President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Chapter 219: Why Do You Want to Kill Daddy?

“What?” Magnus couldn’t believe what he just heard.

“We have questioned the victim who admitted the couple relationship between her and the suspect but, strangely, the suspect denied it. If you don’t believe me, you can go in and ask him yourself.”

The expression of the female police officer looked complicated when she uttered these words.

It was just that she had been in the police station for a long time and met all kinds of people, so she was not surprised by Joseph’s words.

The time for Magnus to visit Joseph was short. Magnus entered the detention room and saw Joseph. Joseph was frustrated but he had to pretend to be calm.

“Mr. Beckham, I will find a way to settle this matter. I have already contacted the lawyer and he is on his way here.”

“Okay.” Joseph nodded his head, with a gloomy face.

“It’s okay that you quarrel with Ms. Downey, but why do you need to sulk? Why do you deny the couple relationship of you two in front of the police…”

Before Magnus could finish his words, Joseph looked at him with his intimidating eyes. He instantly stopped talking and looked stunned.

He should know that Joseph was his boss and he should pay respect to him and shouldn’t talk bad about him, especially in front of him.

Magnus was so nervous that his back was soaked with sweat.

However, Joseph only glanced at him and ordered him in a cold voice.

“Ask the lawyer to keep his mouth shut. Don’t let grandpa knows this matter. Go find Kevin and tell him that I am arrested. He will have a solution.”

Magnus nodded his head continuously as if he had clutched at a straw, “I’ll go do it now.”

“Wait a moment.”

“What else do you want me to do?”

“Go investigate what the man called Edison had done since he returned to China.”

Magnus was stunned for a moment.

“Yes.”

After all, his boss was still thinking of Mr. Downey, wasn’t he?

It seemed like a lot of things were going to happen in Nanking. On the same night, a storm was about to happen there.

In the villa of the Downey family.

The nanny impatiently went and opened the door when she heard the doorbell ringing. As soon as she opened the door, she covered her nose when she smelled the strong alcoholic smell from Chelsea.

“Chelsea…”

The nanny was not very surprised and she shouted twice to get the maids on duty to bring Chelsea who was unconscious onto the sofa.

The one who sent Chelsea back was the bartender from the bar. It was the third time this week that the bartender brought Chelsea back, and as before, the nanny gave the bartender two hundred Yuan forNôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

troubling him and asked him to leave.

“If Chelsea still goes to the bar tomorrow, make sure she doesn’t drink like this again. What if something happens? She’s getting married soon.”

The bartender nodded, “Don’t worry. Even if she is drunk, I’ll make sure that Chelsea will return home safely.

He was not so foolish that he didn’t want to make money.

Just as the bartender was sent away, she heard a loud vomiting sound from the living room, accompanied by a series of shrieks from the nannies, so she didn’t need to think much to guess what happened.

“You just know how to scream. Quickly clean here. You go pour hot water. You go cook the hangover soup, and you go and get a new carpet from the storeroom…”

When they were busy settling the problem, an exasperated voice came from upstairs, “Chelsea! What’s wrong with you! Why are you so drunk again?”

Sofia rushed downstairs. Seeing the things that Chelsea vomited on the sofa in the living room, she also frowned in disgust and became even more displeased, “Is it a good idea to make yourself look like this? What if your in-laws find out? Do you still want to get married?”

Chelsea was so drunk but she heard her mother’s words of scolding. She stumbled and stood up from the sofa, crying and laughing.

She said, “I don’t want to get married. You can get married. You can find a stepfather for me. I don’t mind!”

Sofia slapped Chelsea with a loud ‘wham’ sound ringing out in the living room.

Sofia’s hand was still raised in mid-air, trembling slightly. “I think you’re crazy. How can you even say such crazy words?

Chelsea covered her face. She looked like she almost sobered up. Gritting her teeth angrily, she said, “Slap me. It’s better if you slap me to death too, so I don’t have to be an indirect murderer. I also don’t have to see my dad’s face at night when I close my eyes to sleep.”

There was dead silence in the living room.

The maids looked at each other in blank dismay.

Sofia’s face turned pale with fright and she glared at the nanny, “What are you looking at? Is it so nice to watch Chelsea saying nonsense after drinking too much? If anyone of you all tells the outsiders about what she said just now, all of you will pack your things and get out.”

After saying that, she dragged Chelsea upstairs while stumbling.

Chelsea was thrown onto the bed. Her long hair was messy on her face and she was lying motionless like a walking corpse.

“Are you crazy?” Sofia was furious. “Do you know what you just said? Do you have to send your mother to jail so that you will feel at ease?”

“It isn’t me who wants to send you to jail. It’s you, mummy. You are the one who sends me to hell.”

Chelsea propped herself up from the bed and sat up. She said while crying, “My daddy had left us all his fortune. Did you see that? But you suspected him and poisoned him without knowing the truth. As a result, he is dead.”

“Shut up!”

Sofia clenched her fist, “This should have been ours. He was willing to make a will to give his fortune to us as he had a conscience. But if he is still alive, how do you know if he will change his mind after a long time?”

“He won’t!”

Chelsea covered her face. Her voice was muffled to the extreme, “It was you who was greedy. It was you who wanted everything, so you killed… you killed my daddy.”

Sofia closed her eyes, and tears were sliding down the corner of her eyes. She looked regretful undoubtedly.

If she had known that Brook would do this to her and Chelsea, she wouldn’t have done such a nasty thing. But in this stage, they could only go on to continue their lives.

“Chelsea, listen to mum. This matter is over. There is no use in crying over the spilt milk. You should stop thinking about this matter. Your daddy died of illness, and it has nothing to do with us at all.”

She sat on the edge of the bed and took Chelsea into her arms, “Tomorrow is the day you will succeed your daddy as the president of the group. You should be happy. This is something that mum has been looking forward to seeing for so many years. It’s finally come true, right?”

Chelsea shook her head desperately, crying uncontrollably.

Ever since she knew that her daddy had left the vast majority of his assets to her and her mother according to the will he made, she could no longer turn a blind eye to what her mother had done.

Every night, she would see her daddy’s loving face when she closed her eyes, and then he would choke her like an evil spirit from hell.

“My good daughter, why did you kill your daddy when I treated you so well?”

It was a nightmare and made Chelsea woke up in a cold sweat. The electronic calendar above her bed showed the time and date. She stared at it for a moment in a daze, remembering that today was the day of her succession. Moreover, the publicity of the company shares and the voting for the executive president for the company by the board of directors would also be held that day.

“Chelsea, have you gotten up yet? Hurry up.”

She could hear her mother’s urging voice from the outside of her room. The undisguised joy in her mother’s tone actually made her feel nasty and she felt like vomiting.
