Chapter 9
Lilian cried piteously. When she heard me, she immediately pointed at me.
“Sir, I want to report a case. This woman killed
my
son!”
The cops walked over to pull Lilian away.
“We’ll take Summer Lloyd to the police station now. You guys can come along with us. We don’t let go of any criminal, nor do we accuse someone falsely.”
I went to the police station with them. In the meantime, Lilian continued to yell at me.
She claimed that I got her son killed. She wanted them to shoot me to death.
I looked at the cops. “Sir, I found a surveillance system at the top of the mountain. We’ll know the truth once we get the footage. Lucius’s death has nothing to do with me. He wanted to kill me instead.”
Lucius was ignorant of something when he took me up the mountain. The top of the mountain was monitored. He had committed a crime, whether I rescued him or not.
Lilian stopped crying when she heard that. She tried to stop the cops. “Why? She harmed my son! If not, how could he die? Can you guys do your job? You don’t have to check the videos. He’s already dead!”
The cops looked at Lilian. “Madam, we’ll only know who’s at fault here once we check the footage. If you keep this up, we have to arrest you for interfering with our work.”
Lilian stood aside, and Rebecca held her hand. Both of them looked helpless.
