Chapter 1624 I Thought You Were A Cop
Angela's anger had affected the innocent. She stared at Arvin angrily and said, "It was your good pal that hurt my bestie. You ought to teach him a lesson!"
"..." "What happened?" asked Arvin. Arvin grasped Angela's hand as she was leaving, and caressed it.
Stanley said in a plain voice, "The investigation is still ongoing but it's almost done." The text could not have been sent by him at all, because the time showed that it was sent yesterday afternoon. He was at a meeting at that time, and the phone was being charged in his office. There were two possibilities: First, that someone had slipped into his office and used his phone when he was at the meeting. Second, that his phone was infected with a virus.
He had already detained Grace for intentional assault.
After the investigation, if the results showed that it was indeed her, he definitely would not let Grace go for hurting his woman and his baby.
Angela tried to rush forward and hit Stanley again, but Arvin stopped her and said, "Don't worry, at least wait until the investigation result comes out."
After all they were good pals. They knew each other very well.
Angela stared back at Arvin, "Don't you stick up for him. It is because of him that Nancy was lying in the ward!" She pointed at Stanley and said, "Even if he and Grace had nothing going on between them, Nancy almost lost her baby because of him." As for Grace, Angela would surely make her pay for what she had done.
"Yeah, it was because of me. It was all my fault. Angela, please, ask Nancy to try and cheer up, even if she won't forgive me, okay?"
Angela was still agitated. "How do you expect someone to cheer up after they had found out that their fiancé and their sister were having an affair?", she shouted at Stanley, "Stanley, do you know how Grace had treated Nancy before?" asked Angela. "And you allowed Grace to be near her!
Not to mention our past history together, when Nancy and I got hurt because of Grace and her mother! They paid off the mob to take Nancy's life!" Angela found out later when Nancy had told her. She had advised Nancy to be careful when meeting Grace.
When the criminals were caught they committed a mass suicide, and the clues that linked to Grace were all cut off.
"I thought you were a cop and that you could protect Nancy better than me, but how could you still let her get hurt?" Even though Angela was relieved that Nancy's baby was safe, she was still very mad.
She trusted Nancy's safety and well-being to Stanley, but she never imagined that Stanley would almost let her have a miscarriage.
Stanley sincerely did not know that Grace would be so cruel and merciless, and that they wanted Nancy dead.
"It was my fault. I had not taken proper care of Nancy. I promise this won't happen again!" Stanley promised to Angela. Nancy could hear them from the inside because they were talking so loudly.
After noticing the sincerity in Stanley's face, Angela started to calm down a little bit. "Never mind, after all you are the father of the baby. I'll ask Nancy to think about it carefully. How about telling Nancy the truth that you had an affair with Grace?" asked Angela.
Stanley opposed immediately, "I am a cop and I won't lie. If I say I didn't do it, it means I didn't do it!"
"...." Angela replied, "Okay, I trust you. Here, this is the medicine grandma asked me to bring over. It will help prevent the miscarriage. You should make the soup for Nancy and let her have some."
She walked into the ward to fetch the medicine that Lily sent for Nancy and handed it to Stanley. Stanley took it and immediately arranged for somebody to make the soup.
To reassure Angela about Nancy's condition, Arvin took another test and made sure that as long as she stayed bedridden and got ample rest, Nancy would be fine. After that, they headed back to Shengfeng Mansion.
Soon after they had left, Nancy fell asleep as she was feeling weak and tired.
At two o'clock in the morning, she was gently awakened by Stanley, "Here, have some soup, it's just been warmed up."
Nancy shook her head, wanting to turn over and face backwards from Stanley, but out of concern for her body, she didn't dare to move.
"Please have some soup, Nancy. It's good for both you and the baby, " insisted Stanley. Stanley took a spoonful of soup, blew a little bit, and reached towards Nancy's lips.
Nancy licked her red lips, ready to take the spoon and the bowl from his hands, but Stanley refused and insisted on feeding her personally.
The next morning, Stanley was awakened by the vibration of his cell phone as he was leaning next to the bed. He opened his eyes, and saw it was only six o'clock. Nancy was still asleep.
He then carefully stood up straight, went outside to the hallway and took the phone call.
"Mr. Stanley, it was just as you had expected, your phone was used by someone else. Someone went into your office but we caught him. It was a hacker pretending to be a temporary cleaner in our bureau. Would you like to meet me here or should I come to you?"
No wonder he could unlock Stanley's cell phone without the password. It was a hacker. Stanley rubbed his sore eyebrow, "Who asked him to do that?"
"It was Grace. She gave the hacker 500 thousand and the hacker then paid off the cleaner. The three of them are responsible for this together."
"I know. You don't need to bring the person here. Just make a video of his confession and send it to me, " said Stanley. Stanley sighed with relief. Finally he had the necessary evidence to prove his innocence.
The compelling evidence in the video made it hard for Nancy not to believe Stanley, and so they got back together. At the same time, Nancy reached out to Gage and told him about this. Gage gave Stanley the evidence he found last time about the assassination attempt on Angela and Nancy.
This time, Grace would not be able to get away. Whether it was Nancy or Stanley, they would not let her escape.
Angela had been busy these past few days. She went to visit Nancy everyday and also received Mandy.
Angela looked at the woman who was crying and blowing her nose, so she handed her some tissue papers, "So, you just got divorced?"
Mandy was divorced, and she was not entitled to any property from her divorce. Just as the saying goes, dogs can't change the fact that they eat feces. Her husband continued to subject her domestic violence and cheat on her.
She had two children. The boy was with her husband Spencer, and the girl was with her. So, Mandy cried in the living room with a broken heart, while the child slept unsoundly in the bedroom.
"Hmm, the woman even has his baby... It has been seven months... We can't go on like this, " said Mandy. The divorce must have been like a liberation for Mandy.
Angela's rage suddenly surged, "That Spencer, I'll teach him a lesson!"
She took her phone at hand as she said that, looking to find someone to beat Spencer.
"You don't have to do that, Angela. Now I don't have many friends, so I have no choice but to come to you. Thank you for having me for at least a while, " said Mandy. Mandy's friends were mostly from the 'middle-class'. If she came to them with a child, it would bring a lot of trouble. Only Angela was capable of helping her.
