Ted felt there was something wrong. He knew how capable his son was. Since Joshua had said so, he had sheer proof.
Sure enough, Joshua clapped his hands, and several men were brought in. Mandy instantly turned pale at the sight of them.
The men were none other than the people who slept with her in the video!
Joshua actually found them?
Mandy felt cold and despairing in her heart. She waited all night, but no one came to save her. She knew she had been abandoned, but she didn't forget how much she hated Hazel, so she thought all night carefully and came up with the idea of shifting the blame onto Hazel.
But Joshua took the men to confront! Wouldn't her lies be exposed if they confronted her face-to-face?
The men saw Mandy, too. They wanted to say hello to her, but the situation didn't seem proper, so they just looked at Mandy and didn't dare say a word.
"Take off your clothes," Joshua said to these men.
Strange though his request might sound, the men only murmured a few complaints and then obediently took off their clothes.
After that, Joshua took out some photos and put them in front of Ted.
"These are some screenshots of the men in the video, and I made the photos," Joshua said, pointing to a man and one of the photos. "This man has a tattoo here. Compared to the tattoo in the photo, it can prove that he is the man in the video."
"... Enough. I knew they were the people in the video," Ted interrupted Joshua, helpless.
"Come over here." Simon beckoned his subordinates to bring the men over. Mandy was also taken near Hazel.
Simon directly asked, "Take a closer look. Who did you have s.e.x with?"
The few men look at Hazel and Mandy. They were surprised to see two women who looked so alike. But when they saw Hazel's big belly, they looked away without hesitation.
Although the two women looked alike at first glance, when they stood together, their differences became instantly obvious.
After getting pregnant, Hazel was so quiet and elegant that no men dared to do anything dirty to her because they were afraid that they would curse her. As for Mandy on the side, even though she had the same face, she gave people a sense of cheapness from the inside out, making them despise her from the heart.
Ted's eyelids twitched despite himself. He could tell the woman in the video was absolutely not Hazel now, even if there wasn't other evidence. Having said that, he must continue insisting that he wasn't wrong!
"It's her." The few men pointed to Mandy.
Mandy clenched her teeth angrily. When she found these men, she gave them a large sum of money, but she didn't expect them to be unreliable and directly betray her!
"Are you sure?" Simon asked.
"Yes!" The several men nodded and added, "Though they look alike, this lady is prettier, and besides, her eyes are very clean, so we can't mistake her."
"They work with her!" Mandy shrilled. "Hazel gave them the money so that they could frame me up when they were found!"
"You're really stubborn as you refuse to be convinced until faced with grim reality!" Simon was very furious. The impudence of this woman was beyond his imagination!
"Simon," Ted's face darkened as he said in a sullen voice, "Are you going to force her to admit something she didn't do? What she says makes sense."
"Are you a dotard!" Simon scoffed impolitely. "Even a blind man can understand what's going on, but you still refuse to accept it!"
"Shut up!" Ted was angry and awkward. Of course, he couldn't accept it. Wouldn't he lose his eldest son if he accepted it?
Joshua stopped Simon. "Simon, don't say anything. Since he wants proof, we'll give him proof."
Simon snorted and stopped talking.
"What proof do you have?" Hazel asked in a low voice.
Now Ted even didn't believe these people's testimony. She had great faith in Joshua indeed. Now that he came to Ted, that meant he had found enough evidence. However, no matter what kind of evidence he had, it wouldn't be useful if Ted acted shamelessly and kept denying it, so Hazel was worried.
"Don't worry." Joshua patted her hand lightly. He pointed to Mandy and asked the few men, "When did you have s.e.x with her?"
The few men spoke one after another.
"It was a few days ago... let me think. Right! The 18th of this month!"
"I also did that on the 20th of this month."
Their specific time was all a few days ago, right after Joshua and Hazel arrived in Country M.
Joshua looked at Ted lightly. "Mr. King, Hazel is eight months pregnant. If it were really her, how could her big belly become small during the past few days?"
Ted looked very pale. Mandy, on the side, already discovered their conflict. She hurried to say, "The videos weren't made a few days ago! They were made long ago. They lied!"
"She has a point," Ted said at once.
Joshua looked at him calmly, with a flash of sarcasm in his eyes.
"Oh?" Then Joshua looked at Mandy faintly and asked her as if he wasn't angry. "Tell me when these videos were made?"
"It was five months ago... No, six months ago!" Mandy froze for a while and c.o.c.ked up the time.
"Are you sure it was six months ago?" asked Joshua lightly.
"Yes, I am sure!" Mandy said with confidence.
"What do you think, Mr. King?" Joshua cast a quiet glance at Ted.
"... She has a point." Ted paused before insisting. It seemed it was the only word he was able to say now.
Joshua calmly took out a file and pushed it to Ted. "This is the records of entry and exit in Country M and Country Z six months ago. Neither Hazel nor these men have a history of going abroad."
"Then it was five months ago!" Mandy paled and corrected herself.
"This is the information from five months ago," Joshua opened the file. "There is still no record of their going abroad."
"That, that was four months ago!" Mandy cried, almost in despair.
"Four months ago, I didn't go abroad either," Hazel said peacefully."I've been paying attention to miscarriage prevention and have seldom gone out since I got pregnant. Even if I had to go on a business trip, I arranged for someone else to go. Besides, this is, in fact, my first time going abroad. I got my passport last month."
