Chapter 787 Are You Short of Money
"What? Freya?! How did Freya turn out to be the culprit?!"
At the shocked looks of the reporters, Douglas was very satisfied, "It's Freya! After Freddie bullied Fern, Freya came to find Fern!"
"Fern originally wanted to call the police, but Freya said that if she dared to call the police, she would have our whole family killed! Fern was afraid that my wife and I would be involved, so she chose to jump off the building by herself! If you don't believe me, you can ask Fern, she told me this after she woke up!"
After Douglas' words fell, the eyes of all the reporters at the scene fell on Fern in unison.
Fern shrank back nervously as she gave Douglas a quiet look, her eyes heavier with fear.
All the reporters felt that Fern would be so scared because Freddie had bullied her and cast a strong shadow on her young mind, did not feel at all that she was afraid of her father.
"I ......"
A struggle was written all over Fern's face as she dropped her little head and bit her lip, unwilling to continue talking.
The reporters, however, were not willing to let go of such a big story. This matter of Fern was very hot, and any casual write up was a breaking point, and now that Freya was involved, they of course would grab the chance.
"Fern, you don't have to be afraid, we're all here to help you."
A middle-aged female reporter standing at the front lovingly stroked her little head, "Bad people deserve to be punished, we won't let bad people bully you anymore."
Fern was not used to people being so close to her, she subconsciously had to avoid the female reporter's hand, shrank back into the wheelchair before she felt more secure.
"Fern, why don't you say anything?" Douglas's voice was soft to the extreme, but Fern was shaking, "Just now in the ward, didn't you tell me that you would jump to your death all because of Freya?!"
"I didn't ......"
The sound of the word "didn’t" was so small that no one heard it at all, and when she met Douglas's eerie eyes, Fern's body trembled even more, and she almost buried her head in her lap. After a long time, she uttered, “Yes, it was Freya who forced me to jump to my death."
"She - threatened me that she will kill my whole family, and I was afraid of dragging my mum and dad into it, and I - I jumped to my death."
"What?! It's really Freya! To threaten even such a small child is too shameless, isn't it?!"
"Yes, Freddie is bullying children like this, and even if she doesn't stop it, she's still helping him! This kind of scum is simply a cancer on society!"
"What's the difference between her kind of behavior and pimping? This behavior of hers is a crime!"
Listening to the increasingly unpleasant sounds on the television, Kiki simply turned off the television.
"Freya, don't listen to their nonsense! It must be Regina deliberately instructed Douglas to slander you!"
"I'm not sad, I just hope that Freddie can pull himself together and not affect the finals." Freya's eyebrows were subdued and calm as she turned the TV back on, "Kiki, you don't have to worry about me, I'm not that easily beaten."
Kiki did not say anything, she knew that after going through so many things, Freya had become stronger and stronger.
But even the strongest person has a fragile heart that breaks at the slightest touch. The stronger Freya acts, the more her heart aches.
To Freya's relief, there are quite a few people online who bash her, but there are also a portion of sensible netizens believe she is not that kind of person.
Although not many netizens left messages in support of her, Freya still felt very warm.
As long as there are people willing to believe in her, she is not alone.
Freddie was slandered, but his will did not sink. Gossip is able to completely ruin a person, but with Freya and Kiki accompanying him and cheering him on, he would not let his enemy hurt him.
The number of orders returned online is still growing rapidly at a rate visible to the naked eye, and more and more netizens are beginning to oppose Freddie's participation in the finals of the International Costume Design Competition.
Now that Kieran is almost well enough to recover from his injury, he is back on the jury.
The jury, with the addition of Daniel, now consists of five people.
With the exception of Fillip and Kieran, the judges all explicitly asked for Freddie to withdraw from the competition.
Even the three heavyweight judges had asked for this, and it was almost a foregone conclusion that Freddie would withdraw from the competition.
After all, the rules for the Grand Final are different from the previous games, which were all on a scoring system, but the Grand Final is a vote to decide who the winner will be.
Even if Freddie had cheekily made it to the final, the three judges had already stated that he lost, without any suspense. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
World is already in a storm now, if Freddie loses in the finals again, there will be no more chance for World!
When Freddie saw that the number of returned goods had reached two thousand, his heart felt guilty to the extreme, he looked at Freya and Kiki with embarrassment, "Freya, Kiki, I'm sorry, it's all my fault for causing us to suffer such a great loss."
"Freddie, you didn't do anything wrong, why should you say sorry?!" Freya said to him incomparably serious, "The person who should say sorry is not you, the person who set you up is the one who should say sorry!"
"Freddie, pull yourself together, we still have to win the grand final!" Kiki also cheered up Freddie, "Regina and Robin are trying to hurt us, right? I'd like to see who the person who can't even cry will be!"
After hearing Freya and Kiki's words, Freddie did not say anything more. He once thought that his life, plunged into the mud, would never see the light of day again, but it was the support and companionship of the two of them that made him understand that he was not alone.
He can't lose to the nasty and dirty!
Freya was just about to go to Fern's neighbourhood with Freddie and Kiki to have a look and make a side enquiry about their family relationship, but she received a call from Regina.
There was a clear note of smugness in Regina's voice, "Freya, are you very short of money right now?"
"How can you not be short of money when so many people are returning goods and asking for compensation! Freya, if you are short of money, I can help, after all, I will soon be married to Simon, we are both daughters-in-law of the Fitzgerald family, it is right to help each other."
"And yeah, don't feel bad that your team won't be able to compete in the finals! We're all family, it is the same whoever between us wins!"
Thinking that Regina was carrying Kieran's child inside her belly, Freya's heart choked, but she still said indifferently, "Regina, you're thinking too much, you can't really win the finals!"
"Ha!" Regina sneered disdainfully, "Oh yes, Freya, let me kindly remind you one more time that your dirty deeds with Freddie are against the law!"
As soon as Regina's words left her mouth, the door to the studio was pushed open and several police officers walked in with cold faces.
"Are Freya and Freddie here? We suspect you of maliciously harming children, please go back to the police station and cooperate with the investigation!"
