Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 993

Chapter 993 Jail 

Hearing that, Aiden trembled in fear and instinctively reached out to cover Jessica’s lips, but it was too late for him to do so. 

Thud! 

Fear crept up his throat as he fell to his knees before Alex and explained, “Mr. Jefferson, don’t listen to her rambling nonsense. That isn’t true! I don’t know any Heather or Carmen. She’s spouting nonsense to get back at me!” 

After succeeding in abducting Jessica last night, Aiden was so pleased with himself that he arrogantly boasted about his misdeeds, revealing everything to her. 

Flynn gave his head a forceful slap. “Aiden, I want nothing more than to chop your head open to see if it’s filled with mud. We didn’t mention Carmen’s name at all, did we?” 

Aiden’s mind went blank, and he lost all ability to think. He was still in a daze after getting slapped by Alex, and that caused him to speak without thinking. 

“Break Aiden’s limbs and drop him off at the police station. Tell the police to investigate Regenerateur Enterprises thoroughly as they might find the company involved in shady businesses,” Alex ordered sternly. 

Following his command, several men swiftly surrounded Aiden, but Alex didn’t linger to witness the scene. Instead, he strode over to Jessica to pick her up and left the villa with his men behind him. 

Aiden had caused so much trouble, so naturally, Alex wouldn’t spare him just like that. He was going to punish Aiden in another more torturous way. 

Alex knew little about the law, but he knew Aiden would be sentenced to at least twenty years in jail for what he did. 

Twenty years was a long time. Moreover, Aiden’s limbs would be broken, so he would definitely be taught a lesson during his time in prison, where the strong preyed upon the weak. 

He wouldn’t even be able to defend himself there. 

After Elsa was informed about the incident, she started a thorough investigation on Aiden. Once the investigation rolled out, she discovered that Aiden was involved in many shady businesses. 

Before scamming Carmen, Aiden had been involved in small crimes but didn’t get caught as he was cunning enough to slip away every time. 

Aiden’s involvement in a massive scam, coupled with suspicions of his company providing substandard materials and engaging in tax evasion, had placed him in serious legal trouble. Furthermore, his act of kidnapping added to the weight of his crimes, ensuring that he would face a lengthy prison sentence 

After dealing with the cases, Elsa gave Carmen a call. The latter was one of the victims of the scam and deserved to know the results of the investigation. 

Carmen was overjoyed when she received the call and wasted no time in heading to the police station. Her primary concern was the recovery of the nine billion that Aiden had fraudulently obtained from her. 

l 

Unfortunately, the money was gone, and Alex had acquired Regenerateur Enterprises. 

Upon learning that Alex now had control over the money, Carmen was consumed by a mix of anger and fear. She realized that retrieving the funds would be an impossible task, as it would invite the wrath of Flynn. 

“Where is Aiden? I’d like to meet him!” she declared heatedly. 

It was his fault I ended up in this state. I must make sure to teach him a lesson to vent my anger! 

Carmen followed Elsa into the reception room. 

Aiden sat in his chair, his body limp and devoid of strength. He even required assistance to remain seated as he lacked the ability to support himself. 

The glimmer of hope in Aiden’s eyes quickly diminished as he realized it was not Caroline who had entered the room, but Carmen. He was counting on Caroline to save him. 

“W-Why are you here?” he asked, feeling awkward.
