Chapter 118 - 116: Resigned to Fate [Part 1]
Hannah listened to Jane Spencer’s warning, panicked, and hurriedly explained, "Jane, you can’t say such things carelessly. Even if Elia and I had a hundred times the courage, we wouldn’t dare push her into the sea! Besides, your grandfather is going to announce her identity as the fifth young lady later, I wouldn’t dare to do such a thing."
After Hannah explained, the crowd once again erupted in chaos. So, Maya Spencer was the fifth young lady of the Spencer Family. However, the third young master truly cares for this sister; he doesn’t even care for his own life for her sake. He said he would jump into the sea and did just that. It seems this fifth young lady is very favored at home.
Jane Spencer looked at Hannah’s flustered appearance and said fiercely, "Don’t think you can get away with it."
"Jane, it really wasn’t us."
At this moment, Elia couldn’t hold back anymore. She was dissatisfied, dissatisfied that every misdeed in the family was blamed on her and her mother. Moreover, this matter really had nothing to do with them. So, she said angrily, "Elder sister, why do you have to suspect us? Didn’t Sienna Carter have an even deeper grudge against Maya Spencer? Why do you have to pin this on my mom and me? We didn’t do it."
Not far away, Sienna Carter, hearing Elia’s words, exploded and rushed forward to explain, "It wasn’t me. I did think about getting back at Maya Spencer, but I wouldn’t let her die so easily. I want to pay her back at least for the losses she made me suffer. Letting her fall into the sea would be letting her off easy."
Sienna, eager to clear her own name, spoke recklessly. Right now, it’s not just Maya in the sea; there are the Six-man team, Lillian Morris, and Henry Reid. So many lives, all uncertainties. She would not take the blame.
"Everyone shut up." At this point, Old Master Spencer was furious, pounding the deck with his cane, yelling at the noisy crowd.
