Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 1317
Adam was dressed in a military uniform. When he and Anthea entered the building, they were received by a policeman.
After the two of them went up to the third floor, they were led into a room.
The room was not a big one, and there were several black sofas near the wall. There was also a row of desks, on which a number of computers were placed. Some policemen were sitting in front of the desks, and they were wearing earphones. On another wall, there was a gigantic piece of glass. Through the transparent glass, people can see clearly what's happening in a little room next door.
Anthea immediately realized that this must be a surveillance room.
Like plots depicted in movies, the glass was actually made of special material. It allowed people in the surveillance room to see clearly what's happening in the interrogation room, namely, the little room, while people in the interrogation room couldn't see through the glass.
The police officer asked them to sit down on the sofa and fetched two cups of water for them.
"General Chin, Ms. Lee, please wait for a moment. Soon, the fifth interrogation of Madam Jiles will be carried out!"
Adam nodded. "Okay."
Anthea was a little surprised. She hadn't expected that Madam Jiles would be interrogated so many times. Her face looked serious.
However, thinking of the fact that her grandfather's death was not caused by an ordinary car accident, but a deliberate murder, she became very angry.
She was especially angry because Madam Jiles was identified as one of the suspects.
She was Master Hsu's wife!
Even if she was not Master Hsu's first wife, the two of them had lived together for so many years!
If it weren't for the malicious intention of Madam Jiles, Master Hsu would not have been hit to death by a car when he chased Anthea out of the coffee shop. If the Old Master was still alive now, she and Adam could fulfill their filial duties!
Adam had no pity for his mother-in-law at all.
The Chin family and the Hsu family were connected by his marriage. However, his wife, Rory Hsu, died in a car crash three months after the marriage. For this reason, their marriage was only nominal. What's more, so many years had passed. He only respected
Master Hsu in the Hsu family, but the old man had also died.
If it weren't for Madam Jiles' evil conspiracy, he and his little girl wouldn't have to be separated for six years!
At this time, the door of the interrogation room was opened.
Anthea stood up immediately and got close to the glass.
Although the case had not been finally judged by the court, Madam Jiles was wearing a suspect's clothes, as what she might have done was grave crime. At this time, wearing handcuffs, she was taken into the interrogation room by a policewoman.
In just a few days, Madam Jiles had become much more haggard.
She was no longer as arrogant and mean as she used to be as female master of the Hsu family. Her hair was messy, and the wrinkles on her face were deeper. She looked as if she had aged several years. When Anthea thought of the scene that her dear grandpa was lying in a pool of blood, she felt that justice had been done! It served her right!
In order to snatch all the properties and wealth of the Hsu family, Madam Jiles actually conspired to kill her husband!
After Madam was brought in, the police officer sitting opposite her began to formally interrogate her for the crimes she might have committed six years ago.
The police officer knocked on the desk and said sharply, "Ms. Tiles, You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be a testimony in court! Now that both eye-witnesses and material evidence are available, I advise you to confess your crime! Otherwise, we will directly report this case to the procuratorate and go through the judicial procedures..."
"No, I won't admit any crime!" Madam Tiles shook her head and shouted like a crazy old woman, "I can't confess anything. I am not guilty!"
Anthea frowned and finally understood why she had been interrogated so many times.
It seemed that Madam Tiles had refused to cooperate with the police to handle cases, and she also had been very rude to them. However, the authority of the law was not to be provoked. No matter what happened, she would still be punished.
At this time, the door behind the police officer was opened, and a subordinate policeman came in and reported, "Captain, Linzell said that he could confront Ms. Tiles now!"
The police officer pondered for a while and looked at the glass wall. He knew that Anthea and Adam were both in the surveillance room.
According to the normal rules, it would not be proper to allow Linzell to confront Madam Jiles now. However, as this case was special in that it not only involved a rich and powerful family, but also had caused intervention from the military, the police officer thought that special treatment of a special case might be acceptable.
With this thought, he nodded in agreement. "Bring him in!"
Five minutes later, Linzell, who was also in handcuffs, was brought in.
Anthea couldn't help but think of the fire in the abandoned building that day.
Her fingers were trembling, and cold sweat oozed out of her back. She was still fearful of what had happened to her that day. After all, she almost believed that her life would come to an end. Adam's big hand wrapped around hers. The warmth was transmitted from him to her, making her feel very comfortable and safe.
Anthea smiled sweetly at him.
Inside the interrogation room, Linzell and Madam Jiles were sitting opposite each other from a distance.
After the police's inquiry, Linzell explained calmly, "Six years ago, it was Madam Jiles who hired me through an intermediary to murder her husband in a car crash! I mean... She wanted the murder to be disguised as an ordinary car accident. Six years later, she hired me again to kidnap Miss Lee!"
"You wronged me!" Madam Jiles was furious, and she firmly denied it, "I didn't... I didn't kill Old Hsu! Yes, I admit that six years ago, I quarreled with him because of the will he made. I blamed him for being biased and leaving some of his properties to that little bitch who had been raised outside of the Hsu family. At that time I did have evil thoughts and wanted to kill him!
I was mad at him because of the will... I just wanted to kill him, and then all the properties will belong to me and my son!
But... But later I regret it! When my husband returned to the home country that day, I was scared and suddenly felt that it was wrong to kill him. After all, he was my husband. For this reason, I called Linzell and asked him not to kill my husband!"
Linzell retorted, "Madam, you didn't do so!"
"I did!" Madam Jiles roared hysterically.
"You didn't!" Linzell sneered and shouted at her, "You are now deliberately saying this because you want to evade the responsibility of committing a crime.
You want to isolate yourself from this criminal case. That's why you're lying!
"Back then, I was hired by you as a murderer. There is still money in my bank account, which was transferred to me from you. This can be investigated and confirmed by the police. These are all evidence. Don't think about denying it! You killed your husband! You're such an evil old woman! Now, you have been arrested. You'd better confess your crime now, or you'll be punished severely by law!
Dear officers, please investigate this case carefully. This old woman didn't admit her crime because she had committed a capital felony. She wanted me to be the scapegoat. I don't want to bear all the responsibilities for her!"
Linzell acted as if anger for justice filled his breast, and he scolded Madam Jiles angrily.
Madam Jiles, on the other hand, became anxious. She jumped up excitedly, and her whole body was shaking while she retorted Linzell.
The two of them were busy arguing inside the interrogation room, like two dogs fighting each other.
Madam Jiles, who was being scolded by Linzell as the culprit, looked pale and shook her fingers in the air. "You... You... You..."
After all, Madam Jiles was an old woman, and she had been furious for a long time. Her lips turned purple with anger. Suddenly, she rolled her eyes up violently, covered her chest with both hands, and fell straight back.
Anthea's face darkened.
After Adam signaled to the policeman, the two of them entered the interrogation room.
Linzell had been sent back to the detention center. Madam Jiles had fallen down on the chair, while the handcuffs struck the armrests from time to time, making a crashing sound. She was actually gasping for air.
Anthea bent over and examine her quickly. She frowned and said, "It must be a heart attack. We have to send her to the hospital as soon as possible!"
Soon, several policemen carried Madam Jiles away.
The police car roared away, and Madam Jiles was sent to the nearest hospital for first aid.
An hour later, the green military jeep also arrived at the hospital.
Anthea and Adam came out of the elevator and wanted to ask about Madam Jiles' current situation. When they were told that she had passed away, they were both shocked. "What? Madam Jiles is dead?"
