Chapter 761 I Want To Sue Her
“Tiff!” Amelia cried out. Tiffany cocked her head and smiled bitterly. “You’re here, Babe. I’m sorry. I got myself into trouble, and now you have to come for me.” Amelia saw Tiffany’s report but pretended not to see it. “What happened? Who did this to you?”
Tiffany pointed at Isabella with her chin and said provocatively, “There. I taught her a good lesson because she badly needed one.” Tiffany did not show any sign of regret for what she did. To her, Isabella had taken advantage of the situation and exasperated her, so Isabella had only gotten what she deserved.
Isabella scoffed, “You’re proud of what you did, aren’t you? Just wait. I’m suing you until you end up behind bars!” “Oh! Go ahead! Show me you’re not a coward!” Tiffany retaliated.
“You’d better be prepared, Tiffany Winters. What you did to me constitutes bodily injury. As long as the police make a report, you’ll end up in prison even if Amelia and Mr. Hisson want to salvage the situation. I bet the Hissons would treat you worse once they find out their daughter-in-law beat someone up in a hospital.”
Tiffany clenched the report in her hand in utter silence.
Amelia walked over and said in a low voice, “Ms. Walker, there must be a misunderstanding. I apologize to you on her behalf. I’m sure we can settle this privately. What do you think?”

Isabella quirked her brows and hugged her chest in a snobbish posture. “Settle this privately? Sure. Kneel and apologize to me. Then I’ll overlook what she did. It’s easy, isn’t it?”
Amelia sucked in a deep breath. “Ms. Walker, don’t you think you’re asking too much?”
“Am I?” she asked, her brows still arched. Then she lowered her head and showed Amelia her wound. “Look at this, Amelia. This is what your friend did to me. There was blood all over. Do you still think I’m asking too much?”
Amelia looked at the patch of wet hair on Isabella’s head and gasped when she saw the blood clotted into flakes in her hair.
She did not expect Tiffany to get so violent since this could potentially lead to a concussion. In the worst case, Isabella might end up being admitted to the hospital. What Tiffany did to her had constituted a crime.
Isabella looked up again. “Now that you’ve seen my wound, I’m sure you know she will be imprisoned if I decide to sue her. Even if she doesn’t end up being incarcerated, the Hissons will not let her go. So you’d better think twice before you turn down my suggestion.”
Tiffany got up and pulled Amelia behind her. “She can do whatever she wants, Babe. I’ve already tolerated her for long enough. She lusts over a married man and thinks she’s so charming she can tempt that man into her bed. She’s just a sl*t!”
“You!” Isabella paled and shot up to her feet.
Amelia swiftly pulled Tiffany’s sleeve. “That’s enough, Tiff.”
Tiffany pursed her lips.
Right then, a police officer arrived and said, “Ms. Walker, we’ve already looked through your case and will file a report. Once this goes through, you’ll be able to sue the defendant for damages.”
“Thank you! I’m counting on you, Sir!” Isabella voiced.
The policeman nodded calmly and turned to leave, but Amelia stopped him.
“This is a misunderstanding, Sir. Ms. Walker and I have decided to settle this between us, so there’s no need to file any report. It won’t be a problem, right?”
The officer glanced at Amelia and replied, “Miss, this is the standard operating procedure. Your friend committed a criminal offense when she injured the victim. Even if the plaintiff does not intend to seek legal recourse, we will still have to go through this judicial process.”
With that, the officer nodded politely at Amelia and left.
