Chapter 299

Interrogation

“Ma’am, they said they have something important to talk to you about.” Jenny said apologetically.

“What do you want?” Although she felt guilty, Vivian maintained the demeanor that Madam of President
should have on her face.

“Ms. Holmes, we are from the Criminal Police Brigade.” The other party directly revealed his identity.

Vivian’s expression changed slightly but she quickly adjusted her expression. She looked at Jenny who
was beside her and slightly raised her hand. “You go out first.”

“Yes.”

Seeing the door of the room close, Vivian stood up from the leather chair and walked to the two of
them. She raised her hand and said, “The two of you, please take a seat.”

After saying that, she took the lead to walk towards the sofa and sit opposite the two of them.

Seeing the two of them sit down, Vivian smiled and crossed her legs. She maintained a calm and
elegant manner but she was very nervous in her heart. “May I ask if there is anything I can help you
with?”

Hearing her words, the two police officers looked at each other. The female police officer looked at
Vivian and said slowly, “May I ask if you are familiar with the name Lucas?”

“He is my neighbor. He is now Julian’s driver. What happened to him?” Vivian looked at the policemen,
pretending to be surprised.



“It is like this. This person named Lucas is suspected to be involved in an intentional murder. He has
now admitted that he is the main culprit of this murder.” The female police officer stared at Vivian’s
expression as she spoke.

Vivian frowned and had an incredulous expression on her face. “Is that so? How could he do such a
thing? That’s impossible, right? I always felt that he was very honest. Don’t tell me you wronged a good
person?”

Hearing this, the male police officer immediately said, “We have never wronged a good person, but we
will never let a bad person go!”

Vivian heard his words and smiled. “Is that so? That’s good. With your diligence, we taxpayers’ money
will not be in vain.”

The male and female police officers looked at each other, and the woman continued, “Do you know
who Lucas wanted to kill?”

Vivian smiled and shook her head, “How would I know?”

“She is your current sister-in-law, Sarah Wilson!” After the female police officer finished speaking, she
once again stared at Vivian’s expression.

Vivian frowned, “My sister-in-law? Impossible! Lucas did not have any conflicts with her, so how could
he hire someone to kill? You must have investigated wrongly! There was no conflict of interest between
the two of them, and they were not familiar with each other. Why did he want to kill my sister-in-law?”

The police woman looked at Vivian with an unfathomable expression, “We know that your relationship
with Lucas is not ordinary!”



Vivian smiled, “I just told you that my relationship with him is just a neighbor. However, he was usually
very enthusiastic. Sometimes, when he would see my mom buy some vegetables or something, he will
help to bring it home. You guys go and ask the neighbors nearby. They know that he often does all
kinds of work for others.”

“Aren’t you lovers?”

Vivian laughed when she heard what the other party said. She looked at the male police officer and
retorted with a smile, “Do you think it’s possible? If we were lovers, why would I marry someone else? I
know you are investigating a case, but I also hope that you will ask the proper questions. Be more
practical! Don’t insult my personality! If my husband heard what you just said, won’t it break my
marriage?”

Vivian had an angry expression on her face at the end of her sentence.

“Ms. Holmes, don’t be angry. We only ask this because we want to investigate the case.”

“Then you better think about it before asking me! Also, my mother-in-law just passed away three days
ago. In these three days, a lot of documents have been piled up, if you have nothing else to do. Then
please go back. I still have things to do!”

Vivian looked at the two police men and ordered them to leave. Having grown so big, it was also her
first time being questioned by a police officer.

The two police officers opposite her had sharp eyes. She knew very well that the more she spoke, the
more. . . The more holes there are. And they would probably be able to see every single detail of her
expression.

“We found out that Lucas had given two sums of money to his accomplice, Felix. The total amount was
1. 8 million! You gave this money to Lucas, right?” The male police officer did not seem to hear Vivian’s



words. He continued to look at Vivian with a serious face and asked.

“Yes! I lent it to him! But when he borrowed money, he told me that he would pay me back with interest
later on. I was thinking that even if I kept that much money, it would still be there. If I don’t make money,
wouldn’t I be a fool? Furthermore, the interest he promised me was 30%. It won’t take long for it to
double, so I lent the money to him!” Vivian replied according to the agreement she had with Lucas.

The two police officers silently looked at each other. The female police officer continued to look at her
and ask, “Lucas used this money to hire Felix and let Felix to hit Sarah Wilson! But we found that there
was no conflict of interest between him and Sarah Wilson. Can you explain to me why?”

“Heh, I’m not a police officer. How can I explain it to you? Do you think that I spent money to find
someone to hit Sarah Wilson?”

“We found out that you were Christian Cooper’s fiancée before. . .”

Vivian interrupted the police officer before he could finish. “Don’t slander us here! I admit that I was
once Christian’s fiancée, but what does that mean? You policemen should talk with evidence. If there’s
nothing else, please go back!”

The two policemen looked at each other and then stood up together. “Ms. Holmes, don’t be angry. We
are here to investigate the case. If our words hurt you, please forgive us. Then we won’t disturb your
work anymore, goodbye.”

After saying that, the two of them nodded slightly to Vivian and turned around to walk out of Office of
President.

Seeing the office door close, Vivian’s body went limp and collapsed on the sofa.

…



Because of Daphne’s accidental death, Ethan, who was lying in the hospital, could only be taken care
of by a senior nurse for three days.

After Samantha heard the news, she returned to her home from the Wilson Family. She knew that the
people of the Cooper Family would not be able to take care of the unconscious Ethan now. Ethan was
Sarah’s father’s good brother after all, so in these three days, she had been guarding Ethan.

After breakfast today, Samantha cleaned up the house first. Then she called Sarah and told that she
went to the hospital to take care of Ethan.

After Sarah heard her mother’s words, naturally, she was also very pleased. After the mother and
daughter finished talking, Samantha carried her bag and went to the hospital.

When she walked into the ward, she saw that the nurse had gone to do something and there was no
one in the room.

Samantha had already familiarized herself with all the procedures in the past two days. She put down
her bag and went to the bathroom to get a basin and towel to help Ethan wash his face. She then took
his hand and carefully wiped it. She then took out a comb from the bathroom and carefully combed his
hair.

Seeing that he still had no reaction, Samantha put away the basin and towel into the bathroom and sat
beside the sick bed again. She held Ethan’s arm and massaged it over and over again.

“Ethan, you can’t continue sleeping like this. Why are you still indifferent when such a big thing
happened in Cooper Family? Yesterday when Daphne was sent away, the whole family was broken up.
I think the children of Cooper Family can’t hold on much longer. . .”



When Samantha said this, she recalled the scene at the funeral yesterday. She could not help but raise
her hand to wipe her tears. Her eyes were red as she looked at Ethan, who was still lying quietly on the
bed. She sobbed and said, “I watched Julian grow up. Hearing what he said yesterday, everyone’s
hearts were about to break. Ethan, wake up quickly! The Cooper Family needs you. Don’t you know?”

Ethan, who was lying on the bed, acted as if he did not hear Samantha’s words. He was still lying
quietly with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen into a never ending sleep.

At this moment, the door of the ward was slowly pushed open. Sarah supported Benjamin and walked
in from outside the ward.

“Mom. . .” Sarah looked at her mother’s back and called softly.

Samantha heard her daughter’s call and immediately turned around to look. When she saw that
Benjamin had come, she stood up and made way for him.

“Uncle, why are you here today?” Samantha said as she walked over and supported Benjamin Cooper
to the bedside and let him sit down.

Benjamin had just entered the room when he heard Samantha’s words. He sat on the chair and looked
at Samantha beside him, he said gratefully, “Samantha, it has been hard on you these days.”

On the way here, he heard Sarah talk about how Samantha had been taking care of Ethan for the past
three days. Samantha helping them at this time made Benjamin very grateful.

“Uncle, we are all family! You don’t have to be so polite to me. Besides, Ethan is not only my son-in-
law’s father, but also my husband’s best friend. So no matter what the relationship is, I cannot ignore it.
I know that no one is taking care of Ethan now. I have nothing to do anyway. If you don’t mind, you can
leave the matter of taking care of Ethan to me in the future!”



Benjamin looked at Samantha gratefully. “Good! Good. . . Ethan is really lucky to have such a good
friend in his life!”

Benjamin then looked at his unconscious son and said, “Ethan, Daphne have left. She left the whole
family behind so ruthlessly. Christian returned to the army this morning. He said he wanted to go back
and settle the resignation procedures. He wanted to come back and take over the Cooper Group! Do
you know why he made such a decision?

Ethan, he was afraid that you would be sad! He was afraid that you would be disappointed! The Cooper
Group was the fruit of your life’s hard work, so he didn’t want it to go in vain. But you also know that
Christian does not like to do business! If he comes back to take over Cooper Group, it will cost him his
dreams and happiness! Do you want your son to suffer like this?

Ethan, If you don’t wake up soon, Christian will give up his dream and come home! He has already
suffered too much, don’t let him suffer any more. Ethan! Child! Did you hear that?”

Benjamin held his son’s hand tightly. His yellow eyes were filled with pain and helplessness.

The old man was getting old, so he couldn’t squeeze out any tears. But looking at his son lying there
quietly, and thinking about the big family at home. . . The old man’s hands kept trembling. .
