The Return Of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife (Joanna)
Chapter 124

Chapter 124

Ingrid and Shaun's faces changed. They began to suspect that Derick had kidnapped Joanna's stin until now.

However, Ingrid was always unreasonable and would argue with anyone even though she did not have advantages. Thus, Ingrid would defend Derick even if Derick did something wrong. Ingrid shouted, "You can't just do what you want to my son, no matter what happens.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you beat my son up like this?" Ingrid shouted and untied her son, distressed.

Roxanne gingerly shook Bruce's arm and said, "Bruce, maybe this is just a misunderstanding.

"Derick is my younger brother. Why can't we talk things out? Why did you have to beat him up like this?"

Shaun also complained, "Joann, Rick is also your younger brother. How can you beat your brother so badly?

"We're a family. Why can't we talk things out? Look at your brother. A sister should never do this to her brother."

Joanna retorted, "Hmph. Derick wouldn't have done such a crazy thing if he treated me as his sister! Why don't you ask Derick what he had done first?" Shaun frowned but still spoke arrogantly, "As long as Ingrid and I are here, you don't have the qualification to teach Derick a lesson, no matter what he did."

Hearing what Shaun said, Joanna was speechless. Joanna did not want to continue the conversation with them. She thought, "I knew it. Dad is always

biased."

Bruce sneered and said, "Your good son is charged with an intentional homicide. It should be enough to condemn him to death!"

When Ingrid heard this, her eyes widened. Then Ingrid retorted sternly, "That's impossible. Who did Rick kill? This is a ridiculous slander to my son!" Bruce replied, "We don't make any slanders. You'll see when the police arrive."

Hearing this, Ingrid lost a little of her aggressiveness and immediately asked Derick, "Rick, what exactly have you done?"!

Shaun anxiously asked Derick, "Did you take Joann's son?"

Derick lowered his head and did not dare to speak. It seemed that Derick admitted what he had done with his silence.

Shaun shouted, "How could you be so stupid? How could you do such a thing?

"Joann is your sister, and her son is your nephew!

"Where's the child? Give back the child to Joann and beg her to forgive you!"

Derick stuttered, "The child..."

Derick was dreadful because he thought that the child was drowned.

Derick said, "Dad, mom, I was just hot headed. It was a one-time lapse in judgment. I didn't do it on purpose."

Shaun suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "What did you do to the child?"

Hearing Shaun's shouting, Ingrid was so scared that she even had goosebumps. She said to Shaun, "Why are you yelling? You scared Rick!" Ingrid said, "Rick, tell me what exactly happened."

"..." Derick suddenly burst into tears.

At this moment, Derick finally felt a lingering fear. He had committed the crime of intentional homicide and would probably be sentenced to death.

Chapter 124

Shaun took several steps back and had a heart attack. Shaun clutched his chest and said, "You... Did you kill Joann's child?"

Ingrid was dumbfounded. She hit Derick in exasperation and shouted, "Derick! Are you out of your mind?

Roxanne was also terrified and cried, "Rick, did you really kill Joanna's child?"

Bruce sneered and said, "Derick threw Irvin into a cistern and almost killed Irvin!"

Ingrid murmured, "Almost killed Irvin?" Ingrid and Shaun were relieved when they heard that.

Ingrid said, "According to what you said, the child is fine, isn't he?"

Bruce replied, "The doctor brought Irvin back to life. If we hadn't interrogated Derick about Irvin's whereabouts and found Irvin in time, Irvin would have drowned!" Ingrid calmed herself down and quibbled, "Well, why do you have to hurt my son like this since the child is fine?

"I won't let you get away from it easily if something happens to my son!"

Knowing the child was fine, Shaun gradually calmed down and said, "Joann, just let it go since your child is safe and sound.

"You have vented your anger by beating Rick up like this. So let's get over it."

Joanna replied, "Heh. Get over it? Dad, that's easy for you. Do you know that Derick threw Irvin into a cistern, and Irvin stayed there for three hours?

As speaking, Joanna could not help crying again and said, "I can't even imagine how Irvin got through it!"

Joanna could not imagine how terrified Irvin was when he soaked in the water for three hours.

Ingrid said, "Then what do you want? You also hurt my son. Shouldn't you compensate my son for medical expenses?

"Joanna, your son is still alive, isn't he? We didn't accuse you of harming my son. Why are you exactly doing here?" Ingrid put her hands on her waist and glared at Joanna aggressively.

Shaun sighed deeply and said, "Get over it. Rick is immature. He just had a moment of madness. You are his sister and should take the lead to stop this fight.

"We'll bring Rick back home now. You probably should also take care of your son. Don't worry. I will teach Rick a lesson when we are home."

Shaun put it lightly to erase Derick's crime as if Derick had played a prank.

Joanna sneered and replied, "Derick committed a crime of intentional homicide. I've already called the police. I'll let the police take over this case."
