Chapter 654

“What about you? What do you want to do?” Ultimately, he valued Sophie’s opinion because the

person Jennifer had offended was her.

Sophie did not want to be so ruthless, but she wanted Jennifer to pay for what she had done.

In the interrogation room, Jennifer was covered in a cold sweat. Naturally, she was involved in

everything related to Whitley Group.

However, she remembered Timothy’s words and denied all charges. Timothy took all the responsibility

for Jennifer’s offenses instead.

Unfortunately, the evidence provided by Sophie was too convincing. It was proven that Jennifer played

a vital part in this case.

Therefore, the interrogation went on.

“I already said I don’t know anything about what you guys talked about. How many times do I have to

repeat myself?” Jennifer got impatient.

Being detained in the interrogation room was too stressful for her. If the questioning did not stop, she

would go insane.

The interrogator noticed her mental breakdown, but they were not in a hurry as they said, “Ms. Whitley,

we already have proof of your crime. Not admitting guilty won’t help. We know you’re getting annoyed,

so why don’t you confess to everything? Then we can all get some rest.”

Truth be told, the police were also tired.

They had to stay here with her and waste their time on her.

“I don’t know anything, so what do you want me to confess?” Jennifer was adamant about denying it.

“Okay. Looks like we can only show you something.” The interrogator was fed up.

They just wanted to close this case as soon as possible and go home to rest.

When Jennifer saw those documents, her hands trembled.

“No. This isn’t my doing. These have nothing to do with me. Someone must be trying to frame me!”

Jennifer turned pale.

Even so, she would not admit to anything.

There was no way she would confess to such a thing.

Jennifer really did not want to go to jail. Timothy had already been incarcerated. It would be the end of

the Whitley family if she were to join her father.

“Ms. Whitley, these are the evidence. Even if you deny it, you can’t change the fact that you’ve

committed a crime,” the interrogator said.

They used some tricks and finally got Jennifer to confess to her crimes. She could not withstand the

pressure any longer.

The interrogator shook their head at the pale-looking woman in front of them. “All right, I’m done. Lock

her up.”

In the past, Whitley Group had been very magnificent. Everyone had always been filled with envy at the

mention of Jennifer.

Yet, today, she had fallen from grace.

One should not commit crimes. Once they do, they are bound to pay for their crimes someday.

Early in the morning, Ysabelle came to Sophie’s condominium with breakfast.

Tristan had a cold expression as he looked at the uninvited guest at the door. Can’t this girl sleep

longer on such a cold day? Why must she come here?

“Uncle Tristan, is Sophie awake? I brought her favorite breakfast to share with her,” Ysabelle asked

carefully.

She knew Tristan did not welcome her presence. However, she had no choice.

Ysabelle only wanted to visit Sophie and see if the latter was okay, and that was it.

“She’s up.” Tristan’s response was curt. He initially did not want to let Ysabelle in, but since she

brought Sophie’s favorite breakfast, he allowed her to enter.

Ysabelle and Felix entered the unit together and spotted Sophie coming out of her bedroom.

“Sophie, I bought your favorite food for breakfast. Come and eat!” Ysabelle said with a wide smile.

“Didn’t you just return to the country? Why didn’t you get some more rest at home? What are you doing

here so early in the morning?” Sophie asked. Ysabelle should be very tired after returning from

Koandria. She did not need to drop by.

“I heard something happened to you, so I couldn’t sleep. That damned Jennifer is a lunatic!” Ysabelle

was incredibly furious. “Why is there such a trashy person in the world?”

“All right, that’s enough. Why are you so angry? Since she’s done something bad, she will have to pay

for it,” Felix placated Ysabelle, seeing that she was so mad.

It was not worth it to get so angry at someone unimportant.

“I know, but I’m still pissed! How dare she frame Sophie? I want to rip her into pieces! Anyway, has she

confessed?” Ysabelle asked Felix. She was too busy worrying about Sophie and did not get to know

much about this incident.

Felix nodded. “She has. Timothy wanted to shoulder all the responsibility, but it was not that simple.

Jennifer was indeed involved.”

Since Jennifer did take part in it, there was no way she could escape all responsibilities.

“All right, you don’t have to bother with this case anymore, Felix. Just accompany Ysabelle. I already

have Sean on the task,” Tristan said.

Sean was a lawyer and also the best candidate to follow up on the case.

Felix was touched.

He never expected Tristan to be so thoughtful.

“Uncle Tristan, you’re the best!” Ysabelle was also moved. She and Felix had not spent time together

for a week now.

The four of them ate breakfast together, and Felix cleaned the table once they were finished.

“Is everything okay at Tanner Group? Is there anyone who should be kicked out after this incident?”

“Yes, and that’d be James.” James was also involved in the incident this time, so they could not spare

him.

Sophie had an indifferent expression on her face.

In the past, she did not think of doing anything to James. Yet little did she expect him to work together

with Jennifer. Since that was the case, she could not let him be anymore.

“You can’t let him off the hook,” Felix said. They must not let a traitor run free.

After the meal, Tristan brought Sophie to handle James’ matters.

Soon, James was arrested by the police.

Upon seeing Sophie, James immediately knelt on the floor.

“Ms. Tanner, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Please give me another chance! I won’t do this again!” James

begged on his knees although he was already old. “I promise! I know what I did was wrong. Jennifer

forced me to do it. She even promised to double my salary!”

At that point, James could only think of keeping himself safe.

He could not do anything about how Jennifer would end up.

“James, haven’t I warned you before? You could’ve retired peacefully and enjoyed your pension. Why

did you have to do this kind of thing?” Sophie lifted her eyebrow in a beautiful arch, but her expression

was incredibly frosty. “You also know that Tanner Group is Grandpa’s hard work and effort. How dare

you harm the company! Do you think I will show you mercy?”

James was enraged. “Sophie, don’t go overboard! No matter what, I’ve worked for Old Mr. Tanner in

the past! How could you do this to me?”
