Being Pushed by My Father to be A Scapegoat

The police and reporters arrived together, and many onlookers also rushed to the zoo.

Ivy ran up to the police and admitted her mistake, saying similar things as before.

The police asked, “So, the only mistake you're referring to is that you were too scared to go in and save people?”

Ivy choked up and didn't answer immediately.

At this moment, my dad pulled me forward.

“Officer, I am the curator here. I witnessed everything!"

He pushed me to the camera as he said firmly, “It was my daughter, Lilian, who mistakenly let two visitors disguised as staff members in. And it was because she was afraid that she didn't rush to stop the panda in time, resulting in injuries. Ivy is just a newcomer who knows nothing and was scared.”

The police frowned as they listened to these words, and when they looked at me, their eyes were filled with obvious anger.

Although the reporters couldn't come in, my father's voice was loud enough to be heard outside.

The discussion followed. “Isn't Lilian a senior keeper? How could she make such a low-level mistake?”

“The survivor said he was saved by Lilian. If she didn't make a mistake, why would she risk her life to save him?”

“Even Lilian’s biological father identified her, so it must be her fault!”

The rumors spread like this in my previous life, causing the whole society to identify me as the murder.

And Ivy was just an innocent new keeper who got implicated.

Everyone thought that I caused her to suffer psychological trauma right after she started working, and that I should compensate her for mental damages.

The court did not sentence me to penalty, and Ivy also did not sue me.

But my father took the initiative to stand up and said he would compensate Ivy for me, giving her a set of house that originally belonged to me!

The police said to me seriously, “Lilian Collins, please come with us to cooperate with the investigation!”

I took out my phone and responded loudly to their questioning, "Yes, there was a power outage tonight, but my phone battery is fully charged. At the time of the incident, I was fixing it in one place to record a video for Eva. By watching the video, you can see everything clearly!”

Before the police could ask to see it, I posted the video on the Tiktok.

Afterwards, I handed it over to the police.
