Chapter 98
Ned was handsome with a sunny personality, while Angeline was beautiful and confident.
Out of envy, Ingrid began to imitate Angeline subconsciously. She thought that she would be able to receive a passionate and crazed love like Angeline as long as she looked like her.
That was until the three of them were enrolled in Oceanford College.
Ned and Angeline got into a car accident. One of them ended up in a vegetative state, while the other lost their memories.
Like a lowly thief, Ingrid stole Ned's love. She also experienced Ned's love, passionate enough to make everyone envious.
Afraid that the others would say that Ned loved her because of her similarities with Angeline, she changed her image to the opposite of Angeline's.
Yet, Ned's love for her grew by the day. It didn't decrease in the slightest because of her changes.
Ingrid even felt that Ned loved her more than he did Angeline.
Angeline and Ned would always fight when they were together. But Ned would always be the one to yield.
However, Ned never had the heart to argue with Ingrid when they were together. Whenever a spark of argument began to rise, he would put on a spoiled act.
He didn't have the heart to upset her in the slightest.
That was until Angeline woke up.
The fear that she would lose Ned at any time gradually diminished each time he humiliated Angeline.
Although she felt sorry and guilty toward Angeline, at the same time, she was also relieved. Even though Ned had once loved Angeline deeply, he still loved Ingrid the most.
Ned had also told her countless times that she would still be the person he loved the most, even if he recovered his memories.
Still, Ingrid couldn't face it. This was especially true after she took credit for saving someone Angeline had rescued to secure an endorsement deal.
Ingrid was terrified.
After a long while, she sent Ned a message that she couldn't get away because the crew delayed her. She told him that she would visit him tomorrow.
Ned responded to her message quickly. He reminded her to eat on time and get a good rest.
Ingrid felt a little more at ease after seeing his prompt reply.
…
The next day, Angeline sought out the most well-known lawyer in Cloudsville to handle the case early in the morning.
The lawyer was willing to take up the case since it had garnered attention. He was even willing to take the case pro bono because it was a guaranteed win.
The lawyer, Kevin Watson, turned the laptop screen toward Angeline.
"According to the evidence and the video timeline you've provided, as well as the first testimony by the student at River Town High School, it's clear that Tommy is the instigator."
Kevin pointed at the screen.
"Look at this. The testimonial here proves that the perpetrator did not go beyond the instigator's request when he committed the crime. However, Michael changed his testimonial in the afternoon."
Kevin looked solemnly at Angeline.
"He said that Tommy only bought the video from him. He insisted that he had accused Tommy earlier to escape the charges. He stated that he realized his behavior was wrong."
"Mr. Marshall from Fletcher Corporation must have intervened in this matter. He must have bribed or threatened Michael's parents," Angeline speculated.
"So, let me ask you this, Ms. Emmerson. Would you be willing to write the perpetrator a letter of understanding as a condition to request for his true testimony?" Kevin asked.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
