Chapter 894 Alice Detained (2)
Alice was all flustered during the police questioning, thinking, 'Did Sandra really call the cops? No way! Is she just trying to scare me?'
She eyed the two officers in front of her. "Are you guys really cops?"
"Miss Cullen, just answer the question. Did you cause the injuries on Miss Hall's face?"
Alice clenched her teeth. "Sandra started it! I just fought back, and I didn't even hit her that hard. It's all her fault, not mine." Suddenly, it hit her—Sandra had set her up!
Feeling uneasy with no familiar faces around, Alice answered all the cops' questions, insisting Sandra provoked her and she had no choice but to fight back.
The police checked the lounge's surveillance footage. After a few minutes, they confirmed Alice had started the fight with Sandra.
That night, Alice was taken to the police station because Sandra refused to settle. Alice tried to resist the detention, but it was no use.
Diana watched as Alice was put into the police car, feeling like everything had gone horribly wrong.
Not just Diana, but some other socialites who left a bit later saw it too. And a bunch of media folks stuck around to get the scoop, all ready to report on Alice being taken away.
Public opinion blew up instantly.
Sandra recorded another video. Even though she wasn't in the entertainment biz, her family had money and businesses. She was a minor internet celeb with hundreds of thousands of followers on Facebook, always recommending makeup, perfumes, and handbags.
In the video, Sandra's face was wrapped in bandages, and she was crying her eyes out, accusing Alice of scratching her face and disfiguring her.
The short video, just a few dozen seconds long, got reposted by tons of influencers and media outlets, spreading like wildfire. Even lawyers were sharing it.
With the well-known socialite gala and the previous video of Sandra and Alice fighting still fresh, this new wave hit hard.
[So, Alice messed up Sandra's face and got taken away by the cops?]
[That's so violent. Are socialites like this now? Wasn't Alice supposed to be nice? How did she turn into such a shrew all of a sudden?]
[In the video, Alice is the one who splashed Sandra first and then scratched her face.]
At the Howard Mansion, Rachel had just gotten home and saw Melissa chatting with Claire in the living room. When they saw Rachel, they asked, "Rachel, how was your night?"
Rachel was a bit surprised. "Aunt Melissa, Mom, you two don't know yet?"
"Know what?" Claire rarely followed entertainment gossip and didn't pay attention to these things.
Melissa occasionally looked at some news hotspots but wouldn't be paying attention late at night.
Rachel took out her phone, her expression a bit complicated, and showed them a video. "Look, it's all over the trending news now. It's all about Alice causing a scene at the socialite gala."
After they watched the video, Melissa's face darkened, worried that Alice's actions would ruin the Howard family's reputation.
