Chapter 373

“Didn’t you hear what Nina said? She fell into the sea too. You’re painting your daughter as the victim, but it’s Nina who’s the real victim here. She didn’t even mention your daughter, yet you’re the one pointing fingers first!” Yvonne could not hold back against the unreasonable accusations.
And then, Mrs. Jasper added, “How could my daughter possibly harm anyone? Right now, it’s her lying in the hospital bed, not this woman. That only proves she’s the one behind my daughter’s condition. I refuse to believe it was just an accident! Maybe she’s fabricating the story of her own fall to cover up her crime!”
She was convinced it was Nina’s jealousy that led her to push her daughter into the sea. After all, nobody saw it happen, so Nina could easily lie.
“You’re being utterly unreasonable. Fine, let’s call the police. Let them investigate!” Yvonne retorted.
“Sure, let them investigate. I want to see how she’ll play her cards!” Mrs. Jasper declared aggressively.
Nina looked at Mrs. Jasper calmly and said, “I’ve already called the police. They’ll be here soon, and the truth will come out.”
Unfazed, Mrs. Jasper laughed coldly, “You’re so calm because you know there’s no evidence. I’ve checked, and the surveillance in that area has been down for days. The police will find nothing. But mark my words, I have a hundred ways to send you to jail for my daughter!”
Hearing this, Nash furrowed his brows, looking at Mrs. Jasper coldly. “It remains to be seen whether it’s Nina going to jail or your entire Jasper Corporation losing everything overnight.”
“Mr. York, our Jasper family isn’t easily intimidated!” Mr. Jasper retorted sternly. “If we’re afraid of you, we wouldn’t have our company anymore.”
Nash turned his gaze to Mr. Jasper, his lips slightly curled, his eyes inscrutable. “Alright, let’s see who comes out on top today!”
The two families faced off, each refusing to back down, leaving the situation at a stalemate.
From the ward came a voice, “Miss Jasper is awake!”
Hearing this, the Jasper couple rushed to the ward without hesitation. Seeing Stella lying in bed, pale and weak, Mrs. Jasper’s heart softened, and she cried as she leaned over the bedside, “Stella, you’ve finally woken up! You had me so worried!”
Stella, seeing them all there, weakly asked, “Mom, Dad, why are you here?”
“How could we not come when you’ve been through such a big ordeal? Your mom and I were so worried!” Mr. Jasper said with furrowed brows, visibly relieved now that she was awake. “I’m sorry, Mom, Dad, for worrying you,” Stella apologized again.
Seeing her so weak, the Jasper parents felt a pang of pain. Mrs. Jasper grabbed her hand, then realizing something, pointed to Nina behind her. “Stella, it’s good that you’ve woken up. Someone pushed you into the sea, and Mom won’t let you suffer in vain. Was it that woman who harmed you? Just tell me, and your dad and I won’t let her get away with it, even if it means losing everything!”
Stella, seeing Nina standing unharmed, suddenly recalled everything that happened at the pier. She had intended to push Nina into the sea to make her disappear, but ended up being pushed in herself. She had nearly died!
Lying half-dead in bed while Nina stood there unscathed, she became instantly agitated. “Mom, Dad, it was her! She pushed me into the sea, she wanted me dead, she tried to murder me! You have to do something about it, put her in jail! I don’t want to see her again!”
