Chapter 910
This gal bravely spilled the beans, and one after another, people started to point fingers at Orlando The cops were getting more and more dirt on him.
Netizens did some rough math and figured Orlandoâs rap sheet could be miles long, with more than ten crimes. His wife might even have been his partner in crime, and they may have messed with minors.
When it came to minors, it was a whole new ball game.
Some pros estimated that if you count all his offenses, Orlando could be looking at hard time for over fifteen years. Even a fifteen year sentence wouldnât cut the mustard for the netizens, so the buzz kept growing online. Even in the wee hours, there were loads of folks still tuned in.
Things were pretty chill at Corneliaâs place, as it was late and all the visitors had left. The only ones left were Zackâs family and Abigailâs family.
Theyâd been running around like headless chickens, but now they finally had a breather. They all whipped out their phones to check out the latest scoop.
Tanisha said, âOrlandoâs been nabbed.â
Sonya replied, âGood! Itâs about time! If theyâd caught him sooner, a lot of girls wouldnât have been hurt.â
Tanisha added, âItâs a shame Nellyâs granny didnât live to see this day. If she could have seen him get collared, how good is that.â
Sonya, looking at Cornelia kneeling before Granny Rebeccaâs um, said, âYeah, I bet Nelly is up there giving her the good newsâ
She hit the nail on the head. Cornelia was indeed telling her granny the news of Orlandoâs arrest.
Cornelia said, âGranny, you see? Orlandoâs been cuffed. He canât hurt anyone anymore. No one will ever bring up that incident to hurt me again. You can rest easy
now.â
A big part of why Cornelia had the guts to go public with the video was her granny. Her granny had been blaming herself and crying before she passed. If this issue wasnât resolved, Comelia knew her granny wouldnât be at peace in heaven. Now, this issue that had haunted them for years was finally resolved. Her granny would surely be relieved
Marcus, who was kneeling beside Cornelia, added, âGranny Rebecca, donât worry. Iâll take good care of Nelly. I wonât let anyone ever bully her again.â
They didnât know if Granny Rebecca in heaven could hear them. The candles in front of the urn flickered twice, as if in response.
Cornelia, watching the flickering candles, asked. âGranny, did you hear that?â
The reply to Cornelia wasnât Granny Rebeccaâs voice, but the ringtone of her phone in her pocket, signaling a new message.
Cornelia took out her phone. The message was from an unknown number.
The message read âCornelia, do you really believe that only John is responsible for your grannyâs death? If the Hartley family had nothing to do with it, why did they only tell you the truth after your granny was cremated? Havenât you ever wondered if theyâre hiding something? Iâve told you before, Jeremy and Marcus are two different people, but you wouldnât listen. If youâd listened to me sooner, your granny, the only family you had in this world, might still be alive. Comelia, you should take responsibility for your grannyâs death!â
