“What swing?”
I was slapped by him, my phone screen still lit up, and the photo Kevin and I took during the day caught Reynold’s eye.
He glanced over and his face became extremely gloomy.
My phone was thrown on the ground and shattered into pieces.
“At a time like this, do you think it was useful to deceive me with these kind of photos?”
“Ella, your acting skills are so superb. Do you think that by simply finding a boyfriend to help you with the acting, you can escape the suspicion of hurting Cindy? You’re dreaming!”
He disregarded my explanation and pulled me to the yard to see the swing.
The rope of the swing broke.
Cindy insisted that I intentionally sawed it off.
“Reynold, I dare not continue living at Ella’s house anymore. I know she had a secret crush on you, and I thought she had finally given up on it. But to my surprise, she was waiting for me here. Did she think that if she made me believe I was dead, she could marry you without any guilt? And then she could be the bride at the wedding?”
“Wuwuwu, I lost. I can’t compete with Ella’s cunningness. I give up, is it okay for me to move out after I’m discharged from the hospital…”
Cindy cried inconsolably like a victim.
Reynold’s eyes were filled with anger.
“Move, I’m having someone move out right now!”
“Ella, I had given you chances, but you repeatedly crossed the line and hurt Cindy!”
“People have to pay the price for the mistakes they made!”
Reynold gave a signal, and immediately, a dozen bodyguards appeared behind him. As they surrounded me, I had a sense of foreboding.
“What did you want to do to me?”
“I have already said, the rope of the swing was not cut by me!”

Reynold became angrier, with a cold smirk on his face.
“The Moore family, it must have been one of you two siblings. Noah definitely wouldn’t do such a thing. It wasn’t you who cut it, so was it Cindy who cut it herself?”
I suddenly looked up.
There is indeed a possibility of this.
After all, it was not the first time that he had pretended to be weak after the last water splashing
incident.
“Reynold, I had no reason to do such a thing…”
The words were not finished yet.
Cindy continued to sob, “Last time Ella said that she couldn’t marry you herself and wouldn’t let me marry you either. At that time, I thought she was just angry for a moment, but I never expected that she actually wanted to harm me…”
Reynold’s face turned extremely cold.
He didn’t give me a chance to react and had those bodyguards tie me up.
“I wouldn’t bully you, but Ella, I wanted to make you taste the pain Cindy felt.”
“She fell and got injured from the swing, so I will also make you relive the scene at that time and let you taste this kind of pain.”
I was awkwardly carried up to the second–floor terrace by them.
“There is no swing here, so let’s throw you down from the second floor, anyway you won’t die from the fall, and there is a doctor ready to save your life at any time!”
“Throw it down!”
Reynold gave the order.
The bodyguards immediately lifted me up, as easily as picking up a rabbit.
“Stop!”
“Stop!”
Two different voices overlapped with each other.
I turned my head in surprise and saw that the person approaching was Kevin and my brother Noah

Moore.
My brother came running over with a pale face and shouted angrily at him.
“Reynold, if you ever dare to touch Ella again, I will no longer have you as my brother!”
When Kevin looked at me, his eyes were full of pity, but he was calmer than my brother.
“Mr. Marvey, you should have something to say about what Ella did wrong. By instructing the bodyguard to act in this way, it constitutes the crime of intentional homicide.”
“Ella?”
Reynold chewed on these words repeatedly, and when he raised his gaze, his eyes became even
colder.
“Mr. Harvey, I didn’t know which wind blew you here.”
“Ella did something wrong, and as her older brother, it is my responsibility to educate her. Even if you have the support of the Harris family’s business, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s affairs.”
