Chapter 24 The Truth Revealedl
Lailah’s face darkened.
Although everyone dared not speak out loud now, those contemptuous glances were like daggers in the back.
She closed her eyes and said with a sob.

“As a mother, not caring about the child’s well–being but only wanting to blame the aunt that the child likes, you are really heartless!”
“Leo, it doesn’t matter if your mom isn’t here, Auntie will take you to the hospital, don’t be afraid!”
Ariella looked at Elena and asked, “Why hasn’t the doctor arrived yet?”
Every kindergarten is equipped with a healthcare doctor. It has been a long time since the incident happened, and they should have come to check the children’s health a long time ago.
“I came!” a doctor wearing a white coat and a mask emerged from the crowd.“I just performed a simple procedure on Leo, but Ms. Barrett doesn’t allow anyone to get close, so…”
Ariella’s gaze became even colder.
“Is this the way Ms. Barrett cares for children? Don’t you know that saving lives requires acting quickly?”
“From here to the hospital, it took at least fifteen minutes by car. Was Ms. Barrett trying to save lives or trying to delay
time?”
“Do you really care about the children?”
Lailah’s face turned red as she was being criticized.
The image of a “loving mother” that was just created a moment ago has completely disappeared.
“I was just thinking about getting Leo better treatment, don’t change the subject!”
Ariella sneered, “So why didn’t you let the nurse get close? Are you afraid she would find out what you did to the
child?”
Since she was accused of distorting the concept, wouldn’t it be a betrayal to herself if she didn’t do it?
Lailah was choked and rendered speechless.
The health doctor also quickly approached and examined Leonel again.
“The child was fine, just scared.”
Ariella finally let out a silent sigh of relief.
And at that moment, the police also arrived at the scene.
The surveillance footage was ready, so they took the parties involved to watch the video first.
Lailah held Leonel tightly all the way.
He lowered his voice and said.
“Leo, Auntie was so scared, luckily you are fine.”
“You were Auntie’s little sweetheart. Auntie always had your best interests at heart, she didn’t mean to go against your mother on purpose.”
“Leo wouldn’t blame Aunt, right?”
Leonel cried for a long time, and now his eyes are still very red.

Although he was in Lailah’s arms, he stared firmly in Ariella’s direction. At that moment, Ariella tightly held Raul’s hand.

Raul was bouncing and seemed very happy, still asking what it was.
Leonel clenched his little fist, his eyes becoming even redder.
In the past, Mom used to hold him like this and treat him so gently.
But now, they didn’t even look back at him.
Mom was so mean!
He was about to be infuriated!
He didn’t want this bad mother at all!
“Aunt.”
He did not answer Lailah’s words, but curled up in her arms like an injured little animal.
Lailah’s lips curved slightly.
A group of people entered the surveillance room, and the security guard had already set up the surveillance, allowing everyone to watch together.
And a copy of today’s surveillance footage was also made and submitted to the police.
The police nodded and motioned for him to play the video.
The video started with the wobbly play bridge activity.
The situation of everyone on the bridge was all in sight.
Lailah’s heart rose to her throat.
She looked at Jovan with a feigned weakness.
But at that moment, Jovan, surprisingly, didn’t look at her. Instead, he looked towards Ariella and Kaleb.
Even though the surveillance was about to reveal the truth.
Ariella still had no sign of panic, instead she was whispering something to Kaleb.
He was covered in ice chips all over his body, and the anger in his eyes was completely undisguised.
Lailah cautiously shook his sleeve.
Jovan finally came to his senses and turned his head to see her pitiful appearance.
He glanced at Ariella again.
In the end, he gently wrapped his arm around Lailah’s shoulder and said, “It’s okay, I’m here.”
Lailah bit her lip lightly, feeling an overwhelming sense of panic in her heart.
She always felt that this sentence did not come from his sincere heart.
Instead, he was deliberately picking a fight with someone.
No!
She couldn’t just sit and wait, she had to come up with a way to make Jovan love her again!
The video finally played until before Leonel fell into the water.

Ariella took two steps forward and stared at the screen.

During the wobbly play of bridge, the person at the back suddenly lost balance and fell forward towards the front. The crowd became so crowded that people were being squeezed.
And at that time, Jovan was holding Lailah in his arms, which caused Leonel to lose his grip and fall directly.
Ariella clenched her hands tightly, her gaze becoming somewhat fierce.
“Lailah, it seems I didn’t accuse you wrongly!”
She handed the phone to the police officer as she spoke.
“There is a video of me asking her about the details of her criminal activities, her defamation against me, and she has already admitted it.”

Lailah shook her head, “No, no, I didn’t, I wasn’t, I didn’t even stand firm at that time, and you were just behind us not far away, I…”
“Please come with us for a trip.”
After watching the video, the police solemnly requested Lailah to cooperate with the investigation.
Lailah’s words got stuck in her throat, and tears streamed down her face in frustration.
Suddenly, she lowered her gaze and looked at Leonel.
“Leo, I’m sorry. Auntie only wanted to protect you, but she made a mistake.”
“Aunt is going to leave for a while, you have to be good and follow dad.”
Leonel seemed to understand something in these two sentences, and suddenly he rushed over and hugged the police officer’s thigh.
“I didn’t want Aunt to be taken away, Aunt is not a bad person, it’s Mom who is bad, Mom doesn’t want me.”
Ariella gently closed her eyes.
Actually, until now she still cannot understand. She wholeheartedly raised Leonel, how could she have raised him wrong?
“Mom.”
Raul took her hand and said, “Mom, you were amazing. Mom, you won!”
Ariella slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Raul’s adoring gaze, tears filled her eyes.
She suddenly realized.
She should not have blamed herself for all the mistakes.
Since the decision was made to let go, one should look forward and not get stuck in the present.
Leonel’s crying grew louder and actually hindered the police investigation.
The police frowned and looked at Jovan, “Mr. Hensley, please take care of your children.”
Jovan had a headache from the noise, and he was even more upset because he had misunderstood Ariella just now.
He was just about to reach out and grab Leonel back when he heard Lailah’s sobbing.
Actually, at first I was too anxious, but later I realized that I had said the wrong thing and wanted to apologize to Ariella.
“But I didn’t expect Ariella to be so determined.”
“I was not afraid of being detained… Jovan, please do not interfere with me, otherwise it would affect your reputation.”
After this conversation, both openly and subtly accused Ariella of making a big deal out of things, causing Jovan to lose face.
Jovan’s pent–up anger instantly exploded.
“Ariella, are you satisfied?”
Ariella nodded, “I was very satisfied. Those who defamed me should
pay the price!”
The veins on Jovan’s forehead throbbed incessantly.
