Chapter 99: Getting Framed
Fizzy...
Rory remembered her phone call, thinking about Liam. She wondered if he has finished giving his statement. She also wondered if he won’t talk too much and get entangled in trouble.
"One moment...I have to call Liam..." She stood up and walked to the window. But she paused as she thought of something.
"I got a call from a detective regarding the death of a woman, Mrs. Delport," Rory decided to inform her. She wasn’t even sure if her grandmother is the big shot she believes she is. Because she never helped her.
But if she is, she might help them if help is needed, right?
"What woman?" Mrs. Delport has calmed by now after the sudden attack from Rory and had her usual pleasant smile.
"Allison. She and I..." Rory gulped.
She already regretted bringing up Allison. Now she will have to explain to her family that she hit Allison in the face just days before she went missing and was killed cruelly.
"You didn’t get along?" Mrs. Delport guessed it already by her expression. "You recently had any altercation with her?" she quizzed Rory.
"Yes. And I...pu-punched her in the face the last time I met her..." Rory paused as Agnes let out a deep sigh. Mrs. Delport gulped but she still had a smile on her face—a forced smile.
"And..."
"There is more... Ma’am, there is more," Mrs. Delport clenched her hands over her lap and was still having the same smile on her face.
