Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 428

Shirley was so nervous that her hands trembled and started to shake the dagger. As a result, the sharp dagger created a striking wound on Joy's neck. All of a sudden, blood gushed out of her neck.

Joy shrieked with pain, looking like she was in deep pain.

Unable to take it, Joy lost her consciousness. Seeing this, Shirley felt even more nervous. She wanted to continue holding Joy hostage to threaten the police. However, she found it extremely hard to drag Joy's heavy body in this state.

Seeing the confusion on Shirley's face, the police surrounding her started to take immediate actions.

Every cop present there almost pounced on Shirley at the same time. Yet their purposes differed.

Some of them were snatching the dagger; some of them were rescuing Joy; some of them were suppressing Shirley...

In a matter of seconds, there was a shift in the atmosphere.

At last, Shirley was successfully caught and arrested by the police. When she was suppressed, she still tried yelling in panic and did all that she could do in order to resist.

But she was just a weak and feeble woman. Resisting several powerful policemen wasn't something she was capable of doing.

Shirley's hands were tied behind her back, but she glared at Billy fiercely. "Damn it. Do you want to play dirty with me now? They attacked me from behind while I wasn't noticing. In addition to that, you even deluded me..."

"It is because you are stupid," Billy retorted, stopping her from continuing. Coldly staring at her, Billy's eyes turned to the police car. "Get her into to the police car and make sure to keep an eye on her. This woman is full of deceit. Don't be tricked by her, or else she will run away."

"Yes, sir."

Shirley knew then that there was no point in struggling anymore. Knowing that nothing would help, she decided to calm down. As she walked over to Jean, a sort of sarcastic smile made its way to her face. Then, she said in a low voice,"Jean, you and the damn police have conspired to frame me. Let me tell you that I will not let you live a peaceful life. Mark my words......"

"Hey, this isn't something new. You have always tried to bring me down. But I am still alright, right? Now you can rot in the prison. Do you think you will have any chance to play your little tricks while you are inside? I think you better worry about yourself. I've heard that prison life is hard!" Jean replied, looking victorious.

It was just a few sentences but Shirley's face turned livid with rage. Sitting inside the police car, her face was red with anger.

After the car was out of their view, Ian and Billy came over to Jean. Ian warmly reached out his hands and held Jean's softly. He was very thankful to her and couldn't think of a way to show it.

Even Billy, who originally looked as cold as ice, couldn't help passing Jean a grateful look.

After bidding farewell to everyone present, Jean got onto the car and looked out of the window with her tired face. This had been a long day and Jean was in serious need of some rest. The whole commotion left her feeling fatigued. Gazing outside, she started to play everything that happened today in her mind. Slowly, she let out a sigh.

'Shirley is arrested and Joy is being sent to the hospital. Carlos and his men are caught and taken to the police station. He should be convicted of the crime based on his oral confession.

Everything is being handled well, ' realized Jean. Yet Jean was not content. Somewhere deep down, something was bothering her but she couldn't understand what it was.

'Shirley's words didn't scare me nor am I worried about her living in the prison. Then why am I still not in a good mood?' wondered Jean.

Inexplicably, no matter how hard she tried, she was still in a sour mood.

Sitting beside Jean, Zed noticed the look on her face. After discerning her low spirits, he wrapped Jean in his arms, wanting to lift her spirit. In a caring tone, he whispered,"What's wrong?"

Jean shook her head immediately on hearing his voice. "I am just tired," she replied.

This wasn't exactly a lie because she was very tired. She had spent hours dealing with this mess. It began at night but now she could see the faint streaks of dawn in the sky.

Jean didn't feel better until they got back to the Qi house.

The moment they reached near the gate, they saw Moore walking out, looking anxious. "How are you both? Are you okay?" he asked without wasting a second.
