Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt

20 minutes later, Cindy and Madam Jewell walked out of the police station.

Before they were at the exit, the police came after Cindy and stopped her. "Excuse me, Miss Turner, but you've been accused of murder. Please come back with me for investigation."

"I... I wasn't. What murder? I have no idea what you're talking about."

Cindy was dumbfounded. She was still thinking about the 800 million dollars she could have swindled just now. Although her trick did not work, she still had one billion dollars.

Moreover, she did not intend to continue donating blood to Madam Jewell. When an opportune moment came, she was ready to flee Canberra.

Never did she expect to be arrested again.

Madam Jewell was a little dumbfounded. "Are you arresting the wrong person? How could she possibly be involved in a murder case?"

"The daughter of the ex-president of Kearny Technology has accused her of tricking an ex-president together with the company's senior management." The police gave Madam Jewell the attitude and directly dragged Cindy back to the police station.

"No. I'm innocent. Save me, Aunt Lynnette."

Cindy's howl rang out from inside.

Madam Jewell panicked, not knowing what to do, so she subconsciously dialed Chester's number. However, the call was hung up shortly.

No matter how many times she called Chester, he would not answer.

Only later did it strike Madam Jewell that in the police station a while ago, Chester told her not to look for him anymore.

Her son was actually planning to ignore her.

Madam Jewell's legs trembled, and she felt as though the sky was going to fall.

...

In the car, Chester immediately blocked Madam Jewell's number.

He then pressed his temples. He felt an indescribable sense of weariness as he wondered why he had such a parent.

Since Madam Jewell wanted to side with Cindy, he believed he had fulfilled his responsibility as a son.

Only when Cindy woke up the next morning did she learn that Cindy was arrested last night.

News about Cindy's involvement in the murder was already on the trending searches. After all, Cindy used to be a celebrity, and the Internet was blowing up with comments.

Catherine and Freya were also discussing that issue in their group chat. Freya: [Is the online news true? Did Cindy actually murder someone?] Catherine: [It should be true. The police must've gathered evidence before allowing the media to expose it. What's more, the ex-president of Kearny Technology died so abruptly, and after his death, Cindy happened to take over his position. Cindy must've worked with the shareholders of the company on that.]

Freya: [Why wasn't the news exposed earlier but now, at this crucial moment? Could it be that Cindy has no backup since Hunter has been arrested?]

Catherine: [That's possible, but it might have to do with Chester too. Last night, Shaun said that Cindy tricked Chester's mother out of 800 million dollars. She planned on fleeing overseas, but the police arrested her.]

Freya: [...800 million dollars? My God. Cindy is out of her mind. Hasn't she been making a lot of money? From the money she earned in the entertainment industry and the money she had been receiving from the Jewell family for investment, buying property, and cars, her net worth should be over one billion dollars. She's richer than anyone of us. She used to be so poor that she couldn't even afford bread in the morning. Now that she's rich, why is she still not content? To think she even got involved in cheating and murder. Has she lost her conscience? How greedy of her.]

Catherine: [We underestimated her level of greed.]

Freya sighed as she recalled that Catherine, Cindy, and she used to be good friends in high school and college. She did not expect...

Charity put down her phone.

After washing up, she went down the stairs and headed next door.

The person who opened the door was the lady in charge of cooking. The lady pointed upstairs and said, "When Mr. Torres left the house this morning, he said Mr. Jewell was in a bad mood. Ms. Neeson, why don't you go upstairs and take a look?"
