Chapter 198:
Nina kept giving herself a pep talk in her head. As far as she knew, it was impossible for anyone to retrieve deleted browser records.
She took a deep breath and put on a defiant mask. “You faked these records. I have never browsed such things in my life. I can’t believe you would stoop so low, Annabel. You are still hurting me despite what you did p>
Annabel chuckled. “Just so you know, I already asked the police to get your computer. You cleared your browsing history. However, it might interest you to know that it doesn’t change a thing. Technology is more advanced these days. A skilled hacker can easily restore the records in no time. Soon, we will know the truth p>
“You…” Nina was too stunned to speak. She pointed at Annabel as her face turned deathly pale.
“Calm down, I’m not finished yet.” With a smug smile, Annabel took out a pen recorder and spun it between her fingers. “I believe you will be more interested in this p>
Under everyone’s curious gaze, Annabel pressed the play button.
A recording began to play; it was the conversation between Nina and Talia.
“Nina, your father went gambling again and lost a lot of money. He owes a creditor a huge sum. This morning, the creditor came knocking and vowed to kill us if we didn’t pay up. I don’t know what else to do. Can you help us?” Talia’s voice was almost a wail.
“Mom, don’t worry. Give me some time. I’ll soon return to Benton Group. Then I will have enough money to clear the debts.” There was great certainty and determination in Nina’s voice.
“Really?” Talia’s voice was filled with doubt.
“Of course!” Nina replied firmly. “Once I get rid of Annabel for good, I can return to work at Benton Group p>
“Are you sure?” Talia asked.

“A hundred percent sure! Have some faith in me, Mom. I’ll get the best opportunity tomorrow,” Nina said viciously. “Annabel will be at Lover Lake for an advertisement shoot tomorrow. Once I see that she’s all alone near the lake, I’ll push her into it without anyone noticing. She will drown in no time. Even if her body is later found, it will be ruled as accidental drowning p>
A tumult of shouting broke out in the ward. The reporters were shocked to the bone. No one had expected such a revelation.
Annabel turned off the pen recorder and looked at Nina coldly. “Do you have anything else to say, Nina p>
Nina’s face turned ashen. She wished what had just happened was a dream. How the hell did Annabel get a recording of her phone call with her mother?
“Dear viewers, I believe you all saw what just happened. The tables have just been turned. It appears there’s more to the Lover Lake incident than meets the eye.” The reporters did not forget to interact with their audience despite how shocked they were.
“According to the latest evidence Annabel brought, we think it’s safe to say that Nina isn’t the victim but the mastermind behind the whole thing. Of course, we will leave it to the police to investigate properly. Like everyone else, we are looking forward to a fair judgment p>
