See You Never, Mr. Lamont

Chapter 187 Go Turn Yourself In

The truth was revealed, and Rosalie also let down all her defenses. She lifted her chin slightly and chuckled, “She didn’t have many days left to live anyway. I just helped her find relief earlier. Every time I brought up the topic of divorce with Edmond, he would use this old woman as an excuse, saying that the old woman couldn’t handle the shock… Ha, if she couldn’t handle the shock, then it’s better for her to die earlier. Isn’t it better to be reborn sooner after death?”

“She was hospitalized in the hospital, spending thousands or even tens of thousands every day, all of which were Edmond’s money. Claudia not only spent Edmond’s money herself, but also brought along a burden. I heard that cancer in the late stage would be very painful, so helping her to relieve it was considered a good deed!”

After Rosalie finished speaking word by word, the atmosphere became tense.

The person in the other room could also hear it clearly.

Originally, Rosalie killed her grandmother because Edmond refused to divorce.

What a relief it was, what an early death and rebirth it was!

Thinking about how her grandmother looked in the end, Claudia’s heart clenched tightly, and her nose felt uncomfortably blocked.

Grandma couldn’t live much longer, but even if it was just the last day, she hoped to be able to accompany her by her side and witness her natural death, rather than having her life prematurely ended by Rosalie.

Derrick saw her struggling and a hint of sympathy appeared on his

face.

“Mr. Rowe, actually I know I was wrong, but the thing has already happened… Do you have confidence in winning the case?” Rosalie said, looking timidly at Roger, waiting for him to give her a

reassurance.

Roger put down his glass and his gaze fell lightly on her, remaining silent for a long time.

Seeing him like this, Rosalie’s heart became uneasy again.

“Mr. Rowe, I trust you to have told the truth, won’t you regret it?” With this thought, Rosalie immediately stood up, her hands anxiously clasped together. “I know you are very capable. Edmond said you are the lawyer he found for me. I trust you unconditionally to have said so much. If you don’t help me…

Rosalie’s words were filled with nervousness as she saw Roger’s expressionless face, and her heart was pounding nonstop.

If it weren’t for Roger making her tell the truth, she would never have told anyone.

If Roger refused to defend her, then…

At the thought of this, Rosalie suddenly became panic–stricken.

“Why panic…” Roger glanced at her lightly, his tone cold. “I won’t forget what Edmond told me to do.”

Rosalie smiled apologetically and said, “I was worried too, after all, I told you everything… Since Edmond instructed you to defend me, I’m sure there won’t be any issues. I just worried too much.”

“I did agree with Edmond, but you may have misunderstood some

things,” Roger stood up and walked to the computer desk, handing her a stack of documents. “Actually, even if you didn’t say it, I already guessed, Ms. Clayton, you have done more than just this one bad thing!”

Rosalie took the documents and as she looked at them, her expression became increasingly unpleasant.

All the things she has done and all the evidence have been listed above.

Everyone said Roger was amazing, but Rosalie didn’t expect him to be this amazing. Seeing the evidence and incriminating proof above, Rosalie couldn’t help but tremble in her heart.

“Mr. Rowe… What do you mean by this?”

If these things were to be revealed in court, she would be skinned alive.

Roger sighed and said, “You should turn yourself in.”

Rosalie was shocked and spoke incoherently due to nervousness, “Surrender? Mr. Rowe, have you forgotten Edmond’s instructions to you? You are my defense lawyer, how can you advise me to surrender?”

“I am now going to surrender myself and face the heaviest punishment, Mr. Rowe, you can’t do this! You said you would defend me and that’s why I told the truth, how could you deceive me like this! If I had known you would advise me to surrender, I wouldn’t have told you so much in the first place!”

Rosalie became anxious, her large copper bell–like eyes filled with panic.

She never expected that Roger would actually turn himself in.

In the room, Claudia heard Roger’s words, and her face was also filled with astonishment.

She didn’t expect that Roger would actually make Rosalie confess.

It seems that Roger didn’t take on any case either.

Upon hearing Rosalie’s words, Roger furrowed his thick eyebrows.

“You have seen these materials as well. Your crimes are too numerous. Not only did you cause the death of someone’s grandmother, but you also hired someone to commit murder. These actions have already crossed the bottom line of humanity. I am afraid that defending someone like you will invite divine punishment.”

Rosalie glanced at the information in her hand and sneered as she threw it on the ground. “I don’t know where you found this gossip, but besides Claudia’s grandmother’s incident, I haven’t done anything. Oh, and Mr. Rowe, you drank all my wine. Is that just your way of persuading me to confess?”

“This wine is worth hundreds of thousands. If you can’t help me, just give the wine back to me.”

Roger was just about to pick up the thermos and take another sip when he heard those words, causing his hand holding the cup to freeze in mid–air.

Rosalie curved her lips, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes.

These wines were all stored for over a decade and are priceless. It is very difficult to obtain even a single bottle.

Roger drank her wine but didn’t do anything, how lucky he was!

If she doesn’t do the job, then spit out the wine!

“Mr. Rowe, I trusted you and spoke so much truth, but I never expected you to investigate me privately. Did I offend you in some way, Rosalie, for you to go through the trouble of investigating me like this?”

Roger heard her drunken remarks and immediately lost his patience. He coldly said, “I don’t have the time to investigate you. These documents were given by Edmond!”

A loud thunderclap shook Rosalie’s entire body.

“You’re talking nonsense! Edmond would never do such a thing. He promised to take care of me and protect me for a lifetime. How could he possibly collect evidence to harm me? Impossible! This must be your nonsense!”

She was unwilling to believe that all this information was discovered by Edmond.

Why was Edmond checking these things? What was the purpose of his investigation?

This news was like a heavy hammer, shattering Rosalie’s heart into pieces.

Rosalie’s heart ached, tears splashed, and she fiercely accused, “Roger, don’t think that you can freely slander just because Edmond is dead. In this world, anyone can hurt me, except him!”

Because there was a shadow of Tristen on her.

Edmond promised Tristen that he would take good care of her.

No matter what she did in the past few years, Edmond was infinitely forgiving because of his guilt toward Tristen.

Edmond owed Tristen a life, and he had to cover up everything for her. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

This was his responsibility, and also his fate!

Seeing her crying like crazy, Roger took a few steps back in disgust.

He has been handling cases for so many years and has seen all kinds of people, but it’s the first time he has encountered a woman like this who is shameless and enjoys moral blackmail.

“He wouldn’t harm you, but he wouldn’t condone your criminal actions either,” Roger rolled his eyes inwardly. “Edmond made it clear that if you’re willing to admit to what you’ve done, it means there’s still hope for you. He’ll provide you with the necessary information, and you can turn yourself in. However, if you refuse to repent, I’m sorry, but my next step will be to become Claudia’s legal advisor.”

“Claudia’s legal advisor?” Rosalie looked at him sharply, her eyes red and intense. “You want to be her lawyer?”

“I wouldn’t mind,” Roger sighed heavily, “but my brother is a lawyer, so he doesn’t need to come to me.”

“Rosalie, don’t you understand yet? Edmond means for you to turn yourself in. What you’re doing now is just a desperate struggle, and if you surrender, the sentence might be lighter.”

“Be gentle…” Rosalie burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears streamed down her face. “I killed someone, Mr. Rowe. Even the lightest crime is punishable by death, execution. It’s so painful! How could Edmond do this to me?”

Rosalie couldn’t hold back any longer and sat on the chair, crying out loud.

She never expected that, waiting for her with Roger was not to defend her, but to persuade her to surrender.

Edmond… So you knew everything all along!

“I also wanted to surrender… but there was no turning back anymore…” Rosalie stared at the ceiling with wide eyes, her lips turning pale as she murmured softly, “That woman wouldn’t let me surrender

either.”

“That’s right!”

The door “bang” opened, and Claudia walked out of the room.

Graceful gait, eyes as cold as ice.

“You have done all the bad things, it’s too late to turn yourself in.”
