Lionel looked at me in shock and asked, “Georgia, just how many men are you involved with? And what’s going on with you and him?”
Hansel calmly stood with his back to me and asked him back, “What does it have to do with you? Who are you?”
“I’m her boyfriend, what does it have to do with me?”
Hansel snorted coldly, looking at him with a disdain smile. “Seeing the way you’re holding the young lady next to you, I would have thought you were her boyfriend if you hadn’t said it.”
Sarah looked at me with a resentful expression on her face and then spoke up angrily, “Whatever you say, Georgia’s stealing was stolen. This man also admitted it and she has no way to argue.”
“Mr. Rooney, you are a respectable person.

Don’t get involved with such a promiscuous woman, be careful not to be implicated.”
Hansel sneered and with a glance, the bodyguard beside him threw the staff in the monitoring room to the ground.
Sarah’s face turned pale immediately.
“Mr. Rooney, what do you … mean by this?”
Hansel did not pay attention to her at all. He looked down at the staff member lying on the ground with a commanding aura and said, “What do you think is going on?”
The man was so frightened that he was trembling all over. He glanced at Sarah and opened his mouth. “This lady gave me a sum of money and told me to delete the surveillance footage and she lied that the surveillance camera was broken.”
Sarah’s eyes were red. She looked at Lionel pitifully and said aggrievedly, “I was
wrongly accused, I didn’t do that.”
“This must be Hansel’s way of forcing them

to confess in order to clear Georgia’s name.”
“He doesn’t have any surveillance backup at all, so he’s just acting and trying to frame me here.”
Lionel looked at him with a mocking smile. “So you like to play such low–level games?”
“I’m willing to do anything to help Gia, even if it means finding someone to give false testimony and lie.”
Hansel looked at him like a fool and said calmly, “In my opinion, you really have no redeeming qualities at all. I really don’t know what Gia sees in you?”
“Could it be that she really was kicked in
the head by a donkey?”
Then he took out a copy of the surveillance video. “You will see the truth. See for yourself!”
Lionel did not care and asked, “What kind of tricks do you want to play?”
In just a few second later, he froze

completely when he saw the video.
He stared at the screen, his voice trembling, “How come?”
It was the surveillance video on the deck.
The video showed that when the bride was throwing the bouquet, I was standing at the end of the crowd. When I was pushed to the railing, Sarah pushed me into the sea. The video was very high–definition and I could still see the gloomy smile on her face meaning.
Then she glanced at Lionel and jumped into the sea herself, swimming to a distance and calling for help.
The range of the screen was very wide that I could even see the details of him ignoring my call for help and watching me nearly die.
Lionel looked at Sarah in shock and asked, “Why? Why did you do that?”
Sarah looked confused, her whole body

trembling as she grabbed his arm. “I don’t know. I didn’t mean it. I was frightened at the time. I was pushed by others. I….”
Faced with her panicked explanation, Lionel’s face turned cold and he looked incredulous. “How could you not know? Your expression and behavior in the video clearly showed that you pushed Georgia.”
“When did you become so vicious? This is a life?”
She cried with a look of grievance. “Lionel, I really didn’t mean to. Didn’t you also choose not to save her?”
