Bound to My Billionaire Ex novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 What? Why?!

Rejoyla stared at the thing with wide eyes in Officer Jackson's hand. Why was there a security camera in her room? Moreover, the camera was made in the style of a drawer handle. Someone must have planned for a long time to put such a surveillance camera in her room. Who could have the ability to do such a thing?

Rejoyla trembled at the thought that Jason had slept in her room last night. She dreaded to think about what would happen after the others saw what the surveillance captured. She could never let anyone see the surveillance. As Rejoyla thought about how she could take the camera out of Officer Jackson's hands, one of them beat her to it!

Jackson probably didn't think that the seemingly soft and delicate Ingrid would dare to take the evidence from him. By the time he realized what had just happened, Ingrid had stomped on the security camera and crushed it with the heel of her 5-inch heels!

Rejoyla sighed with relief, and then squinted at Ingrid, who was afraid that her little affair with Jason would come out and make it difficult for Jacquelyn in the Sterling family. But why would Ingrid want to destroy the surveillance?

Officer Jackson frowned. He felt that there was no need to continue the investigation. Because according to Ingrid's behavior just now, he could be sure that this girl definitely was guilty.

Jason just leaned on the door and witnessed the whole process. At this point, he asked, "Officer Jackson, have you checked it out?"

Hearing Jason's voice, Ingrid shivered. It was then that she realized what she had just done on impulse. Looking around at the suspicious eyes of people looking at her, she felt overwhelmed at once. So, she violently pulled open the second drawer of the bedside table and displayed the contents to everyone.

"Rejoyla, tell us, what were you thinking when you hid a cabinet full of birth control pills in the cabinet? Our family's rules and education have always been strict and decent. You are shameless but don't bring the Sterling family's name into disrepute!"

Now, she couldn't care about anything else. She had just acted suspiciously anyway, and even if what she had done was discovered, she would definitely bring Rejoyla down. If it wasn't Rejoyla, why would she have bribed the maid to testify against Rejoyla? Why would she sneak into Rejoyla's room and be caught on surveillance! And why would she be suspected by the police who came to the door, which would make her be looked down upon by others for sure!

And why would she be suspected by the police who came to the door, which would make her be looked down upon by others for sure!

She had to get Rejoyla out of the Sterling family!

Rejoyla was secretly alarmed. She did have the pill in the second drawer of her bedside table. But she only had one bottle. Why was the second drawer now filled with birth control pills? However, if the person who set her up could put Ingrid's necklace here, it was not an impossible mission to put a cabinet full of birth control pills here.

Rejoyla couldn't figure it out. She didn't know what she had done to offend Miss Ingrid, and why Ingrid had to try to bring her into disrepute!

Well, society nowadays was very open. It was common for couples to live together before they got married. And it wasn't a big deal as long as they were brave enough to deal with the criticism. But a whole drawer of birth control pills would be enough for a woman to take for years. This scene would suggest that she had a questionable lifestyle.

Besides, she was now living in the Sterling family, and she would probably be seen as a bad woman with a slutty lifestyle in the future. But these birth control pills were not hers. Rejoyla didn't want to concede, and she would never admit the things she didn't do!

Ingrid remembered clearly and was so shocked when she saw a drawer full of birth control pills that she forgot her original intention. 'Ha! Rejoyla, let's see how you're going to defend yourself this time!' Ingrid thought to herself as she looked at Rejoyla with glee.

"Ahem, Miss Sterling, where are the pills you mentioned?"

"Just in... Wait... Rejoyla, where did you hide those pills?" Ingrid screamed as she looked at the empty drawer. She had seen the drawer full of birth control pills when she came in just now!

Rejoyla was dumbfounded. She was too confused. Where were the birth control pills in the drawer? She had clearly put the bottle of pills Jason gave her in there.

Hillary took a quick, quiet look at Rejoyla and frowned slightly when she saw Rejoyla's surprised expression. What the h*ll was going on here? Why did she feel like things were completely out of her control? She should have been able to get Rejoyla out of the Sterling family perfectly, but why was every single situation now different from what she had planned?

Jason walked to Ingrid, slowly squatting down to pick up the security camera that Ingrid had stepped on, and held it in his hands to fiddle with it. His voice was cold, not loud, but made everyone present feel the irresistible pressure.

"Now is not the time to focus on those trivial matters. Officer Jackson, you have not answered my question. How's the case going? Don't tell me you don't have a clue about such a simple case. Then I should ask Chief Rechardson how he manages his staff!"

Officer Jackson felt his scalp tingling. He regretted coming to Sterling Manor today. He knew there was a lot of trouble within a wealthy and powerful family like the Sterling family.

By now, the case was clear. Miss Ingrid was a member of the Sterling family, but she for some reason didn't like her grandfather's new stepdaughter, Rejoyla, so she tried to frame her.

"Mr. Sterling, I have almost found out the truth. The security camera you are holding is the best evidence. You should be able to know the truth after you have seen the surveillance!"
