Chapter 430 His Method Worked
Remington remained silent. After getting his acquiescence, Sam turned around to scold Fiona and said, “Remington will let you go this time. Go home! Don’t appear in front of him again! Do you hear me?” Fiona sobbed and nodded, “Yes.” Sam snapped, “Get out of here!” Hearing this, Fiona ran out in panic. Seeing her run away, Sam withdrew his gaze and said, “Remington, thank you for doing me this favor! I have a good idea to make amends for Fiona’s fault. Didn’t you say Cecelia’s birthday is coming around the corner? I will find a good venue, invite the Royal Orchestra, and hold a grand birthday party for her. Do you want to give her a big surprise?” Hearing his suggestion, Remington rubbed his chin. He happened to be worried about how to celebrate Cecelia’s birthday and hadn’t come up with an idea yet. Now, he thought Sam’s suggestion sounded good. “OK! I will count on you!” Remington’s cold aura dissipated greatly, so Sam knew his method had worked and secretly felt relieved. His stupid sister had almost ruined his long friendship with Remington! * After the car stopped in the parking lot of the Taylor Group, Cecelia asked Snow and Fredric to wait for her there. She would go to talk with Maggie alone. After she left, Fredric got a chance to be alone with Snow. So, he stole a glance at her. She had a quiet temperament and was good-looking. Every time he saw her, he wanted to rely on her. She was older than him, giving him a sense of security like a big sister.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Fredric had no resistance to this type of woman. He suppressed his excitement and thought about what to talk to her about. It took him a long time to summon the courage and say, “Snow, do you have any hobbies?” Snow calmly looked at him and replied, “No.” “Wow!” Fredric thought this answer was unique. He had not expected her to have any hobbies. “What have you done the most before?” “Killing people.” Hearing this, Fredric couldn’t help gasping in shock and falling silent. It was indeed hard to chat with her. When their conversation abruptly ended, the atmosphere froze. Fredric awkwardly made an excuse to get out of the car, saying, “Please wait here. I’ll be right back!” When Cecelia slowly walked into the president’s office, Maggie saw her, stood up from the chair, and said, “No wonder I have a weird feeling. It turns out you came here!” Cecelia calmly said, “Mrs. Taylor, I came to see you. How have you been during my absence?” “It doesn’t matter how I am. I heard you returned to the Songo family and inherited the Songo Dyehouse. You are capable!” “I am flattered.” Maggie asked Cecelia to sit down and said, “Miss Linsey, what brought you here today?” “I came to persuade you to surrender yourself!” Hearing Cecelia state her purpose, Maggie sneered, “What do you mean? Do you think I killed Kara?” “It does not matter what I think. The anesthesiologist Jadon has confessed. He killed his wife. You threatened him with it and asked him to kill Kara. The evidence is conclusive. Why don’t you go to surrender yourself? There was no need to be so stubborn.” Maggie was shocked but pretended to be calm and said, “I don’t know him. I have never asked him to do anything. You made a mistake!” Cecelia then played a section of the recording in which Jadon revealed a woman had ordered him to murder Kara but did not mention her name.
The recording alone could not prove Maggie was guilty. But Cecelia believed only Maggie had the motive for the murder. But she must land a killer punch to let Maggie take the initiative to plead guilty. “I came to ask you about it. Since you did not do it, I have nothing to say.” When she got up to leave, she said, “By the way, I met Jersey on the plane back here.” Maggie subconsciously frowned when she heard Jersey’s name. “I feel sorry for him. He was injured while trying to save me. He came to the Cathail Republic to meet me before he fully recovered. So, he fainted on the plane.” Hearing this, Maggie unconsciously grasped her blouse. “After I sent him to the hospital, the doctor asked him to live in the hospital for a while. You have been in Dark Moon before, so you must know him, right? Tobiani was very strict with him. He has been motherless since childhood. What a poor man! Well, I don’t want to talk about it anymore. I must go now. Goodbye!” Then, Cecelia left the office. Maggie’s hands trembled uncontrollably. Thinking of Jersey being injured and hospitalized, she felt so heartbroken that she had difficulty breathing. When tears unknowingly welled up in her eyes, she felt an invisible force whipping her and torturing her soul. When Cecelia left Taylor Group, she bumped into Petunia, who returned. They were on bad terms, so they gave tit for tat when they met again. Petunia blocked her way and warily asked, “Cecelia? Why are you here? What do you want to do in the Taylor Group?” “I came to talk to Mrs. Taylor.” Petunia angrily said, “You came to harass my mother again! What did you say to her?” “I didn’t say anything improper. Don’t make a fuss.” Cecelia did not want to talk to her, so she walked past her. But Petunia stopped her and said, “Wait!” Cecelia stopped her steps and asked, “Miss Taylor, what’s wrong?”
“You should have heard the Cathail Republic will hold a design expo competition soon, right? You are Nyx and own Vera. I am also a designer, and I have Taylor Design. Let’s compete for the gold award!” Petunia would never miss any opportunity to challenge Cecelia. Cecelia asked, “Do you want to compare with me? What if you lose?” “The loser will announce her retirement from the design world and never work as a designer!” Petunia’s tone was fierce because she was determined to fight Cecelia to the last ditch. She had competed with her before but lost. However, she was best at designing. She vowed to kick Cecelia out of the design world after this competition! Cecelia kept silent when they looked at each other. After a while, Petunia snorted, “Why don’t you speak? Are you afraid? Don’t you dare to compete with me?”
