Victor smiled, gently touched his smooth chin with two fingers, and said sarcastically, "I am not a good person. I will leave you all to be the good people, as you are so kind, righteous, and moral. I was born a bad person. Except for my wife, I never cared about anyone else's lives."
"You..." Eloise didn't know what to say.
She had never been wanting to be with Jasper like this before. Jasper was rich and had power, and he was also very handsome, so she felt that he would be the perfect guy for her.
But unfortunately...
She suddenly looked at Victor and said directly, "What do you want to ask?"
"Miss Dawson, it wouldn't have taken us so much time if you were so smart earlier." Victor slightly sat up, looking at Eloise with his sharp eyes.
"How many people are involved in your group who are going to kill my wife for a hundred million?" This was the only reason that he came here today.
Eloise shook her head and said, "I really don't know. It was my uncle who told me this. I did not just do this for the money. I really like Jasper and I want to be with him, and that's why I wanted to do this to Eden."
She looked at Victor with her pale face and continued, "Mr. Alwynn, what I did has nothing to do with my parents. I have told you everything I know, so please leave my parents alone."
Eloise was really scared at the moment. With what she had done, she could easily get out of it soon. At least she still could go abroad afterward.
Even though it would be harder for her to get by with a criminal record, it still would be better than living in River City.
She could also come back after her parents both retired.
However, now that Victor got involved, she felt that things would not be as easy as before anymore.
Victor snorted, and his eyes were sharp and cold. "Did you really tell me everything you know? You'd better tell the truth when I ask you, otherwise, I will make sure that you won't be able to get out so easily." His cold words were full of threats.
Eloise's body trembled with fear. She know who Victor was and what he was capable of.
So she believed that he was not joking.
"Mr. Alwynn...," she said with her trebled voice. "I am telling the truth. I don't know exactly how many people are involved. Anyway, as long as there are people who can be used around you, they will use them, including people around my uncle. I don't know why my uncle agreed to help that person, but what he offered to me was exactly what I need. That's why I made such a big mistake."
People like her would find it harder to find a good job with a criminal record, and her previous company would not let her go back either.
She had ruined her own future, so she was actually very regretful.
She had done a lot for this job.
She had been thinking about this for a whole night. She really wished that she hadn't done this stupid thing, but there was nothing she could do anymore.
Brian looked at her thoughtfully. It seemed that she did not lie. The group was doing everything in dark, and there were so many people totally lost themselves in it even before they met the boss.
The man in the hospital was also like this.
"Victor, it seems that we can't get anything more from her now," Brian said.
"Let's go back," Victor got up and said.
