CHAPTER 1001 EXCUSES

After hearing Siobhan's words, Jackson fell into a deep silence. It was a long while later that he askedsolemnly, "Evelyn planned this?"

Siobhan shook her head, her face full of fatigue as she said with a sigh, "I don't know either, but sinceEvelyn pretended to be me to lure Nicole over, she definitely has a part in this. The child in Nicole'sbelly was also Colton's, and he's now looking into the matter. If he replaces out that Evelyn was behindthis, I'm afraid that…"

Naturally, Jackson knew how things would end as well. Although Evelyn had no blood ties with them, itstill pained them to think that the girl they had raised for over twenty years would get into trouble.

"With Colton's personality, Evelyn is probably going to be locked up." Jackson's expression turnedgrave.

Siobhan clammed up. If they didn't intervene in this matter, Evelyn would definitely be sent to jail.

After pondering over it, Siobhan said with a sigh, "Why don't we go back and see what Evelyn has tosay?"

…

Meanwhile, Evelyn had lingering fear within her after returning to the Gould Residence from thehospital. She had watched from below how Nicole fell from the third floor, leaving a sea of crimsonunder her, and realized how cruel and decisive Sasha really was.

After returning home, she began to feel uneasy. As she had expected, she had just taken a seatupstairs when one of their housekeepers urged her downstairs.

Evelyn's heart skipped a beat guiltily, but she quickly suppressed it. She hadn't done anything anyway,so she had nothing to be afraid of. Holding back her guilt, she slowly headed downstairs.

In the living room, Jackson and Siobhan were seated on the couch with grave expressions. Evelyncould vaguely guess what had happened upon seeing their faces, but she kept a smile on her face andhid her guilty conscience as she descended the stairs.

"Mom, Dad, what's wrong? Why did you come back looking so serious?" she asked in her best attemptto keep her tone light.

As Siobhan lifted her gaze to look at her, a sharp look flashed past her eyes. She lowered her voiceand said in a steely tone, "Don't you know what you've done? Why are you asking us?"

Evelyn's gaze faltered, but she quickly concealed the look in her eyes. With a small laugh, she saidmildly, "Mom, what are you talking about? I have no idea at all."

Upon seeing that Evelyn was still playing dumb, Siobhan was filled with fury. How did the daughter shehad raised for so many years turn out to be someone full of lies?

She angrily slammed a hand on the table with a loud bang and roared sternly, "Evelyn, you used myidentity to lure Nicole to the hospital, then made her go to the opposite room and caused hermiscarriage because of it! Do you know how serious this matter is?"

Evelyn had never seen Siobhan lose her temper before, and she cowered in fear. Soon, her eyes filledwith tears as she sniffled, saying in a choked voice, "I know that I'm not your daughter anymore, so youhave a problem with me now."

As Siobhan looked at the sobbing girl in front of her, she only felt as if her chest was stuffed with cotton,making it difficult for her to catch her breath.

She looked at Evelyn's miserable face and said calmly, "I've never had a problem with you, but you'vealready broken the law with what you did today, do you know that?"

Naturally, Evelyn couldn't admit to the truth, so she toughed it out and said persistently, "I just invitedher out by pretending to be you! I didn't do anything else! How am I breaking the law?"

Siobhan froze at her answer.

Evelyn continued, "I was just mad at Nicole for stealing Colton away! But I only warned her and didn'tdo anything to her. Why are you being so accusatory? Don't tell me you think I did something wrong?"
