Chapter 2 Enough Is Enough

• The gentle look on Freddy William ’s face changed when he heard what Alana Smith said. “Is it true?”
• Ellis Smith shook her head pitifully. “No, it isn’t. How can I do such a thing? Alana Smith, I know that you don’t like me, and I can tolerate that. But how can you frame such a vicious thing against me? Mr Freddy, I really didn’t do that...”
• Looking at her pitiful face, Freddy William felt a little sorry for Ellis Smith . He then turned to Alana Smith and said, “Alana Smith, you are already the precious daughter of the head of the Su family. No one can take that position from you. Why do you have to do this to Huixian?”
• Freddy William ’s words sounded so harsh in Alana Smith’s ears, and she also felt uneasy upon hearing him calling her half-sister only Huixian. When did they become so close?
• “Are you suspecting that I am deliberately framing her?” she asked, looking at Freddy William in disbelief.
• “It’s okay for you to be willful at times. But you have to know that there are things you can’t just joke about,” Freddy William said to Alana Smith. He then looked at Ellis Smith with pity in his eyes and added, “Huixian always puts up with you. But enough is enough.”
• Alana Smith stared at Freddy William ’s handsome face. Seeing his self-righteous look, she felt so ridiculous.
• She then asked in a sarcastic tone, “You believe her instead of me?”
• Freddy William turned his face sideways, his fists clenching in his pockets. He didn’t answer her question.
• “What is going on here? Why are you fighting again?” Albert Smith, Alana Smith’s father, and his wife, Grace Smith, rushed into the room together.
• Ellis Smith immediately threw herself into Grace Smith’s arms and cried aggrievedly, “Mom, I really didn’t drug Alana Smith. I also did not find someone to rape her. How could I do such a thing to her?”
• The expression on Grace Smith’s face slightly changed. “Alana Smith, there may be some sort of misunderstanding here, right?”
• “I’ve heard everything she said with my own ears. She even called someone to tell the bodyguards to come to my room. How can it be a misunderstanding?” Alana Smith said.
• Ellis Smith cried bitterly. “How can I do such a heartless thing and ruin your life? Doing such a thing will also ruin my own life. Do you think I am not afraid of being in jail?”
• Grace Smith’s voice was full of pain when she said, “Hubby, I believe that Huixian will never do such a thing. But since it seems that we can’t reconcile.
• Albert Smith waved his big hand and ordered, “Call the family doctor over to check what’s in the bird’s nest soup.”
• He knew that his two daughters had never gotten along. Alana Smith, the daughter of his first wife, was the spoiled one, while Ellis Smith , the daughter of his second wife, was more tolerant. Only with solid evidence could they solve this conflict.
• The family doctor soon arrived with professional tools and began examining the soup.
• “Huixian, give me your phone,” Albert Smith added.
• “Alana Smith knocked it to the ground! I haven’t touched it until now,” Ellis Smith cried pitifully.
• Albert Smith picked up the phone from the ground and opened the call log. It showed that a call had been made around ten minutes ago, and the time matched what Alana Smith had claimed.
• Alana Smith took a sideways glance at the call log. She wanted to see how Ellis Smith could deny it with this solid evidence.
• Albert Smith dialed the unknown number that the call had been made to. Soon, an automated voice said, “Please press 1 for balance inquiries, and press 2 for the payment...”
• Alana Smith’s pretty face darkened. How could this be? Just now, Ellis Smith had called someone right in front of her eyes and asked some bodyguards to come over to rape her, but she had snatched the phone away before Ellis Smith could finish her words. Therefore, it was impossible for the call log to have been tampered with.
• However, the call log clearly proved that the last call had been made to the telecommunications company.
• Everyone looked at Alana Smith with suspicion and disappointment.
• Ellis Smith cried bitterly, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
• Alana Smith clenched her fists tightly. How could it be? Something didn’t add up.
• Fortunately, the family doctor could be trusted, so she turned to him and asked, “Doctor Wen, what have you found?”
• “Miss Alana, there is nothing strange in the bird’s nest soup,” Doctor Wen replied softly.
• “But it tasted strange when I ate it. And Ellis Smith even admitted that she drugged it...” Back then, Ellis Smith had spoken in such a cold tone that the memory was clearly etched in Alana Smith’s mind.
• “There’s really nothing strange in it, Miss Alana,” Doctor Wen emphasized again.
• “Alana Smith, I told you, I’ve never wanted to hurt you.” Ellis Smith still looked aggrieved, immediately gaining sympathy from everyone who saw her.
• Freddy William also looked at her gently to comfort her.
• Compared with Alana Smith, who was poised and elegant even in this situation, Ellis Smith looked pitiful.
• Finally, an idea flashed through Alana Smith’s mind.
• She suddenly understood everything! From the beginning, there had been no drug in the soup. Ellis Smith had pretended to make that phone call. She had orchestrated the whole situation to trick Alana Smith into accusing her, so that when the truth was revealed, Alana Smith would be unable to defend herself, and would lose everyone’s trust.
