Chapter 106: The Truth?
Hearing those words from Tricia again, Lily could not hold in her anger anymore and instead jumped towards Tricia holding to her. This was exactly what Tricia wanted. She knew that if she should make Lily angry, then they would be able to easily get words out of Lily, and that was just all they wanted at the moment because the police had already signaled for Alex that they should not do anything that would make her stay silent or get to know that she was already being noticed by everyone.
“How dare you tell me I am a bitch? You are the crazy bitch. I have tried my best. Yes, you might say I'm a very bad person just because I wanted James to myself, and yes, I would not oppose to it that I am a bad person at all. But I am not as bad as you might label me to be because if I was that bad, then I would have told everybody Isabella's secrets. What is the use of room telling Isabella's borrowing secrets? Even though I have evidence and other things and I badly want to tell everyone her secret, I still did not do it. That is just because I care about you guys, and I care about what you guys would think, and I would always care about it because I thought I should not put Isabella in the limelight. She should just leave what belongs to me for me, and then everything will be at peace. But she's still refused. Even when I had evidence against her, I was still the one placed at the lowest.
Everyone still makes a mockery of me. Can you even imagine me? I was literally the best, but Isabella made sure to get the worst out of me. Can you even imagine that?” Lily continued to yell as Tricia laughed.
“I cannot imagine any of your maniac acts, but nothing surprised me more than the fact that you don't even know when you are going wrong. You don't know when you begin to act crazy. That is the reason why I am calling you a crazy bitch. You are already acting like one at the moment.” Tricia said to her, and instantly Lily's deep frown came back to her as a realization, and she stepped back from Tricia and looked at everyone.
The police were already armed, waiting for her to do anything stupid, and then she looked up and noticed the security cameras were actually blinking at her. Not just that; a police officer was holding her phone in the corner. Lily stepped back quickly and went back towards her seat.
“All you guys just did now is manipulate me. All of you know that I have anger issues, yet you guys decided to manipulate me to get me to say things I did not do.” Lily began to shout as Alex stepped forward.
“Don't you see? No matter how you try to oppose, no matter how you try to act innocent, you are still you. You are still a murderer. Someone who did not even fear to kill her own female. Someone who did nothing to you. She was literally innocent. But you found a way to attack her. Even when there is no way for you to even uphold and say she did something, you still forcefully found a way. Aren't you even tired already? Isn't this... isn't it pissing you off enough? Aren't you tired? Let's go already. You have been caught. Evidence everywhere, is it?” Alex scoffed.
“You guys have no evidence against me. Rachel is just lying. She... she's making up words. She doesn't know anything. She doesn't even remember what happened. Anything she tells you is a lie. And I will not utter another word until I get a lawyer. Until my lawyer gets here, I am proving right. All of you will see that you are all just pointing blame at me and Isabella was the bad person. Trust me, Alex. You'll be the first person to hate her by the time you know what she did to you.” Lily said angrily.
Just then, the door opened again, and one of the worst people to be expected stepped in. It was James, and he rushed in only to see that the place was crowded. He immediately stopped in front of the door and sighed in tiredness.
“I heard that the culprit has been caught.” he said as Alex turned to him.
“Didn't I warn you? Didn't I warn you not to ever come anywhere close to Isabella? Why are you still here again?” Alex yelled as James did not even listen to him and instead walked past him.
But Alex was not ready to let it go as he gripped James's shirt. James looked at him angrily and flung his hand away.
“Don't you dare, know your limits. Know when I am making a joke with you and when things are serious. I am not here to play around with you.” James said to Alex.
“Why won't I continue this act of mine when you don't know when to stop? Okay, it is already heard, and we understand you care for Isabella because she is your student, and you were trying to know what happened. Now you know. Can you just let us be at peace? You can't even meet with this girl. She... she... she is as young as your daughter. Why don't you stop this stupidity of yours?” Alex said as Mirabelle quickly rushed to hold Alex.
“Stop it.” she muttered to him, but Alex refused.
“Don't tell me when to stop. You know what he did was bad. You know what he did was wrong. How dare you tell me to stop. I am only trying to stand up for what I think is right,” he muttered to Mirabelle as James laughed.
“Everything you think you know, you don't know. Yes, she might just be somebody I care for, but I am more important to Isabella than you can ever be. I continue to tell you this, for you refuse to believe she loves me, not you.”
Those words bound in Alex's head, hearing those words repeatedly again.
