Chapter 98
There was a hint of sorrow in his eyes, but that was all.
His reaction did not come as much of a surprise. If Harvey had been devastated by Roberta’s death, he would not have stood by all these years when he knew how Talia was tormenting
Roberta.
Clive signaled to Gerald with a glance. After receiving his order, Gerald came forward and shared briefly about what happened that day.
To put it simply, someone stole the poison from the pharmacy, and Roberta was poisoned to
death.
They had gathered everyone there to seek justice for Roberta and catch the culprit behind this incident,
After informing others about the incident, Gerald continued, “There are two prime suspects so far. They are Ms. Kayla and Mrs. Walsh.”
Upon hearing those words, Myra immediately stepped up and expressed her disapproval.
She said aloud, “That’s bullshit! Kayla couldn’t possibly be the murderer! Which of you bastards said that? Come forward now!”
Gerald fell silent as he lowered his gaze and moved to stand behind Clive.
Talia clicked her tongue. She was much older than Myra when it came to their age. Yet, technically speaking, Harvey and her were Myra’s brother and sister–in–law.
Talia went ahead and addressed Myra by her name, “Myra, you should do a better job at disciplining your daughter!
“Felicia has been spouting all kinds of nonsense and accusing us of being murderers! Look at the wounds on our foreheads. She did this!”
“It’s Felicia again! We can overlook the casual bickerings and quarrels she usually gets herself into. Yet, she’s now accusing others of murder?” Myra pondered.
She lost her composure and yelled at Felicia, “Can’t you just hold your tongue and stay put? Do you only feel satisfied after causing a fuss for everyone?”
Felicia kept her gaze low as she wiped away the blood on her hands with wet tissue. It was as though she could not hear anything from her surroundings.
Myra covered her face with her hands and mumbled, “What have I done wrong to deserve this
Unfortunately, Dexter was not around. There was no one else to support her stance.
T
Sebastian frowned. His voice was calm, and he maintained a neutral stance. “What about their motives and the proof they’ve committed the murder?”
Before Felicia could answer, Harvey got agitated and tried to defend Talia. “Stop slandering Talia! There’s no way my wife would do something like that. She’s always been kind to
Roberta!”
Felicia could not help but let out a chuckle.
Talia had not been kind to Roberta. Instead, she had been very kind to Harvey. She had turned
a blind eye to the fact that Harvey was fooling around with other women.
Instead, she vented all of her rage on just one woman and the illegitimate child.
As the person who benefited from the situation in every way, it was only natural Harvey would shamelessly say that Talia had always been kind to Roberta.
It was because he never cared.
He never bothered to care about Roberta and her mother’s situation. He only thought about enjoying his time with other women. He probably even enjoyed watching women fight for his
attention.
Harvey snickered, “From the looks of things, there’s a good chance that you killed my daughter. Now, you’re trying to frame somebody else for the murder!”
Felicia finally moved from her spot.
“I’m sure we’ll know whether that is true after listening to this.
She tossed the wet tissue aside and rose from her seat. While others directed piercing glares or wary gazes at her, she took a voice recorder out of her pocket.
Talia’s and Kayla’s expressions changed the moment they saw the voice recorder.
Felicia pressed a button on the recorder expressionlessly.
For a moment, there were rustling sounds coming from the voice recorder. Suddenly, there was the sound of someone being slapped followed by Talia’s malicious words.
“Did you not hear me, you dirty wench? I want you to head to the pharmacy and steal the poison stored on the top shelf! Do you hear me?
“Take the poison and find an opportunity to add it to a drink. Make sure Felicia drinks it! Otherwise, I’ll share with the world all the videos of you being assaulted by men in that village. “You’ll forever have to live in the shadows if that happens. Hahaha…”
