Chapter 1701 I Will Prove My Innocence
“Since when had I become a fickle person? How does sleeping separately for a few days make me that? This is pure slander! A false accusation! Sheep! I’m serious. Watch what you say!”
“So, you’re still trying to deny it, huh? What’s that on your face, then? Those dirty, oily, stinky lipstick stains on your face are the proof!” Sheila shouted angrily as she pointed at his face.
“The lipstick… Urgh! I’m telling you! I was framed! I repeat. Everything that happened tonight was a setup!”
“Like hell, it was a setup! I saw everything with my own eyes!”
“With your own eyes… W-What you saw with y-your own eyes aren’t necessarily the truth!”
“If seeing with my own eyes isn’t the truth, then what is? Huh? What is the truth?”
“The truth… The t-truth is that I love you the most, and you’re the most precious person to me! I’m the best husband in the whole wide world!”
“Bah! As if! Oh my God. How do you even say that with such a straight face? You’re really shameless, Davin. Do you know that?”
Davin didn’t know how to respond to that.
Seeing that the argument had gotten out of hand, Nicole quickly walked to Sheila’s side and advised, “Breathe, Sheila. Calm down. Since Davin insists that he was set up by Skyler, I think you should at least believe him for the time being. Give him a few days to prove his innocence.”
Okay. This is getting nowhere if there’s no proof, Nicole thought. She felt that this matter could be resolved easily if Davin could prove that Skyler had set him up.
“Prove my innocence?” Davin asked with a puzzled look on his face. He didn’t expect Nicole to come up with this suggestion.
“Yeah. If you’re really being set up as you said, then there’s definitely a way to prove it,” Evan finally said. He had been looking at Davin as if the latter was a lunatic.
Davin was stunned.
They’re right! Why didn’t I think of that? I should’ve found some ways to force the two b*tches to spill their beans back in the secret chamber! My mind stopped working when Sheila threw a fit back then. Oh gosh! I should’ve thought about this. It was the perfect chance for me to prove my innocence, yet I let it slip!
“Davin… Are you chickening out?” Sheila asked after noticing that he was formulating something in his head. He must be thinking about how to get rid of the evidence.
“What? Why should I be afraid? Tomorrow. I’ll prove it to you tomorrow,” he replied confidently.
Proving my innocence isn’t the only thing I’m going to do tomorrow. I’ll also make sure to teach Skyler a lesson so that he’ll pay for what he’s done! No one sets me up and gets away with it!
“Fine. If you can prove that you’re innocent tomorrow, I’ll consider forgiving you. If you can’t, then I’m divorcing you!”
“I’ll prove my innocence! Just you wait!” Davin promised and took a quick glance at the clock.
Hmm… If I go back to the secret chamber to look for Skyler and those girls now, I might not need to wait till tomorrow to prove my innocence.
“How about I go back to the secret chamber now and prove it to you in a couple of hours?” He looked at Sheila.
Now? At this hour? It’s almost midnight!
“What exactly is your real reason to go back there, Davin? Is it really to get your evidence, or is it because you want to make sure that the things you and the b*tches say are the same?”
Davin was rendered speechless. She’s way too suspicious!
“Tomorrow. You and me. We’re going there together tomorrow. I’ll be there to watch your every move as you prove your innocence to me. Who knows what you would do or say to them if I wasn’t around?” Sheila insisted.
Davin didn’t know what to say anymore.
Seeing how silent he was, Evan made the decision for him. “It’s late. You should go tomorrow. The truth wouldn’t change in one night since the truth is always right.”
“Yeah. It’s really late. You should both get some rest,” Nicole suggested before Davin’s phone suddenly rang.
It was Juan. Davin picked it up without any hesitation.
