Chapter 1047

Charles also thought that what Louis suggested made sense.

‘A clean hand needs no washing. Handing this matter over to the police and letting them look into and
solve the case is the best thing that we can do now.’

In the evening, Ryleigh sat on the bed with her knees bent inward, not wanting to eat anything for dinner.
Louis made dinner, pushed open the bedroom door, walked to the edge of the bed, and picked her up.

Ryleigh wrapped her arms around his neck and said softly, “I don’t have the appetite to eat.”

He carried her to the dining table. “Even if you don’t have an appetite, at least eat some. I don’t want you
to starve in the middle of the night.

Ryleigh jerked him. “Am I going to get fired?”

Louis rubbed the top of her head and leaned over to kiss her forehead. “No, I have already handed the
matter over to the police for further investigation.”

Ryleigh was astonished. “You handed it over to the police?”

Louis fetched her a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her. “The police’s investigation findings will
always be the most convincing evidence. We’ll get to shut the mouths of all those people as long as the
police can prove your innocence.” Ryleigh bit her lip and lowered her head.” Am I too weak?”

Louis stroked her cheek. “You’re not weak, but very strong instead.”

“Don’t make fun of me.” Ryleigh turned her face away and said with a pouty mouth, “I always don’t know
what to do when 1 encounter such matters. If only I could be like Zee.”



Louis chuckled, turned her head toward him, and made her look directly at him.” There’s no need for you
to do too well. I’d rather you hide behind me forever.”

Ryleigh flung his hand away and said seriously, “No, I can’t be a pushover all the time. I want to go and
see

Jodie tomorrow.”

Louis could not win against her in the argument, so he had no choice but to compromise.

The next day, Ryleigh went to the hospital. Jodie smirked when she saw her in the ward. “I heard that
you’ve been suspended.” Ryleigh did not say anything.





Jodie leaned against the head of the bed, and a glimmer of pride flashed across her eyes. “I told you
earlier that all people sympathize with the weak. I’m the victim of this incident, and you, Ryleigh Hill, are
the perpetrator in the eyes of the public.”

Ryleigh stared at her. “So, are you satisfied now?”

“How can I be satisfied with just this?” Jodie sneered. “You’ve only got suspended. If it weren’t for Louis,
you would have been fired from the academy long ago.”

Ryleigh lowered her head. “Will it do you any good for you to drive me out of the academy?”

“Will it do me any good?” Jodie said with a chuckle, “As long as I get to chase you, the eyesore of my
life, out of the academy, it’ll do me all kind of good. Not to mention that I’ll make you suffer by making you
into public enemy No. 1.”





Ryleigh smiled and looked up at her. “I’m sorry, but I’m afraid that I’ll have to disappoint you.”

Jodie was slightly stunned, only to see Louis appearing at the door all of a sudden. He coldly showed her
the voice recording that he had on his cell phone, and she could not help but tremble from head to toe.
“You!”

Ryleigh stood with her arms akimbo and snorted. “What kind of double standard is that? You’re okay with
you framing me, but I can’t do the same to you? Jodie Smalls, let me tell you this, you’re the one who
brought all these upon yourself. You deserve it. And don’t take the public as fools. There’s always
something to hate in everyone.

Ryleigh walked out of the ward, thought of something, and stopped at the door for a split second but did
not look back. “By the way, we’ve handed this matter over to the police. So good luck, Ms. Victim.”

Jodie’s face gradually turned pale, and she yelled hysterically as she broke down and swept all the
medicine bottles off the table.

Louis submitted the recording to the police, together with Jodie’s diagnosis. After the investigation, the
injuries recorded in the diagnosis could not be confirmed as being caused by getting pushed down the
stairs as there would be a slight difference in the severity of the injuries.
