“I hate you, Shaun.” Cate burst into tears.
“Have a good rest. Don’t return to the office for now. I’ll handle everything related to Hudson Corporation on your behalf until you give birth to the two children.”
Shaun had no choice but to say that reluctantly as he could not bear seeing her weep.
With that, he turned on his heel and walked toward the gates.
“Stop…”
Cate wanted to go after him, yet Hadley blocked her helplessly. “Young Madam Lyons, you’d better stop arguing with Eldest Young Master Lyons. Because of you, his relationship with Young Master Snow has turned sour lately. Shelley’s parents even came to criticize Eldest Young Master Lyons for their daughter’s death, which has caused him distress.”
Cate stopped walking and asked incredulously, “Hadley, is the dead body really Shelley’s?”
“Yeah. The doctors who conducted the forensic examination and DNA test work for us, so the results can’t possibly be wrong. You were indeed mistaken, Young Madam Lyons.”
Mistaken.
Was she really mistaken?
Other people were claiming that Charity had been lying to her.
Cate herself felt that Shelley looked familiar, especially her eyes.
Why did the reports that Shaun received manage to prove that she was the real Shelley?
Could it be that Rosabella, who was pretending to be Shelley, brought the real Shelley back after learning that Cate had found out the truth? After all, if Rosabella were to impersonate Shelley, Shelley should be with her.
Cate’s heart did a flip.
The more Cate thought about it, the more she deemed it possible. She gave Mireya a call right away. “When you did the DNA test, did you bump into anyone? Was the matter exposed?”
“You asked me to be careful. Naturally, I didn’t reveal it to anyone, except when it came to getting Jeffery’s hair. I asked my brother for help with that. Having said that, you know my brother’s character, don’t you?”
Cate furrowed her brows. Of course, she trusted Forrest. “Did anyone spot you at the forensic department, like anyone who used to be close to Rosabella?”
“I don’t think so… When I collected the report in the hospital, I bumped into the shameless couple, Patrick and Linda. Patrick happened to feel unwell that day, so Linda kept him company.”
“Linda.”
Cate mumbled the name, “She’s quite possibly the one who did it. Rosabella was friends with a lot of rich young ladies in Melbourne back then. What’s more, the Shelby family has quite a high status in Melbourne. Linda even attended Nathan and Rosabella’s wedding before this.”
“Are you suspecting Linda?” Mireya was stunned.
“Ask your brother to find out whether Linda received any calls from Canberra on the day you met her.”
Cate told Mireya what had happened lately, which left her in astonishment. “You suspect that Rosabella found out about it, which is why you’re planning to beat her at her own game?”
“Yup. The person behind this incident has made all of us fall into her trap. Because of her, my relationship with Shaun is beginning to crack. She has also caused Shaun and Rodney’s relationship to turn sour. Even the Neeson family is now in a tight corner while Charity is in jail.”
“Charity is the one suffering the most. She might be stuck in jail forever despite not having done anything,” Mireya murmured, “It’d better not be Linda, or I’ll kill her for sure.”
“By the way, Rosabella has made a cunning getaway. I have no idea where she has gone,” Cate said with a bitter smile.
“What a b*stard.”
Mireya went mad.
After hanging up, she quickly booked the earliest flight back to Melbourne.
As soon as the plane landed, she received Linda’s phone record from Forrest.
Soon, Mireya found the call which Linda received from Canberra that day. The call was made shortly after she came across Linda that morning when she collected the report from the hospital.
The call lasted a few minutes.
Anyway, everything was in line with Cate’s expectations.
It was Linda who had told Rosabella about the matter.
It was Linda who let Rosabella go and jailed Charity.
Standing at the airport, Mireya felt dizzy.
She directly headed to Patrick’s company without even knowing how she hailed the taxi.
Linda had been working in his company during this time.
Mireya immediately dashed upstairs after she arrived. Linda, who was dressed elegantly, was stunned the minute she caught sight of her. “Mireya, what brings you here? Are you looking for Pat—”
“I’m looking for you.” Mireya slapped both sides of Linda’s face right away.
She had long since wanted to do so, but she had told herself that Patrick, that b*stard, was not worth the effort.
However, now…
Because of Linda, Charity went to jail.
Because of Linda, Shaun misunderstood Cate.
Because of Linda, Rodney blacklisted her.
“Linda, I can tolerate you doing anything else, but you shouldn’t have been in touch with Rosabella. What on earth did you tell her? You’ve put us in a tight corner!”
Considering her petite figure, Linda clearly could not attack Mireya back. Soon, her face became swollen.
Fortunately, some people in the company came to drag Mireya out. Everyone knew that Mireya was previously Patrick’s girlfriend, so they did not dare to drag her forcefully. In the end, it turned out that Linda was completely defeated.
“Let go of me, Mireya! I haven’t the faintest idea what you’re saying.” Linda felt as if her scalp was going to peel off soon.
“Stop pretending in front of me. Show me your phone and we’ll make everything clear. I’m sure you’re often in touch with Rosabella through WhatsApp.”
When Mireya lifted her leg to kick Linda, Patrick’s voice sounded behind her all of a sudden.
“What the hell are you doing, Mireya?” He hauled her off.
It caught her completely off guard. Consequently, she fell to the ground.
Patrick promptly pulled Linda up. With unkempt hair and a swollen face, Linda fell into his arms in an instant. “Patrick, I’m in pain.”
“Sorry for coming late.” Upon noticing the scratches all over Linda’s skin, Patrick could not help but glower at Mireya. “Mireya, look at how unruly you are right now. When I looked for you in Canberra previously, you got another man to incite me. Now, you came to my office to slap Linda. Do you think that I don’t have the nerve to do anything to you?”
“How I am is none of your business.” Mireya gritted her teeth and stood up. “My biggest f*cking regret is having fallen in love with you. If I didn’t know you, you guys wouldn’t have targeted me in the hospital the other day.”
“I don’t know what you’re saying. Anyway, you must apologize to Linda right now, or I’ll call the police.” Her words infuriated Patrick.
“Apologize? Haha. I blame myself for not being brutal enough. I’m going to slap you every time I see you, Linda!” Mireya lost control and roared.
Trembling with anger, Patrick took out his phone to call the police, but Linda immediately stopped him. “Don’t call the police. Mireya’s probably just jealous—”
“There’s a limit to jealousy. Look, she’s not even showing remorse for her mistakes. Who knows if she’s going to slap you again?”
Patrick spoke bluntly while keeping an impassive face.
“President Jackson, you’re quite protective of your employee, huh?” Forrest, who was tall and sturdily built, suddenly walked over to him. His dark eyes were heavy with grimness. “You’d rather have your ex-girlfriend, whom you had been in a relationship with for four years, be sent to the detention center for the sake of this woman. No wonder Mireya chose not to be with you.”
The employees around them began whispering to each other.
“No wonder Miss Lynch got mad. Could it be that President Jackson betrayed her and got together with Linda?”
