Substitute Her to Love You novel Chapter 116

Back then, Caroline framed me, saying that I pushed her down the mountain. At that time, Stanley came to me and said that I needed to help her make some changes to somewhere in her wedding room.

After I went there, I met Caroline.

Later, Caroline disappeared. And Stanley didn't testify for me. So I didn't have anyone to prove my innocence...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

The policeman didn't seem to notice my abnormality. He nodded and said, "Then you should call them. It's better for them to explain face to face."

"Okay."

As I said, I took out my cell phone.

But just as I was about to dial, my hands shook. "Bang!" My cell phone fell to the ground.

I didn't notice that when I recalled what had happened a few years ago, my palms were sweating.

I quickly wiped my palms with my clothes

and lowered my head to pick up my cell phone.

The police asked me, "What's wrong?"

The police asked me.

"I'm fine." I shook my head. Then I got the phone number of Ralph and Serena from the phonebook.

After staring at my cell phone for a while, I finally decided to call Ralph.

I pressed the dial button.

The standby tone started to ring over the phone.

At this time, my heart was pounding. I was afraid that something might go wrong again.

I waited over the phone for a minute. But no one answered my call.

I was a little flustered instantly.

Then I called Serena again.

It was still the same. No one answered my call!

I said excitedly, "I, I, I..." I was in a panic in my heart, "They indeed picked me up and drove me to the western restaurant. And they came to pick me up in the residential quarter. Surveillance video is available in my residential quarter. You surely can get something based on the videos!"

The police, who acted like he was getting business done previously, looked at me with some doubts in his eyes.

I knew that the more I acted like this, the more suspicious I would be.

Even so, it was unknown wht I couldn't control myself at all.

I even began to predict the worst ending in my heart, guessing whether I had been set up by Caroline again.

The policeman looked at me and finally said, "Anyway, since you can't get in touch with them, you can go to the police station with us first."

"No!"

I shouted out loud!

I didn't want to go to the police station!

I was afraid that I couldn't get out if I went there.

The police said, "It's not up to you. Based on your current mood, we can detain you on valid grounds!"

Indeed, right now, while making a phone call, I was already in such a panic.

If I weren't a suspect, the outsiders probably wouldn't believe it.

The colleagues who were watching the fun around me were still there. They were whispering as if they were sure that I had done something illegal.

When I was desperate...

"I can follow behind you as if I were a shadow chasing after the light in a daze..."

The ringtone of my cell phone rang!

I lowered my head and saw that the caller ID on it was Serena Harper!

It was as if I had got a life-saving straw. I hurried up and answered the call.

"Sorry, Designer Charlotte, my husband and I were selecting materials just now. So we didn't notice that you were calling us."

As soon as the phone was connected, Serena immediately apologized to me.

At that time, I was so excited that I felt that my heart was about to melt. And I said, "It's okay." Then I began to tell her about the police's request.

Hearing this, Serena agreed without saying anything else.

In less than 40 minutes, she and Ralph arrived in a car.

After getting out of the car, the two of them were very cooperative, explaining the situation back then to the police.
