Chapter 922

The three men lowered their heads in shame.

However, they refused to change their statements.

Lionel uttered, “Stop threatening the witnesses. You have nothing else to say, right? Take him away.”

“Hold on,” Zeke uttered, “I have a witness and a solid alibi.”

Lionel fumed aloud, “Stop with your nonsense. No one can be your witness today.”

Zeke asked, “Is that so? What about this man? Come on out.”

Brent stepped out with a gloomy expression.

He was nearly exploding in rage.

I can’t believe that this b****** Lionel has hired fake witnesses.

Even beheading ten of his heads won’t be sufficient.

I hope his fury won’t end up directed at me.

When Lionel saw Brent, he broke down.

“S... Sir, why are you here?”

Brent answered in a placid tone, “I’ve always been here, especially during the time of the incident. I’d heard you say that no one can be his witness today.”

Lionel wiped the sweat off his forehead. “I... I was kidding. It was merely a joke.”

“What f****** joke?” Brent raged as he rushed forward to slap Lionel. “How can you joke about a murder case? You’re an embarrassment to me.”

Lionel was frightened out of his wits as he hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry, Sir. I’m in the wrong.”

Brent then looked at the three witnesses. “What’s going on with you three. Confess. If you were forced, I’ll let you off, because you’re innocent. If you insist on keeping this up, don’t blame me if I react in a ruthless manner.”

The three witnesses had broken down, while Brent was slapping Lionel continuously.

The three witnesses had broken down, while Brent was slapping Lionel continuously.

They swiftly made their confessions.

“Mr. Jenkins, I confess that we’d given in false evidence.”

“L... Lionel was the one who’d forced us to do this. He said, if we didn’t follow his instructions, he’d kill our family. If we did as he said, he promised us a hundred thousand as a reward.”

“Mr. Jenkins, please spare my life.”

Brent’s rage surged, and he kicked Lionel’s stomach. “F*** you. How dare you hire fake witnesses.

Who’s given you a lion’s heart? Men, cuff him. He’ll be severely punished.”

Lionel’s men quickly cuffed Lionel.

Brent then glanced at Zach.

As if he were a mouse being watched by a cat, Zach started trembling.

Brent seethed, “Since I can prove Mr. Zeke Williams’ innocence, you must be the murderer. Take him away. We’ll investigate this thoroughly.”

Zach was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

F***. Why’s the plan that’d nearly cornered Zeke before suddenly backfiring now?

Zach had forgotten something.

The current Zeke was no longer the same wimp and easy target whom he had used to be.

After the two were taken away, Brent asked Zeke in a trembling voice, “M... Mr. Williams, are you satisfied?”

Zeke answered, “No. Is this the way you teach your subordinates?”

Sweat was dripping down his face as Brent mumbled, “I sincerely apologize. I will definitely reflect on my methods well.”

Zeke instructed, “Investigate all of your subordinates. We can’t have a black sheep amongst us. You have to get rid of them. If you don’t deal with this well, you can bid farewell to your post.”

Brent nodded vigorously.

“I will, I will.”

I’m so glad that Mr. Williams isn’t holding me accountable this time.

Soon, the news of Zach’s arrest traveled to Lucille Williams’ ears.

When she realized what had happened, her tears fell.

Zach was her precious grandson, and she treated him with utmost care.

He would not be able to withstand being imprisoned.

She would die from heartbreak if he had lost weight or was bullied in prison.

Lucille had to get Zach out, as soon as possible.

“I’m so mad at Zeke. Even if he dies, he can’t let Zach suffer. Since he’s the one to send him into jail, he’ll have to be the one to get him out. Butler, prepare the car. I’m heading to Trust Media.”
