Chapter 287: Propose Her to Plead Guilty

The police have found Jade's appearance outside the hospital that day, and coincidentally, she
appeared on the exact day which Melly died.

Such a coincidence makes one suspicious, of course, except for the surveillance cameras on the main
road and at the corner of the alley, they don't capture it anywhere else, but knowing that she was
appearing near the hospital is already crucial.

But it's not easy to find a person hidden in the countryside, it takes a lot of time and effort to find her,
but there's no other way but to wait.

Marina gets this information a day later, not from Jade, but from the person who has been sent to track
Jade.

"Miss Marina, your have been exposed." An unfamiliar number has called Mariana, the other party is a
man with a cold and gloomy voice, he is a professional killer hired by Marina.

"Are you sure?!" Marina soars up from her chair, "When did this happen?!"

"It's only been a couple of days and someone has started the checking." The man speaks succinctly,
"How about it, do you want to do it?"

Marina is confused for a moment, not knowing how Jade has been exposed, but who else could check
on her except Rex?

Goosebumps immediately rose on Marina's body when she thinks that this might be known by Rex,
she can't expose it, if Rex knows that she has done everything, she will die!

Marina holds her breath, "Do it."

"It will not be so much trouble if it is done earlier." The man says as he is about to hang up.



"Wait!" Marina speaks hurriedly, "Don't make the person die, just make her unable to speak and have
no way to identify me."

"Miss Marina, you can't do that, it's inhumane, now it's either kill her or not, don't make her half-dead,
I'm afraid of getting into trouble..."

"I'll give you a raise." Marina is breathlessness, it isn't hard to see how nervous she is, "Do it as soon
as possible, don't drag it out, the raise is negotiable."

The man is satisfied, "Since Miss Marina is so generous then I'm okay with it, I'll make sure things are
done for you."

Before hanging up the phone, Marina doesn't forget to instruct, "Be careful."

Looking at the screen of the phone, Marina can't calm her heart for a long time, if she has known that
Jade would cause trouble, she really should have done it long ago, and Rex won’t be suspicious of her
now

The only thing she is looking forward now is to hurry up and get rid of Jade before Rex finds her.
Because of this matter, Marina is uneasy, and is scared Jade has been discovered by Rex.

She would never have expected that it is Tim who has told Lily.

Rex has set two days for her to think about it, Marina wants to postpone it, but because of the death of
Melly and she can't act too aggressively, but now this matter has happened, she guesses Rex is full of
intention when he wants to marry her.

Marina clenches her hands, she knows how much she wants to get that man, but she can't take any
risk, Jade has already been exposed and she will be found out later.



Rather than allowing Lily threatening herself after her release, she will just let her stay in the prison for
the rest of her life!

After making up her mind, Marina takes out her cell phone from the drawer and dials Rex's number. It
took a moment to be picked up, "Hello."

"Rex!" Marina is trying to make her voice sound calm, "What you said before about testifying for Lily... I
still can't accept it when I think about it, I can't let my grandma down for what I want!"

Marina speaks very righteously as if she is a great filial granddaughter.

On the other hand, Rex's voice is cold, like an ice cube without any emotion, "You can reconsider..."

"No, I don't need to think about it, I've already make a decision. I'll never let go of the fact that Lily has
killed my grandmother, it's a human life. She's my nearest and dearest grandma, so she should pay for
what she has done. Just don’t try to persuade me."

Rex never expects that Marina would refuse him, he thinks that Marina will agree with him in the end,
but he doesn't expect... there is still has an unforeseen event.

If Marina refuses to go, then the lawsuit is having a predictable end, and the chances of helping Lily
turn the tables are almost nil, and this is his last chance to turn the tables.

Thinking of all this, Rex has put aside all the emotions and he almost begs, "Marina, I hope you can
think carefully, I can give you anything you want."

"Sorry, Rex, I can't do it." After saying that, Marina hangs up the phone without waiting for his
response, she is afraid of being found out and doesn't dare to hold on for too long.



To drive away Lily, she even gives up what she wants the most, but it's fine, what she's most afraid of is
that Lily will come back and there will be endless problems in the future.

Marina’s decision is making things worse for Rex. The term he proposed to Marina is a gamble, since
Marina had made such a decision, there is only one way left for Rex.

He can just ask Lily to admit the guilt, ask the court for a reduction of penalty, and then bail Lily out
through some relationships.

But this method has some costs. He needs to persuade Lily, she may no longer be able to do the work
related to law. He can bail her out, but this smudge will be last forever.

Not to mention telling her the truth in person, but even thinking about it, Rex can't bear it.

Orson is led in by his secretary after the meeting, and as soon as he approaches, he sees the man is
miserable and sad, and these days, for the sake of Lily's matter, they are all worry about it, not to
mention Rex.

"Rex, have you decided what to do, you can't drag this out any longer, it is not good for us if it takes
longer."

"No news from Jade's side until now."

Orson nods and puts the choice in front of him again, "So... what do you want to do?"

What is supposed to come will come, he still needs to face it. Even though making this decision is like
plucking out his heart with a knife, Rex still must face this reality, “Where is the information of pleading
guilty?"

Hearing this, Orson has understood and handed him the prepared items, "Here are the entire
contents."



Rex looks at the stack of documents, the hand resting on the table seem to weigh a thousand pounds,
he tries to lift it, but he can't move as if he is being held down by someone.

Because he knows very well that this is not just a piece of information, but also Lily's future and
fate.
