C102 The Truth of the Broken Leg.

"What do you mean we aren't suitable for each other? If you're not suitable for me, why don't you come to see your parents? Why don't you pick a date with me?"

When Lydia followed him, the man was grabbing a woman and questioning her angrily.

After all, he didn't dare to get too close to her, so he could only vaguely see the woman's back.

She narrowed her eyes. Although she couldn't see too much, she felt that the clothes she was wearing looked very familiar.

"Tilman, I'm sorry."

Just as Lydia was puzzled, the woman suddenly opened her mouth.

Lydia was stunned. She clenched her fists tightly.

The voice was...

Josie!

Why was Josie with the murderer who had injured her left leg?

Was it a coincidence or... Did Josie also participate in that incident?

"I just didn't know how to reject you. I didn't like you, so I wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell you, but..."

Josie pursed her lips and pretended to be unable to bear to hurt Tilman. "But I didn't expect to hurt you in the end."

"I'm sorry, Tilman. It's all my fault."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Josie choked as she spoke, and the anger in Tilman's eyes instantly decreased by half.

"Josie, what I want is not your apology. I want you to break up with that brat. It doesn't matter how you hurt me, but you and that scumbag can't hurt my sister like this!"

"Tilman, I... did not want to hurt Anne." Josie bit her lip. She had already lost her backup, and she could not afford to lose Freddy, the most advantageous backup.

She looked up at Tilman with tears in her eyes. "Tilman, I don't love Anne anymore. I love him with all my heart."

At this moment, Lydia, who was behind the tree, instantly understood their relationship through their conversation.

She knew who this man was. It turned out that he was Anne's stupid elder brother.

Tilman.

Although the two of them had never interacted with each other before, they had only heard about each other from their friends in the past because of Josie.

It was said that Tilman had been secretly in love with Josie since high school, but at that time, Josie had always been indifferent to him.

However, it seemed that their relationship had progressed.

She guessed that it was probably because Reece had neglected the Woodward family that Josie had started looking for a suitable noble young master to help her find a way out. This was why she was willing to pay attention to the Su family, which had risen in the Goulcrest in the past two years.

In order to have more choices, Josie was flirting with Tilman while interacting with Freddy.

Whether it was the Woodward family or the Cooper family, as long as she successfully married them, she would be able to live a life of luxury and wealth without any pressure.

One had to admit that Josie was really calculating.

Lydia looked at Josie coldly. She felt a wave of disgust in her heart. Since she already knew the man's identity and her goal was achieved, she didn't want to watch the drama anymore.

Even if she looked at him for a second longer, she would feel disgusted.

She retracted her gaze and turned around to leave.

"Josie, I'm warning you. If you dare to bully my sister with that bastard, do you believe that I will make the filthy things you did to Lydia public?!"

Suddenly, Tilman's voice sounded from behind him.

When she heard him mention her name, she froze.

She never thought that she would actually hear something about her.

Curious, she turned her head around and looked at the two people not far away.

Josie was clearly shocked and frightened. Her pale face was filled with all kinds of emotions, but in the end, all of them turned into tears.

"Tilman, don't be impulsive. That incident in the past won't benefit you or me."

"I don't care. As long as you dare to bully my sister, I'll do anything!" Tilman snorted, his eyes filled with disdain.

Tilman really loved Josie, but he was also a sister-con.

If anyone dared to bully his sister, he would definitely fight them to the death!

Although Tilman was angry, Josie was still afraid.

Because she knew that this man, Tilman, would do anything for the sake of his passion.

If that incident was really made public, it would definitely be a fatal thing for her.

However, despite her fear, Josie straightened her back and smiled coldly, "Threatening me? Heh, Tilman, do you think I'm scared?"

"Back then, it was you who drove and hit Lydia, and you were the one who broke her legs with your own hands. Even if the truth was exposed, you were the one who got sent to jail! What does that have to do with me?"

Seeing Josie’s pitiful appearance, she was truly frightened.

If not for this leather bag, Tilman would not have recognized the woman in front of him.

This woman was truly unforgiving!

Tilman was not the only one shocked. Even Lydia, who was hiding in the distance, was shocked.

Hearing this, her pupils suddenly widened and her mind went blank.

What was going on?

Wasn't it Reece who arranged for the incident back then?

How did it turn out to be Josie?

At this point, Lydia was in a mess.

She could not remember the exact relationship between them.

She forced herself to calm down and continue listening, because she was too serious that she did not even notice Reece walking over from behind.

"Back then, you were the one who cried in front of me and accused me of bullying you. It was also you who told me about her schedule that day!"

However, Josie snorted in disdain, "I did come to you to cry, but did I say that you had to break her legs?"

"You...!!!" Tilman's face turned pale. Indeed, Josie did not say that.

Josie had only cried so fiercely in front of him at that time. It was only because of his heartache that he had vented his anger on her.

Thinking about it now, he was just used by Josie.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Tilman clenched his fists so tightly that his bones creaked. "You... You actually used me!"

"So what if I used you? You were the one who didn't have a brain. The moment I cried, you said that you would teach me a lesson for me!" Now that they had shed all pretense of cordiality, Josie no longer hid the disdain in her eyes. "If you want to blame someone, then blame yourself for not having a brain!"

"So, if you tell me what happened back then, not only will you be unable to do anything to me, you will even be sent to jail. The Su family will completely disappear from Goulcrest!"

"Idiot! Do you want to think about it? Hmph!" Josie snorted and turned around proudly to leave.

At this moment, Lydia, who had heard the whole story, had her eyes reddened. She clenched her fists tightly.

She never would have dreamed that the accident was not arranged by Reece.

It turned out that she had been deceived by Josie and misunderstood Reece.

It turned out that the mastermind behind the accident was actually Josie!

How could she possibly accept the fact that a person who had manipulated them together was still so arrogant and proud?

Seeing Josie walking towards her, Lydia's scarlet eyes suddenly narrowed. Her eyes were filled with endless resentment and coldness.

As a result of her anger, her hands could not help but tremble.

"Calm down," Reece said as he wrapped his warm palm around her fists.

The warmth of his hand made her tremble.

She looked up at the man who had suddenly appeared beside her. Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

Calm down?

It was easy to say, but it was hard to do.

Heavens knew how she had endured the pain of her broken bones. Heavens knew how much pain she had endured every time she stood in the rain for a long time.

Heavens knew how many times she had bitten her lips until they were bleeding, and how much she had cried.

All of these things were still vivid in her mind, but she had to watch as a woman who had schemed against her walked away from her.

No!

She, Lydia, could not do it!

Lydia struggled free from the man's palm and walked out from behind the tree. She suddenly stood in front of Josie.

"An... Lydia!!!" Seeing Lydia, the corner of Josie's mouth suddenly stiffened, and her heart skipped a beat. Then, she started to panic.

Why did she suddenly appear?

Did she hear what she and Tilman had just said?

Josie stared at the dark-faced woman, feeling uneasy. However, she still held on to her hope.

Josie forced a smile and said, "Lydia, what a coincidence that we meet again. Are you going to... Ah!"

Before Josie could finish her sentence, Lydia gave her a cold slap.

Josie screamed out in pain, and a trace of gloominess flashed in her eyes. "Lydia, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing?" Lydia smiled coldly. She lifted her leg and kicked Josie on her left leg. "Now, I'm asking you, what have you done to me?"

Josie fell to the ground without any warning.

Josie understood what had happened the moment she saw the slap.

Lydia had heard everything that happened between her and Tilman just now.

Suddenly, Josie turned pale.

"Lydia, listen to my explanation. Back then, I was indeed dissatisfied with you, but I really didn't order Tilman to break your legs. It was all that idiot's fault!"

Josie hugged Lydia's left leg and wailed as tears streamed down her cheeks. Her words had completely cleared her name.

Lydia stared coldly at Josie, who was under her feet. She frowned and reached out her hand to pinch Josie’s chin. She said word by word, "If you didn't deliberately instigate it, would you have done it?"

Lydia looked down on Josie. Her aura had been completely released!

Josie's face turned pale. Her hair stood on end as she stared at her sister. Her eyes were filled with hatred and resentment. Her scalp tingled, and her back stiffened. Her forehead was covered in cold sweat.

"Lydia, I..."

"You don't deserve to call me sister!" Josie tried to argue. Lydia interrupted her. "Josie, I don't want to make things difficult for you. Let's just settle this in private."

"What's wrong?"

Lydia's lips curled into a smile, and her gaze turned cold. "You broke my leg, so of course I have to take yours. Isn't that fair?"

Josie turned pale and panicked.
