Samuel straightened his back.
He knew what Kathleen was talking about.
Kathleen continued, “These people have received professional training. They attacked the
businessman, abducted him, and cleared the scene, leaving no evidence behind. However, they
caused quite a fuss, and some people found out about it. So, they bribed the witnesses, forcing them to
not say a word about it.”
The uneasiness in Ashley’s heart grew.
Kathleen’s red lips curled into a smile. “Thus, the businessman’s wife brought a few people with her
and searched for three whole months. Yet, they couldn’t locate the businessman. That was when the
wife used her own connections and finally found the clues. In the end, she returned to her country.
Coincidentally, the businessman returned after a few days.”
The crowd said nothing. They held their breaths and stared at her.
“Alas, as soon as the businessman got off the plane, he announced he was engaged to another
woman, all because that woman was his savior. It seemed as if it never crossed his mind that he had a
wife, a lover. How do you think the wife of the businessman felt?” Kathleen shot Samuel an icy glare.
Biting her lip, Ashley shouted, “Kathleen! How dare you keep calling yourself the wife? You and Samuel
had already divorced long ago! Even if you two are engaged, you’re still not his wife!”
Kathleen smirked. “So, you’re admitting you’re the savior of the businessman, aren’t you?”
Ashley questioned furiously, “What are you trying to do by hurling accusations here? Besides, you
almost ended up marrying Caleb!”
“Caleb?” Kathleen could not help but laugh. “That’s like news from six years ago. I’m sure everyone
here knows how dramatic the wedding was.”
With that reminder, everyone recalled the incident.
“That wedding was really tragic. I’ll remember it even if it happened ten years ago.”
“Exactly. The thought of it still gives me goosebumps. I can’t believe Samuel stabbed himself just to
make Kathleen stay. He must love her so much that he’s lost his mind.”
“I say, what do you think will happen when he recovers his memory and realizes he married someone
he doesn’t love? Will he go mad?”
“I don’t know if he’ll go mad, but I think he’ll start a slaughter.”
“Do you guys even hear yourself? No matter what happens, Ashley’s the daughter of the Zeller family.
Besides, she’s also Samuel’s savior. Samuel will never harm her. You guys are overthinking it.”
“We’re not. You’re the one who doesn’t understand Samuel well enough. If he really wanted to marry
another woman, why would he pester Kathleen so much?”
“Well, Kathleen didn’t marry him in the end, did she? Even after all those years?”
“Sure, she didn’t marry him, but he’s already proposed before he got into an accident. Besides, they
have two kids together. It’s only a matter of time before they get married.”
“Maybe Samuel regretted his actions after proposing.”
“How do you know he’s regretting it? Oh, you’re the Zeller family’s relative. No wonder you keep
speaking up for Ashley.”
“What’s wrong with that?”
“Displeased, are you? Let’s fight it out, then!”
The crowd started to get into a fight.
“Shut up, all of you!” Luna raged. “Kathleen, no matter what you say, Samuel was the one who
approved of this engagement ceremony. We didn’t force him into it. You can ask him yourself if you
don’t believe us.”
Everyone’s gazes fell on Samuel.
However, Kathleen said aloofly, “Hah. I’ve already told you this. I’m not here for him.”
Samuel swallowed hard but kept his silence.
Kathleen said coldly, “Ashley, Marjory was hired by you three months ago. You and Marjory took the
same flight to Smealand and stayed in the same hotel. Besides, you left with Marjory and the others on
the day of Samuel’s accident. Are you still going to say you have nothing to do with it?”
Ashley panicked. “Kathleen, do you think everything you say is right?”
“Do you think I’m saying all this without evidence?” retorted Kathleen as she scoffed.
Ashley clenched her fist upon hearing that.
Right then, Marjory came to her mind.
Marjory’s missing! Could she be abducted by Kathleen and spilled everything? Marjory, you traitor!
With a calm demeanor, Kathleen called out, “Yadiel.”
He stepped forward and placed a stack of pictures on the table. “Ms. Zeller, you didn’t know there were
surveillance cameras at the hotel’s entrance, didn’t you?”
Ashley froze.
“In fact, the hotel is not the only place with surveillance cameras. A family who lived near the road
where Mr. Macari’s accident happened installed one at their house. However, their camera was in a
rather discreet location. Hence, no one knew until one of us found it a few days ago. These are the
evidence of you being around Marjory and the others,” Yadiel said icily.
Ashley panicked at the sight of the pictures. Clearly, Marjory did not betray her.
However, those pictures were like a death sentence for her.
“Since you knew about Samuel’s identity, why didn’t you send him to the hospital after the accident?
Why did you send him somewhere far away and not inform us about it? What are your motives?”
“That’s because someone’s trying to harm Samuel! I was worried for him!” explained Ashley.
