Chapter 366
Chapter 366 Battlefield, Preston VS Andrew
Gloria's scream was loud, attracting quite a few people.
The first person who rushed over was William's younger brother, Blake.
He was called over by Gloria to act with her.
In fact, he really looked down on the melodramatic antics among women, but after all, he still needed to use Gloria, so he had to rush over in time, help Gloria up, with an anxious tone:
"Sister-in-law, were you okay?!"
"My child, my child, oh, it hurts so much!" Gloria cried out in agony, clutching her stomach.
Hedy and Andrew's expressions changed.
Gloria/Rosalic, who had fallen herself, was actually pregnant?
Blake angrily rebuked Hedy: "Ms. Ellis, why did you push my sister-in-law away!"
Hedy frowned, a cold glint flashing in her dark pupils.
Before she could speak, Andrew interjected coldly, "ITedy didn't push Mrs. William, she fell on her own."
"Tripped by herself? Mr. Zhou, do you think I didn't see Hedy's action just now?
"Hedy, wait for me! If anything happens to my sister-in-law's child, my elder brother will be the first one not to let you off, even if you are Mr. King's fiancée!"
Black dropped a harsh word, hoisted Gloria, who was covered in blood, around the waist, and hurriedly carried her through the onlookers to rush her to the hospital for emergency treatment.
"What's the matter with these two? Do they both have some kind of sudden onset illness?" Anger surged in Andrew's heart. He glanced at the surveillance camera in the stairwell and headed towards the control room.
"I went to get the surveillance!"
The strength of the William family was on par with that of the King family.
"Rosalie" was also the beloved wife of the head of the William family. If she had a miscarriage, William would certainly have had the heart to kill.
If they couldn't prove Hedy's innocence in time, it was highly likely that William would directly pressure the King Group, forcing Preston to hand over Hedy,
"No need," Hedy called out to Andrew, her tone resolute.
"The fact that they both dared to do this indicated that the surveillance had been tampered with in advance."
Andrew looked puzzled.
He didn't know why Hedy was so certain.
But he knew that if he was late to the surveillance room, evidence that was clearly available would be destroyed by others first.
Andrew, undeterred, quickly ran to the surveillance room, only to find all the monitors in the room were blacked out, with a maintenance worker squatting on the floor fixing the circuit.
"What happened?" Andrew asked.
"Half an hour ago, the instrument suddenly broke down and we are urgently repairing it," the staff member replied.
Andrew's expression changed.
Just as Hedy had said, the surveillance was indeed tampered with in advance!
"Rosalie" and Black came prepared.
Why did they have to use the vibrant life in their bellies to frame Iledy?
Weren't William and Preston friends?
Andrew was at his wit's end.
Ile retraced his steps back to the stairwell, returning to the unfazed Iledy. Ilis tone was subtle, "You're right, the surveillance was indeed sabotaged half an hour ago, and it hasn't been fixed yet."
Upon hearing this, Iledy chuckled lightly, her eyes not reaching her smile, "I'm glad that 'Lady William' has shown some improvement in her intelligence, not falling into the same pit three times.
Gloria had fallen into her trap twice due to "recording and surveillance".
Once was the year when Lowell Iligh School had its monthly exam, the matter of scrambling for seats in the library.
Once was after she won the Best Female Companion, Gloria followed her into the small woods to stage a self-directed performance.
For the third time, Gloria learned her lesson. She destroyed the evidence in advance to ensure nothing could go wrong, and even enlisted the help of her teammate, Blake.
Meanwhile, Gloria had also become more arrogant.
She didn't even care that Andrew was present, she just fell down, certain that it wouldn't matter even if Andrew saw.
These were the advantages that the identity of "Lady William" brought to her.
"Didn't fall into the same pit three times? Were there two times before?" Andrew
frowned.
As far as he knew, Rosalie and Hedy had no quarrel.
Rosalie and Lucifer never had a conflict.
The two had never intersected on the same timeline.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Did he miss any information?
Hedy answered evasively, her expression indifferent. "You should stay out of this. If anyone from the William family asks you, just say you were only going upstairs and didn't know what happened afterwards."
"At the necessary moment, it's wise to protect oneself. Saying that I pushed 'Lady William' is not impossible."
The Zhou family, who had moved to France, were also a prestigious family, but compared to the more historically established William family, they still fell short. Hedy didn't want to involve Andrew and the Zhou family in this conspiracy.
She thought her suggestion was good, but Andrew suddenly stepped forward, unable to resist punching the wall next to Iledy's ear heavily, his tone angry:
"What kind of joke were you making?"
He would have given his life for her if he could, how could he choose to save himself
at such a time?
Hedy's pupils slightly contracted, feeling that the Andrew in front of her was very
unfamiliar
Andrew had always been innocently naive and harmless, but now he was like an angry wild wolf, his eyes fierce yet tinged with a hint of grievance.
It was only at this close distance that Hedy belatedly realized, Andrew and Preston were about the same height. Standing in front of her, they could block her line of
sight.
"I..." Andrew knew he had acted impulsively, returning to his unassuming demeanor, he lowered his fist:
"Hedy, although we haven't known each other for long, I already consider you my best friend. I hope you won't take it upon yourself to dictate my actions, I know what my
choices are."
I had always known.
ITedy paused, so this was what Andrew had been thinking.
In doing so, she indeed offended Andrew.
"Thank you." Hedy flashed a sincere smile from the bottom of her heart.
Andrew also paused for a moment, blushing and looking away, muttering, "There's nothing to thank for."
At that time, Preston arrived, having heard the news with Aiden.
He had been playing golf with William while listening to him talk about his past with
Rosalie.
Near the end, Blake, half covered in blood, rushed in, saying that Hedy had pushed "Rosalie" down the stairs, and "Rosalie" was now being rescued in the hospital.
William's face turned pale, he gave Preston a cold glance, and rushed to the hospital where "Rosalie" was.
Preston also rushed to ITedy's side, his tone worried, "What happened?"
Iedy shrugged, "She was pregnant, sabotaged the surveillance in advance, and fell in front of me. She staged a drama with William's younger brother, Blake, claiming that I pushed her. I don't know if the baby in her belly could be saved."
Preston's expression became serious, aware of the gravity of the situation, he put his
arm around Hedy's shoulder: "Let's go back and talk."
Andrew was an outsider, some things couldn't be said in front of him.
"Um." Iledy looked at Andrew, "Then I'll go back first."
"Alright." Andrew laughed, not particularly bothered.
Preston thought to himself, it was rare to see such an innocent and naive boy like
Andrew.
After Hedy and Preston had walked some distance, Andrew suddenly spoke:
A thought suddenly occurred to me, "Hedy, could you please wait outside for a
moment? There's a message from the elders at home that I need to convey to Mr.
King."
Hedy nodded, descending the stairs alone.
"What did you say?" Preston turned back halfway and walked up to Andrew.
Andrew flashed his signature charming smile, "If you can't properly protect Hedy,
could I kindly ask you to die?"
Preston: "......"
Screw your naive and innocent girl.
