Chapter 193 Phillipe's Divine Assistance
Abella was utterly perplexed. Couldn't she simply go upstairs to her room?
"Everyone knows that the surveillance room is on the third floor! Miss Abella deliberately diverted everyone's attention, just so she could go upstairs and delete the footage, right?"
"What evidence do you have?" Lauren was getting furious.
"You don't have any evidence to prove Miss Abella's innocence either!"
"That's enough." Mrs. Medici couldn't bear it anymore. Her displeased gaze fell on Grace, "You're becoming more and more audacious. Abella is my biological daughter. Are you trying to sever ties here and spend the rest of your life away from home?"
"Madam, Miss Lola has been kind to me these past years. Seeing her injured like this, I had to speak up! If I misunderstand Miss Abella, I will apologize to her later, but for now, I ask Miss Abella to give me an explanation! Why is it that you and Miss Lola passed by the same place, yet you didn't slip?"
"Because I saw oil on that spot," Abella casually replied.
No one else saw it, so it couldn't be blamed on her!
"Listen, she indeed knew there was oil on that spot!" Grace seemed to have the upper hand and smiled, "I also want to ask, why did Phillipe suddenly look for Miss Lola? Did you lie? Phillipe never actually looked for her! It was something you made up with the intention of causing Miss Lola to slip!"
With these thoughts, Lola looked at Abella in disbelief. Could this wretched girl have deceived her?
Phillipe never looked for her...
No... If that's really the case, she'll definitely tear into this deceitful wench!
"Why do you care about why Phillipe was looking for her?" Abella found it amusing.
Seeing her like this, Grace knew she was lying and chuckled, "Due to Phillipe's noble status, I naturally cannot inquire, but Miss Abella can!"
What she meant was, she should make a call to Phillipe?
"Grace!" Mr. Medici was about to ask her to leave the house when Abella spoke up.
"Fine, no problem."
Abella nonchalantly took out her phone and dialed Phillipe's number, putting it on speaker.
Lola felt nervous yet secretly hoped that Phillipe indeed had something to talk to her about!
If Abella had deceived her, she wouldn't let this wretched girl off!
Soon, the call connected.
"Abella."
Whenever Phillipe called Abella's name, his voice was incredibly pleasant, a bit alluring, and carried a hint of indulgence.
His voice had a charming undertone, "Have you eaten?"
"Not yet," Abella replied softly.
"Are you hungry?"
"Not hungry," Abella said.
"It's rare for you to call me," Phillipe's voice sounded pleased, "I happened to miss you. What are you doing?"
They didn't expect Philippe to dote on Abella so much in private!
"I am on speakerphone," Abella said directly, trying to prevent him from saying more intimate words. "What did you need Lola for this afternoon?"
She threw the problem directly at him.
Speakerphone? What did he need Lola for?
Philippe instantly realized, "It's nothing."
Lola felt a bit disappointed. She thought Philippe wanted to confess his feelings to her or invite her to meet, have coffee, and chat.
"I wanted to tell her that I only like you. Last time, when I went to your house for breakfast, before your uncle and aunt woke up, she expressed her feelings to me, and I rejected her."
Lola widened her eyes, never expecting Philippe to bring this up!!
Maria couldn't believe it either. Philippe actually said it...
And he was on speakerphone!!
Sure enough, Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici couldn't believe it and their faces turned extremely ugly.
"I don't like her. Firstly, I wanted her to give up, secondly, I didn't want her to hurt your uncle and aunt, and thirdly, it's a warning to her not to bully you anymore."
Everyone was stunned. Did that mean Miss Lola often bullies Miss Abella in private?
"You are kind," Philippe's tone carried doting and concern. "You always keep me out of it and forbid me from talking to your uncle and aunt. Don't think I don't know that you've been treated unfairly at home."
Abella was interested. This guy was quite good at talking.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici were even more heartbroken and angry to learn that their beloved daughter had suffered unfair treatment upon returning home.
"You're afraid they would be saddened, but by not telling them the truth, you're the one who ends up hurt. You bear too much on your own. Not all kindness brings rewards, although I know you don't expect anything in return. That's just who you are, pure and simple."
Phillipe knew she was on speakerphone and deliberately said it for certain people to hear. "No matter what she does, I only like you."
Lola was struck like lightning, completely stupefied!
"It's okay, I'll hang up now," Abella didn't wait for him to finish, she ended the call directly.
Silence filled the room...
No one could believe it. Miss Lola's ambition was so great that she secretly seduced Philippe and bullied Miss Abella!
"Dad, Mom, it's not what you think..." Lola wanted to explain, but her body was in too much pain. As soon as she tried to move, she fell off the sofa, her bones aching and falling apart.
"Are you saying that Philippe is lying?" Mrs. Medici couldn't believe that Philippe, that child, would lie. With his status, he had no reason to frame anyone!
"We treat you like our own daughter, and yet, when we're not looking, you try to seduce Abella's fiancé and bully her!" Mrs. Medici slammed the table in anger.
Lola was scared and quickly crawled next to her.
"Mom, you misunderstood! That was in the past! I did have a little inappropriate thought about my brother-in-law before, but I really don't like him anymore!"
"Madam, don't be swayed! Today, we are investigating Miss Lola's fall!" Grace quickly changed the subject.
"Shut your mouth!" Mrs. Medici knew that this servant was not a good person!
"Don't you want the truth?" Abella's voice casually reached everyone's ears. "Then let me give you the truth. Lauren, please bring me the laptop from the room."
"Yes." Lauren quickly went to get it.
Soon, in front of everyone's eyes, Abella typed one string of code after another on the keyboard.
Everyone watched as lines and lines of code appeared on the computer screen. Although they didn't know what she was doing, it seemed impressive!
Mr. Medici and Mrs. Medici were also puzzled by their daughter's actions. What was she doing??
After a while, the surveillance footage from 5:30 PM to 6:00 PM was restored!
Maria couldn't believe her eyes and looked at Grace in astonishment!
Grace was also incredulous. How could it be? She had personally deleted the surveillance footage from the past half-hour!
She even emptied the recycle bin!
