Chapter 1055:
âDoctorââ Eileen began.
âYou donât need to bother with me. I wonât tell you anything,â Miranda interjected as she got to her feet, ready to leave.
But the moment she saw the men in suits surrounding her, she froze.
âDo you want to force me to stay here? Thatâs against the law!â she yelled at Eileen.
âI think thereâs been a misunderstanding. Youâre the one who has broken the law,â Eileen replied calmly. âThese men are police officers. In light of todayâs discoveries, Iâve compiled proof of Jaliyahâs fake pregnancy and initiated legal action. Youâre also implicated in this since you issued the fake report for her. Your career as a doctor is over.â
Mirandaâs eyes widened in disbelief. âThat is impossible! How could you have known that Jaliyah faked her pregnancy? Youâre lying to me!â
Eileen raised an eyebrow. âThe only reason I brought these officers here is because I felt sorry for you and wanted to give you a chance to redeem yourself. Jaliyah admitted that the fake pregnancy was your idea and that the only reason she went through with it was because you promised to cover for her.â
âI donât believe you!â Miranda retorted angrily. But beneath her defiant exterior, her trust in her best friend began to crumble.
They had been friends for many years, so her trust in Jaliyah had always been unquestionable.
However, that was before the incident. Now, after the incident⦠she believed it was possible that Jaliyah would betray her.
gαâηÏνððsâ¤cоðº, your storytelling home âIâm ruthless when it comes to getting what I want. I wonât let you off the hook, but my ultimate goal is to make Jaliyah suffer even more,â Eileenâs words cut deep, shattering the last vestiges of trust Miranda had in Jaliyah.
âDespite her betrayal, you still regard her as a friend? Then I must admit, youâre unlucky, but your deceit is inexcusable. And as for the pregnant woman who offered the samples for Jaliyah, she will also face the consequences.â
After seeing Jaliyah that day, Eileen had pieced everything togetherâJaliyah had found two friends to cover for her and fake her pregnancy.
Hearing Eileenâs words, Miranda became convinced that Jaliyahâs secret had truly been exposed. If Jaliyahâs secret were still safe, then Eileen wouldnât have known about her pregnant friend.
âThis is your last opportunity to come clean,â Eileen said. âTell the police the truth, and you might receive a more lenient sentence. Otherwise, youâll be held fully accountable as the mastermind behind this.â With her arms folded, Eileen reclined against the sofa, awaiting a response.
But Miranda cast a wary glance over her shoulder before turning back. âDo you honestly believe Iâm that gullible? Who do you think you are, summoning the police at your whim? I donât believe you.â
Eileenâs eyes glinted with mischief as she spoke. âI have the money to do the things I want, Miranda. Leave right now if you doubt itâgo see how quickly theyâll arrest you.â
Miranda blinked, taken aback. She had never witnessed such a blatant power play before. Her experience with wealthy circles was limited.
In her mind, the rich operated by their own complex rules, wielding ultimate authority.
