Chapter 40: Acting Well
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There was a parrot standing on the butler’s shoulder. When the parrot saw so many people, it was very afraid. It flapped its wings and flew onto Amelia’s shoulder.
Everyone was stunned when they heard George’s words. What did he mean?
George held the dossier, his slender fingers tapping on it. He lowered his eyes and looked at Rebecca. “Rebecca, you said that Mia pushed you and caused you to fall down the stairs and have a miscarriage, right?”
Rebecca lowered her head and pretended to cry. She panicked and choked. “I don’t blame Mia. She’s too insecure…
George sneered. “Do you think that because the Miller family doesn’t have surveillance cameras, the things you did won’t be exposed? Is that why you’re so fearless?
Rebecca was stunned. “No, President Walton, what are you talking about? Why don’t I understand?”
George glanced at the parrot. “Mia, bring Seven over.” Amelia obediently carried Seven over and even touched it to comfort it. “Seven, don’t be afraid. Eldest Uncle doesn’t like to eat birds.”
George paused, and his cold expression softened a little. Rebecca subconsciously glanced at the parrot. The parrot flapped its wings and cawed, “Don’t come over. There are bad people, there are bad people!”
Rebecca tried her best to squeeze out a smile. “M/hat are you doing… ‘ I
Unexpectedly, the parrot imitated Rebecca’s voice and tone. “I’m already very pitiful without a child. When your uncles ask you, just say that you pushed me. Do you hear me? If you don’t listen, believe it or not, I’ll beat you up!’
Rebecca’s face stiffened. This damn parrot actually copied everything she said to Mia that day! Everyone was also stunned. Although they didn’t know what was going on, this parrot’s voice was exactly the same as Rebecca’s. Could there be an inside story behind Rebecca’s miscarriage?
Rebecca felt everyone’s doubtful gazes and her eyes reddened. “Mr. Walton, are you suspecting me of framing Mia? The child in my stomach is my own flesh and blood. Why would I use my own child to frame Mia? M/hat good will this do me… You can’t convict me with a parrot, right?” As Rebecca spoke, she burst into tears.
George was unmoved. He even praised, “Your acting is not bad.”
Without needing George to say anything, the butler, Uncle Smith, took out a USB flash drive and played the contents. In the video, the pregnant Rebecca and Amelia, who was holding a kitten doll, were standing face to face. Amelia was wearing a set of tattered pajamas and was standing about a meter away from Rebecca. Suddenly, Rebecca fell back and fell down the stairs! The video was very clear. Amelia had never touched Rebecca from the beginning to the end!
Rebecca was stunned. Where did this video come from? It was impossible for there to be a video. The Miller family did not have surveillance cameras! When Jonathan saw this video, he was even more shocked than Rebecca. M/hat did it mean? Mia did not push Rebecca at all? Jonathan turned around and slapped
Rebecca’s face. “What’s going on?! Ah?!”
Rebecca covered her face and could not explain herself. “I… I don’t know… Boohoo, it’s too muddled. I don’t remember anything.”
George said, “It’s okay if you don’t remember. I’ll help you recall.” He took out a document from the case file and threw it at Rebecca’s face. “Your miscarriage was premeditated. The two hemorrhages during the surgery were fake.” The document showed that Rebecca had bribed a doctor to help her write a fake notice of critical illness. With witnesses and evidence, Rebecca could not defend herself at all. Her body went limp and she fell to the ground.
Jonathan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood! So from the beginning to the end, he had been used by Rebecca? Thinking to the period right before he went bankrupt, what else did Jonathan not understand? His eyes were red as he gritted his teeth. “Rebecca, you’ve wanted to leave me for a long time, right? If the child was born, it wouldn’t be easy for you to escape, so you framed Mia and used Mia to abort the child, right?”
Rebecca still refused to admit it. “No, it’s not like that… ‘ I
Jonathan was furious, but on second thought, this was also his chance. He put on a pitiful look as if he had been deceived. “You vicious woman. You’ve always been lying to me and sowing discord between me and Mia… Mia, it’s all Daddys fault. Daddy was deceived by someone and did something stupid!”
George moved his fingers. Uncle Smith took out a few more documents and projected them on the screen..
