Chapter 1202
Samantha had nothing to do all day long. She had sold already everything she had stolen and then she went so far as to stay outside all night.
After Lainey left home for a month, she returned to the Gardner family again.
Marcos heard the news and came back, ready to tell her his intentions.
Lainey sat in the hall without fear, while Emilia was sobbing on the side.
Aleigha stayed in the room and didn't go out, but she listened to the sound downstairs.
Now that the two elders were not in the house, everything going on in the house seemed so strange.
"This is a divorce agreement. Sign it. I don't want to waste my time with you, not even a second." Marcos had made up his mind.
Looking at the divorce agreement, Lainey took it up and looked at it. Suddenly, she tore it into pieces.
"After all I've done for you, Marcos Gardner, this is the thanks I get?" "You, of all people, should know how familiar I am with all the skeletons you hide in that closet of yours."
"Dumping me right now will plunge you right into the deepest abyss you could ever imagine! Don't you, for one second, forget about Miranda Mccall!" A hint of killing intent flashed through Marcos's eyes.
The conversation downstairs was not very loud. Aleigha could barely hear it so she simply went out of her room and got downstairs.
As soon as she saw her come out, the smile on Lainey's mouth grew bigger.
"Why are you coming down? Go back!" Marcos didn't want to let Aleigha know something at this time.
His voice was irritated and enraged.
Aleigha went down as if she didn't hear Marcos's words.
"I heard what you two said. How did my mother die?" Aleigha's gaze at Marcos was exceptionally cold.
Being stared at by her, Marcos felt uneasy and shouted angrily, "What do you mean by this? How the hell would I know how your mother died?
"You are not implying I have anything to do with her death, are you?"
Aleigha didn't say anything, and her eyes fell on Lainey.
"Why are you looking at me? Miranda died in the countryside, a filthy and dirty place I have no interest in being!"
The flames of anger in Aleigha's heart burned stronger and stronger, but the look in her eyes was horribly cold.
"Really? My mother was poisoned and died because of that. She died in Oasis General Hospital."
"I'm pretty sure you are quite familiar with the head there, a man named Lucian Russel!"
"After all, you've spent quite some quality time with him recently."
"What, you want some evidence? How about the fact that you gave Perla twenty grand to shut her up?"
"Unfortunately, you don't really know Perla, at least not as well as I do."
Since neither of them wanted to come clean, Aleigha would make them!
"I don't know what you're talking about," Lainey looked bad, but she still refused to admit it.
A hint of coldness flashed in Aleigha's eyes. "If that's the case, I might just well take whatever I have to the police." "And let them do the rest, maybe." Marcos glared at Lainey. "You really did it?"
"What do you mean by 'I did it'? That dumb b*tch died of something she probably caught screwing another man, it's got nothing to do with me!" "Don't try to blame everything on me."
Lainey's shameless reluctance to confess had made Aleigha run out of her patience. She knew that such a vicious woman was not worthy of her mercy. Aleigha went out of the door and went straight to the local police station. The person who received her was Arthur, whom she had met at the school before. Arthur had a deep impression of Aleigha, because she was special.
Originally, the special task force would not take over such a general case, but as soon as Aleigha came, she started to talk about the case three years ago. This aroused Arthur's suspicion.
Aleigha told what she knew to Arthur and showed out the evidence one by one.
Now as long as Perla was willing to come forward to testify, there was no way for Lainey to run.
However, for her own sake, Lainey would sure pull Marcos down with her.
And Marcos, no doubt, would not permit that. So what Aleigha hoped to achieve in the beginning was to teach Lainey a lesson.
She knew she couldn't solve Lainey once and for all.
The police office took over the case and followed Aleigha back to the Gardner family.
It was dinner time. Charlotte and Dustin were also there. When the police came in, Lainey put down her chopsticks.
She almost screamed, "On what evidence are you arresting me?"
"Mrs. Gardner, we are just asking you to go back to the station to assist in our investigation, no need to get all tensed up."
Lainey looked at Aleigha and started
to doubt whether Aleigha really did have evidence, which was
something she kept on assuring
herself that couldn't happen.

"Could there be a mistake?" During the whole afternoon, Marcos had thought about it all over and realized that Lainey did have a lot of things on him.
He couldn't possibly let her go out there with that big mouth of hers, at least not alive.
"Everything will be clear if you go to the station, so cut the act."
Aleigha was colder than anyone present.
She would and she could not forget how Lainey kept on smearing mud on her mother's memory.
Since she wanted it the hard way, Aleigha was happy to deliver.
"You are not taking my mother." Emilia suddenly stood up. She knew everything Lainey did.
"Take her away." Arthur did not want to waste his time and gave the order.
"How dare you?" Lainey snapped and went completely delirious, swinging her hands in the air.
On the other hand, Charlotte and Dustin remained rather calm after what they had experienced at the house after coming back here.
The appearance of the police was not quite surprising to them.
"What are you waiting for? You're obstructing the law enforcement and that's one more thing we can press charges against!" Being short- tempered, Arthur was not to be trifled with.
Lainey was still resisting. Arthur came forward in person and twisted her arm to force her out.
Throughout the whole process, Aleigha was watching coldly from the side.
"What have you done?!" Lainey was pushed away, and Marcos roared at Aleigha.
Charlotte's face sank as she said,
"What are you snapping at her for? If she really did what they say she did, she will and should be punished accordingly!"
Marcos was speechless.
"Aleigha, if anything, and I mean anything, happens to my mother, I'll make sure you pay for it!"
Emilia viciously looked at Aleigha with a pair of bloodily red eyes.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"Well see, we will."
Charlotte and Dustin did not know what was going on and called Aleigha to go upstairs.
Naturally, she told them everything there was to know.
Although Dustin never did like Miranda, he either never expected Lainey to have done such a malicious thing.
There was a sense of guilt gushing out from his heart.
Charlotte was sad. She had a good impression of Miranda, who was a gentle and modest woman.
Though she was low-born, she was always gentle and obedient. Charlotte had always felt quite distressed about the life she had had to suffer.
Aleigha almost stayed up all night. Even if Lainey was caught, she was likely to find a way to exonerate herself.
But so what? She had all the ways she needed to make her suffer for what she owed her!
The next morning, Marcos was summoned to the police station and did not come back until night.
Aleigha also went to the police station. What went beyond her expectations was that Charlotte went to the Woods family.
As for Lainey, who had been interrogated for the whole night, she still remained silent, which gave Arthur quite the headache.
