Chapter 175

Selena’s face turned ashen hearing Eden’s words.

“You are behind what happened that night?”

Eden lowered his voice and laughed.

“Who did you think it was if it wasn’t me? You were knocked out and threw into the room with Jasper, I thought I could reveal the sibling scandal that night but nothing happened. I was confused but I couldn’t reveal it myself and let everyone know I was the mastermind behind.”

Eden’s confidence increased, he sensed Selena’s anxiety through her voice.

He had to escape, the video was revealed and he would end up in prison.

He didn’t want to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Selena’s body was shaken, Jason had been investigating the story behind that incident discreetly since it was a secret, but bore no fruits.

Selena had never expected Eden to be the mastermind behind it, and he was threatening her with it.

She thought of the baby in her womb and if the truth was revealed, how could she ever face Jasper and mom?

“What do you want me to do?” Selena tried to stay calm and said.

“I’ve been locked up in the police investigation room and the police has the video. You knew that if they bring me to court, I will definitely end up in jail.

Get me abroad, I will keep my mouth shut and return all the photos to you. Otherwise, I will expose your scandal with your brother right now, right here, it’s all up to you.”

“I’ve nothing to lose now, either you send me away or we die together on the count of 3, 2, 1...”

Selena blurted, “Wait, I will arrange someone to get you out from the station, hand them the phone, let me talk to them.”

This was the first time Selena used her power to force the officers to hold the investigation. She asked them to wait for her as she would like to question Eden herself.

She is the lady from the Johnson family, the officers didn’t question and did as told.

She dialled Jason’s number right after she hung up.

“Jason, there’s an urgency.”

Jason didn’t know what happened, he smiled.

“I’ve got your ticket ready, how is your preparation going?”

“Jason, we might need to postpone my escape, something is up...”

Selena explained Eden’s threat and what happened that night to Jason.

“I never expected that Eden was the one who put Jasper and me together, he is now locked up in the police station, if I refuse to help, he will expose the truth in front of everyone. Jason, what should I do now? I agreed to help just now but Robert will be furious if I let him go, I can’t do that!”

“Don’t panic, we’ve calmed Eden for now, let’s think of other ways.”

Jason comforted Selena while thinking of another solution.

He had been investigating for so long, he only knew someone escaped that night, he didn’t know that man was sent by Eden.

Selena teared up nervously.

“Jason, Eden has no patience, he only gave me one hour, if we don’t have another solution, what should I do? How should I live?”

Selena cried over the phone, she sounded devastated.

“If you trust me, we have to tell Robert the truth, if we send Eden away ourselves, Robert would know and will ask. So if you trust him, let’s tell him what happened that night, he will definitely keep a secret for you, what do you think?”

Jason understood that Selena didn’t want any third party to know about the incident that night.

But Eden murdered Robert’s sister, it was a huge matter to him.

He would never let this man go easily and would be furious if he found out he got loose, it was better to tell him the truth.

And then find a way to bring Eden out, retrieved the photos and send this man to prison.

“Is this the only way?”

Selena asked while crying.

Jason knew it was an accident and how insecure Selena felt by telling it to another person.

“You understand that this car accident not only involved Wendy’s death but is also to prove Georgia’s innocence. It is important to Robert, it is better, to tell the truth than to deceive him with lies. I’m sure Robert will help you, you are like a sister to him too, have faith in him.”

It had come to this, there was nothing Selena could do apart from nodding with tears.

“Jason, I’m afraid to call Robert, could you call him and ask for his favour, I’m scared...”

It seemed like Selena agreed, Jason let out a sigh.

“Selena, don’t panic, go to the station and keep Eden calm for now while I call Robert. Robert will then send someone to bring Eden out, keep in contact, okay?”

Selena nodded, they discussed what needed to be done and she left for the police station.

On the other hand, Jason called Robert.

He told everything regarding Jasper, Selena and Eden to Robert.

Robert was shocked to receive so much information at once.

“Robert, please keep what I told you a secret, okay?”

“Don’t worry, I knew from the beginning that no one shall know, I understand what you want. And if this is what Selena wants, I will make arrangement accordingly, ask her not to worry.”

Robert called his assistant and made arrangement after his conversation with Jason.

Selena on the other hand brought Eden out of the police station.

In the meantime, a piece of breaking news was released to the online discussion platform.

There was an ongoing discussion about Emma’s brother, Eden had been locked up in the police station and the police was re-investigating Wendy’s murdered case.

It was said that police had received new evidence proving that Eden was the murderer and according to an internal source, it was a video recording.

This breaking news had once again kept the netizens busy.

It was like a drama, the plot twisted every day.

A lot of people had grown bored of Robert, Georgia and Emma, they couldn’t differentiate who was the good and bad one.

They only wanted to know who would be the ultimate winner and who the murderer was.

It was like an X-Files series, everyone wanted to know the ultimate truth.

Robert planned the plot deliberately, he had the video with him and if released, the truth would be revealed.

But Robert had no intention to stop the fight too soon, he wanted to create curiosity amongst the netizens and made them dig deeper into the Lane family.

And then he would reveal the truth slowly.

Most of them doubted this news since there was no picture or video, anyone could say anything they wanted, it was released just to confuse others.

But the netizens’ had become excited, whether it was true or not, a lot were hoping to see the Lane’s next step, and the fight between the wealthy families.

Flora lied weakly on the bed at home.

She had been through life and death just now but no one was there to visit her.

She thought she died but didn’t. She was awake now but felt extremely weak.

The maid that was taking care of her brought her a bowl of plain rice porridge.

“Madame, this is a bowl of plain porridge, do you want it now?”

She stared at the maid coldly and asked with her husky voice.

“Where are the others? Owen, Emma and Eden?”

“Madame, Mr Eden ran away discreetly while Mr Owen and Ms Emma are in a conversation.”

“Eden ran away?” Flora asked in bewilderment.

“Why did Eden run away?”

“I’m not sure, I guess it was something on the internet. Madame, please have some porridge, you’ve been starving the whole day.”

Flora had no appetite, she only wanted to know what happened to her children.

“Call Emma over, tell her if she refuses to come, I will kill myself!”

Owen ordered the servant to take away her mobile and forbidden her from any contact with the outside world.

She could only ask the maid to bring Emma over. She wanted to know what happened.

Emma was speaking to her father tiredly.

“Dad, Laurence had no news on Eden like us. Was it Robert that took him away? Also about the breaking news, was it true or it was just a test from Robert? We’ve destroyed the video recording, do they really have the copy or just boasting?”

Emma scared that Robert really had the video in hand.

If he revealed the video, her lies would be exposed and this war over the internet would be over, she lost.

She really wanted to know whether Robert had the video as he claimed.

Owen couldn’t be sure whether Robert had it or just wanted to confuse them.

He knew that even if Robert didn’t have the video, there must be some other evidence in his hand, this man was torturing them deliberately.

“Emma, you’ve been quite close with the child, has he recognized you as his mother?”

Owen asked about that child again, he felt that he would fail miserably if he faced Robert directly or continued the war over the internet.

The only hope they had was the plan made by Laurence, there was no other way.

“Dad, not yet, he is a five years old boy, it’s not easy to destroy his determination in a short time and build brand new memories. The psychologists and hypnotists said we still need some time.”

Owen was disappointed with the result, he couldn’t depend on Laurence either, and he was not trustworthy.

He needed to find some other ways.

Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison Chapter 174 Threat from Eden Lane The Unexpected Marriage “Emma, there is a high possibility that Eden is with Robert now, let’s forget that I had a son and you had a brother, leave him be. If we are destined to fail, we shall flee this place.”

“Dad, we have come to this?”

Emma asked in disbelief. She didn’t want to be a loser or a fugitive.

“If things get serious, running is our only way to survive.”

Owen said with a heavy heart.

He had decided that if Robert wanted to kill them, he would betray Laurence and fled.

Laurence didn’t help him much anyway, he would bring the child with him. He was Robert’s child, he believed he could flee swiftly with the child in hand.

But Emma asked curiously.

“Dad, apart from Laurence, does the Simpson has any other enemy? If we collaborate with any one of them, we could survive.”

“Emma, the Simpson, Murphy and Johnson are on very good terms, you know Robert, Jason and Jasper are best buddies, they are considered one big family. One who stands against the Simpson meaning standing against the Murphy and Johnson too. No one will collaborate with us apart from Laurence who lost his legs due to Robert and seeks revenge by betting the farm.”

They felt defeated and stay in silence.

Owen’s mobile rang out of a sudden.

It was the private number from Laurence, he answered.

He turned on the speaker so that Emma could listen to what he said too.
