My Delusional Driver Got Herself Jailed

Chloe Morrison's expression darkened further, and she looked like she wanted to say more.I put on my headphones and closed my eyes to rest. Only then did Chloe reluctantly shut her mouth and focus on driving. I was already exhausted from working overtime, and dealing with this only made things worse.Chloe used to be my mother's driver, and Mom had given her glowing reviews. She drove smoothly enough that even someone like me, who got carsick easily, felt comfortable during the car ride. That was why I asked for her to be reassigned to me after I started taking over the company and needed to travel more frequently.When the car pulled up to my house, I got out. She suddenly grabbed my wrist. "When did you buy that watch?"Her interrogating tone annoyed me. I pulled my hand away. "It's none of your business!"I ignored her completely and walked straight into the house, which meant I did not catch whatever else she muttered under her breath after that.I had just finished eating

Chloe tried to snatch my backup phone.Her three brothers kept rambling beside her. One moment, they said I should learn to help out my future brothers-in-law. The next, they said men should hand all their money over to their wives.Then, they started prying into how much my company earned annually. Every word dripped with greed.The car Mom arranged arrived quickly. I kicked Chloe away and got in, leaving them behind.Once I finished negotiating this deal, I would settle accounts with them properly! However, I never expected that the moment I met with my business partner, Chloe burst in with her three brothers.The group of them caused such a commotion that they drew stares from all directions. Chloe grabbed my arm."So this is what you've been doing! Sneaking around with some home wrecker! You use women and toss them aside like trash!"The woman from the partner company froze, her smile vanishing instantly."What's going on here, Mr. Cross?" Pauline Harper's refined features

Jack kept rambling, "Evan, listen to me. Running a company alone makes you an easy target for schemes. Once we get back home, we'll throw a few parties, and you'll be part of the Morrison family. Then you can hand over that company of yours, and we'll manage it for you."John chimed in, his greasy hand casually wiping across my newly purchased designer suit."Exactly. We've got a big family to back you up. Every family back home has multiple sons. That's how you support each other. Your family only has you, which shows bad genes. Our Chloe will give you plenty of sons in the future."The emergency call had already connected, but because I had muted it, I could not hear the voice on the other end. I forced down my disgust and turned my head slightly, tapping Morse code on my smartwatch.Just then, Tom suddenly noticed the smartwatch on my wrist. His eyes sharpened, and he reached over and snatched it away.He fiddled with it twice, saw 'Emergency Call' on the screen, and exploded i

Just then, an officer knocked and entered. "Captain Daniels, Chloe and her family are demanding to see Mr. Cross. They say they have something to tell him."I hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded. "I'll see them."I wanted to see what they could possibly have to say at this point.The door to the interrogation room opened. Chloe and her three brothers were brought in.The arrogance they once carried had completely vanished, replaced only by panic and resentment.The moment Chloe saw me, she threw herself at the iron bars. Officers held her back firmly."Evan! Please let my brothers go! This is all my fault. It has nothing to do with them! I was confused. I forced them to help me!""Chloe! How can you say that?" Jack panicked immediately, crying out. "How is this your fault? It's obviously this bastard who's no good!"Chloe looked even more moved. She continued pleading with me, her eyes red. "Evan, my mom was always busy when I was little. My three brothers raised me the

Jack, John, and Tom were found guilty of conspiracy to kidnap, assault, and incitement. They were sentenced to seven years, six years, and five years in prison respectively.The moment I heard the verdict, the weight I had been carrying finally lifted.Listening to the wails of Chloe's three brothers, I felt immensely satisfied.I thought the matter was finally over, but I never expected that Chloe's parents, with help from someone unknown, would travel from their rural hometown and contact some unscrupulous media outlets to fabricate lies and smear my reputation.They claimed I was 'a rich man who despised the poor' and had deliberately framed Chloe and her brothers to escape my obsessive ex-girlfriend. They also said I had a 'messy private life' and that I had used my wealth to take advantage of countless young women.They even invented a false scenario where I 'assaulted ordinary working people', painting themselves as victims.The two of them knelt outside my company building
