Jilted Ex-wife Billionaire Heiress

Chapter 136 Arrested

Micah's gaze followed Darya as she drove away, a complex mix of emotions flickering across his eyes.

Just as he was about to approach Regina, his phone startled him with its sudden ring.

It was Norris calling.

'What's the matter?' Micah was concerned that something had gone wrong with the company while he was away.

'Boss, I just received an email from Miss McAllister's assistant. I believe you should take a look,' Norris explained, seated next to the computer as he

forwarded the email to Micah.

Micah furrowed his brow.

An email?

What could it be about?

A few seconds later, his phone pinged with an incoming email.

Micah opened it anxiously.

His pupils dilated, and the air around him grew heavy with tension.

The email contained a recording of a conversation between Regina and a man.

'...It's that woman named Darya,' Regina said. 'Once you eliminate her or leave her incapacitated, you won't have to worry about the rest of your life. Just take her out in the parking lot of her company.'

Apart from the recording, the email also included the man's profile and a photo, resembling the same driver caught on the surveillance footage attempting to run over Darya.

Micah felt as if a sledgehammer had crashed into his chest, leaving him breathless.

So, it was Regina who wanted Darya dead.

If he hadn't sought out Darya that day, if he hadn't arrived in time to save her, then Darya...

Micah was consumed with anger.

Regina could hear the voices in the recording, and fear gripped her.

Desperate, she reached out, grabbing hold of Micah's trousers.

'M-Micah, listen! No, it, it wasn't me,' she stammered, panicking.

Regina hadn't expected Darya to uncover the truth so quickly, nor did she anticipate Darya's retaliatory actions.

When Micah glanced at her, Regina trembled with fear, cold sweat trickling down her back.

His eyes turned icy, as if he were staring at a monster he no longer recognised.

It was the first time Micah saw Regina for who she truly was.

Even now, faced with overwhelming evidence, Regina attempted to squirm her way out of it.

Micah suddenly realised that perhaps Regina had orchestrated everything since his marriage to Darya.

Those repeated injuries, her claim of needing Darya's blood transfusion-It had all been a calculated ploy by

Regina!

Micah's gaze grew frigid.

Clenching his phone tightly, he lifted his leg and shook off Regina's tainted touch.

'Micah!' Regina cried, her voice filled with pitiful pleas.

'Get lost!' Micah seethed, his anger directed solely at Regina.

This was the first time he felt such rage towards her.

With that, he left Regina behind, viewing her as nothing more than trash.

Slipping into his car, he drove away, leaving her to struggle alone.

Just as Regina reached for her phone, intending to call Felicia, the blare of a car horn caught her attention.

Could it be that Micah had sent someone to pick her up?

Did it mean he still had feelings for her?

Regina's delight turned to dismay as a police officer materialised before her, delivering a figurative slap to her

face.

'Regina Fischer? You are under arrest for attempted murder. Please come with us,' the officer stated, presenting his arrest warrant as he moved towards her. Caught off guard, Regina found herself grabbed by the officer, her wrists handcuffed.

She had believed she would be saved, but instead, she found herself imprisoned.

As she was bundled into the back of the police car, Regina realised that Micah would never treat her kindly

again.

And what frightened her even more was that Darya would never let her off the hook.

Returning to the Paragon Group, Darya's spirits soared.

She couldn't help but chuckle at the thought of Regina's pitiful state.

'Regina, oh, Regina, this is the consequence of crossing me,' Darya mused to herself.

Just as she got ready to resume work, her phone rang.

Bianca was calling.

'Dolly, have you seen the news?' Bianca sounded breathless with excitement.

Darya hadn't checked her phone yet.

She asked, 'What happened?'

'Regina was arrested by the police! Did you do it?'

'No.' Darya tapped a finger on the desk. 'I just got my assistant to send a copy of evidence to Micah."

'Ah, I knew it! He must have called the police, then. Regina has confessed to everything. You can finally rest. easy,' Bianca exclaimed, relieved herself.

Her joy surpassed Darya's when Regina was apprehended.

That woman had tormented Darya time and again, even attempting to take her

life.

Regina had it coming!

Darya was slightly taken aback.

She hadn't expected Micah to turn Regina in to the police.

She had thought he would be reluctant to let that woman go.

It seemed that Micah was truly heartless.

'After I found out about Regina and Lucian, I called my mom and Lucian's close friends,' Bianca fumed. "Turns out, they never liked Regina! No wonder my mom never mentioned her before! That Regina pestered my brother day in and day out, acting all sweet. She even fooled everyone into thinking my brother liked her! When Lucian got injured, she pretended to take care of him, but in reality, it was my mother doing all the work."

Regina was more cunning than they had imagined.

When Darya remained silent, Bianca continued, 'Don't worry, I called and told Micah everything. He must be furious right now. The woman he took under his wings for so many years turned out to be a fraud and a murderer. I actually feel sorry for him, you know."

Darya furrowed her brow as she listened.

Then, she smiled.

She had to admit, Regina knew how to manipulate a man, but her game was up.noveldrama

'It doesn't matter. She deserves it,' Darya said, feeling a sense of relief.

She asked, 'Is her arrest all over the Internet now?'

'Yup, it's the top trending topic! One of your brothers must have enlisted the help

of Bradley Gould to release first-hand news. They're still going at it."

Darya's curiosity piqued.

She hung up the phone and decided to check online for herself.
