woman at the end of the track. Over and over again!
Every time he listened, he looked even more pale. In the end, his whole face was palpably gloomy.
When Joey had an accident, Liam put all the blame on Rita. Even if she explained over and over again that she didn't do it... But he didn't believe it at all! Even worse, he morbidly ignored her and hated her.
With memories crowding his mind, he got uptight. He had a smoke again with regret. Soon, the huge living room was filled with thick smoke.
As Jacob came in from the outside, he was choked and coughed. "Liam, how many cigarettes did you smoke?" Liam said nothing.
Jacob immediately realized that something was wrong. He glanced at Liam opposite him, and then saw the coldness in Liam’s eyes. Suddenly, his scalp tingled. ‘Well, Liam's eyes could kill a man!’
He swallowed spittle and gathered all his courage to walk forward. "Liam, has Rita pissed you off again?" Next second, Liam gave him a blank stare.
Jacob realized that he said something wrong and quickly shut up. "I need you to do something for me." Suddenly, Liam spoke.
Jacob was stunned and felt confused. "What's the matter?" "..." Liam came up and moved his thin lips, and then he leaned back on the sofa. "Well, I'll do it now." Jacob nodded and got up to leave.
In the afternoon, the phone rang again and again. Rita turned over and slept. She did not answer that call.
But the phone rang again. She reached for her mobile phone and put it to her ear.
"Rita, your uncle and aunt went to the Wilson’s house to come to you with your grandmother!" Zoe's anxious voice came from the microphone. Rita was suddenly wide awake, and her eyes suddenly opened. "Why?"
"It seems that..." "Rita, come out!" "Rita, come out!"
Before Zoe finished, Mason Brown and Roseburst in angrily. Hearing this, Rita put the phone away and went out.
Standing on the stairs, she coldly looked down at Mason and his wife downstairs. "What makes you disregard common decency and storm into?"
"You know it!" Mason angrily scolded. It looked like he was going to eat her up. Rita threw her hands and smiled, asking curiously, "I really don't know, please tell me."
"Rita, don't play dumb with me! Where did you hide Charlotte?! You give me my daughter back! " Rose cried severely. "Give her back to me!"
‘She kidnapped Charlotte?!! How could it be possible? She didn't leave the room at all. Unless…’
Rita realized something and she looked strained. She looked at Mrs. Davis who came out of the kitchen, saying, " Mrs. Davis, where is Liam?"
"Mr. Wilson is out." Hearing this, Rita’s heart jolted.
‘Sure enough! It seemed that it was Liam who kidnapped Charlotte! No wonder her ancle and aunt came to her so angrily.
"Rita, hand Charlotte over quickly! Or I'll get you for that!" At this time, the crying of Rose was heard again.
Rita came to her sense. "You have got the wrong place. Charlotte is not here!" She said indifferently and turned and went to her room.
"Mason, if anything happens to Charlotte, I will not live! It’s up to you! " Rose saw Rita going, and pushed Mason with anger.
Mason was flustered and exasperated. He was about to rush upstairs.
However, something was suddenly thrown into the living room. There was a loud bang behind them. All of them were stunned and turned their heads to look at the door.
They saw Charlotte fall and look as white as a sheet. "Oh, that hurts. Father, mother, help me! Grandma, help me! " The couple were distressed to see this.
