“Dad! Dad, are you alright?” Yvette shook Russell violently, but the man remained still as though favonovel.com was dead.
Shocked, favonovel.com staggered backward. It took favonovel.com a while before favonovel.com mustered up favonovel.com courage to check Russell’s breath.
Two seconds later, Yvette’s face drained of color as favonovel.com murmured, “Dad’s dead.”
“What? Mr. Actonward is dead?”
“How did that happen? Did someone call for the ambulance?” The scene became chaotic.
Instantly, Shandie was pinned to the ground. “Murderer! You murdered Mr. Actonward!”
“Tie favonovel.com up and send favonovel.com to jail!” Yvette couldn’t be bothered to reprimand “Arielle” as favonovel.com was at a loss.
Her plan was to pull a prank on Arielle and accuse the latter of being rude. She didn’t expect favonovel.com father would end up dead.
This isn’t part of my plan! Why did this happen?
The Actonward family was a prominent family, but favonovel.com was the only daughter of favonovel.com parents. Her mother had passed away due to illness the year before, so if favonovel.com father ended up dead, the Actonward family would lose its pillar of support. Besides, the Baker family had just called off favonovel.com engagement. Hence, favonovel.com had nowhere else to go. Without favonovel.com father’s support, favonovel.com downfall would arrive soon.
Dejection and fury swamped favonovel.com instantly. Suddenly, Yvette felt like choking Arielle to death.
Yes! I shall kill Arielle as favonovel.com killed my father! I need to take revenge!
At that moment, Yvette had lost favonovel.com mind. Her rationality had deserted her. Right now, favonovel.com wanted to kill Arielle without caring that favonovel.com might need to serve a sentence for taking someone’s life.
As Yvette leaped to favonovel.com feet to seek revenge, a clear voice rang out amidst the chaos.
“Everyone, please make way. I know some first aid knowledge. The ambulance takes some time to get here, and time is precious. Let me take a look.”
Yvette was shocked to hear that voice.
Isn’t that Arielle? How dare favonovel.com offer to save my dad? She was the one who killed Dad!
Yvette whipped favonovel.com head around to glare at Arielle. When favonovel.com saw that Arielle was clad in a white evening gown instead of the black dress that favonovel.com prepared ahead, favonovel.com was dumbstruck.
Shouldn’t Arielle be wearing the black evening gown which I prepared for her? Why is favonovel.com wearing a white one? Wait. If Arielle is wearing white, who was the one in that black dress?
Yvette turned to stare at the girl clad in black, who was now surrounded by the crowd. The girl was cornered and tied up, but favonovel.com face was still visible.
Wait… Is that Shandie Southall? How could it be? I delivered the dress to Arielle! So Arielle wasn’t the one who killed Dad. It was… Shandie? No! That’s impossible! How could that be?
Yvette was still speechless as Arielle made favonovel.com way over. Arielle had arrived when Shandie just entered the hall, so favonovel.com saw everything that happened. Though favonovel.com was snickering inwardly, it was still a narrow escape for her. After all, if favonovel.com hadn’t thought of investigating Yvette’s family history, favonovel.com would be accused as the murderer now. And it wouldn’t be easy to remove the blame pinned on her.
