The Lucky Wife novel Chapter 654

Jack glared at Josephine. “Josie, what’s going on?”

Josephine cried out frantically, “How am I supposed to know? This accident just happened while I was at home, but it has nothing to do with me.”

When Jay and Ares arrived at Flying Moon Cottage, Josephine launched herself into Angeline’s arms.

“Sis Angeline, they think I’m the one who tried to kill Hiroshi Titus.”

Angeline said solemnly, “It’s okay to eat like a pig, but not to talk like one. You’re responsible for the words you utter.”

Jay’s gaze was steely. “Is there any evidence?”

Yumi said, “The surveillance footage shows that my brother entered Flying Moon Cottage at 6:50 pm last night. Miss Severe arrived not long after. This morning, we found my wounded brother at Flying Moon Cottage after Miss Severe left. Only Miss Ares and Miss Josephine were present last night. If it weren’t them who injured my brother, who could it be?”

Jack suddenly said thoughtfully, “Josie can’t even truss up a chicken, so how could she have injured Hiroshi who’s so strong and resilient? However, Angeline Severe has had martial arts training. I’m sure it was her.”

Although Josephine was Jack’s unpopular, adopted daughter, she was still of use to him. Thus, Jack would naturally think of ways to protect her.

He successfully provoked Jay with his words. The only hint of father-son love Jay had for him immediately shriveled into dust.

Jay directed his frosty gaze toward Jack, and their gazes clashed together like waves. Jack had never seen Jay look at him so coldly before. His gaze was as sharp as a frozen blade, cutting through everything and anything in the world.

Jack finally realized that by dragging Angeline into this mess, Jay would have lost all respect for him.

Jay laughed coldly. “Father, you’re not a three-year-old child. You should know that the law requires iron-clad evidence. By spewing facts not backed up by evidence, you’re merely wasting everyone’s time.”

His sharp criticisms embarrassed Jack greatly.

“Where are the leftovers from last night?” Jay’s alternative methods of investigating caused Jack to panic slightly.

Sycamore Annex had prepared the dinner for Flying Moon Cottage.

To get Hiroshi and Josephine together, he had ordered several drugs to be added to the dishes.

However, his men had already gotten rid of the food.

The bottle of wine had disappeared too.

At the mention of dinner, Josephine immediately said, “Big Brother, there was something wrong with dinner last night. My entire body went limp after eating.”
