Chapter 111

Bella put her phone away, a slight shift of emotion occurring in her eyes. “I have no idea what you mean by that. I just happened to be recording when she hit me with her car.”

Staring at him, she unconsciously talked in a softer tone. “The police are already looking into the accident. So far, they think it’s just an accident. However, if I turn this recording over to them, they’ll start investigating the case as attempted murder. You know what that means, right?”

Overcome by pain, she couldn’t finish her sentence. She covered her mouth and coughed heavily. Her face paled as all energy was drained from her.

Yet, Christian didn’t feel a bit sorry for her, and there was even undisguised anger on his face. He glared at her like a hawk glaring at its prey. “Are you threatening me?”

“I’m just stating facts. Why do you think I’m threatening you?” Bella looked at him innocently, yet there was bitterness in her eyes. “Shouldn’t you be happy? After all, Victoria has hurt you too. Now, she might be spending the rest of her life in prison.”

Christian clenched his fist as he wrestled with his temper. Anger simmered in his fathomless eyes.

“Victoria has been with you for so many years, yet she’s been cheating on you all this while. Her situation with my brother is complicated, to put it mildly. I feel sorry for you and my brother. Now that she’s done something like this, sending her to prison is just what she deserves,” said Bella.

The stench of disinfectant and medicine made Christian cough, prompting him to frown in dissatisfaction. “I already told you. What’s between Victoria and me is none of your business. You should delete that recording.”

Bella did a double take. If Christian had agreed to put Victoria behind bars, it would prove that he no longer cared about her. Alternatively, it would prove that Victoria’s infidelity had broken his heart. Either possibility suited Bella just fine. However, it seemed that he still loved Victoria deeply. So, he’s still taking her side. I guess it’s time for Plan B.

Hiding her heartache, she shook her head vehemently. “I’m sorry, but I can’t delete this recording. If I did, there would be no proof that Victoria tried to kill me.”
