Chapter 489 Interrogation "You planned to kill Viola?"
Ronian didn't believe it and loosened his grip.
Being pinched by Ronian, Jerry's face turned pale, and he breathed harder. But he continued to answer without any guilt, "Ronian, you have not experienced extreme despair. For me, as long as Ormand dies, I don't care whatever it will cost me."
"I loved Viola so much, but she directly ran away with Ormand on the day of the wedding. People laughed at me. I can't forgive her."
"They love each other, and they can be a couple after they go to hell!"
There was a scary smile on his face.
Ronian raised his eyebrows. He saw Jerry's look and withdrew his hand. "You are really a crazy man. You're twisted and sick. But this is good."
Jerry endured the pain in his throat and coughed lightly without any expression.
Ronian stroked his neck with the back of his hand. There were already some red marks on the place he had pinched just now. Ronian's tone became soft.
"You have finished toasting, and there is nothing for you to do in the garden. Go back to your room and rest."
"Got it, Ronian."
Ronian looked away and left.
He went back and joined the bustle in the garden, where he couldn't see Jerry anymore.
Only then did Jerry carefully let out a sigh of relief.
He took out an unopened packet of powder from his pocket and clenched it.
Not long after Ronian left, viola bypassed everyone in the garden and came over to Jerry.
They smiled at each other.
Ronian, who had just returned to the banquet hall, was stopped by Dewey who had just got there.
"Mr. Felton, something happened."
Dewey looked horrible. He leaned close to Ronian and whispered, "Mr. Felton, the key to the top floor is gone. Before the banquet began, only Jerry had got close to me."
Ronian's face gradually changed. His beautiful eyes were filled with anger. He gritted his teeth and growled, "Jerry Felton!"
He turned around and was about to walk into the villa when he was stopped by Dewey. "Mr. Felton, don't be angry. This is just my suspicion. There are so many guests tonight. It is not good to let them know about the top floor. Mr. Hobson is here, and we may cause a stir."
Ronian's rage didn't last long. He looked calm quickly.
He handed his key to the top floor to Dewey and instructed calmly, "Don't tell anyone. Find a chance to go up to the top floor and check if there's anything lost."
"Sure."
Dewey turned and followed Ronian's order.
Ronian said to two bodyguards. "Go upstairs and keep an eye on Jerry. Don't let him leave the room."
Jerry, who had just returned to the room, was pacing back and forth uneasily.
He had given the thing to viola. He was looking for a chance to return the key to the top floor to Dewey.
He observed the situation in the garden from time to time, and when he wanted to leave the room, he found two bodyguards outside his door.
"What are you doing here?"
The two bodyguards respectfully replied, "Mr. Felton said you're not feeling well. Please stay in the room and have a rest."
"I've rested, and I'm fine now. Tonight is my welcoming banquet. I'll go down to greet the guests with Ronian."
The bodyguard looked determined. "No. Mr. Felton said that you can't leave the room. After the banquet ends, he will come to see you."
No matter what he said, these two bodyguards were so stubborn and didn't let him out.
Jerry suppressed his anger and slammed the door shut, isolating himself from the two annoying bodyguards.
He wondered, Ronian is confining me. Could it be that I have been exposed?
He felt his trouser pocket. The key he had stolen from Dewey was still there.
Ormand didn't know what to say. He thought he was so stupid.
"I think these things will be over soon," Viola said as she rubbed the packet.
Ormand hugged her and kissed her on the forehead.
Half an hour later, Kolby, who had just slept, was woken up overnight. He rushed to the laboratory to work overtime.
"Ormand, as we don't know the name of the drug, I can only test the ingredients slowly and match them in the database. This requires a lot of time. I'm afraid I'll get the result only before noon tomorrow. Why don't you go back first? You don't have to wait here."
Since he had said so, Ormand decided to listen to him without hesitation. He and Viola left the laboratory and went home to sleep.
At midnight.
The Felton's house was bright with lights on, and the servants and bodyguards were nervous.
In the hall, the sound of caning kept going on in the dark night, which was horrifying.
Konner and Jennifer were trembling with fear. They stood obediently by the pillar of the hall, scared. They were shivering.
In the corner, there were two broken dark yellow canes.
Jerry knelt on the cold floor, shaking slightly. His head was full of cold sweat, and he turned pale.
He wore a white shirt whose back was stained with blood.
He was overwhelmed by continuous pain. But he clenched his fists and endured silently.
Ronian was standing right next to him, holding a shiny and slippery cane. He mercilessly kept lashing at that injured body.
Crack!
Every time Ronian beat him, Ronian would use his full strength to vent his rage. There was burning anger in Ronian's eyes.
"Tell me where the key is! Did you steal the thing on the top floor? Where did you hide it?"
