Chapter 132
It appeared that rushing to confirm my identity was a misstep. I should have kept it secret and then gradually advocated for the investigation.
If I had initially presented myself as Stephanie's friend, perhaps Rachel and Zion wouldn't have been so suspicious of me.
I was too careless.
"She's lying!" Yasmin attempted to protest.
I gave Yasmin a meaningful look. "If you can't provide any evidence, I'll take legal action. against you."
Yasmin seemed hesitant. Her intention hadn't been to have me arrested but to distance
Michael from me. Clearly, she had succeeded.
"The Lincolns have the means for legal representation," Steven said firmly, gripping my hand tightly. His glare at Yasmin was intense and menacing.
I even sensed that if the ward were empty, Steven might have taken drastic action against
Yasmin.
The veins on the back of his hand bulged. It was as if he was trying to contain his anger.
He held my hand tightly, seemingly trying to offer reassurance.

"I did see a suspicious man entering Stephanie's house in the surveillance footage," Rachel said as she looked at Zion.
Zion frowned. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Rachel's gaze held a mix of emotions, conveying a silent message, "I'm placing my trust in you, so please don't disappoint me.'
I smiled at Rachel before addressing Yasmin, "I'll contact a lawyer to work with the police. Yasmin intentionally led Stephanie to Sunset Alley. It was a planned murder. She desired
Michael and believed Stephanie would take him away because their relationship wasn't that
simple."
"Stephany!" Michael's voice boomed with anger.

Was he afraid I would send Yasmin to jail?
"You don't need to shout at me. I'm not deaf," I told Michael. "You claimed Stephanie was more like your sister, but she was actually Mrs. Ford's chosen fiancée for you.
"Because of Stephanie, Mrs. Ford doesn't accept Yasmin and won't easily let her into the family. So, Yasmin had to find a way to get rid of Stephanie.

"She wouldn't dare to commit the murder herself. So, she schemed to eliminate Stephanie. Coming from the same orphanage, she would've known why the serial killer was targeting women like them. She
made Stephanie wear her clothes and manipulated the serial killer to do her dirty work." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest

I walked toward Yasmin's bedside and stared at her. "My assumption is correct,
isn't it, Ms. Bailey?"
"Stop spouting nonsense!" Yasmin's voice wavered as fear crept in.

She desperately gripped Michael's
have
wrist and tried to defend herself. "Michael, you have to believe me. She's slandering me. You know me better than anyone. I risked my life to save you. How could I ever commit murder?" The content is on

She wanted to convey that she was a kind-hearted person who would never
consider such a thing.
Michael stared at Yasmin and slowly withdrew his hand.
I smirked sarcastically, observing Michael's sudden lack of trust in Yasmin. It was
rather fickle
of him.

Since nobody believed her, Yasmin made a decision. “Officer Landon! I'm willing to cooperate with the police to lure out the murderer. I believe once the killer is caught, the truth will come to light. Then, you'll see who's lying!" The content is on
