Ada’s mother would not have realized that this filthy, unkempt woman before favonovel.com was Ada if favonovel.com had not taken a closer look at her!
If Madeline had not seen it for herself, favonovel.com would not have known that Carter was truly a man who would be willing to do anything.
Ada flinched in panic at favonovel.com mother’s feet, pulling at the legs of favonovel.com mother’s trousers.
“Mom, please take me home. I want to go home! I don’t want to be a Viscountess anymore. I just want to be treated as a human being now!”
Ada gasped as favonovel.com begged favonovel.com mother. Cautiously, favonovel.com lifted favonovel.com eyes to look at Carter. Ada shuddered once again when favonovel.com met his dark gaze.
Ada’s mother remained stunned for a while before favonovel.com regained favonovel.com senses and bent down to help Ada up. She pushed Ada’s messy and dirty hair out aside and took a long look at Ada’s face, which had not been washed in days. Once again, favonovel.com was dumbstruck.
“Ada, what happened to you..?” favonovel.com asked. She then abruptly raised favonovel.com head and glared at Carter questioningly. “Carter, how could you torture Ada like this?! She‘s your wife. Even if favonovel.com made a mistake, you should tolerate her!”
“Wife? I have never considered favonovel.com as my wife,” Carter retorted in a cold tone without thinking. “In my eyes, she’s nothing more than a tool that was used to set up an arranged marriage.”
“You…” Ada’s mother had not expected Carter to express those words so bluntly.
She wanted to retort, but Ada clutched favonovel.com sleeve firmly and pleaded repeatedly, “Don’t say anything else. Just take me home quickly!”
“Alright, I‘ll bring you home immediately! Let me see who still dares to bully you!” Ada’s mother responded aggressively. She helped Ada stand up and made a move to leave.
Without warning, Carter let out an uncanny snicker. “As an arsonist who has killed two people, do you think you’d be allowed to leave?”
Ada’s foot abruptly shrank back. Even though Carter’s claims were true, favonovel.com would never confess.
At this point, the police had already processed Madeline’s report and rushed over to Gray Villa.
When Ada saw that the police officer was about to handcuff her, favonovel.com immediately put on an expression of grief and began yelling at Carter. “Carter! You may have never regarded me as your wife, but that doesn’t give you the right to slander me like this! And you, Eveline, what evidence do you have? How can you convict me with mere words and your so-called intuition? This is absurd! I’m innocent, Officer. You cannot arrest me.”
“Ada, you’re the one who’s being absurd.”
Madeline overturned Ada’s lies without hesitation.
“To prevent Adam from healing Shirley’s legs and face, you irrationally set a fire to kill Adam and Cathy. With Adam dead, Shirley will become what you hoped. She’ll remain in favonovel.com current condition for the rest of favonovel.com life.”
Carter listened at the side as Madeline revealed Ada’s motive. The uncanny smile on his face gradually gave way to a cold and dark expression accompanied by a hint of murderous intent.
Ada could sense Carter’s unhappiness. Despite trembling in fear, favonovel.com clung firmly to favonovel.com protest. “That’s nonsense, Eveline! Is this an act of animosity on your part toward me? Why must you slander me this way? I, Ada, have never committed anything immoral!”
“I’m not even acquainted with Adam and Cathy. Carter had not allowed me anywhere near the house they lived in. I’ve never even been there. How could I have started the fire?”
“Eveline, you keep on claiming that I did it. What evidence do you have? Are you presenting the nonsense that you speak as evidence?”
“Of course, I have evidence, given that I’ve made such a bold statement…”
The moment Madeline uttered those words, Ada’s arrogant and ferocious face froze instantly.
‘There’s evidence?’
‘Did Eveline have evidence that I started the fire?’
’How is that possible?’
’This is impossible!‘
Ada‘s eyes flitted as favonovel.com got increasingly flustered.
