Chapter 93


    Chapter 93 The Suspect


    Macey was obviously shocked by Wird’s imposing manner. After a moment of absent–mindedness,


    she shouted righteously, “At that time, I told you to prepare two mints in case of emergencies. You


    insisted on one! Now, Lamont didn’t eat it, but another man died for it!”


    Her words made Wird speechless.


    “Give me an exnation. What should we do now?”


    After gaining the upper hand, Macey didn’t stop, continuously interrogating him.


    A trace of viciousness shed across Wird’s face. “Then make sure he can’te


    out!”


    “What do you mean?”


    Wird did not answer. Instead, he slowly returned to his chair and poured himself a


    cup of tea.


    “I say, can you be a little more attentive? You hold this broken teapot all day long!” Macey was so angry


    that she took the dark–red enameled teapot from Wird’s hand and mmed it on the corner of the


    table.


    Crack.


    Wird’s expression instantly darkened and there was no hint of a smile in his eyes.


    Facing Wird’s sullen face, Macey waved her hand nonchntly. “I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t


    expect your teapot to be so fragile. I’ll buy one for you another day.”


    Wird could even feel his blood boiling.


    He desperately clenched his fists and took a few deep breaths before calming down.


    “No need. It’s just a dark–red enameled teapot,” he said as he bent down and picked up


    the fragments. “I have more at home.”


    After he was done, Wird pped and stood up straight. “Didn’t you just say that Lamont would


    definitely be aware of our actions? It just so happens that he’s now taken


    to the police station. Let him stay there forever.”


    “You mean to make him our scapegoat?”


    “Why not?”


    Wird seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with him. “In any case, our goal is


    to make him disappear. Right now, we’re just changing the way we do


    it.”


    “Then…”


    Macey looked at Wird with anticipation.


    “I’ll deal with it. You don’t have to worry about it.‘


    ”


    Hearing this, Macey patted Wird’s chest in relief. “As I said, I will rest assured after leaving the matter


    to you.”


    Lamont, who was brought to the police station as a suspect, was not flustered at all. Instead, he calmly


    looked at the newspaper provided by the police station.


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    “Mr. Byron, I’m sorry.”


    Miriam nced at the security guard who was standing beside Lamont with a serious face and


    muttered in a low voice.


    “What do you mean by sorry?”


    Lamont shook the newspaper and flipped to the next side.


    “About that mint.” Miriam’s voice became smaller and smaller, almost inaudible, “Ms. Aylward told me


    to prepare mint for you. She also told me that you didn’t like to eat mints of other brands and especially


    gave me that one.”


    “When did it happen?”


    Lamont’s eyes paused for a moment, then he continued to browse the newspaper as if


    nothing had happened.


    “This morning. When Ms. Aylward came to thepany to meet you, she asked me to put it in your


    briefcase. I forgot to tell you as soon as there were so many matters.”


    Miriam regretted it so much. If she knew that Ms. Aylward was so vicious to her own


    son, she would have been more careful.


    “It has nothing to do with you.”


    Lamont let out a long breath and folded the newspaper, cing it on the table at the


    side.


    This matter was within his expectations, but Macey almost seeded.


    At this moment, footsteps could be heard from far and near outside.


    The door of the room was suddenly opened. It was still the police officer that had


    brought Lamont here. However, the current him seemed to be much more confident


    than a few hours ago.


    “Mr. Byron, ording to the inspection of the technicians, theposition of sodium


    cyanide was tested on that piece of wrapping paper. Arge amount of sodium cyanide was also found


    in the body of the deceased. There is sufficient evidence. ording to the regtions, you should be


    detained tonight.”


    “Okay, I will apply to obtain a guarantor pending trial.”


    Lamont slowly said these words.


    However, what Lamont didn’t expect was that the police officer in front of him had a troubled


    expression and directly rejected his request. “Mr. Byron, I’m afraid that you don’t have the qualifications


    to do so.”


    “Why?”


    Lamont suddenly stood up from the chair.


    “An informant reported that you are involved in a ck market transaction case, so you are not


    qualified.” The police officer exined as he took out a pair of handcuffs from his waist, “Sorry, Mr.


    Byron.”


    “Wait, then I should be qualified to say a few words to my assistant, right?”


    “Please do as you please.”


    Lamont signaled Miriam with his eyes, and they walked to the corner of the room.


    “After you leave here, wait for two days, but it is best to send a string of codes to the number pasted on


    the back of my table before the court session begins.”


    “Codes?” Miriam was somewhat puzzled.


    “Well, anything is fine. Just send it out.”


    After that, without waiting for Miriam to respond, Lamont tidied up his suit and walked straight to the


    police officer waiting in front of the door.


    Miriam was still stunned in ce.


    ck market transaction?


    What the hell was going on?


    What the hell were Macey and Lamont doing?


    That night, the Mullen family gathered in the living room to watch thetest news about the interview


    storm.


    “ording to the police report, the man who fainted and bled with his nose and mouth at the interview


    today died before the ambnce arrived at the hotel. ording to the forensics, this man has a lot of


    sodium cyanide in his body…”


    “What… Sodium cyanide.”


    Daron took a deep breath.


    Sodium cyanide was a highly toxic chemical substance. If one consumed sodium cyanide that was


    greater than 300 mg in one go, he could die in seconds to five minutes.


    It could be said that as long as one was drugged by someone with such a method, he would


    undoubtedly die.


    Ordinary people would not be able toe into contact with such a chemical substance, but now that it


    was used on a gathering of more than a hundred people, the culprit was truly malicious.


    The report on the television continued.


    “And the biggest suspect in this case is the son of a noble family. He is now under the control of the


    police. There is even news that this gentleman is involved in arge ck


    market transaction…”


    Although the suspect’s face had been covered with a pattern, everyone could clearly


    recognize that it was Lamont.


    “Is it actually him?”


    Eden pushed up the sses on his nose with a look of disbelief.


    Although Amelie was expressionless, she was shocked in her heart.


    If Amelie guessed correctly, this must be Macey’s trick. No, it was the joint n of her


    and Wird.


    However, this method was inevitably a little too vicious. In order to frame Lamont, they even killed an


    innocent person.


    On TV, the family of the deceased was crying hysterically about this disaster. The tragic sound passed


    through the screen like a big hand, striking everyone’s heart.
