George Gregory could not help frowning. ‘Louise Mitchell’s leaving and going abroad? What the hell is she up to?
‘And why is her blood useless on Simon? We can’t let her leave no matter what.’
“Try to stop her. I’m coming over,” said George Gregory. “Okay, got it. Mr. Gregory,” the subordinate responded and hid nearby, planning to stop Louise Mitchell by surprise when she was ready to board the plane.
Just then, the subordinate saw a police officer approach Louise Mitchell. They seemed to talk for a moment, then the police officer put a pair of handcuffs on Louise Mitchell’s wrists.
The scene took the subordinate by surprise.
‘Did the police just… arrest Louise Mitchell? What the hell is going on here?’
Louise Mitchell seemed to be panicking. Just now, the police said… she was suspected of being involved in Herman Moss’s death. She was now a suspect, so she needed to return to the police station for questioning.
‘What’s going on here? It was so many years ago. Why is it being brought up now?’
Haven’t they defined Herman Moss’s death as an ordinary car accident?’
“How could I have anything to do with Herman Moss’s death? Have you gotten the wrong person? I want my lawyer! I’m suing the police for resorting to force without grounds,” said Louise Mitchell.
“You can see your lawyer after you get back to the police station with us! And we wouldn’t be arresting you like this if we didn’t have enough evidence,” the police said.
‘Enough evidence?’ The statement shocked Louise Mitchell. She wondered what evidence the police had at the moment.
When Louise Mitchell was taken away from the airport, the subordinate called George Gregory, who was on his way over.
“Mr. Gregory, Mrs. Gregory has been taken away by the police. I vaguely heard Herman Moss’s name being mentioned. It seems Mrs. Gregory has been taken away because of the car accident that year,”
the subordinate said.
That car accident shocked the entire city back then.
George Gregory’s pupils constricted. “What did you say? She was taken away under suspicion of being related to Herman Moss’s car accident?”
“It seems so. I was a little far away and didn’t hear very clearly,” the subordinate said. When the phone call was over, George Gregory closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said to the driver at the front, “Turn around and go to the police station!”
He wanted to find out what happened. How was Louise Mitchell involved in the car accident?
It was as if there was a layer of mist before his eyes. He was getting so close, as though he could finally see everything if he stretched out his hand.
When Louise Mitchell was taken to the police station, she found Amber Mitchell there.
Louise Mitchell looked at Amber Mitchell walking toward her in shock. ‘Why is Amber Mitchell here? Is this a coincidence? Or…’
“I told you that you could get away with it once, but that doesn’t mean you can get away with it the second time,” Amber Mitchell said coldly to Louise Mitchell. “Louise Mitchell, I won’t let you get away with it this time.”
“Amber Mitchell, you…” Louise Mitchell suddenly felt a sense of fear. She had a bad feeling. Amber Mitchell already knew what had happened in the past. Louise Mitchell probably would not be able to get away with it again this time.
Louise Mitchell was taken to the interrogation room, while Amber Mitchell entered the statement room. She retold her story to the police, explaining every detail and doubt she had.
By the time she came out of the statement room, tears were streaming down her face. She raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face. It turned out Herman’s accident still hurt her so much and the memory had never faded even after so many years.
Herman asked her to live a good life, but could she really have ‘a good life’ after losing so much?
Just then, there was suddenly the sound of footsteps. Amber Mitchell looked up only to see George Gregory walking quickly into the police station.
George Gregory stopped abruptly when he saw her, and surprise flashed across his face.
“What are you doing here?” George Gregory asked coldly.
“I’m here for the same reason as you are,” said Amber Mitchell. They were here because of Louise Mitchell!
George Gregory’s face darkened. “What’s the matter? Are you unhappy to see Louise Mitchell acquitted, so you’re finding ways to get Louise Mitchell back in jail? The police have already ruled the car crash as an accident. Louise Mitchell is still the Gregory family’s daughter-in-law. Do you know what your reckless. behavior will do to the Gregory family?”
“Is all you care about is the effects on the Gregory family?” Amber Mitchell snapped. ‘Am I disappointed? What’s there to be disappointed about? I should have known that George Gregory is such a person.’
“I’m only asking if you have to go through so much trouble? You can’t afford the consequences if you involve the Gregory family in this,” warned George Gregory.
Amber Mitchell replied without backing down, “Is there anything I can’t afford? At worst, I just have to give up my life! But what about you? Speaking of which, Herman was friends. with you. He died for no apparent reason, but you’re now warning me not to find out the truth about his death. George Gregory, is this how you treat your friends?”
“Herman Moss is no longer my friend. If he was my friend, he wouldn’t have gone behind my back and hooked up with you. How dare you say that now?” George Gregory said coldly.
“He has never done you wrong. You’re the one who’s been doubting him and me. If he had wanted to do you wrong, he wouldn’t have come to say goodbye to me before going abroad!” Amber Mitchell said. She did not care about being wronged and misunderstood, but she did not want Herman to keep carrying that burden.
He was such a nice person!
However, George Gregory did not believe her explanations.
“Either way, you’d better drop this case immediately. Or…”
Amber Mitchell said indifferently, “I can’t. It’s already a criminal case. Louise Mitchell deliberately plotted the accident and killed Herman. Even though all these years have passed, she’ll still have to pay for her crime! With the current evidence, you can’t get her out of this even if you wish to help her.”
George Gregory stared at Amber Mitchell. “There’s nothing I can’t do in Deer City.”
“The Gregory family doesn’t rule Deer City.” Another voice rang. Daley Moss had also come to the police station.
Daley Moss looked coldly at George Gregory. “If Mrs. Gregory is responsible for my eldest brother’s death and the Gregory family plans to protect her, the Moss family won’t be willing to take things lying down!”
George Gregory looked intently at Daley Moss. “Okay, I have my eye on you, the Moss family!”
With that said, George Gregory turned to leave.
Daley Moss looked at Amber Mitchell. “What did he tell you?”
“Nothing. He just asked me to drop the case because he doesn’t want Louise Mitchell’s case to affect the Gregory family. He must be unaware of what happened back then,” said Amber Mitchell.
Daley Moss said, “If he’s really unaware, once everything is cleared up, are you going to…”
“It’ll never happen between him and me,” replied Amber Mitchell as she looked solemnly at Daley Moss after a moment of contemplation. “Mr. Moss, I have a request. When everything is cleared up, I’d like to do something for Herman…”
Just then, Amber Mitchell uttered something that Daley Moss found unbelievable.
“What do you mean?”
“I couldn’t give Herman anything when he was alive. Now that he’s dead, it’s the only thing I can give him. Mr. Moss, I’m not asking for any money. I can also sign an agreement, and you can set the terms.
I just want to repay Herman’s affection,” Amber Mitchell said sincerely. Her eyes were full of tears for Herman Moss.
Daley Moss only said, “Let me think about it.”
Amber Mitchell nodded. It was all she could do for Herman.
News that Louise Mitchell was the main suspect in Herman Moss’s case quickly went viral in the media as well as online.
Reporters swarmed the Gregory and Moss families’ houses every day.
Some reporters surrounded the entrance to Amber Mitchell’s house after finding out where she lived.
Facing those reporters, Amber Mitchell only said, “I believe we’ll find out the truth, and those responsible for Herman’s death will be brought to justice.”
A reporter said, “Word has it that you tipped off the police to arrest your sister, Louise Mitchell. Louise Mitchell married George Gregory immediately after you were admitted to the mental hospital. If Louise Mitchell is sentenced to prison and George Gregory divorces her, is it possible that you’ll get together with George Gregory?”
It was the question that netizens were most curious about these days.
Many even concluded that Amber Mitchell did that in an attempt to remarry George Gregory.
Amber Mitchell, who was about to leave, stopped suddenly. She looked into the reporters’ cameras and finally said, “George Gregory and I will never get back together. It doesn’t matter to me whether he’lldivorce Louise Mitchell. I just want to uncover the truth and get justice for Herman.”
Two hours later, George Gregory heard what Amber Mitchell had said to the media on his phone. He was brimming with mixed feelings.
Never get back together with me? I should be the one to say that!
‘Why should the woman who betrayed me say that?’
