Chapter 1255 Matthew looked furious while Janine‘s eyes were red and swollen from all the crying. Her usual
elegance and dignified posture of a rich lady were nowhere to be seen; all anyone could see was a mother sobbing
to see her daughter.
Sherry unconsciously tightened her lips. She had disappeared for more than 24 hours, and no one knew if she was
alive or dead, yet her parents only cared about Shannon who had been arrested for contracted murder and even
caused a scene in front of the station.
Sherry tapped the cross to close the picture. She then scrolled down for more comments.
“Based on their outfits, they don‘t seem like any John and Jane Doe. They must be the parents of the arrested
lady.”
“I pity them as parents. I wonder why the lady would want to kill someone instead of enjoying her life as the wife of
the richest man. Could it be related to the husband himself?”
The particular comment attracted heat from other netizens, all wanting to defend John‘s reputation and status.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMost of them were local Glenchesterians, and some of them even listed John‘s contributions to the city.
The original poster was forced to apologize for the comment.
In the end, someone came up with a conclusion. “If it really is related to the richest man in the city, he would have
been caught as well. If the man uses his wealth and resources to keep things down, we wouldn‘t be seeing this
article either, so let‘s just wait for the official statement from the police department.”
Coincidentally, right after Sherry went through all the comments, the Glenchester Police Department released an
official statement regarding the arrest.
The statement attracted a lot of netizens, including Sherry herself.
The statement was long and detailed. It explained how they had received a call from the Stocktons‘ residence and
investigated the case based on the clues given. It was just that morning when they determined that Shannon was
the culprit and arrested her at home.
However, the statement did not mention that Shannon‘s target was Sherry.
The mention of the Stocktons in the statement also sparked a heated discussion.
“Oh my goodness. Could the husband have turned his wife in himself?”
The particular comment swiftly gathered attention and
similar opinions.
“So, who is the lady trying to kill? Could the man not have known and called the police?”
More and more comments flooded the comment sections.
It was then that the police department‘s public relations officer emerged and answered the people‘s questions.”
This involves the privacy of the family, so we cannot reveal it to the public.”
The netizens swiftly understood what happened.
“So, it all started because of some family conflict?”
“I heard the couple only got married like two months ago, and now this has happened.”
“The lady is really ruthless. What could have led her to hire a killer?”
“She could‘ve enjoyed being the richest man‘s wife, but she just had to get herself involved in murder. I guess that‘s
the end of her life.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSherry emotionlessly went through all the comments. Ding!
She suddenly received an email on her phone.
After getting the phone from Sylvia, she did not download any social media apps on the phone in order to
prevent John from knowing that she was alive. She only logged in to her email so that her contacts could contact
her just in an emergency. Who could have emailed her at this hour?
She tapped on the email and saw the sender‘s name highlighted in bold—John Stockton.
Her expression went cold.
The mail contained the message he wanted to convey.
“Sherry, did you read the news? She‘s been caught, and I‘ve gotten the best lawyer to make sure she stays behind
bars for the rest of her life. If you come back to me now, I‘ll forgive you for what you did to me six years ago.”
Sherry‘s hands started to shake. So, the news she just read had been intentionally released under John’s order?
Shannon had it coming, but it was John who had started this by marrying her. If he had not given her hope and
made her Mrs. Stockton, Shannon would not have come up with the idea of killing Sherry.
