Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 420

Chapter 420 Be The Scapegoat

The sudden gunshot caused chaos.

Kathleen immediately stood up and walked over to Vanessa while Samuel checked on Vanessa and found that she was no longer breathing.

Tyson had sent people to go after the shooter, and the other subordinates dismissed the reporters at the scene.

Looking at Vanessa, who got shot in the forehead, Kathleen uttered flatly, “I didn’t expect her to die like this.”

Samuel replied indifferently, “It seems like Luna doesn’t want Vanessa to tell the truth.”

“Does she think killing Vanessa is enough to hide what she’s done?” Kathleen scoffed. “This only proves that she’s feeling guilty.”

“We should wait for Tyson’s findings before doing anything.”

Kathleen turned toward Rory. “Take her body away.”

“Got it.” Rory nodded.

After a while, Tyson came back with the other subordinates.

Judging from his expression, one could tell he had failed to capture the shooter.

Kathleen took a deep breath. “Luckily, we still have a piece of evidence to prove Luna is the mastermind.”

“You mean the piece of evidence left by Vanessa?” Samuel inquired in a deep voice.

She nodded. “Ask your men to work on that piece of evidence. Otherwise, we’ll be the scapegoat for the death of Vanessa.”

“Don’t worry. We won’t get blamed for this.” Samuel nodded in response.

“These people are getting more and more daring.” Kathleen clenched her fists.

I won’t let them off!

Half an hour later, the evidence kept by Vanessa was disclosed to the public, and it implied that Luna was the mastermind.

What was more unexpected was the plummet of the Hoover family’s company stocks.

Even the company’s market value dropped by billions.

When Kathleen got the news, she went to meet Samuel and asked, “Was it you?”

Samuel nodded, admitting that he was the one who caused the drop in numbers.

Kathleen widened her eyes in surprise.

“Why are you so shocked? It’s merely a minor thing,” Samuel stated self-mockingly, as his health condition did not permit him to help her in things that involved physical strength.

Hence, he figured he could use his intelligence to assist her.

“A minor thing?” Kathleen stared at him with her arms crossed. “If it were my company that lost billions in an hour, I would’ve gone berserk.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll help out if your company faces any trouble,” Samuel promised.

“Gosh! Knock on wood!” She frowned. “My company is going to have a ribbon-cutting ceremony after a few days. Try not to say anything negative about it.”

Samuel’s lips curled into a smile. “Then, I wish for you to earn more money and take care of this useless person.” He pointed at himself.

Kathleen had no words to reply to him.

Meanwhile, a lady with a gorgeous appearance arrived at the Hoover residence. Then, another woman opened the car door for the former. “Old Mrs. Hoover is waiting for you.”

The gorgeous lady nodded.

When she reached the door to Luna’s room, she knocked before entering.

Upon seeing her, Luna stated with an impassive countenance, “Your face seems well sculpted.”

The gorgeous lady touched her face and grinned in confidence. “It’s all thanks to your great help, Old Mrs. Hoover. You found a good doctor for my plastic surgery and to treat my legs.”

“Since I’ve done so much for you, you should do something in return,” Luna said frostily. “Why is Vanessa still alive?”

“She’s dead now.” The gorgeous lady seemed a bit anxious.

“But she left evidence, didn’t she?” Luna was displeased. “Now the evidence implies that I’m the culprit. If you want me to continue to help you, you need to come up with a solution to this.”
