Chapter 268
Ava quickly opened the envelope, her pupils contracting.
"Dad, you found the surveillance footage?"
"Yes."
Hayden looked at Ava and said, "Do whatever you want to do. If we keep letting Liam go on like this, he'll drag down the entire family."
Isabella fell into thought.
[Isabella's streaming again. What's she going to talk about today?]
[That face without makeup still looks so attractive, like it's glowing.]
In less than two minutes, the viewer count reached a hundred thousand. Isabella smiled slightly and said, "Today I'm going to talk about something interesting. Make sure you all subscribe to my stream."
[Stop teasing and just tell us.]
[What should I do? I'm at work. Can you stream at a different time? I want to watch but I'm afraid to.]
[Let me guess, is it about Liam's family again?]
Isabella continued, "Someone guessed right. Today's topic is indeed related to Liam's family. I mentioned before in my stream that my mother was in a car accident."
[I remember, it was after the fight with Cleo.]
[Don't tell me it was a murder-for-hire.]
[Watch your words, everyone.]
[I have a feeling haters are about to show up.]
Isabella smiled at the scrolling comments and said slowly, "My mother was hit by someone Cleo hired. We couldn't find evidence at the time because all the nearby surveillance cameras were broken, and there were no witnesses, so the matter just went nowhere. But we never gave up investigating, and now we've found evidence."
[So even rich people have broken surveillance cameras when something happens.]
[I feel a bit better now.]
[Just because she says she has evidence doesn't mean she has it. If she really had evidence, she'd take it straight to the authorities. Why bring it up online?]
[Don't let her fool you. She's just using you, trying to manipulate you all.]
"Don't worry, I'll hand over the evidence to the authorities soon. In the meantime, I can show you the video."
Isabella picked up another phone, which showed a driving video.
It was the road conditions when Ava was hit—the car suddenly changed lanes and deliberately hit Ava.
[The video is so small, who can see clearly who it is? She really has a way of lying.]
[Boring, I'm leaving.]
[If you're going to show a video, at least make it proper. This is so uninteresting.]
Isabella smiled at the screen, "Here's an audio recording. Anyone who knows Cleo will definitely recognize her."
She played the recording.
The comment section was still full of people defending Cleo, refusing to admit she did anything.
But Cleo, watching the stream, felt a chill through her body. The recording Isabella played was indeed her voice, but it was from inside a private room at the time. How did Isabella get the recording?
Cleo took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She immediately called Chase.
"I'll get PR on it right away." Chase immediately sent people to control the narrative.
"No, it won't work. Chase, Mom doesn't want to go to jail. Make them disappear—it's better for all of us. Then we won't have to worry anymore." Cleo hated Isabella with a passion.
Ever since Isabella married into the Moore family, her life had gotten worse and worse.
Chase frowned, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. They're living, breathing people. How could I dare kill anyone? Don't do anything rash. I'll send a lawyer home right away. Talk to the lawyer properly. Don't worry, nothing will happen."
After all, Ava didn't die. The worst outcome would be some time in prison.
These words didn't comfort Cleo.
Her eyes were still fixed on Isabella's stream. Sure enough, she was still streaming!
[Lying can get you arrested too.]
[Better leave it to the authorities.]
[You women should be careful. What if they try to silence you?]
Seeing this, Isabella pretended to be scared.
"To be honest, I'm quite worried about my safety too. Ever since word got out about my husband's death, my family and I have stayed home without going out. If you don't see me streaming for several days in a row, I might be in trouble."
[Whatever, I already called the authorities for you. If you're lying, you're done for.]
[I called too. Let's wait and see.]
Isabella smiled faintly, "Go ahead and call. I haven't said a single false word. I have something even more interesting."
She deliberately paused after saying this.
[What? Tell us quickly!]
[See that meaningful smile? I think it's going to be explosive!]
[Last time was about a car accident. What about this time?]
[I think it might be dirt on Chase or Liam.]
"It's also about a car accident!"
Isabella said mysteriously, "But this time it's not about hiring someone to hit someone, but actively hitting someone."
Cleo gripped her phone tightly, "Isabella! How does she know?"
She immediately called Chase again.
"Mom! I'm really busy here. Stop bothering me." Chase's voice had no patience at all.
"They seem to know about your dad hitting and killing someone. If you don't believe me, go watch her stream yourself!"
Cleo said quickly, "What I'm afraid of isn't just that your dad killed someone, but that they know even more!"
Reminded of this, Chase's pupils contracted.
He immediately hung up.
At that moment, Isabella was just saying, "Isn't it amazing? Someone was killed in a hit-and-run, but there's no news about it at all."
Chase pressed his lips together tightly. He thought Isabella and her group had quieted down, but they were actually lying in wait.
But how did Isabella know about their dealings with Ash?
He quickly contacted Liam.
Compared to Chase and the others' nervousness, the stream viewers were much calmer. The idea of hiring someone to hit someone had more impact on them than drunk driving and killing someone.
[Isabella, is there something you're not telling us?]
[Usually the important stuff is saved for last. Isabella, is the second incident accidental and the first one deliberate, or did we guess wrong?]
[Do rich people like the Moore family even need to drive themselves?]
[What does that mean? I don't understand!]
Just as everyone was discussing most heatedly, Isabella wanted to end the stream to leave suspense and create buzz, but someone directly shut down her stream.
