“Six years ago, the day of your accident. Brettley and I had always been in Sea City on business meetings. I remember early that morning, Cynthal, who was Brettley’s secretary at that time, said that she was not feeling well. She went back to Banyan City ahead of us. Brettley and Cynthal were not in the same city that day, how did you spoil their affair?”
Bethan was in a daze. She looked at Jude in disbelief. “I have proof! “
Looking at her doubtful eyes, Jude harrumphed coldly. He immediately opened his social media and found the video he took of Brettley and him having a meeting on the day Bethan had the accident six years ago.
That time, the caption of his video was, (The Xth day of business meetings with Mr. Morrison. It’s 1 p.m. now. This meeting has been going on for five hours already. I’m hungry.]
Playing the video, Brettley was still standing in the main seat, being in a heated discussion with the other party.
His face was filled with some tiredness and haggardness.
Looking at the video on Jude’s social media, Bethan was stunned for a long while.
Jude did not need to lie to her. Also, she did not believe Brettley, who wanted her dead back then, would get his good friend to post a video on social media to fake an alibi.
Bethan was a little in a daze.
“S -So…you guys were really in Sea City the entire day on business meetings?”
“Of course! “
Jude rolled his eyes. “I still remember clearly the day of your accident! We had spent six hours and finally came to a deal. When we were about to sign the deal, we heard of your accident.
Brettley immediately abandoned the deal and rushed back from Sea City, but we were still a step too late. We could not even find your body.”
Bethan bit her lips. However, that day…
She clearly heard Cynthal and Brettley going at it in the room.
Suddenly, her eyes widened. She suddenly recalled.
At that time, Cynthal always wanted to be a voice actor.
She had been learning all sorts of audio software. Cynthal even edited a clip of audio of something that she had never said to Bethan, to get Bethan to find any mistakes.
Bethan could not find any at that time.
Thus…
Bethan suddenly stood up and stormed off. “Where are you going?”
“To look for Jason. I need to make sure of something.”
When Bethan returned to the house of Jason’s wife, the police were already there.
Bonnie had been taken away by the ambulance. The police and the forensics were preserving and investigating the crime scene.
Jason was being hand-cuffed. He was about to be taken away.
Bethan walked over. After communicating with the police, they gave her three minutes to talk to Jason.
“What? Did you come here to laugh at me?”
Jason sneered and looked at Bethan. The handcuffs on his hands were shining a cold silvery gleam.
Bethan took a deep breath. She raised her gaze and looked at him.
“Jason, things have gotten to this stage. I hope you can tell me the truth.”
Bethan’s voice was cold and aloof.
“Six years ago, when Brettley got you to crash into me, how did he tell you? Did he get you to directly kick me off the bridge or use the car and continue crashing into me? Do you remember what he said? “
Jason furrowed his brows. A hint of franticness flashed across his eyes.
After a while, he harrumphed, “I don’t remember anymore. It has been so long ago, who could remember it?”
Bethan narrowed her eyes.
“But that was the first time that you committed murder, you really don’t remember? Then do you remember how Brettley negotiated the deal with you? Did he directly offer five hundred thousand for you to crash into me with your car or did you ask for it? Did you meet him face to face or was it through a phone call? Where did you guys meet?”
Jason furrowed his brows and looked at her.
At that moment, Bethan was so calm it was terrifying.
He paused a little and swept an annoyed glance at Bethan.
“A matter that involves so much money, of course, Mr. Morrison and I have met to talk about it! The morning of the accident, he looked for me and directly offered me five hundred thousand, asking me whether I would do it or not.”
Then, he harrumphed coldly.
“Why are you asking me all these? Do you not believe that Brettley would kill you? Sadly, that’s the truth! The man you loved the most wants to kill you!”
Jason looked at Bethan with extreme loathing in his eyes. “Look at you. How pathetic!”
Bethan laughed.
“Your wife and child are even more pathetic, Jason.”
Jason’s pupil constricted fiercely when Bethan mentioned his wife and kid.
His eyes narrowed. “I’m different! I killed them because they were disobedient!”
Jason barked hysterically and started to struggle, “I did not intend to kill them! Just because they received a little reward from Brettley, they forced me to break up with Bonnie. They want me to go back home with them with hundreds of thousands of dollars to live abroad!
“They said that they could not adapt to this country, that life was inconvenient here. These are all excuses! They only said that because they were swayed by Brettley’s money! “
Jason yelled. The cuffs on his hands were clanging.
“Brettley thought of persuading my wife and child to get me to give up on Bonnie and her billions of inheritance! I can’t do it!”
The policeman behind him rushed over and pinned Jason to the ground. “Be still! “
Even if he was being pinned on the ground, Jason still kept yelling hysterically non-stop.
“I didn’t mean to kill them! They forced my hand! No one could stop me from being a wealthy person! No one! Bonnie wanted to cancel the marriage. She wanted to hurt me together with you, she can dream on! I brought her here to show her what would happen to her if she doesn’t listen to me! “
Jason was being hauled away by the policemen.
Bethan remained in the same spot. She clenched her fists tightly by her side, then she relaxed them. She clenched once more and relaxed them again.
Her mind was in a mess.
If, according to Jude, on that day six years ago, Brettley was in Sea City having a meeting…
How could he possibly look for Jason early in the morning?
Also, things like murdering and looting, according to how cautious Brettley was, he would not have directly met with Jason.
After all, this was no small matter.
Phone records could be erased, but meeting in person, there was surveillance and witnesses everywhere…
It was impossible to not leave evidence. Brettley would not be so stupid.
Also…
Bethan shuddered at what Jason said after that.
Brettley managed to convince Jason’s wife and child to get them to persuade Jason to give up?
Bethan closed her eyes. She had mixed feelings.
Previously, Bethan had also thought of this method.
To get Jason’s wife and child to persuade Jason to give up, then bring Jason to justice. That would be the least harmful way for Bonnie.
However…
Upon thinking how troublesome executing this method was plus how she was not good at persuading others, Bethan gave up this plan.
She never would have thought that Brettley secretly did it.
