Chapter 437 - 418: Getting Even-I
After a light discussion, Li Lian convince Violet to leave through the lobby. It wasn’t that she was confident there wouldn’t be any media out there or because she was confident she would be able to go through all the ocean of question the people would direct to her in the most sharpest way, but because Li Lian knew she had not done anything wrong. Hiding would mean she was in fear which doesn’t suit her.
Unexpectedly when Li Lian left from the lobby, it wasn’t the media that caught her eyes as there was almost to no people belonging to the media that came there, instead it was her father, Mr Xie. Upon seeing the man, Li Lian could tell he had also exchanged gaze to her but Li Lian didn’t wait for him and instead walked away.
"Li Lian!" Mr Xie called in a snap when he noticed how Li Lian had ignored him when he knew they had met eyes. His hand reached out to touch hers but was stopped by Violet. Mr Xie wasn’t pleased with what had happening and how Violet had went in between his business and he frowned, "I have to speak with my daughter, you are an outside, move!"
"How unpleasant it is to hear that I am still a daughter at times that is convenient to you," remarked Li Lian and she looked at Violet with a nod, having the female bodyguard to take two steps back and keenly watching Mr Xie’s next move. "I don’t have enough time to waste with you but let’s hear what you say. What business do you have with me?"
"Don’t act dumb, where is your grandmother? How dare you to keep her away from us after what you have done-"
"That I have been the cause for grandmother to fall from the stairs?" Li Lian chuckled as she had filled in Mr Xie’s words, "I knew you were not smart and so was the people in your household but to think you still don’t understand that it wasn’t me who caused this means more than enough to prove your idiocy. But perhaps it wasn’t because you are an idiot that you can’t understand or see the fire that had burn your house right underneath your feet as all the three of you have always blamed me for everything that ever happen in the house."
Mr Xie gave a facetious smile, "Are you trying to say you are not the one at fault here?"
Li Lian sighed, "Grandmother have a bad eyesight which can’t allow her to read closely, handwriting make it even harder for her to read things and without the help of eyeglass she won’t be able to see text. How do you think with her bad eyesight she could read the letter I sent her? Did you see her eyeglass near her during her fall? From the person who I asked they say they didn’t found it near her but in her room."
Left by her words, Mr Xie was tongue tied with the facts that Li Lian gave him. In a few minutes later although he would rather doubt Li Lian than other people, he can’t help but to think of the higher chances a person who pushed his mother from the staircase.
"Unfortunate news for you, Mr Xie, that person who pushed grandmother from the staircase is somewhere around the house. And don’t begin by blaming or accusing me; you saw who that letter was forged by to accuse me, didn’t you? In this case I am the lest suspicious person while you are one of the suspect along with all the people who lived in that house," Li Lian shook her head and crossed her hand, "I wonder who is going to fall from that staircase again."
"You-!"
