A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 446 Not to Call the Police

"If the school doesn't give Emily a student grant, I will sponsor her until she completes her education.

But Mr. Liu, you should give us a good explanation about where Emily's student grant is. I think the

school has already offered her the grant, " Linda confronted Jerome Liu.

"Ms. Xia, mind your words. Don't try to slander me without any proof, " Jerome snapped in a

threatening voice with his face darkened.

"I am slandering you without any proof? So you don't want to admit what you have done? How about

we go talk to the superiors of the school and ask about it?" said Linda calmly.

"Ms. Xia, I am warning you again. That's slander! I reserve my right to pursue legal actions. Emily

Wang, tell everyone how I have treated you. You couldn't get your grant because you are not working

hard enough and you have low scores in examinations. You should blame yourself, "

Jerome shifted his attention to Emily and caught her hand.

"Stop it! What are you doing? Don't touch her!" Linda scolded Jerome and slapped his hand. She tried

to keep him away from Emily, who was frightened and had shrunken herself to a corner of the room.

"Ms. Xia, I've never done anything against you. Why are you picking on me like this?" Jerome shook

his head helplessly.

"Like what? What I done? I just want the truth. Why won't you admit to the crime that you have

committed? As a teacher, don't you at least have a tiny bit of guilt and sympathy to your student and

her family?" Linda said in a righteous manner.

"I didn't do anything. Stop slandering me!" Jerome shook his head and stood in denial.

"Mr. Liu, I think a person like you is really wasting our country's resources, " Anna next to them

suddenly spoke out a remark in disdain, which irritated Jerome. Jerome didn't know who this woman

was. He only knew that she always followed Linda everywhere she went and was always by her side.

But she didn't actually hold a position in the school.

Linda let out a cold hum of agreement. She despised him even more as she looked at his dishonest

face.

"I don't want to waste one more second with you here. If you refuse to admit it, let's go to the police

station. Please explain yourself to the police. Anna, call the police now."

As soon as Linda finished her words, Emily's aunt screamed. Her high-pitched voice pierced into Linda

ears, making her frown. Emily's aunt said, "What? Call the police? It's nothing serious. Why do you

have to call the police for such a small case? If she doesn't have a chance to study anymore, then she

should just quit it. It would be good for her to come back home and help with the housework."

Linda really got furious as she heard Emily's aunt talk. She snapped, "If I don't call the police, how can I

have this man arrested? How can I seek justice for Emily? Tell me."

'Are they really Emily's relatives? What cold family members!' thought Linda angrily.

"I don't think that we need to call the police. Leave this matter alone. I trust Mr. Liu. He couldn't have

done such thing. What's more, Mr. Liu always takes good care of Emily, " Emily's aunt said as she

signalled her husband with her eyes, indicating him to say something.

Her husband then added, "Yes, I think so, too. Getting the police involved would be too much for this

matter. Let's leave it alone. Anyway, Emily isn't doing well in her studies. She'd better not occupy a slot

for the student grant that would be better off given to others. It's the right time to stop her education."

"What are you talking about? You are both ridiculous! Are you really Emily's aunt and uncle?" Linda

suddenly felt suspicious of their attitudes. She sensed that something was unusual with the way they

were acting, but she didn't know what exactly it was.

"Okay, okay. Let's wrap this up and go, " said Emily's aunt.

She hurriedly dragged Emily by her hands, eager to take her home.

Emily struggled hard to get rid of her aunt. She didn't want to go back home with them.

With strength, her aunt pulled her all the way toward the door.

"No, I don't want to go back with you. Please let me go, " Emily begged.

"Let go of her!" Linda yelled.

Since Emily wasn't willing to go back with her aunt and uncle, Linda decided to help Emily make a

choice now. She didn't want to see Emily live in such a horrible family anymore. And, what Jerome had

done was a crime.

Linda wouldn't let him get away with his crime. He had to accept his punishment by law.

"Ms. Xia, don't you think you are already intervening in other people's business? We are Emily's legal

guardians. It's up to us whether we should call the police or not. We are determined that we won't call

the police, and this matter should be over now, " said Emily's aunt.

Linda kept silent and looked at Emily's aunt with a stern look on her face.

She couldn't believe that Emily's aunt could be so cold to Emily.

No matter what, even if Emily was only their niece, they had been living together for a long time. They

should at least show a little bit of care for Emily.

After a moment, Linda closed her eyes. She couldn't bear it and said, "Ron."

Ron immediately understood.

He walked up to Emily's aunt and told her, "Mrs. Wang, you can go by yourself and leave Emily here."

"Why? What do you want? Do you want to steal my niece away from me? Yeah, you are right. We

should call the police then, not to arrest Mr. Liu, but to arrest you, " said Emily's aunt. She didn't want to

concede.

"You want to call the police to arrest me?" Ron laughed. He then took out a police card from his pocket

and showed it to her. The card wrote, "Police Supervisor, Class One: Ron Li."

Linda was shocked all of a sudden. She didn't know that Ron was actually a policeman. Moreover, he

was a police officer with a supervisorial rank.

"You... you are a policeman?" Emily's aunt instantly widened her eyes with shock. She started to

tremble all over with fear.

The police had a rank system from the top to the bottom as follows: Commissioner General, Deputy

Chief, Commissioner, Police Supervisor, and then Police Superintendent.

Each police title had three levels. Class One was the highest of each rank, and Class Three was the

lowest.

It was already a rare case for common people to meet a police officer with the title of Police

Superintendent of Class Three.

That was why they were so shocked to see a Police Supervisor of Class One there.

"Mr. Liu, you have already constituted a criminal offence, so we need to investigate your legal

responsibility. In accordance with the law, you should be under arrest now, " Ron told Jerome in a

peaceful voice, but to Jerome, Ron's voice sounded like a thunder, appalling him very much.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"No, you can't arrest me. I haven't done anything wrong. It's her own fault. She did badly in her studies

so she couldn't get her student grant. I have tried my best to help her, " Jerome shouted.

"I don't care whether you admit to it now or not. We will look into your case and make it clear. If you

really have done it, you will end up in jail, " said Ron.

Then, Ron asked the other three bodyguards to take Jerome away.

Linda walked up to Emily, who was shivering with fear. She bent down and lifted Emily up, saying,

"What do you think? You don't want to go back home with your aunt and uncle, right? Do you want to

come home with me? Let me look after you for the following weeks until you enter a college."

Emily could get accommodation in college, so Linda didn't need to worry about where Emily should go

if she had successfully entered a college.

The Mu's Group had also put in some funds to sponsor poor university students for their education.

Linda would ask Charles to spare some of the funds to Emily if she couldn't get scholarship from her

own college. That way, Emily didn't need to worry about her tuition fee, too.
