Lucy’s POV
I felt so sorry for Helen.Her face was swollen from the hard slap The red palm print was still on her face as a horrible reminder of Jane’s viciousness.
But Helen was not a vindictive brat.No matter how much of injustice she had suffered, she would quietly internalize it and suffer in silence Pitiable as it was, she felt that it was the sensible thing to do.I beat Jane up badly today and helped Helen teach her a lesson.
Some people were used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong Jane was such a bully.I had to let her know that Helen was not a woman she could trample on and that I would protect her! Helen had me to stand up for her! If she dared to hurt Helen again, I would definitely teach her a harder lesson! However, I chose not to tell Helen that Jane had called the police on me today I was detained in the police station for questioning the entire afternoon.
Jane insisted on suing me for assault.It was only when George reasoned with her that she dropped the charges To be honest, when I saw Jane in the police station, she looked badly roughed up.
Her hair was disheveled and her shirt was torn in several places.I took full credit for her condition.
Although there were no visible bruises on her body.I indeed mercilessly hit her with all my might.
She was no longer elegant and graceful as she used to be.She looked like a tramp Later, Jane’s mother, Libby, rushed over when she heard the news.
The moment she saw George coming, she immediately walked up to him and complained how barbaric I was and how much Jane had suffered.
"George, it’s so good that you are finally here! We must sue this vixen.This matter can’t be settled out of court! You know, Jane has never been wronged like this in her life.How could that wildcat, Lucy, hit her?"
Libby and Jane were both in favor of suing me.
Jane bowed her head and cried to win sympathy, while Libby asked George to speak on Jane’s behalf.
They acted like the victims here and people who didn’t know what really happened would totally buy it.
There was no way that Helen could ever handle such scheming people on her own George ignored them at first But after Libby finished speaking, he looked at them and said calmly.
"It was Jane who started it."
His voice was calm, but his eyes were as sharp and as cold as ice cones.He was blaming her in no uncertain terms.
