Love of Tomorrow (Vania Greyson) novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99 The Twist

Upon being interrogated in such a way, Melanie was instantly speechless; she couldn’t come up with a remark to support her statements. Now she had completely played into Vania’s hands and let the latter lead her around by the nose. With no opportunity to take the offensive at all, she had no choice but to stay on the defensive, but it was difficult for her to even defend herself against the questions Vania had thrown at her.

Meanwhile, Josie had been regulating the online comments all this while, but there were signs of tables being turned.

‘Vania is too composed, isn’t she? There’s no way she could fake it.’

‘I thought Melanie’s evidence would prove Vania’s guilt all at once. And yet this is all she’s got?’

‘Now I’m waiting for the twist.’

‘There’s quite plenty of interesting stuff to watch today, isn’t there?’

Most of the netizens had stopped taking sides and were now sitting by and waiting for what was next.

The furrows in Hanson’s brow had eased as he was sitting there. Obviously, he had made his own judgment on what was going on.

Indeed, the document Melanie had gotten from Mr. Wright was the only piece of evidence she had. Left with no choice, she could only brazen it out, saying, “Okay, I’ll text Mr. Wright right now. Once he replies to my text message, it’ll prove that I did get the evidence from him.”

Vania still looked as imperturbable as ever. “Sure, no problem.”

How could she not even be scared by this? A hint of suspicion arose in Melanie’s mind. What makes her look so indifferent to all of this? Did anything go wrong at some point? she thought. However, now that things had developed to this stage, she no longer had time to verify anything. Right now, the only thing she could and had to do was pick up her phone and send a WhatsApp message under the eyes of those at the scene as well as everyone watching the live broadcast on the internet. ‘Are you there, Mr. Wright?’

Everyone held their breath and waited in anticipation. Then…

Nothing happened.

There was no response from the other end. The message sent by Melanie showed a single check mark indicating that it had been sent, but that was all. At first, everyone thought Mr. Wright might be taking his time to reply to Melanie’s message, and they waited patiently. However, as seconds ticked by, murmurs began to arise from the crowd, becoming louder and louder until they filled the whole room.
