Chapter 37 Drinking Up

Ava was confident that this was Elspeth’s attempt at intimidation in order to buy herself some time, and she didn’t have any evidence at all. There was no way she could have proof of her innocence! She raised her chin proudly and wanted to see what Elspeth was up to now.

“In that case, let me show you my evidence,” Elspeth answered flatly and whisked out her phone from her pocket. She clicked on the player, and instantly, everyone heard Ava’s overbearing voice from the phone.

“Don’t think I can’t do anything after you forced me out of Winthrop Group. Just wait and see. I’ll make you pay sooner or later—”

“After I was fired from Winthrop, no one wanted to hire me, and it was all because of you! You turned my life upside down, so I will let you have a taste of your own medicine—”

“Yes! I want to hurt you—”

In addition to the conversation, there were also the sounds of bawling and footsteps. It was apparent that Ava was the one who intentionally wanted to hurt Elspeth in the first place.

“Sir, I think I’ve made myself clear. I didn’t hurt Miss Wiley. Instead, she was the one who wanted to hurt me, and I was just trying to protect myself,” Elspeth explained calmly.

As Ava listened to the recording and her shrill voice echoed across the station, her face turned ghastly pale. No way! How did she know that I wanted to hurt her and even turned on the recorder in advance?!

“You set me up! You deliberately upset me and then recorded our conversation to set me up!” An idea popped into her mind, and her glare became vicious and sinister.

Elspeth, on the other hand, curled her lips into an indifferent smirk. “What did you say just now? You wanted to be my lapdog, right? Please don’t. You’re too heavy for my lap.”

Then, she turned and smiled at the police officer. “Sir, I’m sure you’ll make the right decision.”

At this point, everyone knew who was at fault in this matter. The police officer felt sorry for suspecting Elspeth just now, so he cleared his throat and apologized sincerely, “I’m sorry, Miss Lynwood. I misunderstood you.”
