Chapter 487

After considering Renee’s request, the police officers agreed to leave the room. Only Renee and Briarwere left in the interrogation room, even though in truth, their every word and their every move weremonitored by the police.

Although she was handcuffed, Briar still appeared proud and arrogant. She chuckled menacingly andasked, “Did you think that I’d tell you where your son is just because you chased them away?”

She chuckled. “You’re too naive! The only reason why I attacked your son is that I wanted to takerevenge on you. Now that I see how much you suffer, there’s no way that I’d back down!”

’Suffer?” Renee nonchalantly leaned back against the chair with a cool and carefree sneer on her face.“What makes you think that I’m suffering? I

know how smart my son can be, and I’m confident that he’ll find his way out of trouble in no time. As foryou… as soon as I insist on bringing on the charges against you, there’s no other outcome for you butto spend the rest of your life rotting in jail. I do feel sorry for you, you know.”

’I’ll admit that your son did seem a little clever, but if you think that he’ll be able to outsmart the guy thatnow possesses him, then you’re nothing but an idiot! I think you’d better just wake up from yourdaydream and face reality!”

Briar noticed how Renee’s face was turning pale from anger and she felt as proud and satiated as abloodthirsty demon who was finally able to get a taste of fresh and delicious blood.

She was fully aware that the interrogation room was monitored, so she walked up to Renee andwhispered in her ear, “I suggest that you go home early and stop wasting your time here with me. You

won’t get anything from me, so why don’t you use the time that you have to order a child’s coffininstead? You want to send him off properly, don’t you?”

’Shut up!”

Those heinous words proved too much for Renee. She was utterly incensed. She shot up to her feetand reached out her long arms before enclosing her fingers around the Briar’s neck. Her beautiful eyeswere gleaming with a chilling light.

“If you want to die so badly, then I’ll grant your wish right now!”

Briar could not breathe. Her face was flushed red, but even so, she cackled maniacally and eggedRenee on, “Go ahead! Do it! This is exactly what I want! If you kill me now, then your life will be ruinedtoo. Stefan will never forgive you, and he will never let you go unpunished for this. Then I will live on inhis heart forever! Perfect!”

Renee’s frozen eyes suddenly betrayed some slight perturbations.

“Stefan Hunt?” she brusquely replied. “He’s nothing but a dead man now. There’s no use in bringinghim up now. You’re just making a fool of yourself! ■

“W-What did you say?”

Briar, who had seemed arrogant the whole time, seemed to be hit by a bolt from the blue at themoment. She was staggering on her feet, hardly able to keep herself from falling.

“You heard me right,” Renee snapped back in a biting voice. She could tell that Briar probably had noidea about Stefan’s death yet. She focused her icy gaze on the woman and added, “The man you’vealways depended on is now gone forever! There’ll be no one else to rescue you now! If you agree to

cough up Adie’s real whereabouts right now, I might consider not going further with the charges againstyou and I’ll pretend that none of this ever happened.”

“Impossible!” Briar had a complete breakdown. With tears streaming down the corners of her eyes, sheyelled, “You’re lying to me! Stefan is invincible! He’s the most powerful man in Beach City! How couldhe just die? Did you think that you could intimidate me into telling you where your son is by lying to melike that? You should’ve made up something more believable! Save your breath! I don’t believe you!”

“I don’t care if you believe me or not,” said Renee, releasing the fingers that had been pressing on theveins on Briar’s neck. She had lost all patience with Briar, and could now only bother to coldly tell her, “Igave you a chance, but you just tossed it away, so don’t regret it later.”

The police officers had been guarding the door and were ready to charge into the interrogation room atany moment. But then they saw Renee walking out of the door, and they collectively sighed in relief.

“How did it go?” an officer asked. “Did you get any useful clues from her?”

Renee smiled faintly at the police officers, but no one could tell what kind of emotions were on thatlovely face of hers.

“I just had a heart-to-heart chat with Ms. Desrosiers just now, and found out that this is all just amisunderstanding. If there’s nothing else going on, please release her as soon as possible.”

The police officers quickly exchanged looks in confusion when they heard her.

“Ms. Everheart, was that a joke? The suspect kidnapped your son and you’re asking us to releaseher?”novelbin

Renee raised her brows, and her smile broadened. In an apologetic voice, she replied, “My son hasbeen a really naughty boy. He knew that Ms.

Desrosiers and I don’t get along, so he decided to call the police on her, hoping that the police officerswould take away the person that had been mean to me. I’ve found out where he is now, so I mustdeeply apologize for all the trouble we’ve caused you. I will make a 150,000-dollar donation to theconstruction funds for this police station as compensation. Please forgive us for this mistake.”

“But…”

The police officers there were all dumbfounded
