The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet) -
Chapter 363 She Pushed Emani
With a resounding slosh, the lake water splashed in all directions from the impact.
"Emani!" Janet was wholly taken aback by the unexpected incident.
The fans and reporters around were all flabbergasted by what they had just witnessed.
"What happened?!"
"Everything was fine a moment ago! What happened?"
Emani screamed and thrashed about in the water as she bellowed for help. "Help! Somebody help! Please! Help me!"
Several of her die-hard fans immediately rushed over and jumped into the lake without a second's hesitation. They managed to grab hold of her by her arms and swim back to shore with her safely in tow.
The crowd surged forward and surrounded them. One of the fans shouted with anxious urgency, "Call an ambulance! Stop! Stop shooting!" Meanwhile, Laney sneered from the spot where she had remained seated. These people were really making a disproportionate deal of this.
For crying out loud, it was a man-made lake. It was actually very shallow and people really couldn't drown in it. Further, Emani was over 5.5 ft tall. If she stood up, the water may not have been able to submerge her.
However, had been bitterly cold for the last few days. It had snowed a few days ago and the temperature was still around zero degrees Celsius. Because of this, it had really been a traumatic ordeal for Emani. When Emani's fans took her to the shore, she was soaked to the bone. She was shivering with cold, and her face was pale. Her long, usually voluptuous and curly hair was plastered flat against her face. Her makeup was ruined, and she looked utterly haggard and miserable.
"What happened?" Hearing the noise, Emani's assistant and the other crew members rushed over. The assistant quickly wrapped her with a blanket and asked anxiously, "Miss Gomez, what happened? How did you fall into the lake all of a sudden?"
Emani drew the blanket tightly around herself and trembled, as if she was still in a state of shock. She kept shaking her head, and then looked through the crowd at Janet, who was standing beside the lake. Emani looked hesitant, as if she wanted to say something but decided it best to keep mum.
Someone in the crowd pointed at Janet and said, "That woman pushed Emani on purpose!"
Emani's assistant also turned to look at Janet. Emani's fans and the reporters also looked at her.
After a few seconds, Emani said with an unnatural, slightly wry smile, "I am fine now. Don't gather here. I should get back to work now. There's still a lot of work to be covered later. Don't let me slow you down." Her assistant rolled her eyes at Janet and pulled Emani to her feet carefully.
Emani's fans glowered at Janet with deep-seated contempt.
"You are so raw! You didn't even offer an apology."
"Everyone saw it clearly. She pushed Emani."
"Well, Emani is too kind-hearted. She decided to let it slide. We don't want to get Emani in trouble." "She did it just because she knew Emani wouldn't fight back!"
The crowd all whispered under their breath and left the lake area behind Emani.
Watching them leave, Janet felt a little unsettled. "Let's go back too," Laney said, holding her arm and walking with her when she noticed how awkward she looked. "Don't think too much of it. I know you didn't push her. "
"But they all think I did it." Janet felt wronged.
She had the feeling that it hadn't been an accident at all and that Emani purposely threw herself into the water of her own volition.
Emani didn't get along with Janet. In all likelihood, Emani did this to set her up and cast her in a bad light.
