In the meeting room, they managed to figure out Jayâs connections and networks within ten minutes.
Stanley quickly arranged them, then handed them to Jared.
âYoung Master Jared, these are all the people Jay contacted in the past few days at the hotel.
Curiously enough, we didnât find anything. between him and Miss Reiss.â
Jared took the photos and scanned through them. He suddenly caught sight of a photo taken at the front desk, where a woman was standing next to Jay. Even though it had been more than a year since he last saw her, Jared recognized the woman right away.
Selena. She was Connorâs daughter, and Jared had thrown her into jail a year and a half earlier. He didnât realize that she had been released. Why would Selena and Jay appear at the front desk of the hotel?
âInvestigate this girlâs contact with Jay.â Jared pointed at them.
With a clear direction, they quickly completed the investigation of all the surveillance cameras. in the hotel. It was three hours later when they saw a recording of Jay carrying clothes with him as he went into Selenaâs room.
Now, the truth was out in the open. The real mastermind behind Ellenâs defamation was Selena, who had just gotten out of prison.
Jared delivered a forceful punch to the table. Connorâs daughter still hadnât learned her lesson. She was just released from prison not too long ago but was already targeting Ellen again.
Apparently, the year-and-a-half sentence was too short for her.
âCollect all the evidence. Iâll deal with it tomorrow.â Now that Jared had an answer, he was no longer panicking. He would make every single one of them pay.
Ellen sat in front of the French windows as she gazed at the neon lights outside, deep in thought. Just then, she heard some noises coming from the door. She was instantly filled with joy, for he had returned.
She didnât care about the fights and chaos going on outside; she just didnât want him to overwork himself for her sake. âYouâre home.â Ellen ran up to Jared and threw her arms around him.
Jared embraced her lovingly. She was so kind, but people kept trying to harm her. He was undoubtedly furious about that. âWeâve got our answer. The one slandering you behind the scenes is Connorâs daughter, Selena,â Jared explained honestly.
Ellen looked up in shock. âSelena? Is she out of jail already?â âShe was probably released not too long ago. She seduced the head judge, who then. contacted Alden Thomas so that he would slander you.â
Anger flashed across Ellenâs eyes. This morning, Ellen had just learned from Jared over breakfast that Selena went to jail. She was shocked, but she hoped Selena would turn over a new leaf. However, reality proved otherwise.
Some people were rotten to the core, and this was something no amount of imprisonment could change. Selena would rather sleep with a man of her fatherâs age and think of all sorts of ways to harm and slander Ellen. This was unforgivable.
âDonât worry. She deserves to be in jail for the rest of her life, and I wonât let her off the hook!â Jared caressed the back of Ellenâs head as he comforted her.
âOkay. This time, I want to see her getting jailed in person.â Ellen decided she would not be soft-
hearted anymore, even if it meant cutting off ties with her uncle.
Early in the morning, Jay was sleeping soundly inside the hotel when he heard someone knocking on the door. Feeling a little annoyed, he opened the door to see a few uniformed men standing outside.
âIs⦠something the matter?â
âJay Harris, please come with us.â
âW-What happened? Did I break the law?â
âWe have a warrant for your arrest.â Before Jay could react, he was handcuffed. He never thought that the police would come knocking on his door, and he couldnât figure out why no matter how much he racked his brains.
Meanwhile, in another room, Alden was. arrested as well. Selena spent the night at her parentâs house that day. She dared not tell her parents about the incident until the police came knocking at 9.00PM.
Olivia and Connor were so shocked that their faces turned pale. Their daughter had been in jail once, so they were deathly afraid of the police. âIs Selena Aguirre home?â
âMy⦠My daughter is home. What happened? Has she done anything wrong?â
