“Nonsense!” Azalea shouted. She couldn’t believe the murderer would turn themselves in so easily. Christoff said he owed her a favor, but he was worried that she would tell Olivia everything he did. How shameless! She even suspected he had planned for the murderer to confess this quickly. Then, she shouted angrily at the man, “Do you know what you’re saying? I don’t even know you! What evidence do you have to claim that I arranged it? What are you trying to do?”
The man frowned lightly and uttered, “Princess Azalea, you can’t let me shoulder such a huge incident alone! What grudges can I possibly hold against that man? I was just following your orders!”
After hearing that, she panicked and shouted, “Stop making baseless accusations! Who knows what grudges you might have against him? Don’t you dare blame it on me!” As she spoke, she looked toward Eugene, then hastily explained, “Even though I hate that man to the core, you said that you’ll exact revenge on him for me, right? Why would I get someone to kill him, then? It doesn’t make sense, does it?”
Eugene looked at Azalea and said calmly, “Yes, I’ve already promised to exact revenge for you, so why would you get impatient and find someone to assassinate him? Could there be something about you that I shouldn’t know?”
Her heart sank as soon as she heard that, and she felt like she had missed a ladder rung. She gulped and said, “Eugene, I’ve said it before, I wasn’t the one who told him to do it!” However, he stared at Azalea, unmoving. “Then, why did he say those were your orders?”
At that moment, she was so terrified that she averted her gaze, explaining with a stutter, “H- How would I know? He’s saying nonsense, or someone is trying to frame me. Anything is possible!”
Then, he drawled, “It appears that… You are unwilling to speak the truth.” Azalea frowned, looking at Eugene. “So, you don’t believe me?”
“Indeed, I don’t!” As he spoke, his gaze on her turned cold. “I’ve given you numerous chances, but you always manage to disappoint me. Either you’ve fooled me with your stellar performance, or I didn’t know you well!”
Her face went completely white when she heard that, and she couldn’t breathe momentarily. She stood dumbfounded before the cold man, tears streaming down her cheeks in defeat. “You accused me of the crime simply because of one testimony from him. You don’t even have any evidence, and even if I was the one who sent him to kill the man, I just wanted to take revenge for myself. Is that such a horrible crime?”
However, Eugene asked, “Are you trying to get revenge, or are you trying to hide something?” Azalea shouted in a fit of panic, “What do I have to hide? Eugene, if you want to say something. just say it. Stop running in circles!”
After that, he slowly stood up and walked closer to her. “All right, I’ll be honest now. I’ve already told you very clearly in the ward that we won’t have anything to do with each other in the future, but you still went to my mom’s house and stole Carter’s toothbrush. You also bribed a nurse and got your hands on Olivia’s DNA sample. You did all this to prove that the three children were Olivia’s illegitimate children, trying to get us to break up. You hired someone to assassinate Cameron not for vengeance but to cover up the heinous crimes you committed!”
The man’s powerful aura was so strong that Azalea almost couldn’t breathe. She took a subconscious step backward. “What are you saying? What did I do?”
Eugene narrowed his eyes and asked, “Do I have to lay them out one by one?”
