My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess

Chapter 38

Lucille spoke clearly and her words were neither too fast nor too slow.

“The drowning happened last week, on the night of my 19th birthday party. I remember it very clearly. I

didn’t get along well with my classmates, so I didn’t invite any of them, but they all came. Who brought

them? It was Zoey who brought them all there without my permission, Lucille began.

“That night, Zoey was with my ex-husband. I went forward to question her, but she deliberately tripped

on the stairs and was sent to the hospital so that she could flee the scene.”

She continued, “After that, your children, who all of you thought were so pure and kind that they

wouldn’t even dare to step on an ant, forced me into the water. They did it all for the sake of getting

revenge for Zoey, and I nearly drowned to death.”

At that point, Lucille smiled, but her eyes were filled with an evil spirit, cold and demonic.

“I’m sure that all of you are more knowledgeable and experienced than I am. Can’t you see that all of

this is someone making another person do their dirty work?”

All the parents went silent. They glanced around and looked at each other.

Zoey’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly protested, “It wasn’t me. I didn’t do that!”

“Did I say it was you? Why are you jumping to conclusions?” Lucille questioned with a faint smile. She

looked calm and composed. “Deep down, you know the truth.”

Of course, if the parents were still stubborn enough to be fooled by Zoey when Lucille had already said

so much, then it would have been a waste of her breath.

Fortunately, these parents were not as ignorant as she imagined.

They soon understood the meaning of her words.

There was one thing that Lucille was not wrong about. Their children had committed a crime for the

sake of Zoey. Why was it that their children had to bear the consequences while the person who

instigated them in the first place got off scot-free?

Clearly, Zoey was just making them do her dirty work.

On top of that, Zoey claimed to be Lucille’s sister, but everyone in the city knew that she was just an

adopted daughter of the Jules family and that she had stolen Lucille’s fiance.

What kind of disgusting excuse of a sister was that?

“So, after all that fuss, it turns out that you’re the real b*tch here!” One of the violent mothers couldn’t

suppress her anger after being deceived. She raised her bag and hit Zoey on the head while yelling at

her. “I’ll beat you to death, you shameless culprit!”

Zoey was stunned for a moment and quickly explained, “No. Don’t believe Lucille’s words. She has bad

intentions. I’m on the same side as you!”

“Really? Tell me, then. Did you use our children to do your dirty work?” the woman roared.

“No, no. I really want to help you!” Zoey’s voice was choked up. Ever since getting adopted by Howard,

she had been protected wherever she went. She had never been in such a miserable situation.

She really couldn’t figure out why Lucille was able to turn the tables with just a few words. All the

parents had switched sides and turned their backs on her.

At this moment, the reporters who she had informed arrived as well.

The reporters heard the news and came to get in on it. Although their initial target was Lucille, as long

as there was drama going on, it didn’t matter who their target was. They could still make a story out of

it. Two or three cameras were aimed right at Zoey’s gorgeous face.

Things were not over yet. The woman who had just started the fight scolded her harshly. “I didn’t

expect you have so many tricks up your sleeve at such a young age. Even when my child is being

tortured because of you, you still have the audacity to say that you’re a good person and that you’re

valuable. Tsk!”

resentment in

their hearts.

When they received Zoey’s call, they all abandoned their work and ran to the entrance of the police

station to stop Lucille. Initially, they all agreed to Zoey’s suggestion to force Lucille to agree to

compromise.

Thinking about it in retrospect, though, they found the idea to be horribly stupid.
