Chapter 488 The Memories

As Wesley glanced back indiffecency, Jodie stepped forward

“Ms. Allen, don’t you find anything strange alter your incident with Ms. Hoven! Try thinking back now,” podle said bluntly.

Elena was confused. “Strange? What do you mean?”

“The testimony of those two thugs was key to the whole Incident. They’ve accused Ms. Hoven of belbing them,” Jodie said clearly.

Those two men with their phones pretended to ask Emelle for directions, When they in fact wasted the surveilance camera to capture Emelie’s interaction with them

“Hmm…” Elena responded blandly.

Jodie continued saying, “They’re the main witnesses. Shouldn’t they have been in police custody immediately to advance the case? But as I recall, the police only found them ather three days. Why did you arrange it that way?”

Elena couldn’t understand the point of Jodie’s question.

She hesitated for a moment and answered, “It wasn’t my arrangement. In my plan, they were supposed to be caught by the police that night, and then confess about Emelle. I’m not sure why the police didn’t find then that night.

“I thought they ran away. After a few days, they were caught. They still followed the script, so I didn’t ask much.”

Wesley added calmly, “They didn’t run away. Willam’s men captured them.”

Elena froze. “Will.”

Emelle bänked Wilm had never mentioned that to her before

Emelie slightly parsed her lips and said, “Oh, so William caught those two and handed them over to the police? Good thing he did. I wonder how long it would’ve taken to clear my

name.

“Good thing?” Wesley asked. “If it weren’t for their testimony, do you think you’d be detained for a whole day and night? Are you sure William was helping you?”

Ensele replied without hesitation, “William just wanted to help the police catch them. He thought that would clear my name. How would he know what the guys would say to the police?!

Wesley looked at her. “Do you even believe what you’re saying? He caught them. Don’t you think he’d question them first?

Emelie wavered for a moment before she firmly suppressed her thoughts.

She calmed down and debated, so you’re saying the thugs are trustworthy? They’re the type to stab someone at the back. They must’ve said Elena instructed them when William questioned them and at the police, the accusations turned back to me. It’s not like Wiliam can control what happened in the station.”

Wesley could sell that Emelle was desperately trying to convince herself. The irritation in her tone was a clear sign that she had doubts. However, she refused to acknowledge them.

Wesley spoke slowly. “If he didn’t have control, why did the guys suddenly withdraw the confessions?”

Emelie replied, “It’s not a movie. Do you think those thugs could outsmart the police? The police officers are sharp and well experienced, it’s natural the guys would crack and tell the truth. It’s just logic.”

Wesley stared at her indeferently, and she quickly looked away

She always managed to defend William in all ways, justifying his actions.

“Just because Henry’s a bad person doesn’t mean everything William is the same. You can’t deny what he’s done for me. That’s not fair,” Emelle said.

A person’s sins shouldn’t be blamed on the

Henry formed allies with the Dunds, Swanson, and Collins families to attack Xander. It was Henry’s fault, and it had nothing to do with William.

William was only three years old when it happened. What could he have known?

Just because Henry was William’s father, that didn’t mean Wiliam was bad. It couldn’t prove that Willam was dishonest.

Emelle deltasting in her palms and released her clenched fingers. She was unconsciously digging her nails into her palms.

She still remembered that night

William took her to the square to watch the pyrotechnic display. He had arranged for the fireworks just for her.

Acascade of lights filed the sky, and everyone danced under the moon. He lifted her hand and twirled her around, pulling her into his arms. For the first time, he apologized for his past mistakes and asked for a chance to start over

She believed in his sincerity and refused to believe the accusations

Emelie took a few steps back, reluctant to listen anymore. “If there’s nothing else, I’m going back to Capebatt Cry.”

She switcly turned around to leave.

She only took two steps before Wesley’s calm voice sounded from behind her. “If you really believe in him, why are you running away? What are you afraid of?

Emelie instantly med around upon being provoked. “I’m not…”

“Then stay and listen to everything I’m going to say,” he said.

Wesley no longer held back. He was determined to make me face the truth of the entire situation.

What was she trying to do? Go back to Capebatt City? To see William?

Things have fallen to this point. How could she still think of returning to William?
