Mistress on My Husband's Phone Novel by Rina Novita

“A police station? Why are we here, Troy?”

“Calm down, beautiful. You’ll know the reason once we get inside.”

The three of us got out of the car. A police officer greeted us at the entrance.

“Welcome, Mr. Peterson,” the officer said, shaking Troy’s hand.

As we walked in, almost everyone nodded respectfully at Troy. Who was this man? Was it because he was one of the city’s tycoons or a former celebrity? I didn’t know.

“Please, Mr. Peterson and Ms. Johnson, have a seat.” An officer who looked higher ranked invited us to sit in a more private room. Maybe he was the chief.

“Bring them in!” the officer ordered.

“Yes, sir.”

Not long after, two detainees were brought in by two police officers each.

The two detainees, Brian and Kendall, walked with their heads down to the chairs in front of us.

“Brian, if you admit all your crimes, your sentence will be lighter.”

“Mr. Peterson, I’m sorry,” Brian said with a remorseful face.

“Tell her everything you and this woman did to Sarah!”

“S–sorry, Ms. Johnson! I asked Kendall to lure your clients to switch to our company. They were attracted to the prices we offered,” Brian explained, trembling.

“Our company? Whose company are you talking about?” I asked, curious.

“Me and Kendall’s…” he replied quietly.

“Impressive! You managed to start a company,” I retorted.

“Of course they could. Those illegal and fake companies were established using funds from Peterson Corp,” Troy shouted angrily as he glared at Brian and Kendall,

The two suspects bowed deeply, their bodies trembling.

“Tell me. Were you also the ones who tried to kill me?” asked, glaring at the two cunning people.

The two suspects looked at each other as if discussing their answer.

Finally, Brian nodded weakly.

“Liar!” Troy shouted, standing up and slamming the table.

Both of them Jooked terrified.

“I know who is behind all of this!” Troy continued, glaring at Brian.

“Please, Mr. Peterson… Please! We were threatened, sir. Help us!” Brian pleaded.

“Who threatened you?” I asked sharply.

“My wife and child’s lives are at risk, sir. Please…” Brian panicked and cried.

“Still worried about your wife and child, huh?” Troy yelled again.

“Tell us who is behind this!” Troy shouted once more,

Brian remained silent.

“Joshua, come in,” Troy called Joshua, who had been waiting in the front room.

Brian and Kendall became more anxious. Their faces turned pale.

“Excuse me.” Joshua stepped in and stood next to Troy.

“Mr. Powell, you know Joshua is a witness to everything. Your sentence will be even harsher if you don’t tell the truth!” the police chief said sternly.

“Joshua, what do you know? Please tell me,” I asked my personal driver.

“Before the accident happened, someone asked me to harm you. But I refused. That person kept threatening me, but I kept avoiding it. And eventually, the accident was intentional.”

“Why didn’t you tell me this before? Who is this person who wants to harm me?” I asked, curious. “Sorry, Ms. Johnson. I was confused. That person threatened to harm Gillian if I disclosed it.”

What?!

“Tell me!” I asked, eager.

Joshua hesitated.

“Please. Tell me!”

“You wouldn’t believe it if I told you the mastermind behind all this is… Bradley.”

“What?” My felt weak. My body collapsed to the floor, Troy quickly grabbed me and helped me to a knee chair.

“Troy… is all this true? Why would Bradley do this?” I whispered, my breath heavy after hearing this truth. “Ms. Johnson, Bradley is my nephew. He’s always been ambitious about becoming rich. He often said he wanted to be like you, having a lot of wealth. But I never expected him to go this far,” Joshua explained, leaving me even more shocked.

“What about Derrick, Troy? Is he involved too?”

“That fool doesn’t know anything. But Bradley had planned to shift all the blame to Derrick. Thankfully, you survived the accident, and the police could uncover everything.” Troy explained everything.

“W–what about Albert?” I asked cautiously. Honestly, I was very anxious about the answer I would hear was almost unable to bear it anymore. I was afraid Albert was also involved. Tears slowly rolled down my cheeks.

With a heavy heart and bated breath, I waited for Troy’s answer.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Albert… is clean,” Troy whispered.

“Really?” I asked, still not sure.

Troy nodded firmly. He slowly reached for a tissue from the table and wiped my tears with a sad look.

I wondered why he looked sad.

“Officer, please arrest the man named Bradley immediately,” Troy ordered the police chief.

“Understood. We will act right away.”

Oh God. I could hardly believe all of this. Why would Bradley want to destroy me?

“What about Lorraine? Yesterday, she also tried to poison me. It was Bradley who saved me,” I asked, puzzled.

“So far, we don’t know who Lorraine works for. The initial suspicion is that she acted alone out of spite towards you. And Bradley took advantage of this to carry out his actions,” explained the police chief. “Oh God, Gillian. I’m worried about Gillian. My daughter is at home right now,” I said, panicking.

“Calm down, Sarah. I’ve already asked my people to guard your house,” Troy assured me.

“Is that true? Thank goodness,” I said with relief.

“Your daughter is safe. Relax,” Troy said, patting my back.

Troy turned out to be very kind. I had misjudged him.

“Damn you! You should have died yesterday!” Kendall, who had been silent all this time, suddenly attacked me. The pregnant homewrecker yanked my hair hard.

“Ouch!” I screamed.

“Stop it, Kendall!”

The female police officers quickly pulled Kendall away. Then they took her back to the holding cell.

“Are you okay?” Troy asked, helping to comfort me.

I shook my head.

“We should go home. You need to rest because you’re still recovering.‘

“Okay.”

Troy drove me home, while Joshua was taken by Troy’s men in a different car.

Throughout the journey, Troy kept worrying about me. This man was very attentive, and he was so charming. However, I did not know how I felt about him.

Suddenly, I remembered Albert. How was he doing?
