Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 727

Elliot raised his head and looked at Yvonne curiously too.

Theo was the only one who wasn't interested. He continued eating with a small spoon obediently.

Theo had gained a lot of weight now compared to when he first returned to the Lancaster family. He had become chubby and fair like a doll in a painting, which was extremely cute.

Yvonne turned her phone over and showed it to Henry and Elliot. "It's Mandy."

Elliot curled his mouth. "What is she calling you for?"

Although Henry didn't speak, what he wanted to know was the same thing as Elliot.

Yvonne turned the phone back to her. "She's in the police station now and I'm the one who called the police. She's either calling me to let her go or just to scold me. As simple as that."

Elliot hissed with his eyes full of disgust. "Oh, how dare she ask you to let her go."

Yvonne smiled and didn't speak further. Then she answered the phone. "Hello?"

After that, she put on the speaker and put her phone o n the dining table so that everyone could hear it.

Soon, Mandy's voice came from the phone. Her voice was trembling as if she was afraid. "Mrs. Lancaster, I know I'm wrong. Please let me go. I don't want to stay i n the police station anymore. I want to get out of here."

It was cold in the police station. She didn’t like the place.

Yvonne looked at her nails.

She had removed the nail polish from her fingernails because she was pregnant and her nails were clean now, so she could see the crescent clearly.

Yvonne said lightly, "Miss Lovett, what’s the use of asking me? If you want to get out, you'll be out in a few more days."

A smile flashed in Henry's eyes, then he took a sip of the soup.

Elliot couldn’t hold his laugh.

He knew that Yvonne was deliberately teasing Mandy.

Mandy bit her lip. "Mrs. Lancaster, you’re the one who called the police. I can get out as long as you talk to the police and there’s no need to wait for a few more days. You..."

Yvonne interrupted her with a smile, "So you know I called the police."

Mandy's eyes widened slightly for a moment. "What d o you mean?"

Yvonne said with her eyes cold, "That means if I called the police, of course I want you in there, so why should I help you out?"

Mandy was stunned for a while and it took her a long time to react. Her voice was sharp. "Shannon, you're too much!"

Her shout made Henry and Elliot frown at the same time.

Yvonne remained calm, keeping her smile. "Too much? How did I go too far?"

Mandy held the phone tightly. "Did you not? I just posted two videos online. Do you need to call the police to arrest me? You're too narrow-minded!"

Her words amused Yvonne and her tears almost came out from laughing too much. "Just posted two videos online? Mandy Lovett, it seems like you don't think what you've done is wrong until now. You think it's just a trivial matter."

Mandy asked frankly, "Isn’t it?”

Yvonne squinted her eyes. "Of course not. You want to ruin my reputation, but have you ever thought about i t? If the victim wasn't me, but an ordinary person with no background and influence, do you think she can escape from that today?"

Mandy's mouth moved without speaking.

Yvonne pursed her lips and answered the question herself, "No, the public opinion and online violence would drive her to death. And you, Mandy Lovett, you won't feel that you're at fault. Instead, you'll think that the victim's stress endurance is too weak that she committed suicide when the pubic scolded her." 1

Mandy clenched the phone and subconsciously wanted to refute. "1..."

But not knowing why, she couldn't utter a word and even felt a little guilty.

It seemed that if things really developed like what Yvonne said, she might really think that way.

At that moment, Elliot and Henry realized that if the victim wasn't Yvonne but someone else, it might have costed a life.

Even Sue, who was at the side, thought of it and couldn't help taking a deep breath.

No wonder madam said that Mandy had no legal consciousness. She even said that Mandy was kind apart from the fact that she was immoral.
