It was proven that the relationships between humans had to be built on trust.
Once the trust had been lost, unusual signs which hinted at the possibility of a conspiracy could be found from the very beginning. It was just that those signs had been disregarded in the past.
For instance, Monique had come out of nowhere.
It had been incredibly strange for Naomi to run into her on the street and also at the next door of Nelson's house.
Was there really such a perfect coincidence in the world?
Other than that, Nelson, who had disappeared for so many years, had suddenly turned up and inserted himself into her life. What was more, soon after he had reappeared, he had stolen her heart away that easily.
Moreover, she had not held the slightest bit of hesitation in doing so.
"Nelson, you actually approached me with ulterior motives, didn't you?"
In that instant, she had become so rational that she seemed to have seen through everything clearly in an instant.
Nelson was astonished as he quickly replied, "Naomi, let's not talk about this anymore, okay? Calm down first, and then we'll talk when we get back."
"I'm really calm right now!"
She was really composed with an inscrutable expression. She looked unruffled, and that trace of desire and love for him in her eyes had gone out of the window too.
She just stood there and stared at him quietly.
However, that was enough to dismay him.
Seeing that he was staying quiet, Naomi smiled sardonically.
"Anyway, with all this evidence, everything is as clear as day now. It doesn't matter anymore whether you explain everything or not. Nelson, I hereby announce that our engagement is cancelled."
After that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Nelson wanted to chase after her, but Sugar Bun blocked his path.
"Nelson, don't you dare go near Naomi anymore. I don't want to hurt you."
Eudora couldn't believe the truth either as she looked at Naomi with pity in her eyes.
Like Naomi, she had also reckoned that Nelson was a good man.
In reality, he was indeed a cultured and sophisticated man. However, they hadn't expected that the truth would be so unbearable. It broke Eudora's heart to see Naomi experiencing such an misfortune
Therefore she spoke coldly to Nelson, "If you're the one who did all those things that Emma said, then you don't deserve to be here."
Amos even instructed Clint to call the police directly.
He thought that he had been a good judge of character. To his consternation, he had been deceived by a young man.
He had been so close to allowing Nelson to marry the apple of his eye.
Clint was about to call the police when Naomi stopped him all of a sudden.
"Uncle Clint, please let me do this."
Clint gazed at her open-mouthed. As a matter of fact, he was not the only one who was confused, but Eudora, Amos, and Sugar Bun were too.
"Naomi..."
Eudora called out to her in a low voice.
Naomi apologized to her parents, "Mom, Dad, I'm sorry. I'm not a good daughter. I've caused both of you and the company to suffer because of my own personal desires. Now, please allow me to bring this calamity to an end."
After that, she took her cell phone out in front of Nelson and composedly dialed the police.
At the same time, Nelson was looking at her blankly.
He didn't shift his gaze away from her as her fingers moved across the screen of her mobile phone to dial the number. At that moment, every second felt like hours to him.
She got through and said to the officer on the other end apathetically.
"Hello, I would like to report a case."
Hearing her words, Nelson let out a bitter smile. He was truly hurt to the core.
"Ah..."
He involuntarily took a step back and covered his chest with his hand.
