Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall by Colby Stanford novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 

He did not want to betray Liam, but he could not stand by and watch his sister die. 

He was conflicted and torn. 

When Levi walked into the garden, Liam saw his every reaction from the master bedroom balcony 

He held a cigarette between his fingers. After a while, he stubbed out the smoldering end and met Levi in the study. 

“How did that go?” asked Liam. 

After a moment of silence, Levi replied, “I… saw Mr. Simon.” 

Liam knew his father, so he asked directly, “Did he threaten you?” 

Levi had worked for Liam for many years and knew his ways of doing things. 

He bowed and said, “Mr. Hall, I’m sorry! You have to save my sister!” 

Levi confessed everything. 

28 hours had passed, and there was less than a day left. 

Liam already knew who the mastermind was. 

Hence, he sent some men to capture Faith. 

“Where is the chip?” 

By the river, Faith retreated in fear and trepidation. “Who are you? I don’t know anything about chips!” 

“You’re not telling the truth, huh?” 

Liam’s men were tough and ruthless. 

Faith’s weak resolve crumbled quickly under their pressure. 

One man said, “I’ll give you one last chance to hand over the chip. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to get what you want, but you’ll also be imprisoned for life!” 

Stealing and hiding classified information was a felony. 

Faith bit her lips, remembering Simon’s promise to protect her, but still feeling uncertain. 

“As long as the chip is not in my hands, no one can give me a heavy sentence!” With that, she threw a black box

into the river behind her.” 

“Shit!” Seeing that, a man immediately rushed out of the car and jumped Into the river. 

“Liam!” Emma shouted. 

It turned out that she had been observing from the car with Liam. 

When Liam saw that Faith wanted to destroy the evidence, he jumped into the river without hesitation. 

Emma quickly ran out of the car, but the man had disappeared into the water. 

Emma stared intently at the river, which appeared calm but could have deadly whirlpools. 

Just as she was about to jump in as well, Liam’s men stopped her. “Mrs. Hall, don’t worry. Mr. Hall is a good 

swimmer. We’ll go down and take a look.” 

Another man said, “Yes, Mr. Hall will never let you get in the water. Let us find him.” 

Emma nodded. “Thank you. Please be careful.” 

A few of them dived into the water one after another. 

A minute passed, feeling as long as a century. 

Emma was getting more and more anxious. 

Just as she wondered if something bad had happened to Liam, a few men emerged from the water. 

“We found it!” one of Liam’s men shouted, “Mrs. Hall, don’t be afraid. We’re bringing Mr. Hall back now!” 

The river current was getting stronger, but the few of them worked together like an unbreakable wall, pushing against the torrent. 

Not long after, they all made it ashore. 

Liam was drenched. Water was dripping from his hair onto his pale skin, making him look sexy. 

He held the chip in his hand and said, “Emma, I got it.” 

Emma quickly took off her coat to dry him off. “Hurry and dry yourself, don’t catch a cold.” 

The weather had turned cold. The wind by the river was strong, and the temperature of the river was low. 

Despite the chill, Liam felt warmth from Emma’s concern.

Faith bit her lip in humiliation. 

Liam’s gloomy gaze fell on her. “Whatever you have to say, save it for the police.” 

The dashcam in the car had recorded the entire process of Faith throwing the chip into the river. 

Not only could it prove Emma’s innocence, but Faith was also suspected of leaking state secrets. 

The Jennings family panicked and sent Gordon Jennings, Faith’s grandfather who was a decorated war hero to 

take care of it. 

However, due to the gravity of the situation, he was unable to help his granddaughter clear her name. 

In the end, Faith was sentenced to three years in prison on account of Gordon’s contribution and her first offense. 

When Faith heard that she was going to jail, she caused a commotion at the police station. 

She cried, “Grandpa, I don’t want to go to jail! Please help me! I didn’t steal the chip. I was just following orders. It 

steal the chip!” 

was Simon Hall! He instructed me t 

As soon as she finished speaking, an elderly man walked into the police station. “Miss Jennings, what are you talking about? I don’t quite understand. Perhaps my old ears are failing me. How could I have instructed you? Isn’t today the first time we’ve met?” 

With just a few words, Simon completely absolved himself of any involvement. 

Faith was so angry that her face turned red, and she clenched her fists tightly. 

She knew that she could not afford to offend Simon, and even her grandfather couldn’t stand up to him. 

Her eyes were filled with hatred. 

Just then, Derek stepped forward and said, “It’s not too late to repent now. You’re still young. After three years, you 

can start afresh and still have a great life ahead of you!” 

Faith screamed, “No, you’re lying! It was you!” 

Simon laughed. “I’ve never been to Charon Military School. How could I have taken the chip from there? The surveillance footage shows only you.” 

Simon always acted flawlessly, leaving no loose ends. 

Faith was no match for him. 

It wasn’t long before Faith was taken away.
