Chapter 1274

Shera soon got the same news. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth in anger. How could they

not handle such a small thing?

Now that they had blown this up, it would be difficult to find another opening again. She was forced to

give up for now.

The next morning, to Shera’s surprise, as soon as she went out, a police car was waiting for her

outside.

“Miss Evans, you are suspected of intentional injury. Please come with us.”

Shera stood motionless for a moment, totally terrified.

She pulled herself back to reality and said, “Give me a minute to call my lawyer, please.”

Not long after, Shera walked out of the police station, her hands and feet cold.

Trenton had reported the incident of her electrocuting Millie. It certainly wasn’t his idea. Marcus must

have sent him.

Now, she had to find a way for Marcus to let it go. If not, she would be detained and wouldn’t be able to

leave this time.

As soon as she was out of that dreaded place, she took a taxi to Villa Imperiale.

She had thought that last night was just a verbal warning, but Marcus actually took the case to the

police.

In Villa Imperiale, Celeste was stunned by what she just heard from Shera.

That wasn’t exactly the reaction Shera had been expecting when she came to her. Celeste just looked

shocked.

Didn’t Celeste think that Millie deserved it?

“You shouldn’t have done that It’s illegal. Did you do anything else to her after she blacked out?

Celeste certainly didn’t like Millie, but she wasn’t a vicious woman.

She hoped that Shera could replace Millie and win Marcus’ heart, but not like this. She wanted them to

gain happiness at the end without such tricks.

Shera couldn’t believe that Celeste said it was illegal and reprimanded her for doing it. So, she

changed the story.

“No, I did nothing else. I was just overwhelmed by jealousy at the time and wanted her to suffer. After

that, I felt really guilty and regretted for a long time.”

From Celeste’s reaction the first time, Shera realized that she wasn’t in support of breaking the law.

“In the future, don’t resort to doing anything illegal.”

Shera promised, “I promise I won’t. But Mrs. Thomas, I can’t be locked up for this. Please, help me ask

Marcus for mercy. I’ve been trapped for the past five years. I don’t think I’ll be able to take it if I’m

locked up again.”

Celeste sighed, not sure what to do.

“You know Marcus doesn’t listen to me,” Celeste said.
