Chapter 3: Threat
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The person was Caroline’s older brother, Aubrey. From Caroline’s memory, she knew that this burly man was like their father, Balor, who had been poisoned by Kelly. Other than having a brain full of mush, there were only things related to Kelly.
“Then may I ask, is this how your so-called friends from the Lambert family treat their daughter?” Caroline’s extremely oppressive gaze landed on Aubrey. In that instant, Aubrey felt as if he was being stared at by a wild beast, and his entire body started to tremble.
Aubrey was frozen in place and could no longer take a step forward. He immediately looked up at his sister, who he had not looked at for a long time. He didn’t understand why such an amazing aura would be revealed from this delicate body.
Caroline frowned slightly. Aubrey was not very smart, but his instincts were sharp. She immediately retracted her aura. She was so fast that it was as if everything was just an illusion. Kelly and Austin’s attention was on Aubrey just now, so they did not notice Caroline’s abnormality.
Caroline looked at Aubrey. “Big Brother,” she said, “did you forget that I can’t swim? And I’m afraid of water.”
The scene of Caroline drowning when she was young immediately appeared in Aubrey’s mind. She was a small, dough-like person, and her face was as white as a piece of paper. She was lying on the ground unconscious.
His heart ached a little, and his mother’s advice to take good care of his sister before she passed away rang clearly in his ears. A look of guilt appeared on his face. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Kelly, who saw that something was wrong, suddenly interrupted. “How could Big Brother not remember?”
Aubrey’s attention was immediately drawn to Kelly, who continued, “Big Brother was just too worried about me, so he didn’t think of it.”
Aubrey nodded his head vigorously. “Yes, I saw her fall down the stairs at that time. I was stunned for a moment and only remembered that I had to send her to the hospital.”
The scene of the two of them acting as if they were siblings and ‘I can only see you’. If the original owner of the body were to see it, she would probably be angry for a long time. However, Caroline only felt that it was an eyesore and disgusting.
“It doesn’t matter if Big Brother has forgotten, as long as those people who did it haven’t forgotten.” She took out the host’s phone and unlocked it. “I remember that there is a surveillance camera next to the pool. They were shouting so loudly, so the surveillance camera should have captured everything clearly.”
Caroline directly clicked into the security system of the Lambert’s house and pulled up the surveillance footage of that time period. She scrolled down the progress bar and saw the line “Didn’t you say she can’t swim? Hurry, hurry, hurry, press her down!” were clearly heard.
The ward fell silent.
Kelly sized Caroline up suspiciously. The gloominess that usually surrounded Caroline had disappeared. She became clean and calm, and even had a hint of inviolability. It was just like eight years ago when she first met Caroline. She was stunned and jealous.
Kelly’s heart ached. She was also a little suspicious. After hesitating for a moment, she could not stop Caroline.
“They know that the other party can’t swim, but they still pushed me into the water. According to the law, this constitutes a crime of premeditated murder.” Caroline downloaded and saved the surveillance footage and sent it to a private email. “Either call the police or apologize. They can choose what they want to do.”
“Do you really have to blow things up to this extent?” Austin could not accept Caroline’s dominance. “You were not like this before.”
Caroline raised her eyebrows. “I was like that before, so I was pushed into the water and almost lost my life.”
“You’re fine.” Austin frowned. “And you’ve also dragged them down.”
“Three years ago, the pet snake of your classmate from the dormitory next door accidentally crawled under your desk. You were shocked and ordered someone to beat the snake to death. You also ordered the school to expel the classmate.”
Caroline shrugged. “Austin, you think that you have been violated, so you can do whatever you want. My safety is being threatened, but you use the standards of a saint to ask me not to pursue this matter. Could this be the education of a gentleman in the Campbell family?”
“It’s not up to outsiders to criticize the education of the Campbell family.” The animal that Austin hated the most was snakes.
His dissatisfaction with Caroline increased even more. “The way you’ve become so arrogant and overbearing will only make me more suspicious of whether there’s a reason to continue our engagement.”
