Chapter 159 He Deletes the Recording Even though he didn’t want to admit it, the voice of accusation in Emily’s phone was indeed Elva’s. Elva pursed her lips, and tears of humiliation welled up in her eyes. Seeing Derrick got the phone, she let out a sigh of relief. As long as there was no evidence, the outcome would be whatever she said, wouldn’t it? She looked at Claudia with anger and choked, “That day, I had an argument with my mother because she wanted me to leave the Friedan family… She said since my sister had come back, I was no longer needed and she wanted to give me some money to leave, but I didn’t want to…” “You’re talking nonsense!”*Waldron exclaimed angrily. “Mom is not that kind of person at all, Elva, you still refuse to tell the truth.” He glared fiercely at Derrick and angrily said, “Hand over your phone! Derrick, didn’t you see the person you’re defending smearing my mother? Have you gone mad, actually helping someone like that?” “Derrick, give the phone to Claudia,” Ervin said, feeling somewhat speechless about Derrick’s act of sna tching the phone. Wasn’t this openly going against Claudia? Derrick glanced at his phone and instinctively looked at Claudia. In just that one glance, he had already seen the deep sarcasm in Claudia’s eyes. He remembered Claudia’s words “I didn’t treat you as a brother,” and his heart suddenly felt a sharp pain. 17.36 He indeed did not deserve to be a brother… If he had to choose, he would only be worthy of being a brother to someone, then let it be Elva’s brother. Derrick’s lips curled into a cold smile, he slowly lowered his gaze, and the next second, regretfully pressed the delete key.
Under the gaze of everyone, he looked up and said to the crowd, “Recording conversations may not necessarily be for the purpose of leaving evidence. Conversations are private matters, and without the consent of the parties involved, we should not release them like this.” Waldron watched as he pressed the delete button, his face turning pale. He angrily rushed toward him, grabbing his collar with a pair of phers and punched him in the face. “Derrick, do you have some serious illness? Privacy! Mom is lying unconscious in bed right now, and you’re here talking to me about privacy!” Derrick did not fight back, and Elva screamed in fear beside him, her face turning pale with fright. Thomas closed his eyes, clenched his fists, and coldly reprimanded, “Enough, all of you stop!”
Thomas was tired. These brothers haven’t fought for many years, but now they are fighting over such a thing. Waldron firmly held onto Derrick’s collar, refusing to let stubbornly pursed mouth. go, with a Derrick remained expressionless, but his face had turned red and visibly swollen. “You continue speaking!” Thomas looked at Elva. “To tell the truth.” my His voice was deep and carried a warning. Elva’s heart trembled as she choked out, “I was telling the truth. I had been arguing with my mom for a long time, and I even said that I was just a stepping stone for sister. Then Rosalie came in and tried to mediate, but it was at that moment that the accident happened. The vase on the cabinet fell down, and I didn’t expect my mom to throw herself on me, shielding me from danger…” Speaking of this, Elva cried out h oar sely, tears streaming down her cheeks, “It’s all my fault. I should have talked to her properly, I shouldn’t have been angry with her. As long as mom wakes up, I won’t resent her even if I don’t have the Friedan surname!” The space was filled with Elva’s crying. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Claudia chuckled lightly, her clear voice dripping with sarcasm. According to Elva, everything was an accident, and there was no right or wrong. She even found reasons for her resentful words. What a good one to make her leave the Friedan family, what a good one to shield her from the vase. The phone arrived just a few minutes ago. She only had time to listen to it once and didn’t have time to copy it at all before the Friedan family arrived. She could only release a temporary recording. Thinking about Derrick deleting the recording, Claudia’s lips curled into a cold smile, but her heart felt as if it was being weighed down by a stone. She didn’t expect such an accident to happen. Derrick didn’t even bother to ask, he just snat ched the phone. “The recording has been deleted, but some truths cannot be erased,” Claudia’s lips curled slightly, and the coldness in her eyes pierced Elva like a knife. “Rosalie is finished, if you don’t want to end up like her, it’s better to confess and turn back now. I have more than just this one piece of evidence.” Can you delete the recording and delete the evidence? Thinking of Abel’s words, Claudia felt extremely grateful that she had shown kindness once. If she hadn’t helped Abel, Abel wouldn’t have told her about this matter, and she would have been helpless against Rosalie and Elva. Now that there is evidence, what does it matter if the recording is deleted? The evidence is there, and no one can escape. “Derrick, you’re afraid too, aren’t you? Afraid that there might be some disgusting words in the audio post-production,” Claudia looked at Derrick, her tone indifferent. “Actually, I had already listened to the recording before you guys arrived.” Upon hearing these words, Elva’s relaxed face wrinkled again. No matter how much she calculated, she never calculated that Claudia could fix the phone. It had only been a few days, but she was able to find her phone and even fix it!
Is even G od helping her? “Elva is your relative, and I didn’t want to interfere, but Emily is my biological mother,” she said, stepping closer to Elva and looking down at her. Elva’s heart raced, her face turning pale and then green. Just as she was about to maneuver her wheelchair backwards, Claudia’s clear and melodious voice echoed in her ears: “Some people’s sins were originally not deep, but in order to cover up some minor mistakes, they may sink deeper and embark on a path of no return…” Elva stared blankly at the ground, waves of shock and turmoil surged in her heart. Wasn’t what Claudia said also about her? She originally just wanted to prevent Waldron from revealing the results of the paternity test, but it ended up turning into a hired murder. She originally just wanted to argue right and wrong with Emily, but unexpectedly became an accomplice to Rosalie. Just like Claudia said, she was getting deeper and deeper, one wrong step after another. But we have already reached this point… She looked at Derrick, whose face had already swollen, and her nose tingled. Tears streamed down her face like a river. She couldn’t bear to part with Derrick, couldn’t bear to part with her father, and couldn’t bear to part with everything about the Friedan family… She was Elva, the most favored member of the Friedan family. She had already possessed the best, so why did fate want to take everything away from her now? There was no turning back, never again. She was wrong, but she could only continue to be wrong. Thoma s’s wife’s room must have been very luxurious. Pamela rubbed shoulders with others, feeling very excited. She walked inside and was surprised to see
that the person by the door did not stop her. She opened her mouth in astonishment. She didn’t know that when Ervin brought her back, he had already instructed all the serv ants of the Friedan family to take good care of her and fulfill her requests as much as possible. These ser vants subconsciously treated her as Ervin’s girlfriend, so when Ervin’s girlfriend went to see Ervin’s mother, they had no reason to stop her. As soon as Pamela entered the room, she was stunned by the luxury inside. These past few days, she had been enjoying a life akin to that of an aristocrat, but she never expected Emily’s room to be the epitome of luxury among the elite. There were various antique paintings hanging on the wall, the floor was covered with the softest animal fur blankets, and the furniture made of an unknown type of wood emitted a refreshing woody scent, which made people feel relaxed and extremely comfortable. All the objects in the room could only be described as luxurious. Pamela glanced at the bed and Emily’s beautiful face caught her eye. Just as she marveled at how well Emily took care of herself, Emily’s fingers twitched slightly. Pamela rubbed her eyes in disbelief. Did she not see it wrong? Did Emily’s fingers just move?
