Chapter 410
The crowd hushed as they weighed Queena’s words, trying to discern the truth behind them.
Seeing the silence, Marina feared the tide might turn against her. Instantly, tears streamed down her face. She covered her stomach, feigning unbearable pain.
“My stomach hurts so much, everyone. As a young girl, if I wasn’t really hit, how could I possibly humble myself to lie here?” she cried.
“Besides, if I were scamming. I’d be asking for money, not calling the police she added in a choked voice.
The onlookers were moved by her speech, nodding in agreement.
“I think the girl makes sense. According to her attire, she doesn’t seem like she’d risk her safety to decrive people, someone said.
“Absolutely, others chimed in
Seeing the opinions swaying back toward the woman on the ground, Queena worriedly tugged at Cynthia’s sleeve. “Cynthia, what should we do?”
Queena was mainly concerned that the surveillance cameras, positioned behind the car, might not clearly record whether or not it was a seam due to the close distance.
Cynthia, however, wasn’t worried and gave her a reassuring look. “Don’t worry. We didn’t hit her, and we’ll figure it out when the time comes.”
With that, she pulled out her phone and said to the crowd. “Since this woman is so eloquent. I don’t want to waste my energy. Let the police sort
this out
Then, in front of everyone, she called the police. This move lef, everyone stunned. They wondered whether she was not afraid because she had strong backing or because she was truly wronged.
Marina was a bit anxious, but she wasn’t afraid. Before deciding to do this, she had carefully observed her surroundings.
The car had come within a hair’s breadth of her, and she had fallen just in time, making the truth indistinguishable from the falsehood.
The police arrived quickly at the antique street, just a few hundred miles away from the parking lot.
At that moment, the boss of the antique shop heard the sirens and with his heart jolting, he thought, ‘Could it be that the woman wasn’t scared and really called the police!
As the sirens grew closer and the timing seemed so coincidental, the boss became more suspicious and immediately instructed his men inside, “You guys leave here and watch from a distance. If that woman really called the police, pout those photos online. If she doesn’t want me to live in peace, I won’t let her off either”
His men quickly left the back room. One of them had already pulled up the footage they had just taken, ready to post the photos anonymously with just a click.
As the police car approached, the boss’s back was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
He hadn’t failed all those years, and now he might end up in jail because of a woman.
The antique shop was located near the parking lot. The crowd in the parking lot had caused a massive trattic jam, forcing the police to park their car outside the antique shop.
The boss, unaware of what had happened in the parking lot, was so scared that his heart almost stopped beating.
He signaled his men to start the operation, but the police didn’t stop after getting out of the car; they went straight to the parking lot.
The boss was dumbfounded, but it was too late to call his men back. The photos had already been posted.
The police had squeezed through the crowd and were about to ask Cynthia for details.
Marina immediately started to cry, as if she had been greatly wronged, and spoke first to attract the police’s attention, “Sir, these two women deliberately hit me like this. Please help me.”
“You’re lying. We didn’t hit you; you fell down by yourself Queena couldn’t help but speak up.
Marina knew what the focus was now, so she didn’t argue with Queena and continued to look at the police. “I work in a Fortune 500 company. How could I risk my safety for scamming?
The police, unlike the mindless onlookers, didn’t rush to conclusions when encountering such matters.

Chapter 410
The leading officer looked at Marina who was lying on ise grond, frowning in thought, “This woman doesn’t look like she was hit by a car.
Noticing the officer’s gaze, Marina was secretly pleased and thought that no matter what their job was, men couldn’t resist the charm.
She inadvertently pulled up the short hem of her skirt a bit more and shrugged her shoulders hard, showing off her impressive career line. completely disregarding the people present, whose gazes had become quite blatant.
The officer, facing such a scene, immediately got goosebumps all over and quickly turned his head to instruct his subordinates to get the surveillance video and final witnesses among the onlookers.
Queena curled her lips and asked coldly. “Are you so skilleil in flirting? Are you really is that line of work?”
“Don’t compare me to you. I work in a Fortune 500 company, and wennen like you what can’t make it to the big stage will never compare Marina said, forgetting to pretend to be in pain, her face full of superiority when talking about her jobs,
Queena was so angry with Marina that she wanted to go and lidi Marina’s skull to see what was inside,
Cynthia quickly grabbed Queena and joked, “Shall I step on the gas now!
Queena’s attention was immediately diverted. She shook her head violently. “No, no, no, it’s not worth getting into trouble for a woman like her.”
At this time, the police officer came to Cynthir’s side and played the surveillance valeo. “Miss, the surveillance vides seems to show that you knocked this lady down, and there is a long skid mark behind the car, indicating that the car was indeed in a dangerous situation. Now, please come
with us.”
Cynthia frowned slightly, a little displeased, and thought. The police officer was really husty in drawing conclusions: It’s just a waste of time waiting for so long. It seems that now I can only rely on myself
Marina was secretly pleased to hear the officer’s conclusion which was the same as she had estimated.
But soon she saw Cynthia lead the officer to the front of the car and point to the protruding bumper,
Cynthia explained, “Sir, my car has a unique nowdel, and the front bumper is quite prominent. If I hit someone, it would be the bumper that hit them first. So, based on this lady’s height and the situation where she’s lying on the ground unable to get up, her legs should be injured to soine

Cynthia didn’t say it explicitly, but the officer understood
The skin on Marina’s legs was delicate and fair, without a scratchi
mediately and looked at Marina’s legs.
Moreover, she was too close to the car. If someone had a car accident, they would either be under the car and unable to move or be sent flying. instead of lying right in front of the car.
The officer’s gaze at Marina immediately filled with suspicion.
