Hadley was troubled seeing her like that.
How could she attract Leia's attention?
Hadley could have mentioned Matysh's name, but it would seem too obvious if she did that. She wanted to utter
Matysh's name when Leia was not paying attention. She would like to see the astonishment, panic, and chaos in her
eyes...
When Hadley was thinking of a way, the patient beside Leia did her a favor.
“Oh, that case. That rings a bell. It happened three years ago. The whole country was shocked by the news when it
was released." The patient beside Leia could not help but heave a sigh.
"Really? Have you heard about it too? Ms. Norman, did you hear anything about it?" Hadley deliberately asked Leia,
"I wasn't here back then. I have no idea." Leia removed the vegetables she did not like from her lunch box.
The patient beside her immediately explained to her, "I remember how they wrote it in the news. The father of a
teenage girl who had just stepped into early adulthood made her sleep with a foreigner for money. The teenage girl
was willing to do so. They asked the man for money after the girl slept with him, and the man gave them the
money, but the girl's father was dissatisfied, so he reported it to the police. The teenage girl pretended to be the
victim, trying to get more compensation. For some unknown reason, the news of the teenage girl sleeping with the
man spread like wildfire. People laughed at her. In the end, she couldn't take it anymore and jumped to her death.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer father got fired after the police found out that he had stolen the company's confidential documents. He lost his
job, and people laughed at him. He eventually killed himself."
“Serves him right." Leia curled her lips and judged the father and daughter.
When Hadley saw the cold expression on Leia's face, she could not help but wonder. 'Did Leia not sell her body for
some reason back then?'
Previously, Leia seemed to have gotten herself into big trouble. She was pregnant. Also, she found another rich
man whom she kept on the back burner.
However, she eventually failed to marry the rich man.
Leia had gone through the same thing before. How could she judge others so heartlessly?
Hadley slowly uttered, "Now, the police have made an announcement, clarifying that the news reported back then
was fake. The police have evidence to prove that the teenage girl was drugged by her father's superior. The girl
was forced to sleep with that man. She got raped without knowing it. That's why the foreigner was convicted of
sexual assault. I say, the news of the teenage girl's father stealing the confidential documents was probably fake
too. The superior probably felt guilty for doing such a thing. Thus, he wanted to get rid of her father. That's why he
deliberately accused him of stealing the documents."
“Didn't they arrest the suspect?” the patient asked.
"The foreigner is in A City now. That's why the police are in charge of the case. They got him. So, the truth has been
revealed. Look, they even revealed the suspect's name—Matysh Abaza," said Hadley.
Leia's hand shook when she heard Matysh's name. She immediately turned to look at Hadley and asked, "Where is
he from?”
"Let me see. They did mention it. Uh, he's Russian. They said he was arrested at the airport. The long arm of the
law finally caught up with him. The police said the suspect was trying to escape and return to Russia. Fortunately,
they waited for him at the airport in advance and arrested him." Hadley let out a sigh of relief. She finally let Leia
know that Matysh had been arrested.
Leia pushed the table away and picked up her phone.
Hadley deliberately asked, "Ms. Norman, what are you doing? You have to finish your lunch. Otherwise, it'll go cold
and it won't taste good."
"I'm done. Take it away." Leia lost her appetite the moment she heard Matysh's name.
Leia searched for the announcement made by the police on the internet, but she could not find the suspect's photo.
Leia frowned and sent a message to Mandy: [Do you know Matysh's full name?]
[I don't.] Mandy immediately replied to her message.
Before Leia could reply to her message, Mandy added: [Let me tell you something funny. Matysh came looking for
me again. He wanted me to sleep with him, and he said he'd pay me. But I wasn't that silly. My face is still swollen.
What a disgusting man.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[I don't want to hear this. Go and find out his full name.] Leia urged Mandy.
Mandy replied to her: [How am I supposed to find out what his full name is? Don't you know Russians have long
names? What's wrong with you?]
The expression on Leia's face was complicated. She lifted her head and shot a glance at Hadley. She was cleaning
up the table.
"What's the matter?" Hadley could sense Leia staring at her and deliberately asked.
Leia looked down without replying to her. She continued to reply to Mandy's message: [I saw the police's
announcement stating that they arrested a Russian suspect. Even though the case isn't related to the Norman
family, it happened a few years ago. But the suspect's name is Matysh. Take a look at it and see if it's really him.]
[How's that possible?! I remember Matysh telling me that he seldom travels to A City. How could he have
committed a crime here? Let me call him and talk to him.] Mandy refused to believe it.
If the call went through, it would prove that the suspect was not the Matysh they knew.
Leia replied: [Okay. Keep me updated.]
After a while, Mandy called her.
Leia frowned when she saw who called her. Then, she got out of bed.
"Ms. Norman, it's time to take your meds. Where are you going?" Hadley deliberately asked.
