Remarriage: My CEO Husband
Chapter 136 Sophia Committed Suicide For Fear Of Punishment

The city, which was not a big city before, was now like walking one hundred and eight thousand miles for Sophia. It took her a lot of effort to reach the address given by Bessie. On the rooftop of building 18 in B District.

When she stepped into the elevator, Sophia kept murmuring to herself. Thinking that her mother might be bullied now, Sophia felt very regretful.

She and Andrew were from two different worlds. Why was she so stubborn at the beginning! And why was she so naive to get involved in this matter! If something happened to her mother, Sophia would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.

The night was so quiet that Sophia felt more uneasy.

Fortunately, she arrived at the rooftop directly by elevator, and there was no need for her to replace a way to climb up. To Sophia's surprise, she knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response. Only the sound of rain outside could be heard.

With a trembling hand, Sophia opened the door. Sophia's mother was tied to a plastic chair, with wounds all over her body. What's more, she was even more embarrassed and wet after the rain shower. In a moment of desperation, Sophia untied her mother first.

Then she took off her coat and put it on Sophia's mother. She said softly, "Mom, I'm sorry. I'm late."

Obviously, Sophia's mother was surprised to see Sophia in a wheelchair, but she didn't say anything all the time. She just thought that Sophia's mother was frightened by Bessie's people.

Just as Sophia's mother was walking out of the community with the help of Sophia, her phone suddenly rang.

It was from Bessie.

"Don't leave in a hurry, Sophia. I've fulfilled my promise to let your mother go. But what about you? Didn't you say that you would help us?"

Looking at her mother who was in a mess, Sophia frowned and gritted her teeth. "Then tell me, how should I help you?"

On the other side of the phone, Eunice smiled evilly. She was glad that the fish was hooked as she wished!

"Don't worry. I bought a ferry for your mother. You can let her take that to Canada. It's still a long way to the dock. The ship will sail in an hour. Go and see your mother off." Before Sophia could react, Bessie hung up the phone.

However, what Bessie did was exactly what Sophia wanted. She was really worried about her mother. She would not be relieved until she saw her mother was taken to the ferry and the boat was started. Sophia's mother trembled with fear. Holding her hand, Sophia said in a trembling voice, "Mom, I know I'm an unfilial daughter. I've always been blaming myself for my father's death. I will try my best to protect you from any harm, but that's all I can do. They will take you to the ship later. You just go first and then I will come to you.

Hearing what Sophia said, Sophia's mother nodded and shook her head in confusion.

At the wharf.

Sophia's mother stood still with tears in her eyes. Unwilling to leave, she held Sophia's hand tightly.

Helpless, Sophia shook off mother's hand and said, "Mom, you can leave now. I'm fine. I'll go to Canada to see you after I finish my work here. It's windy here. Be careful not to catch a cold."

A man in black appeared in front of Sophia and said with a ferocious look, "Are you Sophia Lin? Bessie told us to escort your mother abroad. You don't need to worry about the rest. "

At that moment, Sophia still hoped that as long as Bessie could get what she wanted, she would not do anything excessive.

Seeing mother leave reluctantly, Sophia felt comfortable with every step her mother took.

It was not until the ferry was started that it was a black ship specially for the stowaways. It looked like a cargo ship, but in fact, it was used to carry passengers.

She had to praise Bessie for her flawless actions.

The ferry was getting farther and farther away from her sight until it became a black dot.

When Sophia was about to return, the two men in black who hadn't left just now stood behind her and pressed her wheelchair tightly.

"What are you doing?" Sophia snapped.

The two men in black chuckled, "Of course we have to do the job that Bessie gave us. Didn't you promise her before that you would die?"

Go to hell? Wasn't she pretending to be dead?

Sophia's heart skipped a beat.

Just before she could react, two men in black pushed her hard, and she fell into the sea in a wheelchair.

A big mouthful of bitter sea water soaked into her nose. Sophia felt that her body was getting heavier and heavier, and she wanted to struggle deeper and deeper. Gradually, she lost consciousness.

She didn't know when a warm arm suddenly wrapped around her. Sophia felt that her body was floating upward.

Then she was unconscious.

The two men in black, who had seen Sophia sinking into the sea, laughed and said, "It's easy to get the two hundred thousand. I didn't expect Bessie to hire us to solve a disabled person. Ha ha ha, I have to go back and finish my work!"

As soon as Bessie received the news that Sophia had sunk into the river, she immediately let the media know.

It was too late when David and Adela knew it! Standing in the cold wind, Adela cried out, "How could it be possible? I don't believe that Sophia would commit suicide at all! How could she jump into the river herself?"

Several popular actors hired by Bessie stood in front of the police, saying that they had seen a girl in a wheelchair push a wheelchair into the sea.

"You are all talking nonsense. She is not that kind of person at all!" Adela hysterically insisted on fighting with those people, but it did not work at all.

The police only believed in the evidence.

Unfortunately, there was no monitoring at all in this dock. In addition, there was indeed the track of wheelchair sliding on the ground. As for the footprints, the ferry that had just been activated was naturally crowded.

The police had no way to investigate and could only send people to salvage it.

Until half past three the next afternoon, Adela sat on the shore of the dock without eating or drinking, staring at the calm sea in front of her.

There were so many people around, and the salvage team didn't stop at all.

Twenty-four hours passed.

"Miss Adela, we have tried our best. There is no movement for twenty-four hours. We didn't see Miss Sophia's corpse at all. The sea water is flowing so fast that I'm afraid we won't be able to see anyone in the world if we salvage it. "The policeman tried his best to persuade her.

Adela rolled her eyes at the police, "Is this how you police do things? She's gone. Could you solve it by saying no way?

The police could do nothing about it, but at the same time, they understood how Adela felt at the moment. After all, they had experienced a lot of such things.

"Miss Adela, please restrain your

grief. From the surveillance video outside the dock, we can see that Miss Sophia escorted Sophia's mother to the dock. There are no footprints of Sophia's mother on the sea, so Miss Sophia should be the only one who jumped into the sea. According to the previous records of the dock, Miss Sophia's mother was also there." The policeman took out the file and explained to Adela in

detail.

It was not that she didn't understand, but Adela just couldn't accept it for a moment.

David helped Adela back home.

"I don't think it's a good time to be sad. Now the media is talking about the news that Sophia has committed suicide. What about your grandmother? And Andrew, should we choose to hide it from them or tell them the truth?" David still kept calm. He knew that if the two of them broke down at the moment, it would be a mess.

Adela didn't say anything. She curled up on the sofa with her legs crossed and looked at the sky outside the window. After a long time, she said hesitantly, "I think it's better to be frank. The day after tomorrow, Andrew will be sentenced. Even if we are lying, we can't give her back to the Li Family!"

The next morning.

It was drizzling outside. Adela and David, dressed in black, got out of the car, holding an umbrella with black camellias.

Adela hesitated because she saw Li Family's car.

Andrew's grandmother must have known the truth now. She was a little flustered and grabbed a corner of David's coat with one hand.

"Don't be afraid. Grandma won't blame us. It's not all your fault. After all, if someone really wants to take Sop away, we can't do anything even if we sleep beside her. "

David's words comforted Adela.

Andrew's grandmother got out of the car. She was also wearing a black Chanel fixed hair suit. Her expression was very serious, and she was no longer as amiable as she was when she met Adela before. Seeing Adela, Andrew's grandmother nodded slightly and said, "Adela, come here."

Adela with trembling steps, Andrew's Grandma held her arm and said gently, "I believe my granddaughter in law won't do such a stupid thing. There must be a plot behind it. But we have to keep our manners in the court later. "

Adela nodded and followed Andrew's Grandma closely.

In the court.

Andrew stood there tiredly in his prison uniform.

His eyes seemed to be searching for something, but he failed.

After seeing the expression on Adela, Andrew was a little confused, but he didn't have the chance to ask.

Even if Adela didn't listen to the judge's words, she could think of such crimes as commercial fraud. What she was thinking about was how to explain to them about what happened to Sophia when Andrew came out of the prison after he was sentenced?

Andrew's Grandma, on the other hand, had been calm all the time. But she shed tears silently and said in a low voice, "The Li Family is broken up."

Just as the judge was about to pronounce the sentence, a man suddenly broke into everyone's sight.

It was Bessie. She walked to Andrew's lawyer in a hurry with a document in one hand. The lawyer glanced at her and made an appeal, "Your Highness, I have one more thing to add. Something about the financial loophole of Li Group has been changed."

The freedom of speech in the court could be debated in words, so the judge would not forbid it.

"The financial loophole of the Li

Group has been verified by the

police that it was all done by

Andrew's wife, Sophia. Sophia had already learned that Andrew was going to have a trial last night and committed suicide. The police had already shown enough evidence. They couldn't track the corpse, but it had been more than twenty-four hours. The evidence of Sophia's suicide is conclusive. Please have a look." The lawyer's statement stunned Adela.

She had no idea what the lawyer of Andrew was talking about! ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
