Everyone stared at the ashen-faced Jean in shock. They knew that the police would not arrest
someone so decisively unless the evidence was conclusive.
That meant Jean hiring someone to commit murder was practically confirmed!
Looking at the cold handcuffs on her wrists, Jean felt a buzzing in her ear as she felt darkness envelop
her, like the sky had collapsed and the ground had caved in.
âWhatâs going on? How could this happen?!â Jean had entrusted a reliable person to handle that
illegitimate daughter and paid the money as agreed. All of this had not even happened within the
country. âHow could it be exposed like this? How had she been discovered?!â
âJean! Jean!â Patrick desperately shouted. He was terrified as he witnessed his wife taken away by the
police. He wanted to chase after her and intervene, but after just a few steps, he grimaced, clutching
his chest, and collapsed.
âHurry! Call an ambulance!â Gregory was shocked and immediately ordered someone to take the
unconscious Patrick away.
Ryan was utterly dumbfounded and couldnât help but exclaim, âDamn, damn! Justin, your ex- mother-
in-law, was arrested on suspicion of murder! That is the biggest bombshell tonight!â
Justin observed with an expressionless face and cold eyes. He showed no intention of helping the Gold
family in any way.
He said coldly, âCommit a crime, and face the consequences. Itâs only natural.â
In full view of the onlookers, a disheveled Jean was brought away by the police. As she passed by
Rosalind, she tearfully glanced at her daughter for the last time, and this glance nearly shattered
Rosalind.
âDonât take away my mom! She didnât kill anyone! Mom!â Rosalind cried and shouted as she tried to
run, but she barely took a few steps before there was a loud crash.
Immediately, she felt a chill on her body, and there were gasps of shock around her!
The haute couture gown, which had only been taped to her body, had lost its stickiness due to her
sweat. The off-shoulder dress slipped down, and her body, with only a tube and underwear, was
exposed in front of everyone!
âAh!â Rosalind was scared as she curled up her body and covered her chest with her arms. She was
overwhelmed with embarrassment and resentment.
Shannon, witnessing this irreparable scene, hated it so much. Her eyes were filled with anger and
regret for organizing this embarrassing birthday banquet for this woman.
On the other hand, Bethany hid in the corner, sipping red wine while enjoying the spectacle. She felt
immense joy witnessing this despicable womanâs downfall, and a smile blossomed.
There were already some men who took out their phones to capture the moment sneakily.
âTsk tsk⦠This figure, honestly, is not much to look at, brother. Youâre not losing much by breaking up
with her.â Ryan rested his elbow lazily on Justin as his eyes looked on mockingly.
Justin felt that decades of friendship from years gone by had turned into a ludicrous joke. He
decisively turned away from the scene.
For Rosalind, a suffocating sense of overwhelming despair took over. She stood up and chased after
him, calling, âJustin, darling!â
In her desperation, she had forgotten she was undressed, leaving her completely exposed from head
to toe.
âAh! Look at Rosalindâs stomach! What are those lines?!â
â âThey look like stretch marks!â
âThey are stretch marks! Iâve given birth to two kids. How could I not recognize them!â
âOh my god! She has had children, yet she pretends to be a delicate and innocent woman. This woman
is truly disgusting!â
âMr. Salvador is fortunate. He almost ended up with a rotten deal. Fortunately, he came to his senses in
time!â
It was over-her beautiful dream of marrying into a wealthy family. Everything had gone down the drain
and vanished into thin air.
Justinâs
gaze was dark as he walked forward with heavy steps.
Ryan silently walked alongside him, wanting to say something several times. His lips opened and
closed, but words failed to come out.
