Supreme Mars novel Chapter 437

Actually, Rebecca had doubted about it at the moment she ran away—the escape was too much easier than she had ever expected.

She still remembered the glass fragments scattering on the ground, the ladder and the window from which she squeezed herself out—everything seemed to be purposely arranged for her.

But it was such a haste that she couldn’t take time to think about it. She was so overwhelmed with the urge to escape.

So her every single move after that was still within Leo’s expectation.

He knew Rebecca herself would never grow the gut to hire a killer unless she was backed up by someone else.

It turned out that he was right about his guess.

Standing behind him, Caroline shouted at Rebecca helplessly with her eyes filled with tears, “Mom! Why don’t you tell us about it? Why do you still insist to revenge!”

William stared at her, looking sullen.

Actually, they had been standing at the gate for a while, from which they could clearly capture the content of their conversation.

ON their way there, William was hoping that Leo might allow Rebecca a pardon to some degree. But after hearing her evil plan, he knew that possibility had gone zero. What was more, she had even incurred herself the worst punishment.

“We know nothing about it! Don’t arrest us!” Jayden was scared. He suddenly said to Sandra, “It’s her! It’s Rebecca who has been conspiring all these! We were all deluded because of her!”

“Oh, really?” Sandra then questioned with a weird sneer, “As far as I know, it’s the Fords who have been conspiring altogether to assassinate William.”

“Now we have arrested the killer, who had already confessed!”

What she said smashed Jayden’s every excuse he was trying to make to keep themselves clean.

Now his face grew paler out of panic.

Sandra looked around and said, “Whoever paid the killer is guilty! Get them arrested! All of them!”

Soon, more than half of the Fords were under arrested.

Though the Fords had been known to be close to those families in the first tier, they were still actually depending on the support from the Nicholson family.

However, ever since the Nicholsons was doomed, the Fords had been declining.

The downfall of a family always brought misfortune. The weaker a family, the more snobbish they would turn to be. So the Fords started to scramble for the property remaining

Among all the Fords, there were about ninety percent of them contributing a share to paying a million for the killer while Rebecca had paid two hundred thousand all by herself.

The villa soon fell into silence as all the Fords involved had been arrested.

While leaving, every one of them paid Rebecca a look filled with hatred.

In less than a minute, she was left alone.

As expected, she drew the attention of all.

“Mom, tell me! Why did you do that?” Caroline questioned with great pain. Now her face was covered with tears streaming down from her eyes.

Though Rebecca had committed such an unforgivable crime, as her daughter, Caroline still cared about her.

Her plan to conspire another murder had been scuttled. With that knowing, Rebecca looked blank while slouching on the ground.

Not until quite a while later did she utter again with a bitter smile, “Alright, I will tell you why.”

Leo stared at her. Of course, he would also like to know the reason.

But William simply turned his back on her. A drip of tear ran down his face.

Rebecca answered while looking at Caroline seriously, “I did that for you!”

“For me?” Caroline was shocked.

Rebecca nodded and her eyes turned bloodshot, “Lydia is actually your sister from the same father! Both William and I have been keeping this secret for more than two decades, believing that no one would have ever found out anything about it. But the truth still leaked…”

“After she married Leo, she would be back to the family in another way as the in-laws. Because of that, your father would definitely shift his concern to her. If that happens, you and I would end up being inferior to her!”

While speaking, Rebecca suddenly suffered a breakdown. She covered her face to burst into tears.

“But you only deem me a snob preying for money! I allowed you a chance to be part of a privileged family by marriage! I planned all these just for your sake! I just want you to live a life with no worries!”

“William is part of the royal families in Valenham. Even if a servant working for them could enjoy a status much more superior than others. If there will be a day when he could return to Valenham, even the value of the property he owns would be greatly skyrocketing. But what if Lydia, his eldest daughter, returns to his side? Do you think we still have chance to get even a mere share from the property?”
