Chapter 597

Olivia hurriedly nodded. “Of course, I agree! Why wouldn't I agree to such a brilliant idea? It's my son'shonor to be Lettie's husband. I'm sure he's just bewitched by that woman, causing him not to marry thewonderful Lady Scarlett. Naturally, he'll like Lettie when they both have a child together.”

Tamara curled her lips into a smirk. “When Lettie is pregnant with Justin's child, she will have to treatJustin's uncle as her own uncle. Don't worry, Mrs. Xuereb. When the time comes, the Fletcher familywill do our best to help your brother get out of his predicament.” Everything is progressing smoothly,just as I expected. This has saved me a lot of trouble.

Upon hearing that, Olivia was overjoyed. “Thank you, Mrs. Fletcher. Don't worry. We have Justin'ssemen kept in storage. I'll go retrieve it later and pass it to you so that you can transfer it into Lettie'suterus.” Doing this can make Justin stay away from that woman and also help my family out of thedifficulties they're facing. Naturally, I must go all out and do it.

“All right. It's settled then.”

“Mm-hmm.”

The results of the investigation into Howard, Jacques, and the other involved people Raiden hadordered the person in charge of the Department of Justice to do soon came out. novelbin

According to the report, Howard colluded with Jacques, and together, they forced various departmentsto frame Bailey by giving false testimonies.

The moment that announcement was made, it caused an uproar in the outside world. While the public

felt like they had done Bailey wrong, they also requested for those scoundrels to be severely punished.

In the end, the Department of Justice arrested Howard and the others involved in accordance with thelaw. Then, they were all sent to court.

Now, everyone was just waiting for the court to gather and validate the legitimacy of all pieces ofevidence before meting out the relevant punishments for Howard and the others.

Meanwhile, at the West residence, the sounds of weeping filled the living room. Laura hugged herhusband tightly and wailed, “What am I supposed to do with my life if you get taken away?”

Jacques' face remained ashen. From the moment Raiden arrived at Hallsbay, Jacques had alreadypredicted his own ending. He had been committing various crimes throughout the past years.Considering the punishments for multiple crimes that he was involved in, he supposed he would spendthe rest of his life in prison.

“Take good care of yourself and Chloe. If you want a divorce, you can ask a lawyer to hand me thedivorce agreement. You're still young, so you can still find a partner to spend the rest of your life with ifyou remarry,” muttered Jacques.

Hearing that, Laura began bawling. She wanted to stop him, but her arms were clasped by several staffmembers. All she could do was watch Jacques being taken away.

After they let go of her, she slumped to the floor and watched blankly as the law enforcer's car droveaway.

Just then, the butler, Charles, walked over to Laura with a phone in his hand and tried to comfort her.“Mrs. West, since things have come to this, you should try to let it go. Ms. West is calling. Do you wishto accept the call?”

Abruptly, Laura regained her senses and snatched the phone from Charles' hand. She held the phonenext to her ear and asked frantically, “Chloe, where are you now? Your dad was arrested. Can youcome back now, please? I have no one else but you, and you're my only family left.”

Chloe's sobbing voice came from the phone, along with her vicious words. “Bailey destroyed my family.I will never let this slide, and I will find her to settle the score clearly! Mom, I want to take her down withme!”

With that, Chloe ended the call directly.

When Laura heard that, her hand trembled, and the phone slipped from her fingers. It crashed onto theground and broke into pieces. “C-Charles, hurry and send someone to look for Chloe! Don't let her doanything silly! She can't take Bailey down at the expense of her own life!”

“Okay, I'll send someone to look for Ms. West right away!”

In a hotel on the east side of the city, Chloe was on the phone with someone while leaning against thewindow. She was currently in a single room at the end of the third-floor hallway.

“Ms. West, Bailey left the medical base ten minutes ago. It seems like she went to the psychiatrichospital,” said the person on the other end of the phone.

Chloe suddenly tightened her grip on the phone. “All right, I got it. I will pay you the compensation later.

Thanks.” I have an opportunity to strike so soon? This is great!

After ending the call, Chloe got up and changed into a casual outfit. Before she strode out of the room,she grabbed a few bottles off the table and stuffed them into her bag. Bailey, we'll see who's the lastone standing today.

It was true that Bailey went to the psychiatric hospital. A while ago, the doctor had called her to informher that Rhonda was awake and wished to know how Bailey wanted to deal with the latter.

After giving it some thought, Bailey still decided to visit Rhonda at the hospital and take a look at thelatter's current situation.

In the ward, Rhonda sat on the bed with her back leaning against the headboard. She stared at Baileywith bloodshot eyes, as if she was trying to skin the latter alive. “You're truly a demon, Bailey. I will keepcursing you for eternity. I wish you'll die a horrible death, and I hope you'll be abandoned and forgottenby the one you love. I want you to have a taste of that excruciating pain.”

Upon hearing those words, Bailey merely raised her brow and chuckled. “Looks like you've fullyrecovered. Your curse may come true, but we're not sure when it'll happen. However, you're alreadysuffering in a living hell right now. Hence, it's still my victory.”

Clang!

Rhonda swept all the bottles on the bedside table to the ground, attempting to vent her intense fury anddespair. “Bailey Jefferson, karma will get you!” This woman is really ruthless. She took away my right tofall into madness and wants me to suffer in the deep abyss of pain constantly. I really, really want todrag her into this hell to have her suffer with me. However, I'm not capable enough.
