Chapter 170
Chapter 170:
Annabel ignored Cathy, but Cathy grabbed her hand.
“What are you doing?” Annabel frowned.
“Annabel, you’re a murderer!” Cathy shouted, lips curling in accusation.
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Annabel snapped, giving Cathy a shove.
Cathy fell to the ground. “I saw you push Nina into the lake, and now you push me. Do you want to kill the witness p>
Her words left Annabel confused.
When had she ever pushed Nina into the lake? Nina had been the one to try to push her.
Obviously, Cathy was trying to frame her again.
Feeling slightly annoyed, Annabel looked down at Cathy as if she were gazing at an idiot. “Are you blind, Cathy p>
Then she ignored Cathy and walked straight ahead.
On the lake, the once struggling Nina was nowhere to be seen.
“Don’t just stand there, Anakin! Catch that murderer. Don’t let her get away!” Cathy scrambled to her feet and glared at the man beside her.
Anakin was her die-hard admirer. Cathy had brought him here so he would deal with Annabel on her behalf.
He was just a tool in her hands.
Anakin practically worshipped the ground Cathy walked on. He was ready to do anything just to make her happy. As soon as he heard her order, he nodded and rushed toward Annabel, blocking her path. “Annabel, where do you think you’re going after killing someone p>
Annabel was taken aback by his words. She looked toward the lake with a frown and said, “I didn’t kill anyone. Go save Nina. She can still be saved. If you keep blocking my way, she will drown. Then who will be the murderer p>
The authority in her voice startled Anakin. When he saw the fire in her eyes, he subconsciously stepped aside.

Cathy quickly pulled him back to his senses. “Anakin, don’t listen to her. We both saw her push Nina into the lake. Even if Nina ends up dying because we didn’t save her, Annabel is still the murderer. Don’t let her escape. I’ll call the cops now p>
Anakin immediately turned foolish again. “Don’t worry, Cathy. She won’t get away while I’m here p>
Nodding in satisfaction, Cathy picked up her phone and called the police. “Hello? Someone was pushed into the water. The culprit is trying to run away. Yes, it happened at Lover Lake. Please come quickly p>
Annabel’s face turned cold. Nina was drowning, yet Cathy was stopping her from saving her. And now, instead of calling for medical help, she had called the police. What was she up to?
“The police are on their way, Annabel. You won’t get off scot-free!” A vicious light flashed in Cathy’s eyes.
It did not matter to her whether Nina drowned, as long as she could bring Annabel down today.
If Nina survived, Annabel would at most be charged with intentional assault. But if Nina died, Annabel would be labeled a murderer.
