Chapter 316 Want to Drown You

Sophia's frantic antics made Chloe smirk despite herself.

Sophia's clumsy acting might fool some clueless netizens, but if she thought she could pull one over on the police, that was just not happening.

The lead officer, hearing Sophia's accusations, couldn't help but warn her, "Ma'am, you need to be careful with your words. Miss Davis did not push your niece into the deep end."

"Actually, she risked her life to save your niece when she saw her struggling in the deep water. If it weren't for her, your niece would have drowned."

Sophia's face turned an ugly shade at the officer's words.

She knew Chloe had rushed into the deep end to save Kathy. After all, she had witnessed it herself.

The only reason she was making such a fuss is to drag Chloe down. But now that the police were actually speaking up for Chloe, her whole plan to smear her was falling apart. There was no way she was just going to let Chloe off the hook like this-she had not done yet.

Thinking this, she denied it. "Officer, she's so awful, how could she possibly save my niece? You must be mistaken!"

Hearing this, the officer retorted, "Ma'am, are you questioning our investigative abilities?"

"No, that's not what I meant. I just..." Sophia hadn't expected the situation to turn so quickly. She was at a loss for words.

Suddenly, she remembered Chloe slapping Kathy in the water and brought it up again. "Then why did she slap my niece in the water? My niece is so small, how could she handle such a slap?"

The officer explained, "When Miss Davis went to save your niece, your niece reflexively yratdecrivils's Davis's arm, preventing der formswimming: urutlar sritiarton, Davis hadn't slapped her to break free, they both could have drowned."
