YM778.TV Chapter 23: 23 - Emilia really needs a spanking.
"What?!" Amelia, who had been standing still while the officer analyzed Edward\'s blood samples, suddenly felt taken aback after hearing about how he had ingested Benzene, which was banned and could be considered illegal due to its highly toxic and poisonous effects on the human body.
\'How is this possible?\', Even more bewildering to her was the fact that Edward had mentioned being immune to poisons when he caught her stepmother in the act of food poisoning.
It was also the day when her father introduced him as her bodyguard, just two weeks ago.
At that time, even after eating the poisonous food, he was perfectly fine, while the servant who also ate it was hospitalized.
This incident led Amelia to have confidence in his immunity, which made the situation even more perplexing since it seemed impossible to poison him.
"Ooh, should we strip you down now?" Damien\'s hand lay casually over his mouth as he let out a mischievous snicker, aimed directly at the police woman who was completely absorbed in reading the report. Her eyes appeared to quiver with disbelief as they took in the shocking details.
"What?" Lin Wanruo asked again, as she couldn\'t hear clearly due to her focus on the report, prompting her to lift her gaze towards the man.
"I mean, I need a proper explanation for your actions, Miss Tin" Damien released his hand and signaled for a thorough clarification by opening both hands towards the woman who had aimed a gun at a well-regarded and presumed innocent man like himself.
"I-i..." Hearing his words, Wanruo flinched before biting her lip and turned her eyes towards the report. She felt struggling due to the situation she was in without any proof or clear evidence that he was at fault.
"Ma\'am, all the guests have been evacuated safely, but it appears that Mr. Harrison will need to be admitted." After receiving the information on his walkie-talkie, the police officer informed the woman, giving her some time to collect her thoughts before changing the topic.
"Oh, how many bullet wounds did he have?" Lin Wanruo asked, trying to find a way to escape her current situation and shifting the conversation away from the unnecessary details. Despite her job being simply to rescue individuals without doing proper investigations due to the involvement of high-society members.
"Madam, Mr. Harrison has knife wounds, specifically cuts on tendons that appear to have been caused by a karambit knife," the police officer stated as he relayed the information through the walkie-talkie to inquire further about the wounds.
"What? A karambit knife?" After feeling a bit confused, Lin Wanruo considered the possibility that someone might have taken advantage of the situation by harming Mr. Harrison when Blake, armed with a gun, forcibly entered the hotel.
\'Was it him...no\', Lin Wanruo lifted her gaze to look at Damien, noticing his icy expression that seemed to convey displeasure at her failed attempt to aim a gun at him. Fearful of the consequences, she quickly abandoned the idea, not wanting to fall into her own dangerous game once again.
\'Huh? A knife?\', Emilia stood, still feeling a pain in her chest, and observed everything while analyzing the situation. Her mind could clearly see that the police woman had prejudice against Damien based on her actions of pointing a gun at someone like him.
Naturally, no one had the guts, not even the commissioner of police himself, to do something against the heir of the Raphael group.
Not that Emilia cared, given the fact that a curve formed on her lips as she remembered all the humiliations she had endured until now. Her eyes filled with anger as she turned towards the man standing with a mocking gaze at the policewoman, who appeared oblivious to this. \'I told you, I will kill you, Damien Raphael.\'
Determining herself to escape the present situation or get some rest from that man, Emilia\'s feet lifted as she approached the policewoman, her hand clenching her dress with fingers taking out and gripping a knife that Damien had given her on their way there.
"Here", Emilia smirked as she glanced at Damien while offering the knife to Lin Wanruo. Lin Wanruo\'s widened eyes observed the woman in a bridal dress who kept looking towards the man.
\'....\' Damien, upon seeing how Emilia had just snitched on him with that expression on her face, had his face lose all expressions and blankly looked at her.
\'Now, you are getting what you deserve\', Seeing Damien\'s face turn pale, Emilia\'s smile bloomed even more, feeling amused that the facade which had teased her for so long was now crumbling.
"Sigh" Damien sighed, causing Emilia to smirk before turning her gaze towards Lin Wanruo to reveal that the source of this knife was none other than the man beside her. But before she could speak, Damien cried out, with a disheartened voice, "How could you do this, Emilia!"
\'Heh, now crying aren\'t you?\', Emilia simply wanted to laugh at the man who had given her such clear evidence, unwittingly providing her with a weapon for the crime.
So now, she will seek her revenge little by little.
"Damien, you deserv—" Emilia shook her head in resignation, a smile playing on her lips as she attempted to hold up a mirror for the man. However, she was cut off by Damien\'s sorrowful cry.
"How could you harm Mr. Harrison! How could you do this, Emilia!"
"Huh?" As Emilia flinched, she felt the icy touch of the steel handcuffs on her wrists, her eyes staring ahead blankly as tears welled up slowly. Despite trying to turn her head towards the man, she was only able to take a peek through her turned pupil.
"Please don\'t arrest my wife, I am sure she would have an explanation." Damien pretended to be sad as he wiped away a non-existent tear, then flashed a big smile behind his hand, only showing it to Emilia who was next to him. His raised eyebrow mockingly questioned her, further adding to clarify her situation,"Dear, I hope you have a proper explanation as there are your fingerprints on the knife."
