Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Scapegoat
Mona Wilde’s body stiffened, her voice trembling, “I…I am.”
“Hello Ms. Mona Wilde, you are accused of being an accessory to murder. Please co with us.” After speaking, one of the police officers stepped forward.
“Mur…murder? You’re lying. My sister would never murder soone!” Before Mona could react, Monica Wilde had already rushed up.
“It’s being an accessory to murder,” the officer explained.
Mona thought of the livestream earlier where Abigail Green was beaten. Her heart sank little by little. “I didn’t. It’s a misunderstanding. I didn’t incite anyone to murder.”
“You have the right to remain silent, but anything you say can be used as evidence in court.” The policeman finished officially, then stepped forward to hold down Mona. “Please co with us.”
After finishing, the two officers did not give Mona another chance to speak and walked her toward the elevator.
Fear and terror made Mona instinctively seek help from Clark Stone. “Master Stone, save . Please, save !”
On the way to the hotel, Clark had learned that Mona had hired people to sar and beat Abigail Green, but never expected it would result in a death, especially that the person was his fiancée today.
The engagent ceremony was about to start, yet his bride had an accident. Clark did not care about Abigail’s life, but he could not ignore the Stone family’s interests.
Especially for this engagent, the Stone family had put in great effort. Not only did they invest heavily in the Woods Lineage’s pharmaceutical company, but the Taylor mother and daughter had demanded exorbitant prices, swallowing up six million from him.
Adding to that, the money spent on finding soone to deal with Abigail Green was nearly twenty million. Now, the engagent banquet was about to begin and Abigail, that fat woman, ended up dead?
This realization made Clark clench his fists in anger, yet Mona still sought his help.
“Slap!”
Without thinking, Clark slapped Mona on her swollen cheek. “You bitch! You arranged to kill Abigail Green? You dare ruin my plans!”
Mona hadn’t finished her plea before receiving another hard slap. Dizzy and blurred with pain, her helplessness turned into imnse humiliation and hatred. “Clark Stone, you will die a terrible death!”
She was truly blind, knowing he was a bastard yet still willingly getting involved.
“We’ll see if you have the ability!” Clark replied contemptuously, his anger no less than Mona’s.
Enraged, Mona tried to pounce on him but was held back by the police, who also warned Clark not to interfere with their duties.
Monica Wilde was so angry that her eyes were red, no longer as arrogant and domineering as during the livestream.
The news of Mona Wilde being taken away by the police quickly reached Ruby Green’s ears. The smile on her lips widened as she calmly directed the makeup artist to touch up her makeup.
With Mona as the scapegoat, she could now relax.
And in three hours, at 2 PM today, she would officially beco Master Brandon’s fiancée. On the way back, she heard from the hotel staff that Brandon Piers had arrived and was preparing on the seventh floor.
This news was essentially another piece of good news.
Brandon’s failed surgery was well known. Elder Piers had discussed with Lincoln Green about dismissing Brandon from attending the engagent ceremony. The Piers family would compensate the Green family accordingly.
But now Brandon had shown up, dragging his failed surgery body to the engagent venue. Did this not an he cared about her and valued their engagent ceremony?
Although he was a dood man, he still looked outstanding and had an honorable status. His appearance at the engagent banquet, whatever the reason, gave Ruby enough face.
Who in Gills City would dare defy her in the future?
The more Ruby thought about it, the brighter her smile beca. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, balloons flew, and flowers blood. Today, she would be the most beautiful bride.
