Chapter 137 âOkay.
Î Alter Lyra left, Philip pinned James to the ground and ordered, âKneel! Apologize to Maeve!â
James struggled for a few moments, but eventually, he was pinned down.
He looked up resentfully at Maeve and forced out, âIâm sorry!â
Maeve hadnât expected Philip to find out so quickly. Even if James was as dumb as a rock, he shouldâve destroyed the evidence.
âMavy, this is Jamesâs fault. Iâll take him to the police station right now and let the police handle it!â
Upon hearing this, James instantly became furious.
âDad, how could you surrender me to the police?â
âYou have the nerve to speak when you put yourself in this situation! Surrendering you to the police is letting you off easy!â
If Zion were to handle this privately, James would have lost his life.
âUncle Phil, thereâs no need to take him to the police station,â Maeve suggested. âJames is being difficult because Aunt Sharon spoils him too much.â
Philip nodded repeatedly, âItâs all his motherâs fault! Heâs completely out of control now!â
âYesterday James came to me to discuss the Scott familyâs inheritance with me. I merely nagged him a little and he tried to kill me. He really needs to be taught some respect.
âWhat inheritance?â
Philip looked puzzled, completely unaware of what was going on.
Jamesâs face flushed red, and he exclaimed, âMacve, shut up!â
âYou shut up!â Philip suddenly came to his senses and kicked James. âYou little brat, Iâm not dead yet, and youâre already eyeing the Inheritance?â
âDad, thatâs not true!â
Jamesâs cowered slightly, but he still refused to admit it Maeve said indifferently, âUncle Phil, itâs not entirely Jamesâs fault. Someone must have planted the idea in his head, otherwise he wouldnât know what to say.â
Philip knew Maeve was talking about Sharon. He always doted on Sharon, so he turned a blind eye to whatever she did. But now, woman was scheming against him. He was furious.
his beloved Initially, he threatened to take James to the police station out of anger. But now he made up his mind and grabbed James, saying, âYouâre going to the police station to turn yourself in now. If you donât, you wonât learn your lesson!â
âDad, are you serious? Iâm your son! Can you bear to see your son go to jail?â
âI donât have a wretched son like you! When you come out of prison, I wonât give you a single penny!â
Philip picked up his phone and said, âIf you donât turn yourself in now, Iâll personally take you to the police station!â
James was scared by his words. After giving Maeve a resentful look, he got up and left.
He thought turning himself in wasnât a big deal. Maeve was alright, after all. Even if he went to prison, he would be released early. After James left, Philip had someone follow him.
Seeing Philip dizzy with anger, Marve said, âUncle Phil, donât be angry. Perhaps a few days of prison will help James straighten up?â Philip nodded and said, âIâm sorry for bothering you. Itâs all my fault for raising such a bastard who almost killed you.â Maeve shook her head. After a while, e, she added, âUncle Phil, how did you know James did this?â
âZion came by. This brat erased the garageâs surveillance footage. Zion came with evidence and asked me to punish him.â
âZion?â
Marye was shamed. He merely found out about her situation an hour ago. How did he manage to get the evidence so quickly?
