Chapter 336

Mrs. Chancer looked at Scarlett in shock, then at her daughter, who appeared terrified. She quickly stepped in front of Lucy to shield her.

"Sarah! She's your sister-in-law! How could you even think about calling the police? You might not care about the Chancer's reputation, but I do!"

Just then, the door opened. James entered the room, looking annoyed.

"What's going on now?" he asked impatiently.

Lindsey's expression darkened as she turned to him. "James, some brother you are! Your sister pushed your wife into the river, and all you can say is that?"

James glanced at Sarah, then at Lucy.

"Lucy, what happened?"

Lucy's eyes filled with tears as she protested, "No, James! She's accusing me unfairly. I didn't push her! She fell in on her own, and I tried to save her. That's how I got scratched!"

Mrs. Chancer immediately chimed in to support Lucy. "James, I told you from the beginning not to marry her. Look at what's happening now-she's teaming up with outsiders to bully Lucy! Lucy is your sister after all!"
