Chapter 442
Jared squinted at Preston and suddenlyughed.
“Yes, I’m worse than an animal.
Preston, why are you pretending to be noble? Do you dare to say that you don’t want me dead?” “Of
course I want me dead!” Preston and Jared looked at each other.
Jared nced at Preston and retracted his gaze.
He smiled and said, “Unfortunately, you can’t take it.
You should know that this case is not as big as you think.
“Attempted murder can get me no more than 10 years.
As long as I behave well, I can get out in five to six years.
If I hire a betterwyer, I get a sentence thatsts three to four years.
Pull some strings, it would only be two to three years.
Put an appeal on top of it, I’d be out in one to two years, or even only half a year.” “What now, you think
you own the court?” Preston looked at Jared mockingly.
“It’s precisely because I don’t own the court, that I’m not gonna be sentenced for long!” Jared smiled.
“I’m old too.
Since you want ke Corporation so badly, I’ll give it to you.
No matter what, my blood is still flowing in your veins.
the ke family’s stuff is still in the hands of the ke family.
All the shares in my hands are yours for 500 million dors.” Jared raised his eyes slightly and looked
at Preston.
In his opinion, 500 million dors was already a low price.
If he wasn’t in prison now, he wouldn’t even make such an offer.
“So, you think I’m here to buy the shares in your hands?” Preston retorted.
Jared kept a close eye on Preston.
He didn’t say anything.
The look in his eyes seemed to say, “What else are you here for other than to buy shares?” Preston
stood up and said coldly, “I’m here to tell you that the heavens are watching.
What goes around is gonnae around.
You can’t avoid the crime of conspiring to murder me, injuring my bodyguard, and evading taxes.” Upon
hearing the words “evading taxes”, Jared exploded.
“You idiot, you want to sue me for tax evasion? When the timees, it’s still the ke Corporation
that’s gonna pay the taxes.
You’re extremely stupid.” Preston snorted.
“Four years ago, you killed a tax collector with the former taxmissioner for tax evasion.” “You!”
Jared panicked.
This matter was done very secretly back then.
Later on, the taxmissioner took the initiative to transfer to another tax bureau.
They did not contact each other anymore.
He wondered how would Preston know.
Preston nced at Jared and said indifferently, “Jared ke, do you know of Silvester Chanon the
Ouw Madman? This time, he’s mywyer!” With that, he left.
“Preston,e back!” Jared shouted from behind.
Preston did not even turn back.
Jared copsed on the couch, feeling terrible.
There was no video to ckmail Trevor, and Preston was a stubborn person.
Preston even hired Silvester Chanon the Ouw Madman.
It was rumored that Silvester Chanon the Ouw Madman could throw the opposingwyer into jail with
the criminal if he exceeded his usual performance.
Jared might even be sentenced to eight to ten years in thiswsuit.
He knew that his life would bepletely ruined.
On La’s side.
She met Alexander the next day.
As soon as she saw Alexander, she cried, “Son, did I get in your way?” She did not want to confess.
However, the surveince camera had recorded her discussing the details with Bernard’s wife.
She had no choice but to admit it.
Now that she had confessed her crimes, she can only wait for the trial to start.
Seeing that Annalise was still fine, there was a high chance that La wouldn’t be getting a very harsh
sentence in her situation.
However, she had caused one such blunder, so the old man had another reason to target Alexander.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Alexander looked at his mother and said, “I will hire the bestwyer for you!” There was just nothing
else that he could do.
La was even more upset.
Tears streamed down her face.
“It’s my fault.
I’ve dragged you down.
Alexander, if grandpa disqualifies you frompeting because of me, you must cut ties with me.”
Alexander felt terrible when he heard that.
His throat moved as he said, “Mom, I told you not to touch Annalise’s child.” “Yes, I shouldn’t have done
it.
If I had known that they were so vignt, I wouldn’t have done this.” Alexander sighed and said, “Mom,
what I mean is, don’t throw away your basic morals and conscience when you do things.
Mypetition with Julian is fair and square.
It’s all about our own abilities.
I don’t have a good rtionship with Julian because we have our own standpoints.
You were trying to hurt Annalise’s kid.
What’s the difference between that and murder?” La looked at Alexander in shock.
Her eyes were filled with hurt.
“Alexander, in your eyes, I’m a murderer?” Alexander didn’t feel good.
In front of him was the mother who had given birth to him and raised him wholeheartedly.
However, she had really done something wrong! He looked at La and said, “Mom, you shouldn’t
have given birth to me back then.” If she hadn’t given birth to him, things wouldn’t have turned out this
way.
She wouldn’t have done all these things just to help him.
“Yes, I was wrong.
I shouldn’t have given birth to you.
I was wrong.
I’m sorry.
I really shouldn’t have given birth to you.
I shouldn’t have fought for you.
I should have continued to live with you in that banged-up shithole, smelling that sewage and squeezed
into that tiny apartment, beingughed at and scolded for being a slut, giving birth to an illegitimate
child.
“I shouldn’t have stood up for you when your ssmates insulted you and said that you don’t have a
father.
I shouldn’t have told them that you have a father and that your father loves you very much.
“I shouldn’t have fought to give you aplete family.
I should have allowed others to insult us…” La was hysterical and tearful.
“Mom, that’s not what I meant.” Alexander sighed.
She would never understand what he really wanted.
What she was fighting for was status, power, and money.
And what he was fighting for was to prove himself, to be acknowledged.
“Sorry, I got too emotional.
Go back and don’t care about me.
Go back and do your best.
Try to be Parks Group’s president.
That’s what you deserve.
Even if something has gone wrong, it’s all my fault.
You didn’t do anything wrong.
Go home!” La said.
Alexander felt terrible again.
He knew very well how good his mother was to him.
He could not say anything to reprimand her.
If Julian agreed to let his mother go, he would not hesitate to give up Parks Group’spetition.
He nodded and said, “Mom, I’m going home.
Don’t think too much about it.
I’ll hire awyer for you.” “If grandpa makes things difficult for you, don’t bother about me and just cut
ties with me,” La said again.
Alexander’s back stiffened.
There was no way he couldn’t feel her mother’s intense love for him.
He said, “Mom, I’ll always love you.
I love grandpa too.
He’s also my closest kin.” He wanted to tell his mother that grandpa was his family, not his enemy.

La wouldn’t listen to him.
She waved and said, “Hurry up and go back to your job.” It was already April, and there were less than
three months left.
