Evans followed Audrey’s lead and stepped back.

The two of them found refuge in an inconspicuous corner, where they stood still, observing as three police officers pushed through the crowd and approached Jerry.

Jerry hadn’t anticipated the involvent of the police. This only strengthened his belief that Linda was scheming against him.

With the police on the scene, the reporters beca considerably more restrained.

Tina seized the opportunity to approach the senior policeman, wearing a visibly concerned expression. She said, “Officer, my sister is inside the room, but this gentleman has been blocking the door and not allowing us to enter.”

The police officer signaled to his two colleagues who were standing behind him. Both officers comprehended the signal and moved in front of Jerry. One of them skillfully twisted his arm and firmly pulled him aside.

A hint of smugness flashed across Tina’s eyes as she hurried over and swiftly opened the door,

The scene inside the room was much better than Tina had anticipated. Linda lay in the middle of the bed, her eyes still a little blurry, but she clutched the blanket tightly around herself.

The lead policeman refrained from entering and remained outside, keeping the reporters at bay. He instructed Tina, “Since you’re her sister, go inside and assist her in getting dressed. Please refrain from touching anything else.”

Tina nodded and entered the room. The police officer half-closed the door and addressed the group of reporters, “As journalists, you should uphold professional ethics. Quickly remove any content that invades the privacy of others. Don’t knowingly violate the law.”

The reporters nodded in agreent and assured that the material they had captured did not infringe upon anyone’s privacy.

The policeman looked at Jerry, whose face had turned ashen.

Jerry’s appearance wasn’t unpleasant. After all, his mother, Caroline, had been quite a beauty in her youth. However, his indulgence in romantic pursuits since a young age had taken a toll on his health, leaving him with the appearance of soone lacking in vitality.

Unbeknownst to Jerry, Linda had regained so level of consciousness when he opened the door. By the ti she decided to collaborate with Jerry, she was already aware of the effects of the dication he had given her, and during that ti, she had already abandoned Audrey.

She believed that, regardless of the circumstances, Jerry was Abner’s biological younger brother. Establishing a connection with Abner through him would surely be much simpler than doing so through Audrey.

Nevertheless, she never anticipated that she would be the one to drink the water. When did Audrey switch it? Was it during her visit to the bathroom?

What had she been doing in the washroom at that ti? Audrey had given her a lipstick she had been contemplating buying. The mont she received it, she couldn’t wait to try it on in the bathroom.

With just one lipstick, Audrey ruined her plan.

Under Tina’s disdainful gaze, Linda struggled to put on her clothes. The effects of the drug hadn’t worn off, and she lacked the strength even to fasten the buttons.

Tina had initially regarded her coldly, but seeing Linda’s difficulty, she reached out and swiftly buttoned her clothes.

“Congratulations in advance. You’ve worked hard for many years and you’re about to get what you want,” Tina suddenly said coldly.

Fear filled Linda’s eyes as she looked up. “What do you an?”

Tina smiled, but her beautiful face appeared sowhat distorted in Linda’s

eyes. She replied, “It ans you can leave the Rofus Family imdiately and marry into a wealthy one.”

For a brief mont, Linda’s foggy mind cleared, and she faintly grasped a crucial point. “You an Jerry? That playboy? You know what kind of person he is. He’s despicable. How could I marry soone like him?”

Tina snorted. “So, you acknowledge that he’s despicable. Then why did you agree to work with him? I thought you still cared for Audrey, but it seems I was mistaken. People like you only think about their own wealth and prestige. Now that you’re going to marry Jerry, you’ll not only gain the wealth and prestige you desire but also help Father establish a connection with the Rick family. It’s like killing two birds with one stone.”

Linda’s eyes quivered. She was well aware of Jerry’s true character. Furthermore, if their cooperation went awry this ti, Jerry would undoubtedly hold a grudge against her. Marrying Jerry would lead to a miserable life.

“Sister, I was wrong.” Linda reached out to grab Tina’s arm. “Please, help plead with Father. I can’t marry Jerry. He…”

“You’re begging the wrong person.” Tina pulled her arm away and tugged Linda out of the room by her wrist. As they walked, she whispered into Linda’s ear, “You are the person I detest the most in this world. You sched to get Dad to bring you ho back then, causing to lose what seed like a peaceful ho. If I see you living comfortably, I’ll wish I were dead..”
