Chapter 383
The news made Joseph very happy, and he immediately brought Paige over. In the beginning, Paxton's man tried to play it cool, but he was forced to tell the truth after getting beaten up.
He said that Paxton was the one who asked him to buy the poison, but he didn't know about Paxton's intentions with it.
After he explained his side of the story, it was proven that Paxton was a worthy suspect because he bought the poison. With the evidence, the police immediately continued to interrogate him.
Of course, he wouldn't admit it. He said that he bought the poison to deal with some cockroaches at home as they had been swarming his house through the sewer.
The police asked him why he didn't buy drugs that were specifically for cockroaches.
Then, he hesitated and said that he thought the poison was more powerful.
In the end, he was still unwilling to admit his true intentions. Joseph was furious and arranged for people to start messing with Paxton. Paxton knew his methods, so he hit his head on the steel door and fainted.
After Charles received Savannah's phone call, he called the police station to understand the situation. He was relieved to know that Liam was the only evidence they had to convict Paxton.
Liam's words alone weren't enough proof.
Charles planned to deal with Liam and force him to change his testimony, but security was tight around
him, and outsiders could not get close to him at all.
Charles realized that something was wrong and wanted to arrange for someone to approach Paxton. However, he received news that the Wolf Group has found evidence of Paxton buying poison.
All that was left was his confession. Since the Wolf Group was involved, the chances of Paxton being free were slim, and Charles thought about the consequences.
He immediately called Savannah after hearing that a new piece of evidence was found.
"This is not good. Liam is being tightly watched by others so I can't get close to him. Also, the evidence of Paxton purchasing poison was found by the Wolf Group. This is a big problem!"
"What? Why did the Wolf Group interfere? What does this have to do with them?" Savannah was furious.
"The Wolf Group's president, James, has a good relationship with Joseph! By the way, I heard that Joseph took Paige to see Liam. I don't know what he will say to them."
Savannah was enraged by the information.
"Joseph is so useless. He only knows how to ruin my plans! Things are not looking good now!"
"Yeah, Joseph always finds a way to make things difficult. He probably asked James to help him on behalf of Paige. I wonder what's wrong with James... Why is he helping Joseph? I don't think Liam would let go of this opportunity, and he will try to bargain with Joseph. He'll probably confess what happened in the past!"
She snorted in response. "Liam doesn't know much about what happened back then. There's nothing
to be afraid of even if he told Joseph everything he knew. The only thing I'm worried about right now is Paxton. He knows too much! If he were to confess that I ordered him to do things, Archer wouldn't let me go! I'm not afraid of Joseph, but I am afraid of Archer!" Savannah did not care about Joseph at all.
What she feared most now was Archer. After all, if he knew that she was the cause of Natalie's death, she would be dead meat.
Not only would she be doomed, but Charles would also be punished. "Charles, we must find a way to silence this matter. If Archer starts to focus on it, then our father will do so too. If they investigate and find out that the cause of his wife's death had nothing to do with Natalie, he won't forgive us either. When that time comes, we will have enemies on both sides!"
Charles was a little scared upon hearing her worries. He was determined to bury the truth of the past.
"Archer will definitely find out about this. After all, Lamont is now by Paige's side, but we can make plans earlier. Let's ask Paxton to take the blame, and everything will be okay!"
After he said this, she was silent for a moment. "Use Paxton and Julie's daughter, Sophia, to threaten him! We'll force him to take all the blame on himself, and I'll promise to take care of his daughter and marry her into a rich family. That way, he would be at ease."
Charles didn't know that Sophia was Paxton's daughter. "Sophia is Paxton's daughter? Uh.."
"That's right. Why? Did something happen between you two?" NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
"That... that girl got into my pants last time!" Charles felt a little ashamed, but he still had to say it out loud.
"Really? Did that really happen? Charles, I have an idea that will solve our problem," she said with excitement. "Since she seduced you, she must have other intentions. In this case, you can help her."
"I can?" As he thought of her delicate body, he did not refuse. "I don't mind, but Elizabeth…"
"What can she do? Anyway, you only married her to use her. It's fine if she just ignores Sophia, but if she dares to mess with you, tell her to leave!" Savannah sneered. "Tell Paxton that you'll divorce Elizabeth and marry Sophia in the future. We'll go ahead with this plan first."
The news that Natalie was killed by Julie and Paxton was spread to Lamont in the evening.
Paige did not appear at work for a day.
Lamont knew that Liam was caught after plotting against Paxton and Julie, and he thought that Paige went to the police station for an interrogation, so he did not pay much attention to it.
When Paige called him in the afternoon, she said, "Uncle Saunders, my mother was poisoned by Julie and Paxton. We have found evidence."
He was extremely shocked. "Are you sure?"
"Joseph has evidence that Paxton bought the poison, but he's refusing to tell the truth. Joseph and I are still trying to find a way!"
"That scum!" He gritted his teeth. "Is Liam guilty as well?"
"Yes, he was the one who pushed my mother down the stairs. Moreover, he and Julie must have poisoned my mother's medication a long time ago..
Even though Lamont had been through a lot, he was still irritated by this unexpected news. "We can't let him go like this. Julie and Paxton too! None of them can escape! They'll see how I’ll deal with them!"
"Paxton is not admitting to anything, and Charles seems to be planning something….. Honestly, I'm very worried!" This was the first time Paige had felt so helpless.
"Paxton has Savannah's protection, and she is Archer's wife. I'm worried that he will get involved for Savannah's sake. There's also Hayden, and Joseph can't."
"Miss Anderson, that's not something to worry about!" He could only imagine Paige's helplessness and pain. "Archer is not someone who can't tell right from wrong. I've been with him for so many years, so I know that he'll never stand up for Savannah!"
