Chapter 761 I Want To Sue Her
“Tiff!” Amelia cried out. Tiffany cocked her head and smiled bitterly. “You’re here, Babe. I’m sorry. I got myself into trouble, and now you have to come for me.” Amelia saw Tiffany’s report but pretended not to see it. “What happened? Who did this to you?”
Tiffany pointed at Isabella with her chin and said provocatively, “There. I taught her a good lesson because she badly needed one.” Tiffany did not show any sign of regret for what she did. To her, Isabella had taken advantage of the situation and exasperated her, so Isabella had only gotten what she deserved.
Isabella scoffed, “You’re proud of what you did, aren’t you? Just wait. I’m suing you until you end up behind bars!” “Oh! Go ahead! Show me you’re not a coward!” Tiffany retaliated.
“You’d better be prepared, Tiffany Winters. What you did to me constitutes bodily injury. As long as the police make a report, you’ll end up in prison even if Amelia and Mr. Hisson want to salvage the situation. I bet the Hissons would treat you worse once they find out their daughter-in-law beat someone up in a hospital.”
Tiffany clenched the report in her hand in utter silence.
Amelia walked over and said in a low voice, “Ms. Walker, there must be a misunderstanding. I apologize to you on her behalf. I’m sure we can settle this privately. What do you think?”
Isabella quirked her brows and hugged her chest in a snobbish posture. “Settle this privately? Sure. Kneel and apologize to me. Then I’ll overlook what she did. It’s easy, isn’t it?”
Amelia sucked in a deep breath. “Ms. Walker, don’t you think you’re asking too much?”
“Am I?” she asked, her brows still arched. Then she lowered her head and showed Amelia her wound. “Look at this, Amelia. This is what your friend did to me. There was blood all over. Do you still think I’m asking too much?”
Amelia looked at the patch of wet hair on Isabella’s head and gasped when she saw the blood clotted into flakes in her hair.
She did not expect Tiffany to get so violent since this could potentially lead to a concussion. In the worst case, Isabella might end up being admitted to the hospital. What Tiffany did to her had constituted a crime.
Isabella looked up again. “Now that you’ve seen my wound, I’m sure you know she will be imprisoned if I decide to sue her. Even if she doesn’t end up being incarcerated, the Hissons will not let her go. So you’d better think twice before you turn down my suggestion.”
Tiffany got up and pulled Amelia behind her. “She can do whatever she wants, Babe. I’ve already tolerated her for long enough. She lusts over a married man and thinks she’s so charming she can tempt that man into her bed. She’s just a sl*t!”
“You!” Isabella paled and shot up to her feet.
Amelia swiftly pulled Tiffany’s sleeve. “That’s enough, Tiff.”
Tiffany pursed her lips.
Right then, a police officer arrived and said, “Ms. Walker, we’ve already looked through your case and will file a report. Once this goes through, you’ll be able to sue the defendant for damages.”
“Thank you! I’m counting on you, Sir!” Isabella voiced.
The policeman nodded calmly and turned to leave, but Amelia stopped him.
“This is a misunderstanding, Sir. Ms. Walker and I have decided to settle this between us, so there’s no need to file any report. It won’t be a problem, right?”
The officer glanced at Amelia and replied, “Miss, this is the standard operating procedure. Your friend committed a criminal offense when she injured the victim. Even if the plaintiff does not intend to seek legal recourse, we will still have to go through this judicial process.”
With that, the officer nodded politely at Amelia and left.
Amelia wanted to persuade him, but Tiffany grabbed her hand. “Babe, you don’t have to. Just let her sue me. I don’t believe she can do anything to me.”
Amelia sighed. She could not believe Tiffany was still holding on to her ego even when things had escalated to that extent.
Isabella fidgeted with her red fingers and said, “What do you think, Amelia? You and Tiffany are best friends, so what about kneeling down and apologizing to me on her behalf? I don’t think it’s that difficult.”
“In your dreams! You can sue me if you want to. It’s not like I’m scared of you!” Tiffany argued arrogantly with her head high.
“Hmph! I see you’re not afraid, huh? Fine. I’ll see you in court. As a Walker myself, I’ll see to it that an infertile woman like you gets the punishment you deserve!”
“What did you say? Repeat that again, and I’ll rip your mouth to pieces!” Like an angry cat with fluffed hair, Tiffany growled at Isabella when she heard the insult.
“What can you do? You can’t give birth to a child. A hen that doesn’t lay eggs will have to face the consequences of its own inability!” Isabella reiterated with her brows curved, deliberately stoking Tiffany’s anger.
Tiffany felt an unquenchable urge to just go at Isabella, for she had long struggled with her infertility. She had thought the surgery would solve the problem once she recovered, but the result from the report had left her devastated.
“Isabella Walker, I’ll tear your mouth apart today so that you won’t be able to mock people’s misfortune anymore!” Tiffany jumped forward, wanting to hit Isabella again. But Amelia quickly stopped her, comforting, “Calm down, Tiff! You’re falling into her trap.”
Overwhelmed by her feelings, Tiffany huffed and puffed in a fury.
“Did you hear what she said, Babe? Sl*ts like her should die!”
“I know, and I heard her too. You should calm down first, Tiff.”
When Tiffany had finally composed herself again, Amelia took out her phone to call Oscar.
Isabella asked, “Are you calling Oscar? I’m not surprised. You’ve always depended on him for everything. I guess he’s the only one you can seek help from. After all, it’s not like you have anyone else to help you.”
Amelia’s fingers froze on her screen before she put down her phone. “Tell me, Isabella, what do you want me to do so that you’ll drop the case?”
“I told you. Just get on your knees and apologize to me.”
“That’s not happening,” Tiffany said. Then she took out her phone and called Derrick. “Derrick, I beat someone up, and I’m at the police station now. Could you come over?”
Someone spoke on the other end, and Tiffany replied, “All right, I’ll wait for you.”
After hanging up, she waved her phone at Isabella. “Do you think I’ll try to hide what I did from the Hissons after beating you up? You underestimated me. I know they don’t like me because I can’t bear them a child, but I’m not a coward who runs away from reality. At least, I’m not someone with filthy thoughts.”
Isabella’s face fell. She snorted and said, “Yeah, you keep up with your feigned bravado.”
While waiting for Derrick to arrive, Amelia sat beside Tiffany and took the report from her. “What’s this, Tiff?”
Tiffany shrugged and answered casually, “It’s just as the report says. The doctor said I’m infertile, so I might not have a child my whole life. I guess it’s not meant to be. I won’t get to become a mother.”
Amelia frowned when she heard that. “Perhaps they made a mistake. You just did the surgery, so it doesn’t make sense that you can’t get pregnant. Let’s get a second opinion one day.”
Tiffany remained silent. Opposite them, Isabella interrupted sarcastically, “Well, that’s if she makes it out of the police station.”
Amelia shot her a glance and ignored her.
