THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1031

Charis thought, she had to get out and get her revenge on Caitlin Kensington. She couldn't let anything happen to her.

Seeing Charis in this state, the interrogating officer narrowed her eyes. "But according to our investigation, you and Sabrina Ryan were high school classmates. And on the night of her death, you were alone with her."

"No, I wasn't!" Charis clutched her head, her eyes filled with panic. "It has nothing to do with me! Nothing at all!"

Sabrina had brought it on herself.

If she hadn't opposed me, she wouldn't have died!

The interrogating officer had a daughter of her own, and she detested people like Charis who used their power to bully others.

Seeing Charis's denial, she couldn't help but slam her hand on the table and rise, her voice filled with anger. "Sabrina's parents are right outside! Do you dare to confront them and tell them you didn't kill their daughter?"

What?

Sabrina's parents were here?

Charis's eyes widened in disbelief.

Sabrina's parents were simple folk from the countryside, unaccustomed to the ways of the world. In the immediate aftermath of Sabrina's death, they were beside themselves with grief, demanding justice for their daughter every day.

As the situation threatened to escalate, Aelfric Gonzales had contacted Sabrina's two older brothers. He gave them a huge sum of five hundred thousand dollars, telling them to lie to their parents that the suspect had already been arrested. After hearing this from their sons, Sabrina's parents had finally quieted down.

But now!

Why were they here again?

Were they trying to reopen the case?

Her family had lost its power now. If Sabrina's parents were determined to make a scene, she was truly finished.

At that moment, Sabrina's parents were kneeling in the lobby of the police station, wailing. "My daughter was only eighteen when she died! She was a good student, so sweet and well-behaved, and she was murdered just like that! Please, sir, we beg you to get justice for us!"

Sabrina's two brothers had come along, their faces grim. They couldn't understand what had gotten into their parents. They had been fine for so long, but recently, they had started acting up again.

"Mom, Dad, please get up and come home with me! What happened to Sabrina is in the past!"

"He's right. It's all over. You two are just causing trouble for the police by being here!"

Sheehan Ryan and Junior Ryan were frantic, trying to pull their parents up from the floor.

After all, they had already taken the money. If their parents made a scene now, what if Aelfric demanded the money back?

"Get away! Both of you, get away from me!" Mrs. Ryan shoved her son's hand away. "I raised two ungrateful wretches. Your sister is dead, and her death was so horrific. Not only do you not want to seek justice for her, but now you're protecting her murderer!"

Whenever Mrs. Ryan remembered the last time she saw her daughter, she felt like she couldn't breathe.

The daughter she had raised with her own two hands had ended up with her body not even whole.

Just the day before it happened, her daughter had told her that once she got into university, she would take her and her husband to The Capital, to travel all over the country.

For the past two years, Mrs. Ryan had dreamt of her daughter every night. In her dreams, her daughter was covered in blood, just staring at her without saying a word.
