Chapter 500: This Is a Felony

When we arrive at the gate, we bump into a doctor leading an expert inside.

I instantly kneel down on the ground and kowtow to the expert, crying.

"Doctor, please save Frances. Please save him!"

The expert glances at me and hurries inside.

The officers take me into the car and says doubtfully, "How strange. Why did you shoot him if you don't
want to kill him?"

I can't say anything.

I guess no one will understand why I did this, right?

Apart from hatred, there is probably no other reason.

Perhaps, that is what Frances may think, too.

Hilda is really ruthless. In this case, there will be no chance for me to get back to Frances at all.

After arriving at the police station comes a series of interrogation.

Only this time, Frances will not show up.

"Where did you get the gun?"

Hilda's threat reverberates in my mind.

If I say anything I shouldn't have said, will my child be in danger?



Since Hilda is able to insert a chip into Earl's mind secretly, I shouldn't underestimate what she is
capable of.

So, I can't tell the truth.

"I don't know either. I went into the room to take a break. When I opened the drawer, the gun was
already inside."

The officers frown a bit. Apparently, they don't buy my story.

Neither do I.

But I can't make up a decent lie now.

"Before the wedding, you received a call from Hilda. Does this have anything to do with the shooting?"

"No."

I says resolutely, "She just called me to send blessings. That's all."

"Then, why do you want to kill Frances? What's your motive?"

"I'm only with him for money. I want to reunite with my ex-husband when I got the money. But he killed
my ex, so I have to make him pay for it."

I'm already numb when I repeat the same lie for a second time.

"Are you sure you're telling the truth? Right now, if Frances survived, you've committed an attempted
murder. If he's dead, then you've committed homicide. Neither of them was a light crime, and you can't
get away with it easily."

The officers look at me and warn me seriously.



But, do I have a choice?

Taking a deep breath, I forgo every bit of hope.

"Everything I said is true."

Now I'm detained in a cell for the time being.

As for my charges, the decision will only be made after Frances’ situation is clear.

Before I go to the detention center, I hear that I have got a visit.

It's Hilda.

Through the glass, I can see her smile is exceptionally bright.

"How's Frances? Is he alright?"

I ask anxiously.

It has been three hours since I left the hospital.

"He's out of danger." Hilda says in a low voice.

I can finally rest reassured completely.

He's fine.

He's fine.

I'm so overjoyed that my tears start to roll down uncontrollably.



Hilda snorts coldly and smiles at me, "So what? Do you think you still have any chance to get back to
him?"

I don't care. I don't care if I have the chance or not.

"As long as he's fine, it's okay" I smile to her and feel relaxed.

"He's fine, but you may not be so lucky. I'm here to tell you that I will take good care of your child. Of
course, on condition that you behave yourself."

Her smile is beaming, but the words she says make me shiver.

I know very well that she is threatening me.

If I dare to leak anything, she will definitely hurt Earl.

I'm glad I didn't tell the police about Hilda.

Right now, she is a time bomb buried beside my child, which makes my tongue tied.

In fact, I even suspect that I have fallen into her trap for listening to her orders and end up in jail now.

But no matter what, there is no turning-back.

"I know."

I bite my lips and reply softly.

"Right, Frances is awake and he has a message for you."

Hilda stands up with a faint smile on her face.



"He says he hopes that you can be locked up here for the rest of your life, or better, just die
here."

"He says he hopes that you can be locked up here for the rest of your life, or better, just die
here."
