Chapter 177
Dwayne led the police force to make a path through the crowd and went straight to the stage. He called Lea respectfully, “Miss Berry.” Then, he greeted Christian.
Everyone was secretly shocked that in Dwayne’s eyes, Lea was even prior to Christian. However, when they thought about her identity, the genius that Conrad University was fighting for, the researcher of artificial brains, and the boss of Riverview Hospital, it all made sense. Everything. about this young girl was insane and there was no one in the match in this world. So it was natural for Dwayne to be respectful to her.
Lea nodded at him. He then turned around and said to Matilda, “Mrs. Berry, you are under arrest on suspicion of murder.”
“What?” Matilda shouted in a shrill tone, her eyeballs bulging, her thin checks contorted.
An officer walked up to her and showed her the warrant.
She finished reading it. “No, I didn’t… I didn’t murder Jeffrey.” Her voice trembled out of breath. But she was indeed not the murderer.
Christian was shocked again and his hunched body turned wobbly. “You killed Jeffrey!”
Back then, the police conducted a thorough investigation and concluded that it was suicide. Now it turned out that she had done it flawlessly. What an outrageous crime!
Dwayne explained, “We’ve already investigated it. Nixon provided testimony and evidence.”
Matilda was shocked. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with shock and disbelief when looking at Nixon. Everyone could betray her and hurt her, but not him. This was her faith. As for killing. Jeffrey, it was almost entirely Nixon’s idea. She only knew about it after the event. But now he had shamefully pushed all the blame onto her.
Nixon turned his face away to avoid her gaze, only leaving her a cold sideways glance.
She felt as if a knife had pierced through her heart. Her lips trembled, but she couldn’t make any sound for a long time.
Suddenly, Matilda came back to reality when the handcuffs were cuffed to her hands.
“Take her,” Dwayne ordered his subordinates.
“Wait a minute.” Lea stepped forward.
Dwayne nodded.
“I want to report another murderer.” Lea turned her head and gestured to Jason, who came forward.

and said, “Mr. Brown, please take a look.”

Jason projected the video on his phone onto the screen. It recorded how Nixon killed Henry, like a movie displayed in a cinema right before so many people.
Not only did Nixon kill Henry, but he also insulted and humiliated him. They only heard a part of his nasty words, but it was enough to tell the truth at that time. All the people present were stunned. once again. Tonight, they had been given blow after blow. Some of them were already numb from shock.
Matilda bent her knees and knelt down hard to the ground. At this moment, her faith had collapsed.
The way Nixon cruelly killed and insulted her father cut straight into her heart as if she had seen it on the
spot.
“No… It wasn’t me. I’m innocent. I didn’t kill anyone…” Nixon was afraid.
Murder paid for life. People like him were most afraid of death.
Jason continued to provide evidence. “This is Henry Fraley’s autopsy report. We will also hand over the key witness and evidence.”
Back then, after Jason discovered that Nixon had killed Henry, he secretly did an autopsy.
Dwayne checked the report. These things were enough to convict Nixon. He ordered his subordinates, “Take him.”
Nixon wanted to escape, but he was already surrounded. He was directly cuffed by the police and arrested on the spot.
Matilda pounced over. With her hands cuffed, she smashed her hand at Nixon’s face. She raised her leg and kicked him hard. “Why did you do this? Why?” She asked in a heart–wrenching voice and swung at him crazily. She had done her nails and they were very sharp. In a moment, Nixon’s face was scratched with blood.
Nixon knocked her away and her body swayed and staggered to the ground. Her hair was disheveled and her makeup was smudged, looking so pathetic and miserable.
“Why?” Nixon was also completely mad. “That old man let me take the blame for him. He wanted me to die! Why should I sacrifice everything to let him enjoy the fruits of my labor? Why should I be trampled on like mud when he’s high and mighty? Tell me why!”
Matilda fell silent. Her eyes were bright for a second as if she had woken up from a dream and was enlightened. Then, her eyes dimmed again, as if she was dead.
Everyone sighed again. It turned out that this was how Henry died. This was how Matilda’s lover,

also her first love, showed his love and repaid her. What a joke!
Dwayne ordered, “Take him away.”
The police officers escorted the two of them out.
