Chapter 11: Give Me A Break
Chapter 11: Give Me A Break
"You said you don't know what Hazel is talking out, right?" Ariel sneered, "How come you suddenly know about the content of that post so clearly?"
"Give me a break. That post was so popular, so it's natural everyone knows what happened!" Kyla glanced at them with a scornful look, "And I did show someone some respect because I did not disclose the name of that heroine!"
"Kyla, don't say I didn't give you a chance." Hazel took out the phone unsympathetically and said, "Maybe we should get the police to play with us."
"Oh, Hazel, do you think the police will care about that little thing of yours?" Kyla snorted.
"Kyla, the police are not as useless as you think." Hazel said coldly, "The number of hits of that post has exceeded 5,000. And with what you did to my dress, your post is subjective and malicious. You clearly knew the content was wrong and deliberately released it. I will sue your journalism major friend for libel action. Do you believe he will protect you when facing the jury?"
Kyla's face suddenly got very panicky. She said with a guilty conscience, "Stop, stop bluffing already!"
“You are really an idiot when it comes to law! I'm afraid that even a vampire won't suck your blood because they don't want to be infected by your inferior IQ-gene and become senseless!" Hazel sneered, "You think I'm bluffing? Do you think your boyfriend here will think I'm bluffing?"
Kyla looked at Derek and saw him nod at what Hazel said out of fear.
"O—Ok! Now you just go ahead and sue me! You took off your dress by yourself to seduce people. Why would you say I did something to your dress?" Kyla struggled, "I want to sue you for libel too! Let's see who is afraid!"
Hazel turned on a poker face. There was no reason to continue the conversation anymore.
She unlocked the phone screen and was about to call the police.
Before she dialed on the phone screen, a group of policemen came in from the classroom door.
The classroom had been silent since Hazel arrived, and now watching the police come in, no one dared to make a sound.
"Who is Kyla?" the police asked.
Everyone looked at Kyla, like watching a caged animal.
***
Hazel was a little startled.
Why did the police come before she called?
“Please come with us.” The police came to Kyla.
“By why?!” Kyla became anxious instantly.
She pointed at Hazel in a panic. “Do you believe her nonsense? It’s none of my business!”
“The reason why we came to look for you has nothing to do with this student.” The police continued after giving Hazel a look, “It was the Denmark Group who reported it. They found out you had ruined a $5,000 dress and made a fool of a woman in the audition. The security officer in charge gathered information by investigating the security footage and called the police. Please cooperate with our inquiry.”
Kyla’s face turned pale, and she slumped in her chair as if life was frightened out of her.
Hazel was a bit stunned.
She did not expect that the Denmark Group would investigate the incident and call the police before she did.
Kyla was taken away by the police. From Hazel’s arrival to Kyla’s departure, there were pictures constantly being taken.
It was a dramatic scene for bystanders, and the ending could be called a stroke of genius. No one had expected that Kyla would end up being taken away by the police.
The story was quickly posted to the school forum, and the previous post was instantly reversed.
After all, the Denmark Group called the police and found out that Kyla had been deceitful and destructively played, which was better than any way she had to dispel rumors.
Hazel was still in a trance as she walked out of the classroom.
She had thought that even if she really punished Kyla this time, others would very likely believe the rumors instead of denying them. But it turned out for the best… was it actually solved so easily?
“Haha, Hazel, look, you’ve got a lot of fans all of a sudden!” Pointing to a post on her mobile phone, Ariel said. “Everyone praises you for being stunning like a queen when you were mad at Kyla.”
“Haha.” Hazel smiled unconsciously. If she hadn’t been pushed, she wouldn’t have known she could be so talkative.
“But it’s really thanks to my Prince Charming this time!” Ariel put away her phone and said. “It would have been complicated if he hadn’t called the police.”
Hazel agreed, but she was a little uncomfortable with Joshua Denmark's name because she always remembered that “fake Joshua Denmark.”
“This should have nothing to do with him?” Hazel said. “Maybe the people in his company are rather responsible?”
“Hazel!” Ariel was instantly angry. “Be grateful! Even though it’s my Prince’s staff, it is also because he has trained them well!”
“Well, well, it’s my fault,” Hazel laughed and said.
Her greatest fear had been resolved, so she was naturally in a good mood and wouldn’t argue with Ariel. Besides, she really appreciated Joshua Denmark’s help.
No sooner had they left the building than a man in a business suit stood in front of them.
“Miss Hazel Crowe.” The man said respectfully. “I’m Larry Joseph, the person in charge of the preliminary selection for surrogate mother in Denmark Group. I’m sorry you were frightened by the dress incident, but our president wants to meet with you to apologize.”
Hazel was stunned.
Joshua Denmark wanted to meet her? What was happening?!
He actually wanted to personally apologize to her because of a dress incident. Why did she feel he… was too nice?
“You, you, you…” Ariel was completely shocked, holding Hazel’s arm tightly. “Is the president you’re mentioning Joshua Denmark?”
“Yes,” Larry said politely.
“Can I, can I follow her?” Ariel asked excitedly.
“I’m afraid not.” He said with regret. “The president will meet Miss Crowe alone.”
Hazel came to her senses.
She and Ariel had seen this person in charge on the day of the preliminary selection, so he wasn’t a fraud. But... she really did not care to meet Joshua Denmark.
