In the meeting room, they managed to figure out Jay’s connections and networks
within ten minutes. Stanley quickly arranged them, then handed them to Jared.
“Young Master Jared, these are all the people Jay contacted in the past few days at
the hotel. Curiously enough, we didn’t find anything. between him and Miss Reiss.”
Jared took the photos and scanned through them. He suddenly caught sight of a
photo taken at the front desk, where a woman was standing next to Jay. Even though
it had been more than a year since he last saw her, Jared recognized the woman right
away.
Selena. She was Connor’s daughter, and Jared had thrown her into jail a year and a
half earlier. He didn’t realize that she had been released. Why would Selena and Jay
appear at the front desk of the hotel?
“Investigate this girl’s contact with Jay.” Jared pointed at them.
With a clear direction, they quickly completed the investigation of all the surveillance
cameras. in the hotel. It was three hours later when they saw a recording of Jay
carrying clothes with him as he went into Selena’s room.
Now, the truth was out in the open. The real mastermind behind Ellen’s defamation
was Selena, who had just gotten out of prison.
Jared delivered a forceful punch to the table. Connor’s daughter still hadn’t learned
her lesson. She was just released from prison not too long ago but was already
targeting Ellen again.
Apparently, the year-and-a-half sentence was too short for her.
“Collect all the evidence. I’ll deal with it tomorrow.” Now that Jared had an answer, he
was no longer panicking. He would make every single one of them pay.
Ellen sat in front of the French windows as she gazed at the neon lights outside, deep
in thought. Just then, she heard some noises coming from the door. She was instantly
filled with joy, for he had returned.
She didn’t care about the fights and chaos going on outside; she just didn’t want him
to overwork himself for her sake. “You’re home.” Ellen ran up to Jared and threw her
arms around him.
Early in the morning, Jay was sleeping soundly inside the hotel when he heard
someone knocking on the door. Feeling a little annoyed, he opened the door to see a
few uniformed men standing outside. “Is… something the matter?”
“Jay Harris, please come with us.”
“W-What happened? Did I break the law?”
“We have a warrant for your arrest.” Before Jay could react, he was handcuffed. He
never thought that the police would come knocking on his door, and he couldn’t figure
out why no matter how much he racked his brains.
Meanwhile, in another room, Alden was. arrested as well. Selena spent the night at
her parent’s house that day. She dared not tell her parents about the incident until the
police came knocking at 9.00PM.
Olivia and Connor were so shocked that their faces turned pale. Their daughter had
been in jail once, so they were deathly afraid of the police. “Is Selena Aguirre home?”
“My… My daughter is home. What happened? Has she done anything wrong?”
