Revenge Of The Rogue Heiress

After the three crawled for a minute, Arthur mercifully let them stand up.

Steven clapped his hands and said, "This seems like a good exercise. My back feels much better now.

On the side, Hugo chimed in. "It does have some effect, but my hands feel a little sore."

Meanwhile, Finnegan began to doubt himself. "So, does that mean Evangeline is not sick?"

Everyone turned their gaze to Evangeline.

Evangeline scowled and said. "You guys are the ones who are sick. I'm perfectly fine!"

With that, she turned and walked back to the mansion.

Hugo trotted up with a simile and said, "Don't be angry. Arthur is just concerned about you, suspecting your mental state." you, since

He added, "By the way, I'm Hugo Snyder. I own an entertainment company. Since you've had a falling out with the Gallagher family, you probably won't stay in Edward's company, would you? If you're thinking of finding a new management company, consider mine. I won't deceive you're a friend of Arthur."

Evangeline replied indifferently. "Not interested. I'm not signing with you. Go away,"

Then she went upstairs.

Hugo was rendered speechless by her response.

Just then, Arthur walked up and grabbed Hugo by his collar. He pulled him back and warned, "Don't use your tricks on her. She's not someone you can mess with."

Hugo looked at Arthur in surprise. "Did you fall for Evangeline?”

Arthur lowered his gaze and said calmly, "No, she's just my business acr

Hugo looked contemptuous. "Don't be duplicitous here. You brought her home, yet say you're not interested in her? Why don't we see you bringing other women home?"

Steven chimed in, That's right. You even did as she said. Only someone in love would go crazy and make a scene together!"

Arthur retorted, "TEI say I was forced to do so, would you believe me?"

Everyone looked unconvinced.

Hugo said, "Who could force you to do anything You clearly did it willingly, savoring every moment!"

Steven said, "That's right. You don't look like you were forced to do so with your joyful expression.

Arthur was at a loss for words.

Hugo sighed and said with regret, Tve been staying up late every night these days to watch Evangeline's livestream. I was quite interested in her. but since you are, I'll stay back." Steven said,

1. d. “I admire Evangeline 100, as I've never seen such a unique woman. Unfortunately, you beat me to it...

When he heard that, Arthur cast a cold glance at them.

Hugo hurriedly said, "Don't look at us like that. We didn't know you and her were acquainted, so we were interested in her. That's pretty normal. But now, we've given up. You can't blame us," Steven blinked and said curiously. "Evangeline was quite cold to Arthur earlier. It seems he has to put more effort into winning her over.

He added, "What do you think? How I

long will it take for Anthur to succeed!"

After he pondered, Hugo said, "The longest time I took to pursue a girl was ten days. Based on Arthur's conditions, he could win over any woman in a week if he takes the initiative:

Arthur was handsome, had a good physique, and wi wealthy If he made a move, no woman could resist the temptation.

"With Arthur's condition, not just women, even men would agree if he makes a move on them." Finnegan said.

However, Steven begged to differ. "Evangeline is different from ordinary women. I think it might be slightly more challenging. It'll take at least two weeks to win her over."

"I don't think it's that simple. I guess it will take at least a month or more, Finnegan said.

Arthur unceremoniously knocked their heads one by one and wamed, "I just admire Evangeline. Dont make jokes about us. If you dare to spread rumors. I'll cut off your tongues" Hugo rubbed his head and laughed. "We're just kidding. Don't get worked up.

Arthur snorted coldly in response. "If Evangeline sees you joking, and she gets angry and bears you up, don't feel wronged."

Surprised by what they heard, they didn't dare to make jokes about Evangeline anymore,

Having watched her livestream for seven days, the intimidating scene of Evangeline beating the monkey was enough to send shivers down their spines

If Evangeline laid hands on them, it would be terrifying.

After a while, Evangeline changed into a different outfit and came down.

She wore black pants, a hoodie, and a har and covered her face with a maskThis belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

After he saw her outfit. Arthur asked. "Are you going out?"

Evangeline nodded. Yes, to take care of something"

Arthur asked. "What are you going to do Need me to accompany you?

Evangeline thought for a moment and said. Tai going to make a police repon. Can you lend me a car?"

Il drive you there. Arthur immediately stood up.

Evangeline declined his offer, "No need, just lend me a car.

"No. I don't like others driving my car? Arthur refused.

Evangeline was at a loss for words

Without a choice, she could only accept Arthur's goodwill and let him drive her to the police station

Curious, Steven, Hugo, and Finnegan followed to watch the drama unfold.

At the police station, Evangeline took out her ID card and handed it to the police. Then, she said, "I want to file a complaint against Meghan Gallagher for attempted murder and Samson Gallagher for shielding a criminal"

The police verified Evangeline's identity and began recording her statement.

The police had also watched the livestream of Evangeline's variety show. Hence, they knew Meghan and Samson confessed to having pushed Evangeline off the cliff in the livestream.

However, despite knowing, the proper procedures had to be followed

After completing the statement, the police applied for a summons.

Several

police officers were dispatched to the Gallagher residence to summon Meghan and Samson

Meanwhile, Evangeline waited at the police station.

After half an hour, Meghan and Samson were brought to the police station

Apart from them, George and Bethany also arrived,

O 10:31 AM ► [

As soon as George saw Evangeline, his expression turned extremely unpleasant.

He walked briskly toward Evangeline, raised his hand, and was ready to slap her. "You unfilial girl! Have you not done enough harm by ruining Meghan's reputation! Now, you even want to sue her, wanting to send her to prison. Why are you so malicious? III bear you to death, you ingrate!"

His hand was halfway through when it was firmly and forcefully grabbed.

Before he could see who stopped him, the police, who had reacted, restrained him.

Subsequently, handcuffs were placed on his hands.

One stern-faced officer exclaimed, "Causing a disturbance at the police station, this is contempt of the police!"

He added, "To prevent you from harming others, you'll wear these handcuffs until you leave!"

George was furious. His face turned livid with anger as he angrily stated, "I'm disciplining my daughter. This is a family matter. Even police have no right to interfere

The enraged police officer retorted, "Even if she's your daughter, you can't physically harm her. Regardless of her identity, she is an independent citizen, and her personal safety is protected by law. If you dare

to lay a hand on her, it's a crime. We have the right and duty to stop you and impose corresponding punishments!"

George was left breathless with anger but didn't argue further against the police's words.

He glared at Evangeline, only now noticing a tall and handsome man standing beside her.

It was the same man who had grabbed his wrist just now.

George knew him even if he turned into ashes.

He thought. Arthur Ferdinand!"

Over the years, Ferdinand Group had snatched many businesses from Gallagher Group, which led to their long-standing feud in the business world.

Moreover, with Evangeline recently selling her shares of Gallagher Group to Arthur, encounters between Arthur and George had increased since the former visited Gallagher Group often

However, each interaction between them ended unpleasantly.

George scolded angrily, "Evangeline, you ingratel You sold the foundation that three generations of the Gallagher family worked hard to build to our rivals. Now, you're even trying to harm your brother and sister. Are you satisfied only if the Gallagher family is completely ruined?

Evangeline chuckled and said, "The whole country's viewers know that Meghan and Samson harmed me first How can you say I'm trying

them!

harm

She added, "Im just defending my own interests. If the Gallagher family ends up in ruins, it's your own fault. You reap what you sow. I have nothing to do with it."

In fury, George shouted, "Aren't you fine and alive now!

Evangeline said, "Yes, I'm fine now, but it doesn't mean they didn't do wrong

George was enraged, Family members should be tolerant of each other. Even if Meghan made a mistake, you should be generous and tolerant of her. Give her a chance to turn over a new leafl

He continued, "If you insist on it, no one will dare to marry a narrow-minded woman like you who disregards the interests of her family. Be good and drop the charge against Meghan. We'll talk about it at home. As long as you withdraw the lawsuit, I will forgive what you have done before and let you return to the Gallagher residence

Evangeline mocked, "Are you

you getting senile? I left the Gallagher residence of my own free will. It's because I couldn't stand being associated with you people, I look down on you."

She added, "Now you're using the idea of returning to the Gallagher residence to tempt me? With your twisted logic, I guess I'll have to sue them relentlessly. Otherwise, if your already questionable mind thinks I have lingering feelings for you people and wants me back, that would be a disaster for me.

George's face contorted with rage. "You wicked girl! Back then, I shouldn't have allowed you to be born! I shouldn't have brought you back to the

Gallagher residence. A heartless and selfish person like you, who disregards family interests, deserves the hardships you're facing outsider

Evangeline casually scratched her ear and said, "You make it sound like I'm eagerly waiting to be taken back to the Gallagher residence. If it weren't for you begging me and promising compensation, how could you have tricked me into returning?"

After he heard that, George was too angry to speak.

He glared at Bethany. "What are you standing there for? You birthed this calamity. Won't you persuade her to drop the charges against Meghan?"

Bethany looked at Evangeline with mixed feelings.

She resented Meghan, but she didn't dare defy George's decision.

Moreover, Meghan was the daughter she had pampered for twenty years. Hence, she still had some affection for her.

Bethany slowly spoke. "Evangeline, Meghan did wrong by pushing you off the cliff, but she has realized her mistake. For my sake, can't you let it

it that moment, a policeman approached and said, "The interrogation with Samson has concluded. He admitted to the intentional murder by Meghan and confessed to his complicity. Hence, we are legally detaining him. On the other hand, Meghan is still being stubborn, but her rguments are inconsistent

The policeman added, "She previously admitted to intentional murder on camera, which will be used against her. We'll detain her for further questioning. Once we have the results, we will file a lawsuit in court, but it will take some time. You don't need to wait here. Please go home. We will inform you of any updates.

Upon hearing this, George was furious. His eyes were filled with anger. "That unlilial son, Samson, how dare he accuse Meghan of intentional murder?"

He continued, "Meghan was just frightened, in a confused state of mind, and accidentally pushed Evangeline off the clim It wasn't intentional. At most, it was negligence causing harm!"

Evangeline sneered, indifferent to their words, and stood up, leaving the police station without wasting her breath.
