Chapter 462

Chapter 462

Sam had been brought in for a few hours already.He could only wait nervously for Robert and Winnie to come to bail him out.But he had never expected to see Jean when he opened the door.

She sat there waiting for him.Her aura was exactly like Gary Eyer’s.

Sam was shivering inside as he sneered at Jean coldly.

“You don’t have to come and gloat.I will not end up like your father!”

“Are you still going to insist that you are innocent?” Jean chuckled.

She scrutinized Sam and said, “Seems like they are treating you nicely.But it will change once they discover that you will be locked up like them.Their attitude toward you will change immensely”

Sam could no longer laugh after hearing this.

“No longer blame Gigi for putting me behind bars for a year.It happened because you failed to bring her up properly.You did not do what you should as a father.”

The expression on her face was calm.

Nor was there hatred in her eyes.

Being in this situation was more terrifying than being reprimanded.Sam could not figure out what was in her mind until she spoke again.

“She has decided to sever all ties with the Reece family.So from now on, the Reece family has nothing to do with her.I hope you will understand.”

“Hah.That is really like you…”

Jean tilted her head and interrupted Sam.

“Aren’t you curious why I’m the first to see you instead of Mr.Martin?”

Sam was stunned.

“Because I made him your defense lawyer.I know where all your property is.Oh, wait.I think the bank has seized all of them”

“You!” Sam’s eyes widened in anger.

He almost fainted.

But what he least expected was yet to be revealed to him.

“Although the police will not reinvestigate the case, you should know that many lives were lost because of you and Edbert.Can you still sleep peacefully at night? Don’t you dream about those dead souls at night?”

She deliberately said this to arouse guilt in Sam.

Sam tried to put on a bold look as he roared, “Do you think you will be able to ruin me like this? You cannot do anything to me without any evidence!”

“Well, that’s true.”

Jean’s smile deepened.

“You think you’re safe because the dead can’t spill secrets”

“What do you mean?”

Sam started to look frightened.

“The only proof the police have now is the photo you took with my father and Mr.Jevin.But other than the three of you, there’s another person present who knew what happened”

Sam’s face turned pale white when he heard this.He dared not look straight into Jean’s eyes.He avoided her gaze guiltily.

Although Jean looked relaxed, her fingers were curled into a fist under the table.She had to be on her guard to make sure that Sam would not be able to escape.

Although Jean and Gigi were sisters, they were completely different.

Jean had been through too many things that complicated her thoughts.Sam could not grasp what was in her mind.

The topic was changed suddenly.

Jean smiled.

“You are going to spend the rest of your life in prison for someone else while he sits there and enjoys taking over the entire Royden Group.Sam Reece, I think you are pitiful and pathetic.You are despised and forsaken after being used.” ConTEent belongs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

‘Bang!’ Sam pounded the table with his fists.He roared like a madman.

“I want to see the doctor! This woman is threatening me!”

The police immediately stepped forward and retained him to prevent him from hurting Jean.

However, Jean merely watched him go crazy.

She spoke calmly, “Why don’t you think about how you want to spend the last days of your life? I think he will get to know about this soon.Do you think he will trust you with the secret?”

Jean’s words shut Sam’s mouth.

“If he doesn’t, you will be next.”

The dead would not spread secrets.

Sam’s face darkened the moment Jean turned around.

“I, I want a lawyer’ Sam murmured non-stop as the police dragged him back to his cell.As soon as Jean walked out of the station, she saw a black car parked outside.The window of the car lowered when Jean approached it.

Jean frowned.

Miles got out of the car.He opened the car door.

“Ms.Eyer, Mr.Royden is worried about your safety.

He sent me here to pick you up: Miles was one of the few people he trusted.But he let Miles pick her.It was unbelievable.

Jean had no choice but to get into the car.

“You can send me home”

“Mr.Royden invites you to Royden Group,” Miles answered as he put on his seatbelt.

Royden Group was nearer.

Jean sighed helplessly.She massaged her brows and spoke in a low voice.

“Miles, you are a smart person.You should know it will do him no good if I appear at Royden Group now.On the other hand, it would provide Edbert with another way to take him down.Even if this was part of his plan to get Royden Group back, he did not have to go to this extent.

Miles raised his eyebrows and answered calmly.

“Ms.Eyer, this is Mr.Royden’s wish.I’m merely following his orders: He sped up.Jean looked out of the window.The look in her eyes grew colder.She had told him before that the child in her did not belong to him.She had put on an act and claimed that she lost the child.Why did he still…

Did he really want to force her to go that far? Jean sighed slowly.

As the car moved forward, she lowered her head and sent Ben a text before she closed her eyes to rest.

The car stopped at Royden Group.

When Miles saw that Jean was still resting, he called out softly.

“Ms.Eyer?”

His voice was soft, but Jean woke up immediately.Her eyes flashed with vigilance, but when she realized she was in Edgar’s car, she sighed a deep breath of relief.

“Have we arrived?”

“Yes.Mr.Royden is done with his meeting and is back at his office.”

Jean merely hummed in response.She pushed the car door open, but her stomach lurched suddenly.She tried hard to push it down and pretended nothing had happened.Then she went upstairs.She could see the man’s side profile through the window.

He looked cold.

Jean slowed down.She was not sure if she could lie to him.
