However, Daniel suddenly said coldly, “Let’s talk right here.”
Naya had just started walking when she suddenly stopped again. She could clearly sense the displeasure in Daniel’s tone, but she still tried to maintain her image.
“Dan.”
“Stop causing trouble for Ava in the future. If you’re dissatisfied, come look for me instead,” Daniel spoke very decisively. He said this sentence in a particularly domineering tone.
Naya could not believe that Daniel, who had always been gentle and elegant, would say such words in a tone like this.
She stared blankly at the man who was evidently angry and treating her coldly. Then, she felt a strong sense of envy, jealousy, and hatred in her heart.
Furthermore, Daniel had made his words very clear. He had watched the live broadcast and knew what had happened. He knew that she had just pretended to commit suicide to win his sympathy and try to get him to marry her.
Naya knew that she would only humiliate herself if she continued to pester him and put on an act to explain herself. Not only would she not get Daniel’s understanding, but she would also b e laughed at by the people around her. Hence, Naya chose to leave this place first.
However, when she walked past Daniel, Naya did not forget to show a sad expression and whisper to him, “Dan, we have a relationship of more than 20 years. I didn’t expect you to not believe me. Ava is not as innocent as you think she is. You have no idea how scheming she is.”
After saving this sentence, Naya quickly walked toward the entrance. She could not stay for another second.
Naya’s mother followed closely, but she did not forget to quibble with Daniel. “Dan, you must trust Naya. You two are childhood sweethearts. Don’t trust Ava. That vixen will do anything for her own benefit!”
Naya’s mother’s words were even more unpleasant to Daniel’s ears, and at the same time, he felt a little tingling in his head. It was unknown whether it was from the clot in his brain that had not dissipated.
When Naya got home, the first thing she did was call the police.
She wanted to report Ava for installing a camera in her ward to film her, but she did not expect the police to tell her that Ava had voluntarily surrendered herself.
Naya hung up the phone angrily, knowing that she had fallen right into Ava’s trap.
When Ava came to the ward to look for her that day, she thought that if she filmed that video, everyone would think that Ava was bullying her.
Yes, what happened back then was exactly according to her plan, but she never expected that Ava also came prepared.
However, she only thought that Ava would carry a voice recorder on her. She never expected Ava to use that opportunity to place a mini camera on the window sill.
Now that she thought about it, maybe she had given a chance for Ava to place the camera when she pretended that Ava pushed her on the floor. At that moment, her eyes were only on Daniel.
How could Naya be reconciled to admitting that she had failed now that things were at this stage? She took a deep breath and mustered the courage to log in to her account on social media.
Sure enough, the comments were filled with netizens hurling abuse at her.
Naya then saw the complete video of Ava’s live broadcast on the trending searches. She clicked in and saw how arrogant and complacent she was. Plus, she could clearly hear the conversation between her and her mother.
Smack!
Naya angrily threw the tablet to the floor.
“Ava, you just have to make everyone the loser in this situation, huh? if I can’t get the upper hand back in this situation, I’ll make your life a living hell! I’ll just take you down with me!”
Naya said ruthlessly. She could not imagine what she would face when her image was completely shattered.
Early the next morning, Naya hurried to the police station. When she arrived, Ava was leaving.
As soon as she saw Ava, Naya stepped forward and accused, “Officer, it’s her. She installed a camera in my ward and violated my privacy! It’s against the law!”
Seeing Naya so emotional, the officer kindly advised her, “Miss Mendez, please calm down. Miss Long has already explained the ins and outs of the matter to us. Although Miss Long’s actions were inappropriate, your actions, Miss Mendez, seem to be more controversial.”
Naya’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“What are you saying?”
Ava, who was at one side, smiled lightly. “The meaning is very simple. The dispute between you and me has not yet reached the stage where legal actions are required.”
“What? You filming me in secret doesn’t count?”
“I wasn’t filming you in secret. I was just using a more inappropriate way to prove my innocence.”
“On the other hand, Naya, you pretended to commit suicide to win sympathy so that you could get Dan to marry you. Plus, you even exaggerated the entire thing to incite the netizens to cyberbully me. If I want to pursue this, you and your good mother might receive a lawyer letter soon.”
“Ava, you…” Naya was fuming. “If that’s the case, why are you at the police station? Didn’t you come here to surrender yourself?”
“I think you’ve made a mistake. I came here as a victim and am here to make a report,” Ava answered calmly.
Naya’s gaze changed. “Make a report? What report?”
“I don’t think I need to tell you about that.” Ava curled the corners of her attractive lips. When she was about to say something, her phone rang.
When she saw who it was, Ava smiled and answered the call. Then, she called out sweetly,“ Danny.”
“Dan?” Naya was seething.
When Ava turned around and left, Naya asked the officer next to her.
“Officer, may I know what report Ava made?”
“The computer in Ava’s office was tampered with by someone. Last night, someone even threw an object from above with the intention to hurt her. In addition, she’s being stalked.”
After the officer said that, he looked at Naya sharply.
“Miss Mendez, since you’re here, we hope that we can get your help in the investigation.”
“Help you in the investigation? What can I help with?” Naya asked innocently, but she was starting to feel guilty.
“We’ve looked into it, and recently, you’re the only one who’s at odds with Miss Long. So, you’re one of the people we have to look into now, Miss Mendez.”
Naya was dumbfounded. She was a suspect now?
Although she had indeed paid someone to do those things, she just needed to scare Ava.
However, Ava did not seem to be frightened at all. Otherwise, how could she so calmly make a report?
“Miss Mendez, please come with me. We have something to ask you.” The police officer made a gesture of invitation.
Naya suppressed the anxiety in her heart and smiled indifferently. “If you want to investigate, just investigate. I would never do anything that breaks the law. However, if you find that this has nothing to do with me after your investigation, I want you to apologize to me.”
“Miss Mendez, citizens are obliged to cooperate with the police in this type of investigation. W e rely on evidence when handling cases. So, you can rest assured that there’ll be no unjust cases.”
“…” Although Naya was very dissatisfied, she could not say anything else.
After arriving at the interrogation room, Naya kept emphasizing that she had been in the hospital this entire time. She had not gone anywhere nor contacted anyone.
She also generously handed her mobile phone to the police. Of course, the reason why she was so proactive was that she had already cleaned up all the traces that would cause suspicion.
Naya seemed to be very cooperative in answering the police’s questions, but she knew best that she, Naya Mendez, was the mastermind.
After answering a series of questions, Naya breathed a sigh of relief. She saw that the police did not suspect anything. However, she was still mad that Ava filmed her like that and almost ruined her reputation.
Before leaving, Naya reluctantly asked again, “Officer, doesn’t Ava need to take any responsibility for breaching my privacy like that?”
“Under normal circumstances, she would have to take responsibility. However, she did it because you framed her first. Hence, she had reasonable reasons for her actions. It’s not entirely impossible for you to sue here, but her case against yours will be very strong if you two do go to court.”
After hearing this, Naya’s heart was burning with rage. ‘Doesn’t this mean that Ava is innocent?’
Naya turned around and walked to the entrance in a rage. Knowing that Daniel had called Ava just now, she figured that Ava was most likely with Daniel now.
After getting in the car, Naya took out another phone from the glove box and dialed a number.
After the other party picked up, Naya asked directly, “Where’s Ava now? Send her location to m e at once.”
After the other party heard Naya’s order, he hesitated and could not give Naya an answer.
Naya immediately blew up. “I gave you money to keep an eye on her all the time. You’ve taken my money but you aren’t doing anything?”
“Miss Mendez, it’s not that I’m not doing anything. There are a lot of reporters around Ava now, so I can’t follow her too closely,” the other party explained.
Naya gritted her teeth, threw her phone away, and slammed on the accelerator. Ava had already met Daniel at this time. The place where the two of them met was the florist where they failed to meet the last time.
After Ava arrived, she saw Daniel’s tall and lean body standing in front of the shop. Under the bright sunshine, his warm eyes looked abnormally handsome and refreshing.
As soon as Daniel saw Ava, he handed a freshly wrapped bunch of pink tulips to her.
Ava did not falter at all. She smiled and held the flowers in her hands.
They were lovers, so it was normal for him to buy her flowers.
“A lot of things have happened these days and caused you trouble. I’m really sorry that all these things happened because of me,” Daniel gently raised his sharp eyebrows and apologized.
Ava shook her head. “All of those things have nothing to do with you. Don’t blame yourself for what happened.”
She did not have any complaints against him. On the contrary, Ava was very happy because Daniel had never doubted her from the beginning to the end.
