Falling for My Contractual Wife

Louise vividly portrayed the pain of losing her sister. It was so real that tears even rolled down her face.

Shannon was about to faint. She leaned on Marshall's shoulder and cried so hard that she could not open her eyes.

Louise went forward to comfort her. "Dad, Shannon, don't be too sad. I believe God will give Ava justice."

Shannon heard Louise's voice and slowly opened her eyes.

"Slap!" A crisp slap suddenly sounded. Shannon's hand trembled as she slapped Louise hard.

Louise tilted her head to the side. Her long hair hid her emotions.

She covered her face in disbelief and thought, 'Shannon, this damn old woman! She came to hit me after her daughter died? She simply does not want to live anymore!'

A malevolent killing intent surfaced in her eyes.

Shannon pointed at Louise's nose and scolded, "It's all your fault, you scourge! If you hadn't instigated Ava to kidnap Grace, why would Grace bear a grudge and attack Ava? You scourge! Why did you come back?" The more she spoke, the more agitated she became. She felt that Louise was a troublemaker. She rushed up and wanted to hit Louise again.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Marshall grabbed her in time. "Shannon, calm down! Don't go crazy here!"

Shannon looked up at the sky and cried, "My Ava. I am sorry for you!"

Marshall said, "Louise, are you alright? Shannon is too sad and muddle-headed. Don't blame her, okay?"

Louise slowly turned around with a sorrowful expression on her face. "Dad, Shannon, I understand. I know that you can't accept Ava's death. What we can do now is to make Grace pay with her life!" Shannon spat at her. "Get lost! I don't want to see your pretentious actions."

Marshall roared, "Alright! Stop venting your anger on Louise. Ava's death has nothing to do with Louise!"

Shannon cried even louder.

Marshall asked, "Louise, does Brian know about Ava's death?"

Louise shook her head. She did not tell Brian. Although Brian would find out sooner or later, the later he found out, the better it was for Louise.

She was afraid that Brian would rush over to save Grace on impulse.

Marshall seemed to have aged ten

years in an instant. He sighed and said, "Call him and ask him to help find the best lawyer. This time, I must make Grace, the murderer, pay with her life! Even if she can't be sentenced to death, I must make her spend the rest of her life in prison!"

Louise nodded. Her face was full of sadness. "Okay, I understand."

Although she said that, she did not immediately make a call to Brian.

Carson followed to the police station. "My sister wouldn't kill anyone. She wouldn't even dare to kill a fish! She wouldn't kill anyone!"

The police officer looked at him gravely, still clutching a dossier. "You're the suspect's brother? Called Carson Sherman?"

Carson answered, "Yes!"

The police officer said, "Your sister had a conflict with the victim, Ava Adkins. You were there during the kidnapping. Tell me about what happened then."

Carson replied, "My sister was

indeed kidnapped by Ava, but my

sister wouldn't kill her! My sister just gave birth and she still has to raise the child. She wouldn't commita crime and ruin her life because her chite would lose her mother

The police officer frowned. 'You don't need to state your subjective opinion. All you have to do is state the facts of the kidnapping at the time.'

Carson recounted the details of the

incident. The officer said coldly,

"Your sister has a motive for murder.

If you say she didn't kill anyone, you need to give evidence!"
