Chapter 607 The Video
The crowd was shocked. Everyone was stunned and stared at Catherine. Audrey pulled herself out of the sadness. Slowly, she looked toward Catherine with a somewhat dull expression as if having trouble accepting what she had just heard.
“Kathy, what do you mean by this?”
Catherine glanced at her faintly and replied in a low voice, “Just the literal meaning.”
Liana became anxious. She couldn’t even dare to look directly at Catherine.
After carefully recalling everything she had done, Liana couldn’t find any wrongdoing. Her attitude suddenly became firm, and she straightened her posture.
Then she asked, “Catherine, are you falsely accusing me to escape the charges? Doesn’t your conscience hurt? Or is it that you’re doing this for money? You don’t want to split Dad’s property, so you intentionally found such an excuse?”
As Liana finished speaking, Rachael caught on.
She pointed at Catherine and cursed loudly, “Jinx! You’re a jinx! Your dad has just died, and you’re bullying us like this. You’re truly wicked to the core.
Even though everyone believed Catherine, what she said was just too unbelievable. She said Liana killed her own father, Korbin. They thought that could not be possible.
Just as the situation reached a deadlock, Scott suddenly rushed over.
He shouted, “Catherine, didn’t lie!”
This abrupt voice took everyone’s attention, and all eyes focused on Scott.
Scott walked confidently to Liana and stared at her. Despite his young age, his gaze was sharp.
Being stared at like this made Liana uncomfortable, and she couldn’t help but lower her head.
Scott teased, “Liana, are you feeling guilty? Can’t even look me in the eye?”
Liana glanced at him with anger. ”
What nonsense are you spouting?
Everyone knows you’re in cahoots with Catherine. Are you teaming up against me now? Is that fun for you?”
“Fun? Of course, it’s fun!” Scott
carefully examined Liana. In terms of appearance, she indeed resembled Catherine even more than Audrey did. But he didn’t know why their personalities were so different.
Scott curled his mouth and disdainfully evaluated Liana. He asked, “Why don’t you have even half the intelligence of Catherine? Don’t you know the wheels of justice grind slowly but exceedingly fine?”
“What are you talking about?” Liana couldn’t hold back any longer. She exploded in anger.
Scott held up his portable computer and waved it in front of Liana. “I’ve got evidence here. I’ve recorded everything wrong you’ve done. How about that? Didn’t expect cameras in the hospital room, did you?”
Liana was so shocked that she took a step back involuntarily, and her face turned pale instantly.
She never imagined someone would install cameras in the hospital room.
She thought inwardly, “Does Catherine target me from the start?”
Audrey observed Liana’s reaction and thought she became increasingly suspicious.
She marched up to Liana and glared at her, not allowing any evasion. “Liana, tell me. What did you do to Dad?”
Liana was speechless and trembled all over.
Rachael, who stood nearby, was unable to bear it. She pushed Audrey away and angrily reprimanded her.
She shouted, “I think you’ve gone mad! You actually believe this kid’s words. He’s in cahoots with Catherine. Can’t you see that?”
Audrey looked at her mother in shock and, unbelievably, asked, “Mom, didn’t you hear? Scott has evidence.”
As the others argued, Scott had already opened the video.
In it, a figure with a mask sneakily entered Korbin’s hospital room and injected an unknown substance into his IV bag.
Even though the person wore a mask, from the figure’s back, everyone could clearly see it was Liana.
Audrey stared at the clear footage with red eyes, and then she looked at Liana in disbelief. “Why? Why would you do this?”
Rachael frowned and still didn’t believe everything she was seeing.
She stubbornly defended Liana and replied, “Who knows? This jinx is quite capable. Anything can be faked nowadays. What if she faked this video? Audrey, after all these years together, you don’t trust your sister but believe this jinx?”
Faced with her mother’s absurd words, Audrey couldn’t take it anymore. Mom, have you said enough?”
Rachael was stunned by Audrey’s outburst.
Audrey didn’t care about any of that. She glared furiously at Liana. “Speak up! Why did you do it?”
Liana still stubbornly held on and refused to admit anything. “Why? There’s no reason. It’s just like Mom said! Catherine framed me. She’s capable of anything to set me up!”
“Frame you?” Catherine sneered, ” What makes you think you’re worth my trouble to frame? Are you even worthy?
“Exactly. Look at yourself. You’re nothing. Catherine could deal with you easily,” Scott replied, echoing Catherine. In his view, anyone who dared to bully Catherine should be crushed.
Their coordinated mockery completely enraged Liana. She couldn’t contain herself any longer and yelled frantically at Catherine, “It’s you who framed me! Just to satisfy your superiority complex and show off your skills. Because I’ve always been unhappy with you, you want me to become like you, the one everyone hates!”
Facing Liana’s irrationality, the crowd felt that she had truly lost her mind. Even if Catherine hadn’t done anything, they wouldn’t find Catherine detestable.
Instead, they thought Liana was manipulative and didn’t like her.
Scott couldn’t take it anymore. He suggested to Catherine, “Catherine, this girl’s just bluffing. I think we shouldn’t be polite anymore. Let’s just take action!”
Catherine glanced at Liana, and her scornful gaze stunned Liana.
Liana felt something was wrong.
And indeed, the next moment, Catherine dropped another bomb.
“Since you refuse to admit it, let your father tell you himself!”
The crowd thought inwardly, “Her father? But isn’t Korbin dead?”
Everyone was bewildered. They couldn’t understand Catherine’s words. They wondered whether she had some resurrection power.
Just as everyone was in a daze, the tightly closed door of the room suddenly swung open.
Korbin, who should be lying in the hospital bed, was pushed out. He was actually alive.
After Liana saw her father, as their eyes met, she collapsed to the ground. She knew it was over, completely over.
