Obsession With Mr. Right

Chapter 331 

Although Paxton was flustered by the situation, he was not afraid.He and Julie plotted against Natalie to help with his master's plans.He had done so many things for his boss out of loyalty, so he believed that she would not give up on him.

Anyway, Natalie was dead, and the evidence of his involvement had been destroyed.

Neither he nor Julie would mention a word about it, so the police couldn't do anything to him.

As long as he kept his mouth shut, his boss would save him.

After he made up his mind, he kept silent at all cost.

No matter how the interrogator asked him, he would not confess.

Apart from Ronald's accusation of Paxton and Julie being the ones behind Natalie's murder, the police did not have any other evidence, so the interrogation was indeed a problem.

His accomplice, Julie, was already in a miserable state.

She had a miscarriage after Ronald hit her in the stomach with a baseball bat, and her face and lower body were badly burned with a steel rod.

After the doctors examined her, they claimed that her uterus and organs were badly burned, and the only way to save her was by amputating the injured areas.

They asked her family members to sign the paperwork for the surgery, and Ashley signed it with trembling hands.

Seeing her mother being tortured like this, Ashley was both afraid and angry.

Last night, she had also been tortured a lot, but compared to Julie, she felt that her situation was a lot better.

If he also drugged her and did the same things to her like he did to Julie, would she still be able to live? After she waited for a long time outside the operating room, Julie finally came out and was sent to the ICU.

Several policemen came forward in a hurry and asked the doctors about her situation.

The doctors said that her vocal cords were damaged and her tongue had third-degree burns, so she wouldn't be able to speak in the future.

However, her life was no longer in danger, and she should heal soon after treatment.

The police did not leave immediately after they were done questioning.

Instead, they set up guard outside the ward.

Ashley, on the other hand, was taken to the police station again for questioning.

The police wanted to know what she and Julie had been up to over the past few months. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

She did not know why the police were asking her these questions, but her intuition told her that Julie had done something bad.

Although she was afraid and flustered, she caught on when the police asked her about their activities in the time period of Natalie's death.

Was Julie related to Natalie's death? If Julie dared to mess with Valeria, then it was plausible for her to mess with Natalie.

After thinking about it, Ashley decided to not tell the truth, and she said that she couldn't remember anything because it has been too long.

Her response to the police's questions was tears and silence.

Not long after, she faked fainting.

Ashley was not the main suspect.

After she pretended to faint, the police had no choice but to call off the interrogation and let her go.

At the Howard family estate, Charles was about to go to work after having breakfast when Savannah called him.

"Charles, are you free now? I have something to discuss with you."

He glanced at the driver and said, "Go downstairs and wait!"

After the driver got out of the car and walked away, he asked, "What did you want to discuss?"

"It's about Paxton.He was arrested by the police, and he's still at the station right now.The police are reinvestigating the cause of Natalie’ s death, and I'm a little worried!"

Savannah did not hide anything from her brother.

"Although Paxton and Julie were the ones who did the dirty work back then, they acted on my orders! I'm afraid that he would confess and put the blame on me.If Archer finds out about this, I'm screwed!

"Okay, I know now.I'll go and clarify the situation right away.Don't worry, I have connections with some people in the station, and I will know the exact situation soon.You have my word.Even if they have solid evidence, I will try to make sure you are unaffected!"

He comforted her.

With his guarantee, Savannah felt relieved for the time being.

Charles hung up the phone and instructed the driver, "Let's go to the police station!"

The technicians arranged by Marcus went over to Valeria's villa immediately.

Without wasting any time, William asked them directly, "l want to restore deleted data.Can you do that?"

"The deleted content can be restored, but we can't guarantee a 100% recovery.Especially if they edited the footage, then the extent of recovery will be lower!"

William knew that this was very difficult, so he nodded and said, "I know.You guys should try first.It would be best if you could recover 100% of the data!"

The technicians turned on their computers and discussed the situation before they started the recovery process.

Valeria and William waited beside them.

After approximately two hours, the data was finally recovered.

They stared at the screen without blinking as the footage began to play.

At first, Natalie was sitting alone on the sofa in the living room while browsing through her cell phone.

Later, she answered a phone call and went outside.

A few minutes later, Julie appeared in the living room.

Upon seeing her appearance, Valeria clenched her fists.

After she came in, she and Natalie sat opposite from each other.

The footage had no sound, so they could not hear their conversation.

Natalie appeared very calm at first, but then she suddenly stood up and violently pointed at Julie.

Without audio, they didn't know what she said, but they could see the surprise on her face.

With a cold smile, Julie also stood up and continued to talk to Natalie.

Natalie looked very triggered, and she even grabbed a cup from the table to splash water on Julie.

Julie wiped the water on her face and continued to provoke Natalie.

Natalie fell back down on the sofa and covered her chest with a pained expression.

Julie ignored it and said one last thing before leaving the living room.

After she left, Natalie covered her chest on the sofa in great pain.

Seeing this scene, Valeria felt her chest tighten.

Seeing her pale face, William held her hand to console her.

The two of them continued to watch the footage.

About half an hour after Natalie lay on the sofa, Ronald rushed inside in a panic.

When he saw her on the sofa, he immediately tried to help her up.

While doing so, he was anxiously explaining something to her.

However, Natalie didn't seem to listen to his explanation.

She angrily slapped him across his face and shouted at him.

He held his face and shook his head to explain.

Natalie continued to question him furiously.

Later, he knelt down in front of her.

No one knew what he was trying to explain, and Natalie kept shaking her head.

His explanation probably didn't convince her, so she ignored him and went up stairs.

He got up from the floor and followed her when she left to go upstairs.

The two of them were tugging at each other at the top of the stairs.

Ronald kept explaining, but Natalie didn't listen at all.

Since she could not go upstairs because of him, she angrily bit his arm.

As a result, he pushed her hard, and she rolled down the stairs.
