Chapter 981
Jensen was very surprised to receive Xavier''s call.
He found it incredulous that thetter wanted to turn himself in.
He didn''t hear wrongly, did he?
“Are you Xavier?" Jensen asked with uncertainty.
"Yes, I''m Xavier." Xavier answered, "I''m going to look for you now and turn myself in."
"Where are you?" Jensen instinctively asked.
“I''m at the manor in the mountains. I''m heading back soon. Where are you? I''m going to find you." Xavier''s tone was serious as
he spoke, and he didn''t sound like he was joking.
Jensen replied, "I''m at your residence. Come over."
"Okay, I''ll be there in 25 minutes." Xavier looked at his watch and added, "It''ll take at most half an hour."
"Okay." Jensen hung up the phone, then looked at Alex and said, "Alex, Xavier called and said that he would turn himself in. Do
you think he''s telling the truth?”
“Officer Charm, you''re the policeman," Alex answered with a smile. "You should be the one to judge whether he''s lying, not me.
"| was just asking you how you feel about it." Jensen chuckled and said, "I feel very surprised that someone as stubborn as him
would suddenly turn himself in.”
"It''s probably nothing," Alex responded. "Maybe he has finally discovered his conscience. Anyway, Mr. Quell is going to divorce
Miranda, and he might be afraid of digging his own grave deeper. That''s probably it."
"Perhaps." Jensen nodded. "It''s possible. Without having Mr. Quell as a support, he would''ve made this decision after weighing
the pros and cons."
"Yeah." Alex then reminded him, "But you''d better be careful. No one knows what he''s actually nning to do."
"| know." Jensen nced at his watch and said, "By the way, you may leave first. Go back and tell Heinz that Xavier is going to
turn himself in. | will handle the case. As for Alice, tell her that | have resumed my post."
"Okay." Alex nodded and took his men to leave first.
25 minutester.
Xavier finally arrived.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.
Jensen was standing on the ground floor of his residence, waiting for him.
Xavier got out of the car and spotted Jensen. He said, "Give me a minute. I''ll hand the car over to my friend, and then I''ll go with
you."
"Sure," Jensen answered as he observed Xavier''s expression. He found that the man looked very dejected. He was not as
arrogant as before, nor was he as confident.
Xavier phoned someone and left his keys at home. He then asked them to take care of his house and his car.
After everything was settled, Xavier looked at Jensen and started, "Officer Charm, let''s talk about the kidnapping of your wife,
Alice. | was the one behind it.”
“Wait, I''m more curious as to why you''ve suddenly changed your mind and turned yourself in."
It was only the previous night that Xavier had been very arrogant.
"Things have changed," Xavier answered frankly. "I''ve misjudged the situation before. | thought that Aunt Miranda was capable,
but she is still just a nanny. She has no power in Mr. Quell''s ce. Why should | struggle with her? Since you will catch me
sooner orter, | might as well turn myself in and get leniency. Then, | won''t have to stay in prison for as long.”
His words sounded sincere, and it was hard to
doubt him.
Jensen then nodded. "Do you really think so?"
"Yes," Xavier responded. "A wise man submits to the circumstances. | don''t want to waste any more time. There is evidence
upstairs. | did not tamper with it, including the tape, eyepatch, and ropes. They have Alice''s DNA. You can go up and test them.
You will definitely find solid evidence, which will prove that | kidnapped her."
"Yes, I''ve already collected them." Jensen told him, "Before you came, my subordinates went to collect the evidence."
Xavier smiled and said, "Let''s go now. Let''s not waste each other''s time."
Jensen nodded and led him into the car.
"It''s not wise of you to do this." Jensen expressed his own thoughts, saying, "You don''t have to be like Miranda."
"It''s a blessing in disguise." Xavierughed at himself and said, "| have been betting on my godmother all this while. | thought
that by relying on Mr. Quell''s family, | could strike gold and be rich. But instead, | received nothing. I''m even suspected of
kidnapping, which is really regrettable. However, if | hadn''t done that, Mr. Quell and Aunt Miranda wouldn''t have divorced. If she
disagrees to divorce Mr. Quell, my father will remain single. But then, what would happen to her? Perhaps, doing this will help set
her and my father up."
Jensen paused for a while before turning to Xavier in astonishment. "Miranda and your father?"
"My father used to be the Quell family''s chauffeur, while Aunt Miranda worked as a nanny. They have known each other for a
long time, but Mr. Quell married her after Mrs. Quell died. My father left after that. The couple got married just so that Mr. Quell
would have someone to look after himself, but they had no feelings for each other. Aunt Miranda wanted to y up to the rich
and powerful. My father felt so self- abased that he didn''t dare to express his love for her. Now, it''s all over."
"So, you think it''s a blessing in disguise?"
"Yes!" Xavier nodded and continued
speaking, "Even if | haven''t struck
gold, it''s fine. Now teb\py sioh'' |

After a while, they went to the police station.
Alex returned to the vi.
Meanwhile, Heinz was also back.
Alex greeted both Heinz and Grace, who were in the living room, and then reported to Alice, "President, Xavier turned himself in.
Officer Charm also returned to his job in the case. He asked me toe and report to you."
"He''s returned?" Alice was very excited to hear the news. "So soon?"
"Yes." Alex was also happy for her. "Officer Charm didn''t do anything wrong in the first ce."
“Xavier turned himself in as well?" Alice was shocked and she asked in disbelief, "He actually chose to turn himself in?"
"It is indeed very surprising," Gracemented as she felt that it was strange.
Heinz spoke, "It was probably

Miranda. Everyone wihhisightthe

Grace and Alice understood instantly after listening to Heinz''s exnation. They both nodded and agreed, "Yes, you''re right."
"If he turns himself in, will he receive a lighter sentence?" Grace asked.
“Usually, that is the case," Heinz answered. "The kidnapping wouldn''t be considered as an extreme case. In fact, I''m afraid that it
wouldn''t even be considered as kidnapping."
