Chapter 1427: Chapter 1427: Make Her Carry the Black Pot Chapter 1427: Chapter 1427: Make Her Carry the Black Pot Fiona Reiser gasped in pain as her mother looked at her daughter in distress, tears pouring down like rain, “Fiona, don’t scare me like that!”

Todd Reiser quickly recovered from his shock and stepped in to confront the assailant, “Who are you? Why did you hurt my sister?”

The scene was chaotic, and Expert Agnes hurriedly yelled, “Call a doctor!”

A few doctors had been arranged at the venue in case of emergencies, so as soon as Expert Agnes spoke, the doctors rushed over.

There wasn’t much water in the bottle, but every drop fell on Fiona’s hand, causing numerous blisters to form, and her fingers were so stiff that she couldn’t move them.

As the doctor cleaned her wound, her tears flowed uncontrollably, eliciting sympathy from the onlookers.

“The competition is about to start, and now Miss Reiser got scalded? Who is the man behind the attack?”

“How coincidental! The attack happened just now, how can the competition continue?”

“Miss Evans merely injured her right hand, at least she can still use her left hand. But Miss Reiser’s both hands were scalded, and the injury is severe. There’s no way she can compete! Does that mean Miss Evans wins by default?”

“Something’s not right! Could it be that Miss Reiser’s hands were… ”

The crowd’s suspicious gazes all turned to Xaviera Evans.

Fiona, her forehead covered in sweat from the pain, felt vindicated when she heard the crowd’s whispers, as she intended for everyone to doubt Xaviera.

Looking indifferent, Xaviera slowly raised her eyes to meet Fiona’s gaze, marveling at the woman’s viciousness to even endure the agony of a burn.

By this point, Todd had pinned the attacker to the ground, “Speak up! Who are you and why did you scald Fiona?”

The man’s face was distorted under the pressure, “I… I didn’t do it on purpose! It might be because the lid wasn’t closed properly that Miss Reiser got scalded.”

“You’re lying! Why did you rush to the stage for no reason? And you just happened to pour a cup of boiling water on Fiona’s hand, you did it on purpose!”

Seeing the swelling on Fiona’s hands, Todd was filled with rage, his eyes almost bursting with fury, “Who sent you to do this!”

Everyone had suspicions in their hearts, that Xaviera must have instructed the man to scald Miss Reiser’s hands.

“No… nobody told me what to do.” The man answered frantically, but his behavior only aroused more suspicion from the crowd.

Wayne Reiser waved his hand, “Todd, asking him won’t get us anywhere. Just call the police! Since he injured Fiona, he must pay for it!”

Upon hearing that the police would be called, the man’s face changed instantly, “Don’t… don’t call the police! I…”

“Todd! Call the police now!” Wayne Reiser said coldly.

Seizing the opportunity while Todd grabbed his phone, the man struggled to sit up and knelt before Wayne Reiser, trembling with fear, “Please, don’t call the police, I didn’t want to hurt Miss Reiser, but…”

The crowd pricked up their ears as they heard this.

The man knelt on the ground, his nose running and his face pitiful. After a moment, he suddenly turned around and shouted tearfully, “Miss Evans! You have to save me! You didn’t tell me they’d call the police when you hired me! I have a child at home, I can’t go to jail!”

Hiss—-

The crowd gasped in shock and disbelief, but some saw it coming after all – the one who orchestrated the attack was Xaviera Evans!

Xaviera looked at him calmly, “I don’t know you.”

Now she understood – not only did Fiona want to use the burn as an excuse to avoid the competition, she also wanted to pin the blame on her!

Wayne Reiser glanced at Xaviera and ordered, “Call the police!”

“No!” The man cried out frantically, and then his eyes filled with resentment, “Miss Evans, if you won’t help me, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Getting up from the ground, the man pulled out his phone and showed everyone a transaction screen, “This is the reward Miss Evans gave me!”

Those close enough saw the transfer amount of fifty thousand dollars and that the sender was Xaviera. The crowd’s gaze towards Xaviera was once again filled with contempt.

Fiona’s eyes widened in disbelief, filled with astonishment and sadness.

“It’s really her?” The shocked crowd wondered.

“What a vicious heart!”

Todd shot a ferocious glare at Xaviera. He knew she was Caleb Mamet’s wife, so he had always treated her as a friend, but now this woman had maliciously harmed Fiona in such a vile manner.
