Molly Walker’s eyes were filled with rage, and her face gradually grew colder as she looked at him.

The man’s face was hidden behind the mask, making it impossible to read his expression.

Molly scoffed, “Sir, do you know what she did? Sleeping with a murderer and not fearing that someday she might kill you too?”

The atmosphere plummeted, and the room was utterly silent.

The masked man’s eyes seemed to be made of ice.

“What murderer? Molly, stop falsely accusing me!” Isabelle Richardson’s heart raced, but she stubbornly denied the accusation. “I have said countless times that I didn’t kill your grandmother, but you insist on throwing this dirty water on me…”

Molly walked in front of Isabelle, her gaze sharp as a knife, wishing she could cut off Isabelle’s flesh piece by piece. However, she couldn’t because they were now living in a legal society. Since it was a legal society, she would use the law to punish Isabelle.

Molly had suspected Isabelle of killing her grandmother a long time ago, but she didn’t realize how cruel the method had been, making her want to send Isabelle to jail now.

“Jake Smith said that you sabotaged the surveillance system in advance, deliberately causing my grandmother to have a heart attack while you distracted the doctor to remove her oxygen mask. My grandmother was suffocated to death.”

When Molly thought of her grandmother dying with her last breath, her eyes turned red with anger.

“I wanted to wait until the end of the month to sue you, but I can’t wait any longer…”

Isabelle’s brain suddenly rang with a thunderous sound, her lips trembling, her heart pounding violently.

Jake Smith had spoken. He had really given her away!

“Jake Smith…” Isabelle stared at Jake with swollen eyes. “You and I are accomplices. If I am guilty, you can’t escape either.”

Jake’s pupils trembled, and his lips gradually turned pale.

Emma Smith held his hand, and Jake glanced at her. With unknown courage, he faced Isabelle and said, “If we are accomplices, then so be it. My hands are meant for saving lives, not killing!”

His hands had held a knife and touched blood, but every time it was to save someone’s life.

Had it not been for Isabelle, his life would have been spotless. He had been temporarily blinded by Isabelle’s sweet talking and deception.

Hearing his words, Emma smiled with satisfaction. The corners of her eyes glistened with tears. She held Jake’s hand tighter, as if she was giving him strength and courage.

After saying all this, the heavy weight on Jake’s mind seemed to be lifted, and he felt relieved.

He knew that starting today, his career was over. The patients who saw him holding a scalpel would be scared, not knowing whether he would kill or save them.

Isabelle stared blankly at Jake. He was her most important witness and the one she feared the most!

It was over. She was completely finished.

Isabelle fell to the ground, her face pale as a sheet.

“I intended to send you to the police station today, but it’s Emma Smith and Jake Smith’s special day, and I don’t want to ruin it.”

After she finished speaking, Molly gratefully nodded toward Emma.

Jake said the reason why he was willing to tell the truth was that Emma had convinced him. He wanted to cleanse himself of the filth and live a good life with Emma in the future.

Enduring just one day was her gift to Emma.

Molly took a few steps, and stopped. She looked at Jake and said, “For Mr. Smith’s safety…”

Jake nodded knowingly: “I’ll stay in this villa until tomorrow, I won’t leave.”

Although the security of the Richardson family’s villa couldn’t compare to the Thompson family’s, it was still heavily guarded. With Samuel Richardson’s underworld background, the security staff and bodyguards around the villa were even more reliable.

The masked man silently watched this scene, slowly helping Isabelle up. Gazing at Molly’s retreating figure, his eyes were as cold as a lurking snake in the darkness.

After Molly left, Elizabeth Aitken and Lucy Thompson hurriedly approached.

“Where have you been? Lucy and I have been looking everywhere for you.” Elizabeth finally sighed with relief.

When she turned her head and found Molly was gone, she thought something had happened.

“It’s fine, I just ran into someone I knew and had a chat.” Molly didn’t want to cause Elizabeth any heartache, so she didn’t tell her the truth. Besides, all the truth would be revealed tomorrow.

Isabelle had committed too many crimes. There was no need to wait for a lawsuit. With human evidence, the police would naturally produce the investigation results.

“This banquet is over, let’s continue having fun.” Elizabeth had had a bit of wine, her face flushed. She seemed eager to mingle.

Molly remained silent.

In fact, she was no longer in the mood to indulge, but seeing Elizabeth like this, she thought for a moment and finally nodded.

“Lucy, lead the way.” She said to the somewhat worried Lucy.

She didn’t have a good impression of this Lucy Thompson, but Damian Thompson had said that she was their cousin and some face-saving work still had to be done.

Especially Lucy’s current attitude… it seemed as if she had genuinely joined their side…

Hearing they were still going, Lucy finally breathed a sigh of relief. The thirty men had already arrived, and if they didn’t go, she was afraid Jennifer would kill her.

“Molly, Lucy said she’s prepared a lot of fun for us. She said I alone couldn’t handle it all, but the two of us together could enjoy half each.”

Not far from them, Jake heard Elizabeth’s words and was incredibly angry.

Half each? So that’s fifteen men for each?

Hearing Michael Gallagher’s words, he thought it was a misunderstanding. He didn’t expect it to be true!

Fine, Elizabeth. Marrying him wasn’t enough, so you had to play with fifteen men?

Jake Leaford fumes with rage, quickly walking up to Elizabeth.

“You can’t go!”

Every time he thought of more than a dozen men sitting next to her, he wanted to resort to murder right away.

When Elizabeth saw Jake, her face was expressionless, and she didn’t even look at him. She held Molly’s hand in one hand and Lucy’s hand in the other, walking towards the exit.

Lucy glanced at Jake with curiosity and asked Elizabeth, “Hey, what’s the story between you two?”

“What story? I don’t even know him.” Elizabeth’s cold voice cut through the crowd and reached Jake’s ears directly.

Molly saw that Jake’s face was turning pale, so she held Elizabeth’s hand and said, “I think he’s genuinely angry. Why don’t you two…”

“What does it have to do with me if he’s angry?” Elizabeth sneered, pinching Molly’s face. “You, as my friend, shouldn’t persuade me. Today, I must indulge myself properly. Why can men enjoy themselves, but women can’t?”

Seeing Jake’s unhappy face, more of Elizabeth’s drunken arrogance emerged.

Molly pursed her lips and finally didn’t persuade her.

She knew that there must be more to the relationship between Elizabeth and Jake than just being boyfriend and girlfriend. There must be something else she was hiding from herself, but if Elizabeth didn’t say it, she wouldn’t ask.

Everyone has secrets, and as her friend, all she could do was respect Elizabeth’s choices.

“Alright, let’s go!” Lucy held her head high, pulling them along. “I guarantee you’ll have a great time today!”

Seeing the three of them walk away shoulder to shoulder, Jake’s eyes turned bloodshot, and his fingers clenched tightly.

Having fun?

Good!

Then he would make sure they had a great time!
