Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 466

"The truck driver has already confessed. He confirmed you hired him to kill Janet Wilcox," the officer stated flatly. "Combined with this evidence... you're looking at a minimum of five years. You should probably get a good lawyer."

"Impossible!"

The thought of going to prison made Trent snap. He shot up from his chair, his composure shattering. "This is all a setup by Juniper and Janet! I won't confess to anything!"

"Mr. Wilcox, please calm down," the officer advised.

"I want to see my lawyer!" Trent was completely unhinged, unable to fathom spending his prime years behind bars. He shoved the table aside and tried to storm out of the room.

"Grab him!"

The officers moved in immediately, but Trent resisted violently. In the struggle, he threw a punch that connected with an officer's face, knocking the man out cold.

"Don't move!" another officer shouted, drawing his gun. Only then did Trent freeze.

"Attempted murder and now assaulting an officer in a police station..." The officer who had cuffed him spoke with grim finality. "The best lawyer in the world can't help you now."

"I want to see my father!" Trent yelled. His father had connections; surely he knew someone high up.

"As for your father..." The officer gave a cold smirk as he stamped the detention papers. "His situation is a lot worse than yours."

Worse? Could it be? Had they found out what he did to Janet's father?
