Chapter 194
Chapter 194:
“Why should I be? I’m innocent!” Annabel sneered. “A clear conscience fears no accusation. The liars are the ones who should be afraid, isn’t that right p>
“You have a point.” Rupert nodded in agreement.
Women were known to be very emotional. Most would burst into tears if anyone framed or wronged them.
However, Annabel was so calm, as if she were not in the middle of a storm.
Rupert was amazed by how strong she was.
“Anything else? I want to go to bed.” Annabel feigned a yawn. She wanted to check the information that Anthony had sent her, so she tried to chase Rupert away.
The reason Rupert had come here was to tell Annabel not to worry about Nina’s tell-it-all broadcast tomorrow. But now, it seemed that was not necessary.
After giving him a brief look, Annabel stood up and said, “Sleep tight p>
The moment the door was shut, Annabel clicked on the e-mail and opened the file Anthony had sent her.
A second later, her lips curled up in a smile. Nina was such a fool. Annabel was going to expose her vicious deeds during the live interview tomorrow.
At the crack of dawn the next morning, journalists from various media houses gathered at the gate of the hospital. They did not want to miss the first-hand information.
Once visiting time came, they rushed into the building like cattle moving into a green field.
Nina lay in the hospital bed with a sickly face. Cathy was also in the ward under the guise of visiting her.
“Dear journalists, thank you for coming today.” Nina feigned weakness and struggled to sit up on the bed.
Seeing that the cameras were already rolling, Cathy held Nina and said, “Be careful. You know you are still in a bad state p>

The leading reporter began the interview. “Hello, everyone. I believe that you are all curious about what happened between Nina and Annabel. There have been many speculations p>
“But what is the truth? Today, we are here in Nina’s ward to ask the people involved what really transpired that day p>
A reporter asked Cathy, “Miss Benton, rumor has it that Annabel is your cousin Rupert Benton’s fiancée. What’s your take on this p>
Cathy clarified, “It’s a false rumor. Don’t you know who my cousin is? How can a good and upright man like Rupert be engaged to a heartless woman? The Benton family is no place for criminals like Annabel. Only good people are welcome p>
“I see.” The reporters all heaved a sigh of relief. They had been afraid of stepping on Rupert’s toes. Their worry dissipated now that Cathy denied Annabel’s ties with Rupert and the Benton family as a whole.
The reporters then turned to today’s protagonist, Nina.
“Miss Jones, this might be difficult for you, but can you tell us what happened at Lover Lake on that unfortunate day? Many people want to know the truth p>
With a pale face, Nina began, “First of all, I want to thank you all for your concern p>
Nina held her chest and continued, “That day, my friend and I were supposed to have fun at Lover Lake, but she canceled at the last minute because something came up. I decided to walk around alone. During the stroll, I bumped into Annabel near the lake. She started raining insults on me as soon as she set eyes on me. She even wished me dead. I was just about to walk away from her when she pulled me back and pushed me into the lake. As I struggled to stay afloat, Annabel kept telling me to die p>
