Chapter 117 Reveal the Truth
When the man in black didn't notice, Ellie pushed him away and ran towards the exit. But when she turned a corner, she stopped.
The man in black caught up and called "Sir" respectfully when he saw who was there. Then he stepped aside.
Looking at Ellie, Jeffery asked in a low voice, "Where are you going?"
"I... I..." Ellie was too scared to utter a complete sentence.
Suddenly, with a bang, she knelt on her knees and begged, "Sir, please let me go. I don't know you at all. Why do you arrest me here? If you want money, I can ask my daddy to give you. I can give you as much money as you want. Please, please let me go."
"Money?" Jeffery snorted, "How much do you think the Lin Group is worth?"
Ellie...
Although she never asked about the company, she heard that the company had been transferred to Jessie by Blake before. And now the Lin family was just an empty shell.
The money...
"Even if my dad is poor, my sister and brother-in-law have it. My elder sister is the daughter-in-law of the Lan family, the wife of the president of Maple. She only has one sister, me, and she will not leave me alone."
It was known to all that the Lin family had two daughters. One was Jessie and the other was Ellie.
However, few people knew that Jessie was married to Mark, and she was the wife of the current president of Maple.
Ellie thought that talking about Maple would make her safe, but it turned out that Jeffery just sneered and even disdained her.
It was not because of Jessie being the wife of the president, but because of Ellie's ignorance and naivety.
Not to mention that she killed Jessie's mother, Jessie wouldn't take pity on her, for what Ivy and her had done to Jessie and her mother in the Lin family before. Let alone to save her.
If Jessie knew that it was her who killed her mother, Jessie would be the first to kill her to avenge Irene.
Seeing that Jeffery didn't believe what she said, Ellie continued to say, "Sir, you believe me. The wife of the president of Maple is named Jessie. She is really my sister. You can call her if you don't believe me."
"Ask her? I don't think it's necessary."
"…… Why?"
"You'll know why in a minute." Nick answered first and waved his hand. Then he asked his men to hold Ellie and dragged her back to the cellar.
Jeffery sat on the sofa, staring at the disheveled Ellie.
A palm sized oval face, a pair of black and bright eyes, a small and tall nose, and a watery red lips... She looked pretty and lovely, but was ruthless and terrible.
"Just tell me. How did Irene die?" Jeffery asked casually, fiddling with the cuff link of his suit.
Ellie's face turned pale out of fear.
"I don't know."
"You don't know?" Jeffery raised his eyebrows and there was a murderous look in his dark eyes. "Don't blame me for not giving you the chance. I never feel sorry for women, especially malicious ones." Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
"Malicious? Who the hell are you? I have nothing to do with Irene's death. The police said she committed suicide. Who are you? What right do you have to question me?"
Afraid as she was, Ellie didn't think Irene's death had anything to do with her.
All members of the Lin family felt strange about the sudden death of Irene, and even felt it was odd that the doctor's examination showed that she suffered from myocardial infarction, so none of them thought too much about it. After all, Irene was not a normal person for them. In addition, long-term drugs would have some bad effects on people's heart. So, it was not impossible that someone had a heart problem all of a sudden. Ellie would never think that she had something to do with Irene's death.
Jeffery looked at her deeply and took out a pile of photos. He threw the photos in front of her. He questioned her in a stern voice, "Since you said that you had nothing to do with it, how did Irene get her head injured? Please explain it to me."
"Wound?" Ellie squatted down and picked up all the photos on the ground. All of them showed the bruises on Irene's forehead after her death, which made Ellie shiver.
"No, I didn't. She brought this on herself. She cursed me first. Otherwise, how could I push her?"
Although Ellie talked to herself, she didn't expect that Jeffery had heard all these words.
"Tell me. What did she scold you? If you can be forgiven, I might let you go."
"I..." Blankly, Ellie stood up and asked, "Will you really let me go?"
Jeffery nodded, "As long as you tell me the truth, I'll think about it."
Looking at him doubtfully for a while, Ellie finally told him the whole story.
That afternoon, Ellie went home to change clothes and was going to attend the classmate's birthday party in the evening. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Blake coming in the second.
"Blake, why are you here?"
"Oh, I'm here for uncle. I also bring you a gift."
"A gift? Is it for me?"
"Yes. I was on a business trip in Paris some time ago, and happened to attend the Paris fashion week with my friends there. Thinking that your birthday was coming, I asked Lynn to design a dress for you. One of a kind in the world."
"Really?" Hearing that Blake had got a gift from her, Ellie jumped with joy. And when she heard that it was designed by Lynn and unique, she couldn't be happier.
After taking the clothes from Blake, she said, "Blake, my dad is out today. How about you follow me? I'll change my dress and let you have a look."
Blake didn't refuse and followed her directly to her room.
The dress was a golden one. Blake had wanted to get it for Jessie. But after he saw it, he thought it was too revealing, so he gave it to Ellie instead.
Ellie was a little taller than that of Jessie, but she was thinner than that of Jessie. Ellie looked so skinny, that's not good looking. But after she put on the dress, it showed her figure thoroughly.
Seeing that Ellie was so charming and shy, and she took the initiative to come forward and put her arms around his waist, asking him in a soft voice, "Do I look good? Do you like me?" when Blake admitted that, he was moved.
However, it was just that a man could not control himself for a while.
Just when they were in the bed and made love to each other, unexpectedly, Irene saw everything through the unclosed door.
Blake secretly deprived the Lin Group and transfer all of Darren's things to him and Jessie. Irene, the one who loved Darren so much, the first thought came to her mind was how could Ellie be with such a person?
On the other hand, the only thing in Ellie's mind was Blake, so she didn't care about Darren at all. After she escorted Blake away, they finally had a quarrel.
As they were quarreling, Ellie pushed Irene down to the ground. As a result, Irene's head hit the wall with great force, causing blood to spill over her face.
