Chasing The Fierce Heiress

With the paternity test report in her hands, Hazel was going to tell Joshua. Vanessa looked at Hazel, her face flashing a triumphant smile.

Noticing that Hazel was going to leave, Vanessa had a panic-stricken expression. She hurried to take the paternity test report away from Hazel. “Give it back to me! This is the surprise I want to give Joshua!”

Vanessa’s panic made Hazel more skeptical. She asked with doubt, “I don’t think you want Joshua to see that, do you? If it is true, isn’t it the same whoever shows it to him?”

“Give it back to me!” Vanessa shouted angrily.

She quickly grabbed the report.

Hazel furrowed her eyebrows slightly. The angrier Vanessa was, the more Hazel thought there was something wrong with the report. Realizing that Vanessa would do anything to get the report back, Hazel held it firmly in her hand and said, “Vanessa, why do I have a feeling that you are scared?”

“I am not! Ah!” Suddenly Vanessa let go of the report, and she staggered back two steps, she then fell into the lake behind her with a splash.

“Help! Help!” Vanessa cried, struggling in the lake.

“Help! Someone has fallen into the water!” Suddenly, someone stood at the door of the hall and shouted.

Suddenly, many of the guests came out of the hall and walked towards the lake. The garden lights turned on, and the garden was suddenly as bright as day. Several people rushed past Hazel, plunging into the lake and swimming in Vanessa’s direction.

As they swam to reach Vanessa, Hazel had an uneasy feeling in the pit of her stomach. She sensed that Vanessa had fallen into the water on purpose. Did Vanessa intend to frame her in this way?

Vanessa was quickly saved, but she lay on the ground by the lake, apparently unconscious.

Several people surrounded them, muttering blankly, “What happened?”

“Please make way.” Suddenly, a gloomy voice came, and the crowd quickly cleared a pathway.

Sam walked through the crowd. He looked at Vanessa, who was sitting shivering by the lake, and Hazel. Then he immediately asked a servant to make an emergency call, he looked as if he were the owner of Anderson Residence. After that, he asked, with a gloomy expression, “What happened?”

“I saw it happen!” A man suddenly came out from the crowd. Then he pointed to Hazel and raised his voice. “I just went for a walk in the garden and saw the two of them arguing. The young lady then shoved her into the lake.”

“How could she shove a lady into a lake on such a cold day even if there is a fight?”

“Yes, this woman looks beautiful. But why is she so wicked?”

“Miss Crowe, what’s your grudge against Miss Young?” Sam frowned with a scolding voice.

Hazel pressed her lips tightly. “I didn’t! I did not push her, she jumped in herself!”

No one would believe her no matter what she said to defend herself, but she had to try, she would definitely be regarded as guilty.

The whispers grew louder, and apparently, they didn’t believe her words at all.

“Miss Crowe, don’t you think what you said is ridiculous?” Sam said discontentedly, “Both of you are guests of the Anderson family. If you have any misunderstanding, please let me know. I can mediate for both of you.”

“I…” Hazel suddenly felt very cold.

He didn’t mean well at all. He was clearly trying to make things worse in front of so many people.

“I just saw that they were fighting over something,” said the “witness”, who suddenly took the report away from Hazel’s hand.

After opening it, he said after casting a glance, “Paternity test report? Is Miss Young, who has fallen into the water, pregnant? And the baby belongs to Joshua! I see. This woman must have known that Miss Young is pregnant with Mr. Denmark’s baby, so she shoved Vanessa into the lake intentionally to make her have a miscarriage, right?”

“I just wonder why she seems so familiar. Isn’t she the companion of Mr. Denmark?”

“Yeah, didn’t she just have an affair with him?”

“What a wicked woman she is! How could she deserve Mr. Joshua?”

***

Everyone started to accuse Hazel, and various kinds of charges left her speechless.

Everyone turned away from Hazel when Vanessa, who had supposedly been unconscious, started coughing and woke up.

It was very coincidental that she woke up at that moment, she immediately put her hands on her stomach and cried out with a mournful expression, “My baby, my baby… Hazel, how could you be so vicious? Did I lose my baby? Help me…”

A crowd of onlookers shouted, “Ambulance, call an ambulance!”

“Call the police! By the way, call the police! The wicked woman must not be allowed to get away with it!”

Hazel felt cold, and then she realized what a perfect trap she had fallen into. The paternity test report wasn’t the point, Vanessa had planned to fight with her and deliberately fall into the water.

Furthermore, Sam must have been Vanessa’s accomplice. Otherwise, he would not be accusing Hazel, and it was very likely, Vanessa had arranged the “witness,” and he had known the contents of the report before he even read it.

In the eyes of others, it could be said that the evidence was conclusive. That was — Hazel was jealous and deliberately shoved Vanessa into the water to make her miscarry.

With the evidence and Vanessa’s excellent acting, Hazel didn’t have a chance to defend herself at all.

She was desperate. It all happened so fast that it was like it had been rehearsed countless times without giving her any chance to defend herself.

“What’s wrong?” A deep, familiar voice came in, and Hazel felt happy instantly and then extremely wronged.

Everyone made way for him as Joshua walked through the crowd. He was slightly stunned to see Hazel standing by the lake.

“What’s the matter?” He strode over to her.

“I…” she tried to speak but was interrupted by Vanessa’s pitiful and miserable cry.

“Joshua, our baby… Oh, my stomach hurts so much. We may have lost our baby…” Still putting hands on her stomach, Vanessa cried sadly.

“Baby?” Joshua looked at her sarcastically as if he had heard a big joke.

“Mr. Denmark, Miss Young is really pregnant with your baby!” The “witness” went up again and handed the paternity test report to him. “I saw Miss Young give it to Miss Crowe, who then angrily shoved Vanessa towards the water!”

“Joshua, I didn’t. You must believe me!” Hazel said nervously.

It didn’t matter even if the world didn’t believe her, as long as he believed her.
