Chapter 7
Even Sabrina’s words when she was admitting that Gideon was involved in my kidnapping had been recorded.
When the police reviewed the evidence, their expressions shifted instantly as they turned to look at Gideon X
“I didn’t act alone, I was rescued after asking for help. I wasn’t the only one who went to his house or caused any damage.
I said firmly, pointing to the video
Hearing this, Gideon’s face darkened.
He had not expected that I not only had solid evidence but also proof that he had unlawfully detained me
Then, I took a USB drive from one of the bodyguards and handed it to the officer. “This contains a video of Gideon discussing plans with the kidnappers,
I stated clearly, handing the USB drive to the police.l
As the USB changed hands, Gideon’s expression shifted again.”
He glared at me and said coldly, “Celine, are you really going to go this far?“K
I did not answer. Instead, I calmly pulled out a document and placed it in front of the police.
“Officer, this is proof that our company invested in Gideon’s business. I am legally a shareholder of his company”
“Moreover, Gideon has been misappropriating company funds for quite some time.”
I handed over another document and added. “As a shareholder, I am requesting a full investigation into his financial activities.
“Additionally, I am officially terminating the company’s listing plan.”
As soon as those words left my mouth, Gideon’s face turned ashen !
“Celine, stop making things up! When did you ever become a shareholder?”
Sabrina was flustered and immediately chimed in as well
The two of them and the other shareholders had signed a bet–on agreement tied to the company’s listing. If the IPO was canceled, they would be forced to pay an enormous amount in compensation.
Worse still, once their misdeeds came to light, what future would they have left?
I said nothing further to them. Instead, I looked calmly at the officers and said, “Please assign both criminal and economic investigation teams to this case
Hearing my request, the officers immediately understood that this was no ordinary complaint. This was a serious, high–level case.ll
Soon, a large number of officers arrived and took me, Gideon and the others to the police station
Faced with overwhelming evidence, Gideon had no way to defend himself.
Suddenly, he rushed over to me and pleaded, “Celine, drop the charges!“?
“As long as you withdraw the lawsuit, the company’s losses will be manageable and the criminal investigation team won’t pursue the kidnapping case.”
“After all, so many years have passed!“)
“Celine, I promise you if you let this go, I’m willing to be with you again!“}
I could not help but laugh at how shameless he was.
I stared coldly at him and asked, “Gideon, you want to be with me? What about Sabrina?“H
His expression stiffened. Then, in a low voice, he replied, “Don’t worry about her, Celine. I’ll handle Sabrina
“You’ll handle her? How?”
I looked at him, half amused. Even now, he believed I might forgive him. He even still–thought I would sacrifice everything for him.
At that moment, I could not help but question my past judgment.
My taste must have been truly temble. How else could I have fallen for someone like Gideon?%
“Til make Sabrina leave and the kids will recognize you as their mother. That way, you’ll have two sons without going through childbirth and we can be together again.“)
Tears nearly welled up from laughing so hard.
I had never seen anyone this shameless
“Gideon Chase, do you really think that’s even possible?”
I sneered and continued as I stared at him coldly. “What do those children have to do with me?*%
“And do you honestly believe an apology is enough to make up for everything you have done to me?“!
Chapter 8
“So, Gideon, don’t even dream about it. There’s no chance of us ever being together again.”
I looked at him coldly and continued, “You’d better prepare yourself for prison.”
“With the number of crimes you’ve committed, you’ll be behind bars for at least twenty years! “It might even be a life sentence.“%
My tone was sharp and my gaze was icy as I spoke.!!
Then, I turned to Sabrina, who was glaring at me with hatred in her eyes. I smiled and said,!
“As for you, I guarantee you’ll be sentenced too. At least, no less than ten years!”
“By then, your children… will be orphans.”
The moment those words left my lips, both their expressions changed dramatically
Gideon began begging, pleading with me to have mercy.!!
However, when he realized I would not budge, he suddenly tried to lash out
Luckily, my bodyguard stepped in just in time and restrained him instantly.
By the time I walked away, both Gideon Chase and Sabrina Quinn had been officially detained.
As for their children, the police placed them in an orphanage.
A few days later, the police informed me that all the evidence had been gathered. With the mountain of proof, there was no way for Gideon to clear his name.
As expected, he was sentenced to life in prison.
Meanwhile, Sabrina was sentenced to over ten years for her role in orchestrating my kidnapping and embezzling company funds.”
Their children were unwanted and abandoned, so they were left behind in the orphanage.X
When I received the news, I smiled and booked a ticket home. My boss was still waiting for me.!
I returned overseas and resumed working under him. He treated me with great care and respect.
One day, he told me that he had fallen for me the moment we first met. Unfortunately, at the time, my heart belonged to Gideon, so he never confessed.
Now I accepted his love.
Soon after, we got married.
Our days were filled with happiness and before long, we welcomed a child of our own!!
One day, my husband returned from the company. He looked straight at me and said, “Gideon Chase and Sabrina Quinn are both dead.” “Even their children didn’t survive.”
I was taken aback for a moment.
“They had signed an agreement with several major consortiums. When the company failed to go public and with the massive embezzlement and falsified financial reports, the business was deemed worthless.”
“Do you think those financial groups would just let them off?“}
I listened quietly, then gave a faint smile.
“If they’re dead, so be it
Their lives no longer meant anything to me.X
Now, I had people I truly cared about.
(The End)
