Chapter 1015 Never Underestimate Women’s Jealousy
When Sofia heard this, her expression finally softened somewhat. After getting into the
car, she instructed in a grave voice, “Let’s go to Tessa’s place first. Now that things have
turned out in such a way, we’ve got to tell her about it and send more people to look for
the stage operator.”
Kellen nodded. Then, he started the car and drove straight to Tessa’s place. In the
luxurious living room, Tessa looked as black as thunder when she learned of the purpose
of the two’s visit. Nicholas, in particular, had his good-looking features screwed up in a
surly expression; he emanated a frosty vibe that would freeze one to the marrow.
Sofia and Kellen were both frightened, as they’d never seen him looking so menacing
before. On the other hand, Tessa knitted her brows in bewilderment. “Why would Susan
plot against me like this? Well, I did have a vague feeling that she seemed to be holding a
grudge against me, but I don’t think there’s a reason for her to have such a vendetta
against me. Why would she set me up like this?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTaking her by the hand, Nicholas reminded her, saying, “Don’t underestimate any
woman’s hostility. As long as they hate someone, they can do anything.”
Tessa thought his words made sense. A woman’s jealousy can never be underestimated.
The next instant, her face hardened at the thought of what had happened on stage. “Miss
Sofia, may I ask if she’s also the one behind what happened to the stage elevator?” At
first, it didn’t occur to her that what had happened on stage was aimed at her. She had
thought that someone was targeting the orchestra, but when she found out later that
Nicholas was looking into the incident, she finally realized that the incident was more
complicated than it seemed. Therefore, she took it very seriously. After all, someone was
trying to harm her baby!
After listening to her words, Sofia shook her head and replied, “That’s not clear at the
moment because the stage operator has gone missing. Still, she’s a strong suspect. Only
she has a motive for doing this.”
Tessa’s face darkened.
Upon seeing this, Sofia promised, “Don’t worry about this. I’ll get to the bottom of this and
give you an explanation.”
Tessa nodded.
…
Two days later, the stage operator was found.
After the man was caught, Sofia marched him straight to the hospital without questioning
him. Accompanying her were Kellen and Eunice, who had gotten word of it.
Seeing Sofia and others in the ward, Susan sat up in her sickbed, her expression darkened.
“What do you mean by doing this, Miss Sofia?”
“Weren’t you asking for proof? I’ve brought him here now. Go ahead and question him
face-to-face lest you accuse us of throwing mud at you!” Sofia said before turning to fix
the stage operator, who was being held by the bodyguards, with a commanding stare. She
asked, “Who asked you to damage the stage? Spill it!”
The stage operator looked at her, then at the others around him—who all looked very
stern—in fear and panic.
At the sight of this, Sofia spoke again. “I can consider showing you mercy as long as you
point out who made you do it.”
When the stage operator heard this, his eyes flickered for a moment. Then, he pointed the
finger at Susan, saying, “It’s this woman who asked me to tamper with the stage. She
promised to give me a fortune and help me leave Vienna after it’s done.”
Susan gaped incredulously at the man who pointed at her. “That’s pure slander! I’ve never
approached you!” Realizing what had happened, she nearly jumped out of bed in anger,
glaring at the man with venomous eyes as if wanting to eat him alive. “I’m warning you—
committing slander will also get you a jail sentence!”
The man felt very guilty under her stare, but he gritted his teeth and brazened it out
nonetheless. “I’m not lying. It’s you who made me do it.”
Susan trembled all over with rage. “How dare you!”
At this moment, Sofia spoke as well. “Now that we’ve got witness testimony, I’m leaving
this to the police.”
“I object! This is a slander and a frame-up!” Susan was mad with anger. She protested,
“What witness testimony are you talking about? I think you’re getting a random guy to
make me a scapegoat in order to shield one of your own!” Most importantly, I mustn’t be
taken to the police station, or my identity will certainly be exposed!
