Nelson had planned to hand Stacy over to Linda, but he changed his mind, and decided to question Stacy himself. It was almost 11 p.m, and Linda would certainly be asleep.
"I have no idea what you are talking about, Mr. Li."
Nelson frowned, "You think we will let you off if you keep denying it?"
Stacy's face remained lowered.
"There's nothing to deny because I didn't do anything. I was just an ordinary servant who worked for the Nalan clan for more than a decade. You and your men forced me to come with you for no reason. I...I can sue you for that, you know! "
"Sue us? Let's see you try."
Nelson would not go easy on anyone who wanted to harm Linda. Besides, he had sufficient evidence against Stacy and the puppeteer pulling her strings. He had to find who the mastermind was at all costs.
After hearing Stacy defend herself, Nelson chuckled. If he hadn't have enough proof, he wouldn't have brought Stacy back.
Now Nelson's first task was to find out who gave Stacy the orders, because she was just a servant who had nothing to do with Linda. There's no way she had a motive and the nerve to harm Linda.
Nelson bombarded Stacy with a lot of questions. But she remained stark silent, which played on Nelson's patience.
For an instant, Nelson thought beating her up would be a way to make her tell the truth. But he finally dropped the idea. After all, using force was illegal.
Now Nelson didn't know what to do.
He decided to let Stacy stay at the room which she had lived in, for a night, to work out what to do next tomorrow.
Nelson ordered two of his men to guard the room in case Stacy wanted to sneak away.
Even though Nelson tried not to attract attention when they got home, Rosy still learnt of her capture.
They caught Stacy Kang?
Rosy began to panic.
She called Jessie immediately.
"Where are you?"
Jessie was annoyed because Rosy's call had interrupted her in the middle of the night.
She was in a hotel now, with her father's friend, Making every effort to please him. She was afraid that Rosy would know what she was doing, so she answered in a sort of guilty haste.
"I...I am at home..."
"Come to me now! Something is up. You remember the servant Stacy?"
"What's wrong?"
"I just saw Nelson bring her here. We have to work out a solution in case she betrays us. Once grandfather learns about what we have done, he will not go easy on me."
Jessie glanced at the man beside her and was at a loss on how to act properly.
If she left right now, she would lose the Hermès handbag she had been craving for so much.
"Well... I'm in the middle of something. Can I come to you tomorrow? No need to worry. Stacy assured us that she won't betray us even if she is caught. She has a lot to loose if she does. Calm down."
