Telling Lies, loving you novel Chapter 138

"Aunt, I know you are blaming me for not protecting Michelle well. I admit that what Michelle did has something to do with me. I don't care whether you hit me or scold me. I will do anything for you as long as you forgive me. " After hesitating for a while, Scott began to mistake him as a child.

Yes, it was his fault. If it weren't for him, Michelle wouldn't have been locked in the mall or the freezer in the supermarket.

It was all because of him.

Scott blamed himself and hated himself. But what could he do now? He couldn't get Michelle out of her coma and show up in front of him safely.

"Well, I know you did it unintentionally. It's work after all. No one can decide the bad things happen. " Looking at the sincere expression of Scott who took the initiative to apologize, Olivia did not want to blame him. The doctor had told her that Michelle's physical condition was okay now. She just needed more rest and pay attention to keep warm.

Now, although her hands were cold, the temperature in her body was gradually warming up.

The heating was on in the ward. Since Michelle need the warmth very much, Scott had been holding this heat. In fact, he was the one who suffered.

He had been beside Michelle, so he must feel very sad now.

Olivia was not an unreasonable person, so she chose to forgive him.

They sat on the bedside together. Seeing her face turning crimson with shyness, they felt relieved.

In her dream.

Michelle found herself still in the cold warehouse. She wanted to stand up, but she didn't have any strength. And his wrist could not be bent, as if it had been pointed on her acupoint by a person.

She screamed in her heart, hoping that someone outside could hear her voice and come to her rescue.

"Is anyone here?" Her lips were trembling, but she could still make a slight sound.

However, there was nothing but silence outside.

At the same time, the lights above her head made some unusual sound, and the light flickered one after another. Before she had time to look up, however, with a "bang" sound, the light suddenly broke, and the entire narrow space suddenly turned dark, and she could not see her fingers.

Michelle's heart sank and she felt more hopeless.

"Help!"

"Is anyone here?"

"It's so cold. My vision seems to be getting dimmer and dimmer..."

The next day, she was awakened by the noise from outside.

She opened her eyes in a daze and only felt ache all over her body. Looking at the white wall above her head, she suddenly realized that she was in a hospital.

What happened to her? Was she sick?

"Michelle, how are you feeling now? Are you still cold? Are you hungry? "

Scott's handsome face enlarged with the voice. Michelle raised her hand to touch his face. She thought she was dreaming, because she remembered she was in the freezer?

Yes, it must be a dream.

She was about to close her eyes when she felt the warmth from his hand. She looked at him again, and after a long time, she discovered that this was not a dream.

Scott, he is really in her sight and within her range.

Seeing her in a daze, Scott couldn't help but want to kiss her. So he lowered his head and kissed her.

Michelle seemed to be unconscious. She moved her lips slightly and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say a word.

She only felt cold all over. Scott glanced at her pale and bleak face, he asked softly, "are you still cold?"

It took quite a while for Michelle to understand what had just happened. She then realized that if she had been frozen yesterday. When she was about to speak, she was hugged by Scott. He was so strong as if he was afraid that she would slip away from him.

At that moment, Michelle felt extremely warm.

She put her hands on his back, held him in her arms and knocked her chin on his shoulder. "I thought I would die there."

"You little fool, how can I let you die? Even if you die, I will stay with you. "

"Don't be silly. I don't like it." After she heard what Scott said, Michelle got angry at once. She immediately pushed him away and then turned her head away.

Scott realized that he had said something wrong, but since it was his truth, he didn't mean to apologize.

"I can't accompany you in the hospital today. I have something to deal with in the company." He looked at her apologetically and tied up the messy hair on her forehead behind her ears.

Michelle didn't say anything but nodded with a smile.

Olivia was in the hospital to keep her company, which made Scott feel at ease. Reluctantly, he left the hospital. He got on the black Porsche and drove away from the place.

The car was parked in front of the gate of the Barstow Mall.

When Scott opened the door and got off, he was stopped by the media that rushed out from the mall. Many questions overwhelmed him.

"Mr. Scott, the Barstow Mall is the largest enterprise under your company. It was said that a child was missing here yesterday and was found at midnight. The mother of the child was immediately sent to the hospital. That woman now asks you to pay her daughter's mental damage compensation. How much do you intend to pay? "

"Mr. Scott, the Barstow Mall existed in the C City for years, there was nothing happened. But what happened yesterday has caused a sensation in the city. What do you think? "

"What are you going to do with it? Will your business be influenced? "

Behind the innumerable microphones were countless gossips, because Jiang Group were well-known in the world. As the ruler of Jiang Group, Scott had never been expected that such a big thing happened to one of his subordinates. They really wanted to see how he would deal with it.

But Scott just glanced at everyone present with a faint sneer on his handsome face, "get out of the way."

He always felt that this matter was not as simple as he had imagined. What happened to the mother and daughter was too appalling. How could a kid be missing in such a big shopping mall?

If the child was locked in the freezer, it would be cold for a normal adult to stay in it for ten minutes. And that kid could still come out. Did this mean that she had just been in?

All he wanted now was to find out the truth. As for the compensation that that woman asked for, of course he didn't lack it. But why was the door of the freezer closed with no reason? This was still a mystery.

The security guards in the mall said that it was because the gates of the freezer were rusty. There was a spring on both sides of the door, and the door was closed automatically as long as the person inside hadn't pushed it hard. Because of the ice on the door, the ground is very slippery, and because of the ice on the spring.

Since the media have come, there must be policemen.

The moment Scott entered the door, he received the police's respect. One of the men said, "Mr. Scott, let's talk in another place."

"Okay."

When Scott went upstairs, the manager greeted him hurriedly, and the policemen followed him closely.

A group of people went into the manager's office with great strength. Sitting on the leather sofa, Scott crossed his legs. The leading policeman sat opposite him, on the table there were several steaming hot tea cups.

Standing behind Scott, the manager acted as an invisible person.

"Joy Yang, do you think it was an accident or a man-made one?"

Scott looked into the policeman Joy Yang's eyes. Joy Yang kept silent for a long time. When Scott saw that, he frowned with displeasure. There was a trace of impatience in his eyes.

"We haven't investigated this yet, but that woman came to report a case and asked for your compensation." Policeman Joy Yang was a little nervous, so Scott offered him the tea which was an undeniable honor.

Putting down the teacup, Joy Yang thought for a while and told the truth. He was a man of action. After all, evidence spoke louder than words.

"I don't think that woman just wants some compensation. I can give whatever she wants. But I hope you can find out the truth of the whole thing and whether someone is plotting against me. Especially, we need to turn the whole supermarket over and see if there are any traces of man-made on the door. "

In any case, Scott felt that there was someone behind it. Since the freezer was so dark, it was not surprising that there was a person hiding there.

If the little girl was lying in the freezer at that time, probably he would not have so many concerns.

But the problem was, the security guard and the manager said that it was the little girl who took the initiative to run out. She was alive after spending such a long time in the freezer, she must be a God or a ghost.

"Don't worry, Mr. Scott. I'll find out the truth."

The policeman Joy Yang did feel strange when he heard it. But he needs time and energy.

As for that woman, since she was asking for money, Scott wouldn't be mean. But he didn't want to waste his time on this if he was to be taken to court.

After Joy Yang left, Scott asked the manager and security guards to drive the media away. After all, the bees are making too much noise. They are really disturbing.

He didn't know what the media got from that woman. Anyway, after this incident, Scott felt that it was an extreme mistake to let Michelle come to the mall in the first place!

If the assistant was sent instead of Michelle, then this must not happen, right?

But if someone was behind this thing, how could the person know that Scott would send Michelle to handle this? Anyway, if it was just a coincidence, how could it be possible?
