Chapter 1427: Daphne Wells, Go To Hell
Chapter 1427: Daphne Wells, Go to Hell
A night passed, and there was still no news of Claire. Rowan's heart was hollowed out with worry.
Gazing at the misty rain-covered river, his eyes were as dark and deep as an ancient well.
"Dr. Watson! The culprit responsible for harming Miss Russell is here!" Tristan's subordinate shouted at
Rowan's back, dragging Daphne Wells and quickening their pace.
Rowan turned at the sound, and through the heavy rain curtain, he saw someone pulling Daphne Wells
towards him. Daphne Wells struggled to break free, guiltily avoiding Rowan's gaze.
"Dr. Watson! It was her who pushed Miss Russell into the river!" Tristan's subordinate reported loudly,
"She admitted it to Miss Swain! Then she tried to kill her and silence her by pushing Miss Swain down
as well! Fortunately, Mr. Marsh rescued her in time!"
Hearing this, Rowan froze in place, his umbrella dropping to the ground. His astonished eyes stared at
Daphne Wells. Daphne Wells was dragged over by Tristan's subordinate, soaked to the bone and
shivering with cold. She had injuries on her abdomen and chest, and her face was swollen.
"Dr. Watson! It was her who pushed Miss Russell into the river!" The subordinate shouted, filled with
hatred. Surrounding police officers rushed over.
Rowan's faith collapsed in an instant. He rushed forward, grabbed Daphne Wells by the shoulders, and
gritted his teeth, asking, "You pushed her down?! You wanted Claire to die?!"
"I didn't! It wasn't me! It wasn't me...!" Daphne Wells didn't want to go to jail. Her courage left her as she
saw the surrounding police. "It wasn't me!" she immediately denied, her tone unwavering, "Let me go! I
didn't! Let me go!"
But Rowan seemed ready to crush her, his eyes spewing hatred and fury. "Then why are you here?!" In
the pouring rain, Rowan violently shook Daphne Wells by the shoulders, his eyes nearly mad. "I'm
asking you! Where is Claire?! Daphne Wells! Where is Claire?!"
"It wasn't me, it really wasn't me..." Daphne Wells feigned weakness, putting on her best acting
performance, "I don't know, Rowan. You can't falsely accuse me just because you like her and dislike
me."novelbin
"You're lying! You admitted it in front of Miss Swain!" Tristan's subordinate couldn't stand it any longer,
"You even tried to kill her and silence her by pushing her down as well!"
Daphne Wells stopped resisting. In the face of Rowan's near-mad strength, she couldn't break free.
She let him shake her like a madman, almost causing her to have a concussion.
"Daphne Wells! Go to hell!" Rowan's eyes blazed with fury as he punched her in the face, knocking her
to the ground. Daphne Wells lay heavily in the puddle of mud.
Everyone around was shocked.
Rowan grabbed her and pulled her up again. Sorrow covered his face, and his eyes shone with danger.
"Does Claire's disappearance have anything to do with you?!"
Rowan's anger pierced her heart. His gaze was like a sharp knife, stabbing Daphne Wells directly in
the heart. It was Rowan's love for Claire that pierced Daphne Wells' heart. So, she let him shake her,
question her, and hate her...
Facing his gaze, which seemed to want to rip her apart, Daphne Wells' lips curled into a bitter smile.
"Rowan, you'll never see her again. Hahaha! You'll never see her again! She's already dead!"
A surge of fury erupted from the depths of Rowan's heart. "Ahh-!" He roared in pain, looking at her as
his enemy. He grabbed Daphne Wells by the collar and yanked her towards him.
His other hand clenched into a fist, and he ruthlessly punched her in the face. "Go to hell, Daphne
Wells!" Rowan lost his mind, beating her furiously and yelling at her, "Die! Die!"
The police officers watched him pummel the woman mercilessly. Their hearts ached for her, but they
understood his pain and didn't stop him.
Daphne Wells' head was nearly beaten off by Rowan. The pain was unbearable, like she was being
tortured. Stars burst in her vision, and her sight blurred with blood in her mouth.
