The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 

After gathering everything they needed from Vanessa, the police entered and sedated her to calm her 

down. 

“And done,” the detective said, handing the earrings to Christian, who stored them along with the ring. Now we’ll keep these in…” 

“I hope you’re not stealing my clients‘ few belongings,” just then, Frederick’s lawyer, an older man with black hair, arrived. 

“Not at all. We’re just collecting evidence based on the new findings in this case,” the detective replied casually while shaking the lawyer’s hands. 

“Evidence? Of what kind?” the lawyer asked, annoyed, trying to take the box containing the jewels from Christian, but the latter moved quickly. 

“That’s confidential, but I can tell you it’s related to the murder of Miss Alexandra Anderson,” Christian said, handing the box to the detective. 

“Again with the 

that? That old woman died in a car accident because she was drunk.” 

“Speak with more respect, lawyer, as it has already been proven that Miss Alexandra was not under the influence of alcohol. Instead, someone had tampered with her car,” the detective said angrily. 

“Right… whatever you say,” the lawyer responded dismissively. “And what does that have to do with the jewelry you’re stealing?” 

“We just discovered that those jewels were made from Miss Alexandra’s body,” Christian said, frowning. 

“What?” The lawyer was startled by the statement but quickly composed himself. “What nonsense are you saying? That’s imposs-” 

“Here’s your evidence,” Christian interrupted, pulling out the printed documents Nicholas had sent him to

“Tch_whatever,” the lawyer knew the words were true but obviously wouldn’t admit it. “And well, why are my clients unconscious on the floor?” 

“Because they had another hysterical attack,” the detective reported. “But a paramedic has attended to them.” 

“And that’s why I now want my clients taken to a medical facility to receive appropriate treatment for their current and delicate mental condition.”

“In your dreams.” Christian whispered. 

“What did you say, kid?” the lawyer said angrily.

“Calm down,” the detective ordered. “I’m sorry, lawyer, but the judge’s order has just arrived. I’m taking your clients to the state prison while awaiting their trial because they’re causing too many problems here.” 

“What…” 

“And that’s why we’re taking this opportunity to remove these pieces of evidence from your clients since they won’t need them where they’re going.” Christian said, smirking. 

That’s a lie. Return that supposed corpse to my clients because it’s their property.” 

“In fact…” Christian began, approaching his rival. If it’s confirmed that these diamonds are Miss Alexandra’s body, it means your clients have committed theft because the only one authorized to possess those jewels would be my client.”
