Chapter 81 Greed Knows No Bounds Before she could react, a “lifeline” had already been cleared for her in the crowd, and the police spotted her at a glance. A person approached her and waved the identification in their hand, saying, “Ms. Clayton, we are from the Wellfort Police Bureau. We have received a report stating that you are suspected of the crime of intentional homicide. Please come with us.” Intentional murder! The whole audience was in an uproar. The Clayton family had always had a criminal record, but little did they know that Rosalie had such audacity and could be suspected of intentional murder. The journalists immediately raised their cameras and started taking pictures of Rosalie. As the police approached her, Rosalie took a few steps back and broke down crying, “I didn’t kill anyone, you’ve got it wrong!” She cried so much that her tears and sn ot were all over the place, and everyone in the room saw her guilty look. Elva’s face looked terrible as she glanced at Claudia, only to find her calm as if she had anticipated today’s events long ago. Claudia’s lips curved into a smile, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. She managed to hand over the evidence to the police at the right time, which happened to be today. 0.00% ます 16:12 There were many people here, and they were diverse, making it suitable to announce this big event. She wanted to make Rosalie famous nationwide. Seeing Rosalie resisting, the police were in a dilemma, “Ms. Clayton, please cooperate with our work and do not make it difficult for us.’
The Clayton family had a high status in Wyvernport, and unless necessary, they did not want to clash with the Clayton family. However, the evidence was conclusive, and it was submitted by the Friedan family’s people, so they couldn’t turn a blind eye, The Clayton family was impressive, but the Friedan family was even more amazing! No one dared to offend them, they could only handle official matters. Rosalie kept stepping back, while Claudia stood behind her, placing her hand on her: “Ms. Clayton, the police won’t falsely accuse a good person, and they will never let a bad person go. What are you afraid of?” Rosalie looked sharply at Claudia and murmured, “It’s you…”
“It was you who was accusing me!” Rosalie’s eyes grew redder, and she reached out her hand, disregarding everything, and grabbed toward Claudia. Claudia quickly grabbed her wrist and with a swift motion, another hand forcefully slapped her face. A bloodstain appeared on Rosalie’s face. This was left by the ring on Claudia’s hand. “This slap was for my grandmother, Rosalie. When you had murderous intentions toward her, you should have known that this day would come.” The whole scene fell silent… Did Rosalie kill Claudia’s grandmother out of malice? Oh my go d, the timid person covered their mouth and couldn’t help but take a few steps back. Who would have thought that the eldest daughter of the Clayton family could be so treacherous. When Rosalie was handcuffed, she slowly looked at Elva. Elva frowned and maneuvered the wheelchair backwards. Rosalie smiled at her gently. Elva’s eyelid twitched, and she quickly looked away. She understood that Rosalie wanted her help. But who can save the sin of murder? RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Elva was full of displeasure. She never had the intention to kill in the first place. It was Rosalie who masterminded everything and dragged her into trouble. Elva had already made efforts to facilitate their cooperation. Now, Rosalie deserves the consequences of her actions. How could she have the audacity to ask for Elva’s help? It is truly a case of human greed knows no bounds. At the moment when handcuffs were put on her, Rosalie knew that the situation had already been settled. There were so many people here, seemingly waiting for the Friedan family to recognize their relatives, but in reality, they all came to see her joke. She lowered her head and was taken away by the police. She wanted to see Edmond’s expression, but she didn’t even have the courage to look at him. After Rosalie was taken away, the scene fell silent for a moment. This sudden and dramatic scene made people feel like they were in a dream. “Sister, did Rosalie really kill our grandmother?” Elva asked nonchalantly. She wanted to know why Rosalie was imprisoned. If it was because of Claudia’s grandmother, she had no connection with it. But if it was because of the incident of hiring a driver to kill Waldron, she couldn’t just stand by. After Elva asked, everyone looked at Claudia. They also wanted to know the follow-up. Who did Rosalie hire to kill? Claudia’s face was pale, and there was no emotion in her soft voice as she said, “My grandmother was killed by Rosalie herself, and she hired someone else to do it.” Elva’s heart raced: “Are what you’re saying true? Do you have any evidence?” She remembered that Claudia and Rosalie had been at odds because of her grandmother’s matter, but Claudia couldn’t do anything to Rosalie because there was no evidence. “The police came to arrest people, what more evidence do they need?” Elva’s face stiffened, “I was afraid that you would wrongly accuse someone else.”
“I won’t be wronged,” said Waldron, his handsome face cold as he pointed to the bandage still intact on his head. “This is the evidence, and the fact that my limited edition yellow car was smashed by her hired goons is also evidence.” Talking about this makes my heart ache. It was his favorite sports car, a limited edition worldwide, but it was completely wrecked by a truck. Elva stopped talking and pretended to open her mouth wide, exclaiming, “Waldron, you were actually harmed by her!” “That ba stard truly deserved it.” Her reaction was sincere, genuine, and natural. When they heard that Rosalie had hired a hitman to kill Waldron, everyone else thought that Rosalie had lost her mind. Who is Waldron? He is the youngest of the Friedan family. “Has Rosalie lost her mind?” Everett covered his face and rolled his eyes several times in his mind. “What should we do? Rosalie went in, do you want to help?” Edmond glanced at him coldly and said, “Who can help with illegal matters? Who do you think I am?” “She was your fiancée, right? Even though it was her second marriage, I guess if you didn’t take action, her father would have come knocking on the door himself. And your mother… Thinking of Cicely, Edmond’s face turned a bit cold. He remembered Claudia had asked him, Rosalie and her, whom he would help. He said at that time that he would do his best to save Rosalie. What about now? He looked at Claudia, but he realized that she didn’t even look at him. Everett looked at him with his eyelashes drooping, knowing his dilemma. Rosalie was not an ordinary person, it was not so much his first love as it was his responsibility. For Rosalie, he would never really let go and ignore her.
After this incident, the banquet continued, but it became even livelier because they were all discussing this major event. After leaving Waldron and the others behind, Claudia walked alone to the balcony to get some fresh air. She knew that this matter was far from over. Standing on the balcony, she gazed at the sky, where a few stars were shining above her head, especially the one closest to her, which was very bright. “Sister, why are you alone here?” A familiar voice came from behind, Claudia turned around and Elva lifted her chin slightly, looking straight at her. Sister… Claudia chuckled, finding it quite ironic that she was the one calling her sister. “Elva, there’s no need to pretend when it’s just the two of us.” I never had the mood to deal with this kind of green tea. Being exposed by her, Elva’s smile froze on her face, with no way to release it. “Since you didn’t like me calling you sister, then I won’t call you anymore, after all, I don’t like you either.” “Do you like me or not is not important, what’s important is your name, Elva…” Claudia chuckled and said, “I’m finally back now, how about you change your name?”
