Chapter 531 I Want You To Pay The Price

Charlene had thus lost another advantage in competing with Deirdre.

Meanwhile, Deirdre, who was facing Charlene’s oppressive eyes, remained calm and collected. It was as if she wasn’t facing her enemy, who once wished to kill her. She even lifted up the corner of her mouth.

“Miss McKinney, how are you doing? It’s been about two weeks since we last met, hasn’t it?”

Charlene regained her calmness and smiled. “I’m sorry I don’t get you. What I know is that we haven’t seen each other since we were separated from Neve. In fact, I have been wondering why the police came to me. It turns out that Miss McKinnon is trying to avenge me by plotting against me because she is jealous that her ex-husband has fallen for me and wants to marry me.”

“So, you won’t confess regardless, right?” said Deirdre while looking at Charlene.

While blinking her eyes, Charlene rebutted, “What do you want me to confess? Miss McKinnon, do you know that I am innocent? I’m not surprised that you hate me because of our emotional entanglement. However, you can’t blame me for no reason, can you?”

“Maeve O’Keefe. Can you still remember her?”

Charlene’s smile froze for a second when she heard Deirdre’s question.

She clenched her fists and asked, “What do you mean?”

Composed, Deirdre said, “You deny it probably because you think that with me as the witness, you don’t think the police can detain you for long without evidence, in addition to the emotional entanglement between us. But what about if there’s another witness?”

At that moment, Charlene lost her smile.

“You thought I was dead. And because you got a scapegoat and no one else would think that you were the culprit, you didn’t think of other aspects at all. What you didn’t expect was that not everyone would keep this secret for you.”
