Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 16

Helena, however, remained calm and insisted that she knew nothing.

Wilfred soon drove back. Stepping into the living room, he glanced at Josephine first.

Then he walked over to shake hands with the police.

“Thank you for your time. Actually, I’m the one who installed the camera in the study… I’ll make it up to my wife. Since this is personal, I won’t keep you here any longer.”

Shane had friends in the police station. Presumably, Wilfred had called Shane to pull some strings.

Since Josephine didn’t say anything about the video being maliciously edited, the police just nodded, not pressing on it.

After taking some statements and lecturing them a bit, the police soon left.

Helena and Wilfred stood so close that their shadows merged into one. Looking at them sideways, Josephine asked, “Don’t you think you owe me an apology?”

She was 1.74 meters tall to begin with, and her high heels further amplified her commanding

aura.

Frightened, Helena hid behind Wilfred and tugged at the hem of his shirt tentatively.

“Fred, Belinda spends a lot of time doing her homework in the study. She prefers to be alone, and I just wanted to be on the safe side, so I installed the camera. It just happened to record your argument.

“I … regretted so much editing and posting it online. It’s just… Josephine hit us, and Yvonne almost died because of her. She kept hurting people that matter to me, and I got so furious and upset. That was why I…‘

His heart softened at once.

He thought, “The video’s been shared in all Novo Tech’s chat groups. Now, Josephine’s notorious reputation has already spread across town.

“Lena’s young and innocent, and she did this on an impulse. I shouldn’t let this ruin her future.

“The damage has been done. Besides, Josephine indeed did so many unforgivable things. She ought to take the blame.”

After some thought, he said, “Josephine, you did something wrong first. You should apologize.”

Hearing this, Helena arched an eyebrow at Josephine complacently, saying with her eyes, “I won again.”

Glancing at her in contempt, Josephine walked toward Wilfred and poked his chest.

“Gee, Wilfred. Funny how I never realized just how unfair you could be.”

Suddenly, Wilfred was seized by an odd emotion, and he blurted out, “Josephine…”

Ignoring him, she walked toward her car.

After taking a few steps, she pulled out her phone from her pocket and saved the recording.

“An eye for an eye, guys.”

Her real purpose of calling the cops was to get Wilfred to come back and defend Helena. With his protection, Helena would surely own up to everything she had done.

The despicable duo indeed didn’t let her down.

That night, Patricia, Shane’s wife, had dinner with Josephine at Terra Bistro.

“Josie, I’m so sorry that I can’t be of help.”

Patricia looked at Josephine guiltily.
