Audrey stood before Harold.
Suddenly, Harold turned around and was about to return to the well.
Audrey immediately blocked him. Harold's eyes were red. He grabbed Audrey's arm and tried to push
her away. Audrey cried out in pain.
Before Audrey came to stop Harold, Bryson had already pressed Harold onto the ground.
Harold was in so much pain that he could not stand up.
Bryson took Audrey's arm and asked nervously.
"How are you? Are you hurt?"
Audrey smiled and shook her head at Bryson. "I'm fine. He just grabbed me. It doesn't matter."
Harold was still lying on the ground. Audrey guessed that he must be in great pain after being knocked
down by Bryson. Harold hit the floor with a dull thud.
Bryson was furious.
Harold struggled to get up and was about to move towards the well when Audrey stopped him.
"Stop! Do you still want to go and ask for an insult?"
Harold glared at Audrey and said, "Susie wouldn't do that. She must have been forced by Dick. She
didn't mean to say that!"
Audrey frowned and looked at Harold. He was stubborn.
"She was forced by Dick? What are you talking about? There was no one else in the room. It was not a
drama." Audrey stared at Harold and said excitedly, "Didn't you believe that she made you a
scapegoat? Or ... didn't you admit that you are stupid?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHarold was speechless.
Audrey was right.
He was stupid!
Although Susie had promised that she loved him, she would still come back to Dick.
He still couldn't believe that Susie lied to him, so he wanted to ask Susie whether it was true. If not, he
would still trust Susie.
However, he knew that it was true. Susie and Dick were taking advantage of him.
He just didn't want to admit that he was stupid.
But he was.
Harold was very disappointed and sad.
"Why, why did she do that?" He murmured.
Suddenly, Harold turned around to go down the well again.
Audrey grabbed his wrist and said, "What are you going to do? Do you really want to ask for an insult?"
Harold growled, "I'm going to kill them!"
If Harold knew the truth earlier, he wouldn't be put into prison, and his grandma would not pass away.
It was Susie's fault. He could not swallow it.
Audrey smiled coldly and spoke.
"You're going to kill them? What for and how?"
"As long as I can enter that secret room, I will break into his bedroom. And ..."
"You put it too simple. It's not that easy. If you fail to kill them, you will risk being killed," Audrey said, "If
you die, your grandma would not rest in peace."
Harold's eyes were red, and his hands clenched into fists.
As Harold did not say anything, Audrey continued to speak.
"She won't rest in peace. She brought you up, but you didn't cherish your life. Is it the way you repay
her?"
"I..."
"You what?" Audrey scolded, "This is a law-based society. Law will bring justice for us. They will pay
the prices for what they have done."
Harold's eyes darkened, and he put on a self-mocking smile.
"However, I am a murderer. There will be the second trial the day after tomorrow. I am afraid that ... I
could not be exonerated."
Audrey smiled slightly and said, "As long as you are willing to cooperate with me, you probably could."
Harold's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.
"Do you mean that I could clear my name?"
Audrey smiled. "Of course. If you are willing to cooperate with me, I can help you and they will be
punished. Are you willing?"
Audrey's eyes flashed with confidence. Harold thought she looked familiar.
He was confused and asked, "Audrey, have ... have we met before?"
Audrey raised her eyebrows and smiled. "Maybe."
"When?" Harold asked.
"Alright. It's late and I'm tired. Let's go back to the hotel to rest!"
Harold was speechless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"When did we meet?" Harold immediately stood in front of Audrey. He stared at her and asked.
Harold was as stubborn as Audrey.
Audrey smiled. "If you want to know, I will tell you the day after tomorrow when you are exonerated!"
Harold was speechless.
"Alright!" Audrey patted Harold on the shoulder and said, "It's time to go back."
Audrey walked past Harold, held Bryson's hand, and left.
"Bryson, there is a night market two blocks ahead. How about having a night snack first?"
"Okay!"
Harold wanted to ask Audrey more questions. But he stopped when he saw Bryson and Audrey
walking forward hand in hand.
It was too much for Harold, who was crossed in love.
...
Bryson and Audrey decided to have a night snack at the night market. Harold did not want to be the
third wheel, nor did he bear to see them display affection. So he went back to the hotel with the
bodyguards.
There was a Moonlight Bar on the street. Audrey immediately pulled Bryson into the bar.
The bar was illuminated with colorful lights and roared with loud music. People were drinking and
having fun.
On the stage, the dancers were dancing to their heart's content, with their bodies wet in sweat. The
people offstage were cheering.
They took their seats. Then Audrey ordered beer, kebabs, and dishes. The bodyguards also sat around
them and had some food. They were keeping an eye on the people around to prevent anyone from
getting close to Bryson and Audrey.
When a girl saw Bryson and Audrey, she got up and came over to them.
The bodyguards didn't care much.
