Unexpected Love: The Chief Auctioneer's Decision Chapter 76: Damien Lancaster: Where’s the Evidence?

Ivy Sumrs returned to the cabin to look for her phone. She searched the entire area, but she didn’t see her phone.

It might have flown out just now during her scuffle with Rachel Shaw.

A chill rose in Ivy Sumrs’ heart.

Rachel Shaw was being examined by the doctor, and she looked at Ivy Sumrs, holding her breath.

She was extrely tense, even though her head was splitting, she didn’t dare to faint.

Not until she saw Ivy Sumrs producing nothing did she continue, "Damien, I don’t know why Ivy hates so much. She wants dead..."

Rachel Shaw leaned against Damien Lancaster, tears of pain flowing, her pale face full of fear of Ivy Sumrs.

She looked pitiful like this.

"Just because of Sophie, Ivy, how many tis do you want to explain before you’re willing to believe I really didn’t harm Sophie? What do I have to do for you to let go? This morning you wanted to kill , and at my house again tonight, now... Damien, I’m really scared..."

Originally, Damien Lancaster didn’t believe it.

But he suddenly thought back to the scene from this morning and at the Shaw Family’s house, where Ivy Sumrs dared to make a move on Rachel Shaw in front of him.

What might she be doing behind his back?

Damien Lancaster’s face turned grim, "You won’t be satisfied until you’ve killed her, is that it?"

He didn’t give her a chance to explain. This sentence had already pronounced her guilty.

Ivy Sumrs suddenly felt deeply saddened; she accepted what she had done.

But she would never admit to things she hadn’t done.

"Let say it again, I didn’t push her. Killing is punishable by law; I still want to live. It was all her plan; she calculated that you would bring along when you heard she was missing. When I arrived here, she pulled onto the Ferris wheel, and she wanted to push off to kill ."

Ivy Sumrs explained very clearly.

Rachel Shaw sobbed quietly in Damien Lancaster’s arms, sad beyond compare: "Ivy, you misunderstood ; even if you wanted to harm , I accepted it, but why do you still want to slander ?"

Rachel Shaw choked on her words, as if unable to continue due to distress, closed her eyes, tears streaming down her beautiful face.

Watching her, Ivy Sumrs thought to herself that she could never learn such a series of acts from Rachel Shaw.

She wanted to say sothing, but heard Damien Lancaster ask, "You say she wanted to push you down to kill you, then why weren’t you the one who fell?"

This question landed a heavy blow on Ivy Sumrs’ already shattered heart.

Damien Lancaster had completely believed Rachel Shaw’s words, which was why he questioned her like this.

"That’s because I struggled desperately, and she got what she deserved, falling out of the cabin. And if I hadn’t saved her, she’d be dead now."

"You saved her? All I saw was that you let go of her hand in mid-air."

He wasn’t clear on what happened inside the cabin.

But he did truly witness Ivy Sumrs letting go of Rachel Shaw’s hand in the air.

Ivy Sumrs was at a loss for words. At this mont, any explanation to him was futile because he didn’t believe what she said at all.

No matter what she said, it would just be seen as a defense in his eyes.

Ivy Sumrs bit her lip and nodded, thinking there was no need to say anything more. Let him think what he wants; she didn’t want to explain any longer.

Talking to him always left her feeling disappointed, aggrieved, and miserable.

Ivy Sumrs turned to leave.

Damien Lancaster stood up and quickly caught up with Ivy Sumrs, grabbing her. But because Mr. Shaw and Mrs. Shaw arrived and the doctor was eager to get Rachel Shaw to the hospital,

Damien Lancaster let her go for the ti being.

From the look in Damien Lancaster’s eyes, he wasn’t planning to let this go easily.

Back at the hotel, Ivy Sumrs imdiately walked into the room and briskly grabbed the two kids.

The two little ones were worried about Ivy Sumrs, but seeing her return looking strange and in a hurry, it felt like they were about to escape a disaster.

"Mommy, what are you doing?" Nathan frowned, looking worriedly at Ivy Sumrs.

"Nathan and Leo, Mommy’s booked a new room for you both. You’ll sleep there."

"Why? Can’t we sleep here?"

They could, but seeing how Damien Lancaster acted just now, he might still co looking for her.

She had to be prepared.

"Listen to Mommy. Mommy will have sothing to deal with later. You both just sleep well in the room."

Ivy Sumrs led Nathan and Leo to another room.

Nathan and Leo didn’t know why Ivy was doing this, but they were clever enough to notice her strange expression. Sothing must have happened while they were out.

Once the door was closed, Ivy Sumrs returned to the original room.

Soon enough, Damien Lancaster indeed ca.

Standing at the door, he coldly said to Ivy Sumrs, "Open the door."

From these two words alone, Ivy Sumrs sensed his anger.

She took a deep breath at the door, opened it, and Damien Lancaster’s face was terrifyingly grim.

"Damien Lancaster, what will it take for you to trust ? I didn’t push her. It was just the two of us in that cabin. If she had really died, could I have escaped? Do you think I would be so stupid to harm her and ruin myself?"

"Did you speak the truth?" Damien Lancaster asked coldly, "You pushed her out of the cabin, and she didn’t fall imdiately. You were afraid she’d really die, that you couldn’t escape the law, so you saved her. But you didn’t want her to have it easy, so when she was seven or eight ters from the ground, you deliberately let go of her hand, causing her to get hurt."

Ivy Sumrs was stunned, "Why can you twist every explanation I give into sothing so malicious?"

"Because you, Ivy Sumrs, what you do is simply malicious. Since you ca back, how many tis have you bullied her? Can you even count it?"

"Malicious?!" Ivy Sumrs thought she’d never again feel hurt by Damien Lancaster’s words, but hearing these three words, she still felt suffocated.

"What about Rachel Shaw? How does she appear to you? Gentle? Harmless? Kind? Frail?"

Damien Lancaster looked at her with deep-set eyes, not speaking for a long ti, yet those dark, deep eyes seed to speak volus.

Reaching out, Damien Lancaster grabbed her wrist, "Co with ."

"Where? To apologize to your gentle, harmless, kind, frail sweetheart?"

"Don’t you think you need to apologize? Ivy Sumrs, Rachel and the Shaws have been more than generous with you."

"Generous?" Ivy Sumrs’ eyes reddened, "Damien Lancaster, do you even know what they’ve done behind your back? This morning, Rachel Shaw held a knife to Sophie, demanding I kneel and apologize to her. This evening, the Shaws ca to my house to start a fire and smash things. Without their provocation, how could I have fought back? Why should I apologize to them?"

Damien Lancaster’s eyes turned cold, evidently unaware of these things. Now hearing it from Ivy Sumrs, there was doubt in his eyes.

"There are many things that if you investigate, you’ll find what I’m saying is the truth. Why won’t you investigate?"

Ivy Sumrs shook off his hand, shouting at him:

"We haven’t divorced yet; for your wife, why can’t you at least trust a little? Why do you always side with others?

You asked why I wanted to divorce so much before. Damien Lancaster, look at now; that’s the answer. Because I’m in so much pain being with you, I have to endure so much malice, so much injustice. Do you know how hard it is for ?"
