Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 78

What a twist!

Elaine stared at the computer screen, dumbfounded.

"Elaine, you haven't changed one bit. All you know is to bring trouble for the others." Janet sneered.

"I didn't... No... It's..." Elaine panicked. She finally understood why Janet was stubborn about not agreeing to the compensation but insisted on calling the police.

If no one had called the police, Elaine could have gotten away with the problem by paying the price to the shop manager even if they found out she had flicked the wallet.

However, the arrival of the police worsened the situation. They just couldn't solve the problem in private anymore.

Christopher shook his head in disappointment. He didn't expect Elaine to be shameless enough to do such a cheap thing. "Elaine, was it you who did that?"

The unmistakable evidence proved Elaine was the culprit.

Elaine couldn't get away with the crime no matter how hard she tried. She lowered her head in shame, for she couldn't come up with an excuse. "I... I didn't do it on purpose," she tried explaining.

However, Janet knew she was lying. Elaine was bluffing now to escape from the problem.

Janet looked away from Elaine. After all, the woman was a hopeless liar.

The police quickly stopped Elaine. "You are suspected of theft and false accusation. Come with us, please."

Elaine stepped back and tried defending herself. "No, I won't come with you. I can compensate by paying ten times the price of the wallet. Please don't take me away."
