The Cowells panicked when they heard this.‘Clara’s the one in trouble right now. Not the whole family.’At that thought, Francis was the first to speak up. “I’ve been a little busy recently, sir. I’ve got no idea what my cousin’s been doing so I’d like to retract my statement. I have no idea where Clara was at the time.”Hugo followed suit and said, “Me too! I’ve been busy with work so I wasn’t paying attention to her whereabouts.”Nathan was instantly enraged when he heard this. ‘They’re abandoning Clara like cowards now?! Does family mean so little to them?!’Honestly, was there a single Cowell who actually cared about each other? Were they all not just looking out for themselves?Clara’s world started falling apart when she saw Francis and Hugo backing out from being her alibi.In fact, even Violet joined in and said, “I haven’t been paying attention to where Clara has been. However, we’ll be sure to assist with your investigation.”“Grandmother…” Clara had not expected Vio

All the Cowells trembled and fell into a daze when they heard Adrian’s command.Clara, who seemed as though she was about to pass out, suddenly came back to her senses and cried once more.“Please, sir! Please!” she yelled with her tear-filled face.As the saying goes, those who seem pitiful probably did something to deserve it.‘She looks absolutely nothing like the hateful woman she is while doing all those things in the past…’ Adrian took a deep breath. ‘I’ve seen too many cases like hers. Unfortunately, one must pay the price for their actions.’Meanwhile, Nathan and Tracy were on their feet, begging on Clara’s behalf. The latter had turned mad from despair.At that very moment, Adrian suddenly removed his mask and revealed his chiseled face. A look of recognition instantly flashed through the eyes of every Cowell present.Violet’s jaw was the first to drop as her mind buzzed. She stared at Adrian in a daze.Nathan’s mouth was wide open as well. ‘That face… That face… I-It’

As Clara was taken away, the rest of the Cowells lay limply on the ground. None of them were able to utter a single word, including Violet.Instead, she simply shed a few tears for Clara’s sake.After that, Samantha rushed up to Violet and said, “I doubt you’ll want to live anymore once Clara is dead. As harsh as this may sound, you’re the sole reason why Clara is in this mess today. The same goes for Hugo and Nathan. You’re also to blame for how they turned out.“You chose to look down on others you see as lesser than you. Plus, you squandered all of Grandfather’s inheritance. Despite all this, you refused to realize your mistake and even thought you were a very successful person. However, there is one thing that you’ve successfully achieved…“You’ve damned a perfectly good family all on your own.”Samantha was no longer holding back her punches against Violet. Instead, she spoke the words that have been lingering in her mind for the longest time. After all, she now had the chanc

The next day, Samantha cast away the distracting thoughts in her head and returned to work with Joanna.The situation with the Cowells was calm and no one came to find Samantha.Adrian called Daniel early in the morning. He asked, “Has Seth been apprehended?”Daniel answered, “He has. However, he insisted that Clara is the murderer and he isn’t involved. Moreover, the De Forrest family found a bunch of witnesses to provide him with alibis. We don’t have adequate evidence right now so we have no choice but to release him.”The Battle Warrior Department did not have the authority to detain a person for more than twelve hours without adequate evidence.“Also, Seth's father, Tristan De Forrest, is rushing over to take him back to Northrive. If we don’t produce solid evidence, the boy will flee.”“Where is Seth now?” asked Adrian.“Swallowston Bar.”“All right, I’ll go look for him,” said Adrian.After hanging up the call, Adrian drove straight to Swallowston Bar.***Meanwhile,

Seth never expected the legate to be so violent.If he had known, he would not have had the courage to oppose the legate.Seth thoroughly regretted his action. Even if he were to live, he would be a cripple without arms. What would be the point of living that way?It was a grave error in misjudgment.Seth had no idea that one error could destroy his entire life.Under such unnerving circumstances, he began to break down.***Under the close watch of everyone in the bar, Seth was arrested and taken to the Battle Warrior Department.Soon after, Clara and Seth were transferred to Internal Affairs and Simon’s murder case became widely known throughout Swallowston.The department presented evidence to Internal Affairs that Clara and Simon were the culprits in the case.Over the next few days, many people in Swallowston followed the case closely.Three days later, Internal Affairs announced that Clara and Seth had been convicted of murdering Simon. Moreover, it was revealed that t
