Chapter 329


    He never intended to kill his ex-wife; he just pushed her off the stairs by ident. That''s why a servant


    witnessed everything when it happened, as he didn''t do it in secret. After that, he gave the servant a


    hundred million as hush money. The servant happily quit her job after receiving the money. Then, when


    his wife was vegetative, he told everyone it was an ident. Although some suspected that he was the


    one who pushed her off, they couldn''t find any proof. So, no one forced the matter to be investigated by


    the police. Just like that, the case was closed.


    After everything had happened, he married Angie despite his children''s protest. Ever since he married


    her, his life had been getting better and better. It was as if he had a second chance in life; he felt


    younger and filled with youthful vigor. He loved Angie with the entirety of his being and nned to have


    a baby with her. He wondered if their baby would inherit their genes and be bright and good-


    looking as Angie was intelligent, elegant, and beautiful.

    Whenever he thought about the bright future ahead of him, he was pumped and felt that life was full of


    excitement and hope. However, he always wondered how his friends and business partners would


    admire him when he proved that he could still keep it going after having a child with Angie.


    But before any of that could happen, everything went downhill. The police had found evidence of him


    bribing the servant. Because of this, the servant was terrified and blurted everything out.


    Now that all evidence was in ce, he would be charged with attempted murder.


    When his predicament finally set in, he panicked as he would be in prison for at least three years—or


    worse, ten years—if he was found guilty. He was already in his fifties; half of his life had passed, and


    he just wanted to enjoy life as much as possible. How could he spend his remaining years in prison?


    "I didn''t mean to push Charlotte down the stairs! She fell on her own!" Jeffrey protested.


    "Since she fell on her own, why did you bribe Cara with one hundred million?" the police asked.


    "Because I''m afraid she will talk nonsense!" he said hurriedly. "I was arguing with my ex-wife. She was


    hot in the head at that moment when she identally slipped and fell down the stairs. At that time,


    Cara was cleaning the living room. Although she didn''t see anything, she was spreading rumors with


    other servants behind my back, telling them that I was the one who pushed Charlotte! There were only


    the three of us when it happened. I couldn''t prove myself, Charlotte was in aa, and there was only


    Cara left. Won''t I be guilty of murder if I allowed her to keep spreading the rumor? So, I had no choice


    but to give her one hundred million to keep her mouth shut."


    "Oh really?" the police officer said coldly. "How generous of you to give her one hundred million and not


    be mad at her for falsely using you of something you didn''t do!"


    "What else is there to do? No matter how you put it, my ex-wife was in this state because of me.


    Because of this, my children are angry at me. What would I do if they had believed in Cara''s words and


    turned against me?" Jeffrey said.


    As he continued speaking, he managed to persuade himself and gained more confidence as time


    passed. It was Cara''s words against his, so he believed that the police couldn''t charge him for


    anything. Furthermore, his reason was convincing too. As long as there was no evidence, they couldn''t


    do anything about him.


    It was as if the police had read his mind, so he mercilessly cut him off by saying, "Jeffrey, do you think


    we couldn''t convict you just with Cara''s confession? Don''t fret. Soon, we will have new evidence. All we


    have to do is to detain you in custody for 48 hours. Then, you will have nothing to say for yourself when


    we have everything. So, I advise you to confess before we find the evidence. That way, you can plead


    guilty, and the court will be more lenient when they sentence you to prison."


    "New evidence?" Jeffrey reflexively asked. "What do you mean by that?"


    There were only three of them when he pushed Charlotte down the stairs. How could the police learn


    anything else?


    "There is a famous doctor who had the title of God of Surgery named Jenson. He is currently preparing


    to operate on your ex-wife. From what we know, the surgery will be a huge sess. Once the surgery


    is sessful, your ex-wife will be awake. If you don''te clean now, you will not have the chance to


    do so once she tells us the truth."


    "Jenson? How is that possible?" Jeffrey was spooked.


    When his ex-wife hurt her head and went into aa after falling from the stairs, she was in a


    vegetative state. His children and his ex-wife''s family searched for many famous doctors, but no one


    could cure her. Nevertheless, a doctor told them about Jenson, saying that the surgery of his ex-wife


    was too risky and only Jenson could do it. So, they exhausted all possible means to search for him,


    hoping he would save Charlotte. But they couldn''t even see him in person.


    "Oh really?" the police officer said coldly. "How generous of you to give her one hundred million and not


    be mad at her for falsely using you of something you didn''t do!"


    Jenson was the dean of this country''s famous private hospital and the Harts'' private doctor. He rarely


    did surgery for outsiders, and it was hard for someone to see him in person if they didn''t have the right


    contacts; his children and ex-wife''s family were counted as people with no connections. They worked


    so hard but could only give up after not being able to see Jenson.


    When he first knew that they were going to ask Jenson to do the surgery, he was terrified, and he


    feared that they would find Jenson and his ex-wife would recover. But after seeing that they had failed


    miserably, he slowly eased up. As time passed by, he had almost forgotten about Jenson.


    Nevertheless, now that the police had told him that Jenson was preparing surgery for Charlotte, he


    couldn''t believe it. He wondered why Jenson would suddenly help his ex-wife when his children and ex-


    wife''s family couldn''t see him even when they tried everything.


    "That''s impossible!" Naturally, this greatly impacted Jeffrey''s mental state, and he couldn''t retain his


    composure as he roared, "You''re lying!"


    "Why don''t you ask yourwyer to see if we are lying to you or not?" Finally, the police left the room,


    allowing Jeffrey''swyer into the room.


    As Jeffrey saw hiswyer, he asked hurriedly, "What happened? Why did Jenson suddenly agree to


    operate Charlotte?"


    "This is all because of Angie," thewyer replied.


    Jeffrey was stunned when he heard thewyer''s words. "What does this have to do with her?"


    "Jenson is the family doctor of the Hart Family, and Angie offended the master of the Hart Family."


    Then, thewyer told him everything the Harts wanted him to know about Angie and Isabel.


    Jeffrey''s face gradually paled as cold sweat trickled down his forehead as he listened to thewyer''s


    report. "Is she… Is she tired of living?"
