Chapter 163 The Phone Is Picked Up
"How could a young person be resting so early?" Mrs. Medici suddenly understood. No wonder Abella called in the morning with a slightly unpleasant tone. Was it because Sophia caused trouble for her?
The designer from the Russell Family also participated in the design competition today?
Thinking this, Mr. Medici asked angrily, "Is your injury related to her? If it is, Dad will demand an explanation from the Russell Family!"
"This matter has nothing to do with anyone else," Abella said, looking at Lola. "Aren't you going to make a phone call?"
Lola was caught in a dilemma and reluctantly took out her phone. If she made the call, wouldn't all the lies be exposed? Where would she hide her face in the future?
"Miss Abella, Lola has always regarded you as an older sister. You misunderstood her," Maria said, pretending to sympathize. "In Lola's heart, you hold the most importance as her sister. How could she spread rumors carelessly and hurt your heart, destroying this precious sisterly bond?"
Abella: ...
"You've just arrived in this family, so maybe you don't understand Lola's character. But for the past eighteen years, Lola's character has been known very well by the Lord and Lady," Maria continued. "By saying this, you not only hurt Lola's feelings but also disrupted the harmony in the family, making it difficult for the Lady."
"If Lola had to choose between you and Phillipe, she would definitely choose you!"
"You really misunderstood Lola!"
Tears welled up in Lola's eyes, making her appear even more innocent and pitiful.
Abella: ?
So, all of this is her fault?
Wasn't Lola wrong?
"Maria," Mrs. Medici interrupted, extending her hand to stop her. "I know Lola's character very well, but Abella is not someone who spreads baseless rumors. I have watched Sophia grow up since she was little. Although she may be a bit spoiled, she would not be indiscriminate."
Maria and Lola felt a sense of foreboding upon hearing this.
"If Sophia knew that Abella is my biological daughter and that her engagement with Phillipe is not only legitimate but also filled with mutual affection... If she knew Lola's identity, then she wouldn't have recklessly caused trouble for Abella."
There are only two possibilities: either she doesn't know Lola's adopted status, or she doesn't know Abella's true identity.
So, did Lola not tell her, or did Lola intentionally hide and mislead her? This is crucial.
"If that girl from the Russell Family believes that Abella stole Lola's fiancé, what does that make Abella?"
A shameless homewrecker?
"Well, then this problem becomes very serious. If your friend misunderstood, you should quickly call and clarify it," Mrs. Medici said.
Lola, with tears in her eyes, pitifully said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I'll call Sophia right away."
"Put it on speakerphone, I want to hear what she says."
"Madam?" Maria heard this and intentionally made a surprised expression, "Don't you trust Miss Lola? Before Miss Abella returned home, you were not like this..."
Lola's tears continued to stream down, feeling extremely wronged.
"Abella has endured eighteen years of suffering outside. From the moment she stepped into this house, I made a promise in my heart to protect her and never let her suffer even the tiniest bit of harm!"
Mrs. Medici said this, looking at Maria, "For these eighteen years, our entire family has treated Lola like our own, even when Abella wasn't here. We have never reduced what we should give and should take care of! We just added a little more for Abella! Isn't this right?"
Maria quickly changed her stance and said, "Madam, you misunderstood, of course it's right, what I meant was..."
"Now that I know about this matter, I can't let my own daughter be called a homewrecker! I must find out what exactly happened. Dial the number, put it on speakerphone!"
The truth will soon be revealed.
Lola knew she couldn't escape, so she dialed Sophia's alternate mobile number, tears streaming down her face.
Ring...ring...ring...
The call continued until the end, but no one picked up.
Lola secretly breathed a sigh of relief, luckily Sophia has two phones, two numbers...
"Sophia must be asleep, it's okay, I'll call again."
Lola knew Sophia rarely used this number, so she confidently dialed again.
As expected, no one picked up.
"Sophia must be asleep..." Maria secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that she didn't answer the call, otherwise Miss Lola would have been exposed!
Mrs. Medici checked the clock, it was only ten o'clock at night, young people couldn't possibly be asleep so early.
"Leave her a voice message."
Upon hearing Mrs. Medici's words, Lola froze. A, a voice message??
Although Sophia had two mobile numbers, she only had one WhatsApp account. If Lola called now, wouldn't it be self-sabotage?
"I think I have followed Sophia's WhatsApp..." Mrs. Medici suddenly remembered and took out her phone, looking for Sophia's WhatsApp.
Lola was scared, if Mrs. Medici directly asked Sophia, it would be better for her to make the call herself!
"Mom, I'll make the call..." Lola hurriedly said, "This is a small matter, I can handle it myself..."
She dialed the voice call with a brave face, and in just a few seconds, Sophia picked up.
"Lola? You're not asleep yet?" Sophia's cheerful and warm voice came from the other end.
"Sophia! Did you..."
"Did Abella bother my sister?"
Without waiting for her to answer, Lola quickly finished her words, "I know you mean well, but my sister and brother-in-law are a match made in heaven! From now on, you must not act recklessly anymore. My sister has misunderstood you enough. Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to explain to my sister now. Don't mess things up in the future..."
After saying this, Lola hung up the phone in a hurry.
Mr. Medici: ...
Mrs. Medici: ...
Abella: ...
Sophia was stunned, what's going on? Why did she randomly call and say these things? Did Abella bother Lola?
Lola couldn't tolerate a relative sister bullying her...
Isn't it just an assistant? What is there to be afraid of!
It must be because...
Sophia subconsciously touched her own neck, recalling how Abella slapped her today at the competition venue...
Lola must have been threatened with violence, that's why she inexplicably made this call to her?
Lola didn't reply to the WhatsApp message sent to her today...
Thinking like this, Sophia called again, very worried about Lola's safety.
After ending the voice call, Lola turned off her phone.
Sophia couldn't reach her, so she had to leave a message to inquire about the situation...
Seeing that Lola didn't reply, she became even more anxious.
Lola lifted her teary eyes and said pitifully, "Sister, don't worry, I won't snatch your husband. Your husband only has you in his heart and mind. Even if I had such thoughts, it would be useless."
Before Abella could speak, Lola stood up again and said in a heartbroken tone, "I won't have the midnight snack with your husband, so you won't misunderstand again. I'll go upstairs and rest first..."
