She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 410

Chapter 410

Autumn received the same response on her end.

Stephen spoke with a calm expression. “I spoke to him last time. He can’t hold on to White Cosmos No. 1.”

Autumn’s expression shifted slightly. “This has something to do with White Cosmos No. 1 as well?”

“That was inevitable. Someone wants to take him down. It might not be entirely because of White Cosmos No. 1, but that factor is definitely involved.” Stephen sighed softly. “He’s too arrogant. I warned him before. With his current footing, he can’t withstand profits on the scale of White Cosmos No. 1. He wouldn’t listen. What a pity.”

Autumn grew visibly angry at her father’s words. She clenched her teeth. “Dad, just tell me. Are you helping or not?”

Stephen still refused to budge. “I already advised him long ago…”

Before he could finish, anger flared across Autumn’s face. She turned around and walked away.

Stephen froze, then hurried after her. “Autumn, where are you going?”

Autumn stopped and replied coldly, “If you won’t help, I’ll find someone who will.”

Stephen had not expected such resolve from his daughter. Panic set in as he stood up and grabbed her arm. “Didn’t I tell you? Someone is targeting him right now. We-”

“I don’t want to hear this nonsense!” Autumn shook off his hand.

Stephen had no choice but to give in. “Fine, I’ll help. I’ll help, all right? But you’d better be mentally prepared. There’s a strong chance this is beyond my control.”

After that, he began making phone calls.

Autumn finally let out a quiet sigh of relief.

While several women rushed around outside, the atmosphere inside the interrogation room was just as tense.

“We found bottled water containing drugs in your car, and it has Miss Frost’s fingerprints on it. How do you explain that?” an officer asked, his expression stern.

Dominic sat in the interrogation chair and replied calmly, “That bottle was mine. The drugs in it have nothing to do with me.”

The officer made notes in his notebook and continued, “Miss Frost tested positive for substances that induce arousal. After she lost consciousness, you carried her into the hotel. How do you explain that?”

The officer clearly had hotel surveillance footage to support the claim.

Dominic answered evenly, “She said she wasn’t feeling well and asked me to take her back to the hotel.”

The officers exchanged glances.

After a long pause, one officer sneered, “You can argue all you want. But traces of your hair, skin cells, and other biological material were found inside her body. How do you explain that?”

Dominic frowned at once.

He remembered the brief physical contact he had with Lydia when he was not fully conscious.

During that moment, she had deliberately taken something from him. Her methods were ruthless.

Dominic stayed silent for several seconds before speaking again. “I didn’t do it.”

The officers looked at one another, closed the notebook, and left the interrogation room.

Dominic remained alone inside, unsure how much time passed.

By the time Ezra finally walked in, the sky outside had already brightened.

Ezra looked exhausted.

Dominic smiled when he saw him. “You’re here.”

Ezra said, “You’re still smiling. Right now, all the evidence is stacked against you.”

Dominic replied, “It still isn’t enough to convict me.”

Ezra’s expression turned serious.

He stepped closer and lowered his voice. “The real issue is how the court will rule. People higher up are interfering in this case. I can’t get involved.”

Dominic waved his hand. “That’s fine. You don’t need to step in. We’ll talk after the trial begins.”

The last divorce case had already taught him that, under certain circumstances, even the referee could become a player.

In other words, judges could also stand on the other side.

The evidence looked airtight. Drugged bottled water, surveillance footage of him carrying an unconscious Lydia into a hotel, biological traces found in her body, and fabricated details about how he supposedly obtained the drugs. Together, it formed a complete chain of evidence.

Once the rape charge was confirmed, Dominic would be finished, with no chance of redemption. That outcome was exactly what many people wanted to see, including the online crowd.

Ezra rubbed his temples. “You really aren’t worried at all?”

“There’s nothing to worry about.”
