Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)
Chapter 406

Chapter 406 A Shift in Management

Daryl and Amelia basically tucked tails and ran away. Meanwhile, I returned to my ward with Jill's help. I was already feeling dizzy.

After I got my injection, I felt slightly better. Jill gave me a troubled look and asked, "How about you just go overseas? It's not that safe in Pyrosia anymore. I've stationed so many bodyguards downstairs. How is it that Daryl and Amelia weren't stopped?" I giggled. "They'll replace a way to sneak in if that's what they want to do. How are your guys supposed to stop people from visiting patients in a hospital?"

Jill had given me a lot of help. I'd only be in a much trickier situation if I was transferred to another hospital.

She rubbed my arm. "Where's the good luck charm Julian and the others got for you? Why don't you wear it?"

I giggled and said nothing. The charm was supposed to help my love life. It was better for me to forget about it.

Jill wanted to say something, but I hurriedly cut her off, "I need you to do me a favor. I left some videos with Emma. Help me post them."

I had no idea who called Daryl earlier. Judging by the panicked look on his face, however, something was about to happen. He could forget about being a police officer after his words 'earlier were broadcast live.

However, that was far from enough. I couldn't allow the netizens to slander me anymore. I didn't want people to think that I had the kind of power to cover up the truth.

Jill contacted her friends working in the media company on the same night. She sent out all the videos concerning Daryl, including the private conversation he had with me in my ward and the numerous occasions when he blocked me at the hospital.

The post also contained a full detail about the love-hate history between him and Lily. Their former classmates knew about the two, and some of them actually came forward and verified

It seemed like Daryl once got into a fight for Lily's sake, and it almost went into his permanent record. However, she came to think that he was both financially poor and sucked in his studies. Simply put, he didn't really have a bright future ahead of him. That was why they broke up.

I couldn't be bothered to think about the relationship between Daryl and Lily. It would be best if he didn't stir up trouble for me again.

By the time Penelope came over, Daryl was no longer with her. "Don't worry, Eva. Daryl has been suspended from duty, and he's currently being investigated. If the allegations on the

internet are found to be true, he'll receive due punishment."

I didn't say anything. In fact, I had no idea what could be said. There was no doubt that Penelope was fair and just; but she also intended to defend her colleague as well.

The Crowe family was probably undergoing immense pressure now that there was one such troublemaker in the police department that her dad was overseeing.

Penelope sighed gently once more when she realized I wasn't talking.

"Amelia's lawsuit was dismissed by the court. She didn't have enough evidence to file the case. We've also conducted an investigation and confirmed that you didn't push her back then. You'll no longer be bothered by this case anymore." "I appreciate it." I had no idea what else to say.

Penelope proceeded to ask me several routine questions before she left with her fellow police officers. Before she walked out of my ward, she looked at me.

"You recorded the videos a long time ago, Eva. Why didn't you just give them to me?"

I raised my head and looked at her pursed lips. I was at quite a loss for words. It wasn't as if I didn't trust her, but what could she have done even if I had given them to her?

I hesitated to believe that the police department would release these videos and clear my name. Their ineffectual announcement would convince no one. In fact, the netizens might've thought that I blackmailed the police department. "Alright then." Penelope felt a little disappointed and closed the door. I didn't explain anything to her.

My video evidence and Bernard's livestream had all but ruined Harmon Group. After all, Amelia was Leonard's girlfriend, and she gave birth to his son.

Someone reposted what Amelia said in the livestream as well as the love triangle between her, me, and Leonard. Harmon Group's share price suffered the worst as a result.

When Emma visited me, there were dark circles beneath her eyes. She kept sighing. "Harmon Group has been completely thrown into disarray. Leonard and Luca each have their own supporters. I think there's going to be a shift in management.".
