Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 316

"We will thoroughly investigate whether there's a connection!" Yehuda shot a stern look at Yvonne.

As Yvonne eagerly waited for Yehuda to take Yolanda away, his phone suddenly rang.

Yehuda pulled out his phone, unlocked it, and held it to his ear. After a long pause, he put the phone down and addressed everyone in the living room.

"Sorry, we made a mistake. The contract between Henderson Group and Dunhill Group is completely legal," he said.

"What did you say?"

Everyone in the room, except Yolanda, was stunned.

These officers had just been threatening to arrest someone, and now they casually claimed it was all a misunderstanding.

"Officer Pace, this is ridiculous!" Diana complained, but Harold immediately chastised her.

"Shut up! Is this situation not messy enough?" he shouted.

"We only came here after receiving a tip-off, and it turns out it was from the Cantu family." Yehuda maintained a businesslike tone as he spoke.

Yehuda continued, "Unless you're implying that the Henderson family wants to confess and prove the bribery is real?"

"Absolutely not!" Diana shook her head vigorously. "We are law-abiding citizens and would never engage in bribery!"

"That's good to hear. If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave." After Yehuda finished speaking, he and his colleagues walked toward the door.

Diana and Harold naturally followed them outside to see them off.

Yolanda had no interest in engaging with someone who seemed deranged; instead, she turned and headed upstairs to her room.

She didn't care whether she deserved credit for securing the project, but she couldn't let Yvonne twist the truth.

After sending Yehuda and the others off, Diana and Harold found that Yolanda had already gone upstairs, leaving Yvonne looking pitiful in the living room.

"Dad, Mom, I know I was wrong…" Yvonne's eyes reddened with tears, pretending to be regretful. "I didn't mean to lie. I just felt uneasy lately. Since Yolanda returned, I feel like you don't love me anymore… so I wanted to try harder and help the family…"

"Why would you think that?" Harold was taken aback.

Yvonne had always been favored in the Henderson family. He and Diana had focused all their energy on nurturing her while they had ignored Yolanda.
