Unexpected Fiancée novel Chapter 80

Chapter 80: The Sweet Deception

The police car raced to the scene.

In no time, it arrived at the lake's shore.

As two police officers stepped out of the car, Melissa hurried over to them, pointing at Jane and accusing, "That's the culprit, Jane North! She's the one who pushed Monica into the lake!"

The older officer, Bray, turned to his colleague. "Let's take a look, Lisa."

"Alright, Bray," the policewoman nodded.

Bray surveyed the scene, eyes falling on Jane, who was diligently performing CPR beside the unconscious Monica.

"What happened?" Bray asked the group.

Osborn began, "She fell into the lake, and-"

Melissa interjected aggressively, "No, she didn't fall by herself! Jane pushed her. I saw it with my own eyes. My classmate is also a witness."

She gave Merlin a subtle signal, and he chimed in, "Yes, I saw it too. Jane pushed Monica into the lake."

The officers exchanged knowing glances.

Bray inquired calmly, "Is that so?"

"Of course not!" Osborn furrowed his brow.

"You have no business testifying, Osborn. You arrived after Monica was already in the water. You didn't witness the events leading up to it. Why are you so shamelessly lying for Jane?" Melissa accused him.

Osborn retorted, pointing at Jane, "Jane is trying to resuscitate Monica. Why would she do that if she pushed Monica into the lake?"

Melissa sneered, "Isn't it obvious? Jane is just pretending. Monica drowned long ago. She's dead, but Jane is acting concerned to avoid arrest!"

Jane suddenly shouted, "Shut your mouth, Melissa! Monica is not dead. She can still be resuscitated!"

She continued performing CPR, and Monica vomited water, surprising Melissa.

Was Monica alive? Melissa realized it didn't matter. Monica would ensure Jane faced the consequences. Either way, Jane's fate was sealed.

An ambulance arrived, and a doctor hurried over. "Officers, how's the situation now?" the doctor asked, concerned.

Bray explained, "This woman fell into the water."
