Chapter 43 The Scam Uncovered

Finished

When Emily heard that, she stamped her foot and screamed, “I’m not going to the police station! Leave me alone! I told you I didn’t get scammed! Why won’t you believe me? Do you just not want me to get rich?!”

Iris helped Grace sit up and then walked over to Emily. Emily, withdraw your principal right now. If you can get the principal back, I’ll pay you the profits you lost.”

Emily snorted, rolled her eyes at Iris, and scoffed. “Save it. You’re so cheap you won’t even give your mom a little living money. Like you have any cash to spare.”

Iris’s chest hurt with anger. She clenched her fists, forcing her voice to stay soft. “Can you just listen? The police have been trying to warn you for so long. Would they hurt you?”

“They don’t know anything about this investment platform,” Emily said, acting like she was in the right. “Wait till I make money. You’ll all be jealous.”

Julian walked over to Iris, speaking calmly and steadily. “Emily, if you can prove you weren’t scammed, I’ll pay you ten times the profits you lost.”

Everyone froze, staring at Julian in shock. Grace stopped crying, stood up slowly with Keith, and looked super nervous.

The two police officers checked Julian out from head to toe.

Emily narrowed her eyes, thinking to herself. This guy’s the heir to Everhart Group. Hom

on his own, and Everhart Group’s assets are off the charts.

Emily’s eyes lit up. “You mean it?”

Julian replied, “Of course.”

worth over 100 million

Emily finally pulled her phone out from under her arm, holding it tightly as she tapped aw she kept

glancing at the police, scared they’d see her password and steal her phone.

After two minutes of typing, Emily grinned. She held her phone up to Julian and the police, bragging. “Look! See? I told you I could withdraw money! This platform’s real. I told you! You promised ten times the profits. Pay up!”

Iris glanced at the withdrawal amount. “Why only 100 thousand? You still have over two million left to

withdraw.”

“I just need to prove the platform’s real,” Emily said, grinning proudly. She wiggled her plump body, looking at Julian happily. “You’re loaded. You better keep your word.”

Julian scoffed. “You’re way too greedy. You don’t want to give up the high profits on the platform, but you still want my tenfold compensation. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. If you don’t withdraw all your principal, I won’t give you a penny.”

Emily bit her lip, thinking. Between the platform’s double profits and Julian’s tenfold compensation, greed made her choose the latter.

Scared Julian would back out, she pointed at the police and Iris. “You all heard him, right? He said ten times. You have to be my witnesses!”

Iris nodded quickly. “Hurry up and withdraw the money! Take as much as you can, hurry!”

Emily stared at the platform, watching the numbers keep rising. She hesitated, then slowly started typing.

A police officer leaned in to look, but she pulled the phone away.

Less than two minutes later, her face turned pale. She panicked, her voice shaking. “I just withdrew 100 thousand. W–why can’t I withdraw now?!”

“Let me see!” The police officer didn’t wait for her to say yes. He grabbed the phone.

Emily’s face went as white as a sheet. She clung to the officer’s side, pointing at the screen. “Press that withdraw button! It must be a system glitch. Press it again! Hurry, press it again!”

The officer looked at the platform and the account, then grabbed his laptop in a hurry and started doing online interception.

The air turned tense in an instant.

Ethan and Emily crowded around the officer, staring anxiously. Their faces were pale, their bodies shaking.

Emily kept nagging the officer, telling him what to do nonstop.
