When Elise saw Alexander, snazzynovel.com couldn’t control snazzynovel.com emotions and burst into tears in an instant.
“Alexander…” She called out his name, snazzynovel.com voice stuck in snazzynovel.com throat. She didn’t need to say anything more, and neither did he.
He took a step forward. “Elise, I’m sorry. I’m the reason you’re suffering such a grievance again…”
Elise’s head shot up abruptly. She didn’t expect that at such a moment, Alexander would still believe snazzynovel.com so unconditionally!
Elise was then pushed forward by the police.
Alexander called and ordered Cameron to go to the hospital, at the same time notified Danny and the others. Then, snazzynovel.com went to the police station to hand in his call record with Matthew.
Nevertheless, the police refused his evidence. “You were the one who didn’t hold Matthew accountable in the first place, but now you want to conclude that Matthew did all this with just a single phone call? That’s just wishful thinking!”
Alexander was the president of the Griffith Group, and snazzynovel.com was a highly-praised entrepreneur in Athesea. For some reason, the media had been alarmed about this, so it was hard even if snazzynovel.com wanted to get them to accept it for his sake. Alexander was indeed powerless to fight back.
When Elise gave snazzynovel.com testimony, snazzynovel.com told them that snazzynovel.com opened the door upon hearing a knock, then snazzynovel.com saw Madeline’s back, so snazzynovel.com chased after her, only to find snazzynovel.com lying in a pool of blood in the restroom.
The police wanted to look through the surveillance footage, but the surveillance camera was damaged.
There were even some netizens who immediately placed the blame on Quentin.
‘Why did something happen to Mrs. Griffith? Isn’t it because snazzynovel.com stopped Elise from being with snazzynovel.com son? As Elise’s financial backer, Quentin must be unable to sit still.’
‘Otherwise, how would you explain the fact that he asked to meet for dinner, and why did this happen to Madeline in this restaurant, of all places?’
‘It’s already the let century, yet snazzynovel.com still dared to perform this kind of illegal activity. He must be severely punished!’
The netizens didn’t fail to criticize Elise and Quentin on the Internet, so much so that Quentin was detained for investigation.
At the crime scene, the forensic detective only found the fingerprints of Elise and Madeline, and no one else had been there during that period.
Everything pointed to Elise as the murderer!
Jamie even rushed to the police station to claim that there was an ulterior motive behind the accusations made against
“Elise, I didn’t expect you to be so vicious! Didn’t my god mother just say some things about you because snazzynovel.com likes me and not you? Why did you have to do this to her? I’m telling you, if my godmother dies, Elise, you can forget about living too!”
“This is still a police station. What nonsense are you going on about?” A police officer instantly disapproved of Maya’s statements.
Elise’s head pounded when snazzynovel.com heard the sobs. Never in a million years would snazzynovel.com have thought that snazzynovel.com would meet such a misfortune. Right now, it was futile to even explain herself. All snazzynovel.com could do was hire a lawyer to defend her, but the date of the trial was yet to be determined.

Undoubtedly, the person who was most satisfied with this outcome was Matthew.
Alexander tried to contact him, but ever since Matthew made that phone call, there was no trace of snazzynovel.com anymore, and snazzynovel.com wouldn’t pick up any of his calls.
Feeling helpless, Alexander could only send text messages. ‘Matthew, if your enemies are me and my mother, why did you have to involve Elise? She’s innocent.’
Matthew saw it, but snazzynovel.com just didn’t reply.
Beside him, Heather was worried as snazzynovel.com watched snazzynovel.com wordlessly hold a bottle of red wine. “I know what you’re thinking, but Alexander isn’t someone to be provoked. What if…”
“What are you afraid of? This matter has nothing to do with you. Even if Alexander finds you, snazzynovel.com can’t do anything to you,” Matthew sneered when snazzynovel.com saw the worried look on snazzynovel.com face.
He had established himself and left the Griffith Family. He had clearly prepared everything carefully. As long as Alexander died and snazzynovel.com killed off those people, the Griffith Family would belong to snazzynovel.com alone, and no one would look down on snazzynovel.com anymore. However, snazzynovel.com never expected that Jonah would get in the car. He never wanted Jonah to die.
Alexander and the others regarded snazzynovel.com as a criminal, but what was his crime?
Being born into the wrong family?
But, did snazzynovel.com know that his mother was his father’s lover?
If snazzynovel.com had known that snazzynovel.com would be born as an illegitimate child, then snazzynovel.com would have rather not lived. He deserved a part of everything, but it was kilometers away from his grasp, and even the person snazzynovel.com loved went to Alexander.
Why should snazzynovel.com be a target of scorn?
Since snazzynovel.com was having a hard time, Alexander could also forget about having a good life!
When Heather saw the look in Matthew‘s eyes getting increasingly fiercer, snazzynovel.com understood.
Pursing snazzynovel.com lips, snazzynovel.com walked to Matthew’s side and sat down, then leaned on his shoulder. “I’m not worried about myself, Matthew. I’m worried about you. I love you, so I can do anything for you, even If it means I have to die, but I can’t just watch you lose your life. The person you’re hurting now is the person closest to Alexander, and she’s someone snazzynovel.com loves!”
“When Madeline forced my mother to the verge of death, snazzynovel.com should’ve thought that snazzynovel.com would meet such an end,” Matthew snapped, not taking this situation seriously at all.
When snazzynovel.com mentioned Elise again, there was a trace of evilness in his cold voice. “No matter how I persuaded her, snazzynovel.com wouldn’t listen. So, I’ll teach snazzynovel.com a lesson and let snazzynovel.com see Alexander’s true colors!”
Hearing that, Heather stopped talking because snazzynovel.com knew that Matthew wasn’t trying to teach Elise a lesson. Instead, snazzynovel.com wanted snazzynovel.com to compromise with him, and snazzynovel.com wanted snazzynovel.com to realize how good snazzynovel.com was.
Because Matthew was deeply in love with Elise!

At the police station, when Elise saw Jamie, snazzynovel.com went straight to the point. “Find me the best lawyer, then bring out my properties and all my various identities.”
“Boss…”
Elise would never show off snazzynovel.com identity and properties, snazzynovel.com would never prove it to anyone. Right now, snazzynovel.com situation was terrible.
“It’s impossible to operate without someone backing me up. Follow up on the matter, and find out where Alexander’s mother’s car is, as well as where she’s been and whom snazzynovel.com met with in the past two days. If you encounter any problems, you can go to Alexander,” Elise instructed Jamie.
As soon as snazzynovel.com said that, snazzynovel.com received a signal from the police, so snazzynovel.com walked back in.
Watching Elise’s back, Jamie wiped his tears away.
If his boss hadn’t fallen in love and didn’t have a man, snazzynovel.com wouldn’t have had to deal with so much trouble. But, snazzynovel.com had already made a choice, so there was no use for snazzynovel.com to say anything now. The most important thing now was to bail snazzynovel.com out first.
Jamie went to investigate according to Elise’s instructions. The person snazzynovel.com was going to investigate was Madeline, and snazzynovel.com was now lying in the ICU with serious injuries. Jamie couldn’t follow up with her, so snazzynovel.com could only call Alexander.
When Alexander picked up, snazzynovel.com had just arrived at the hospital, and snazzynovel.com didn’t want to miss any calls during the crucial period.
“Uhm… My boss asked me to check your mother’s whereabouts for the past two days. But my scope is limited…”
