The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 263

“Ouch.” Joanna couldn’t help but moan!

Her arm was also splashed with a few drops of sulfuric acid. Although the wound had been treated, it still hurt

terribly.

Bruce’s heart skipped a beat. His heart ached as he checked Joanna’s injuries. “Quick, let me take a look!”

“I’m fine!”

“Kevin’s injuries are very serious! He’s still in the operating room!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll get the doctor to treat him well!”

“Okay.” Joanna was a little frightened!

“Lie down and rest!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll stay here and watch over you!”

Joanna’s heart was in a mess. She lay weakly on the hospital bed.

Bruce guarded by her side, his hawk–like eyes emitting a dense cold light.

It had only been a month since the last attack. He did not expect there to be a second wave so soon!

It seemed that Roxanne and Ingrid were determined to kill her! He did not want to kill Roxanne, but it seemed that

there was no need to hold back

anymore.

Beep, beep, beep!

Bruce’s face darkened as he called the chief of police!

“I want the perpetrator of the attack on Joanna to be sentenced severely!”

“Understood!” the police chief replied in a deep voice!

He was able to become a superintendent because of the Everett family’s support. Therefore, Bruce’s words were

an order.

Soon, Gavin was detained for terrorist murder!

Coupled with the pressure from Bruce, he would be put behind bars for at least 20 years.

There were many death row inmates in prison who didn’t care about their lives. It was too easy to kill a person!

Gavin had offended Bruce. It was probably very difficult for him to walk out of the prison alive!

Meanwhile, at the Haynes’s house!

Roxanne lay on the sofa in boredom. She was still racking her brains to think of a way to turn the tables!

The news was being broadcasted on the television!

“Something happened today. There’s an incident of a criminal throwing sulfuric acid at the Haynes Group!

“The chairman of the Haynes Group was almost disfigured by sulfuric acid. The criminal has been arrested by the

police…”

Roxanne’s heart sank when she heard this news report. She hurriedly watched the replay again!

On the television screen, Gavin was handcuffed and had his arm twisted behind his back. He was escorted into the

police car by two police officers!

Gavin was still roaring uncontrollably, “Joanna, you’re dead! I’m going to kill you, I’m going to avenge Roxy..”

After reading this message, Roxanne was shocked. Her eyes were red and her eyeballs almost popped out of their

sockets!

She was just angry when she said that she wanted Gavin to kill Joanna!

However, she did not expect Gavin to really do it!

This was bad. Gavin had no power or background. After entering the prison, he would probably not come out alive!

More importantly, if she was implicated, the police would probably think that she was the mastermind!

Roxanne’s heart was pounding, and her face was pale!

“Gavin, you damn bastard, you’ve really caused a lot of trouble for me!”

“Why are you so stupid? So stupid. Boohoo…”

Roxanne could not help but cry bitterly. On one hand, she hated Gavin’s stupidity, but on the other hand, she could

not help but be touched!

She had just said it casually, but she did not expect him to take it seriously! From this, it could be seen how

important she was to Gavin!

As Roxanne was crying, someone rang the doorbell.

The servants went over to open the door. A few serious–looking police officers flashed their police badges at the

servants!

“We are the police. This is an investigation order! Please get Miss Roxanne Haynes to come out!”

“Oh, officers, come in!”

”

Ingrid heard the voice and came down from the room upstairs. “Haylee, who’s here?”

Just as she reached the staircase, she saw a few police officers walking into the living room aggressively!

Boom!

Seeing this, Ingrid’s legs went weak and she felt a chill down her back..

Shaun also walked out of the room. When he saw that it was a police officer, he was also shocked!

“Officers, what’s the matter?”

The police officer in the lead flashed his police badge. “We suspect that Miss Roxanne Haynes is related to a murder

case. Please follow us to the police station to cooperate with the investigation!”

“Officers, is there a mistake?”

“There’s no mistake!” With that, a few police officers rushed upstairs and arrested Roxanne!

In the room, Roxanne also heard the commotion and was scared out of her wits!

The police officer flashed his police badge and arrest warrant. “Miss Roxanne Haynes. Please come with us to the

police station. This is the arrest

warrant!”

“Dad, Mom, I’m not going. I don’t want to go to the police station!” Roxanne was so frightened that his face turned

pale!

Shaun’s heart was also in a mess. “Roxy, don’t panic first! Follow the officers to the police station first. I will contact

a lawyer to save you immediately!”

Two police officers stepped forward and prepared to detain Roxanne!

“Officer, Roxy is pregnant. Please don’t handcuff her! She will go with you obediently!”

“Roxy, don’t be afraid. Go to the police station first! I will be there to accompany you soon!”

When Roxanne heard this, tears streamed down her face. “Dad, Mom, you have to find a lawyer quickly!”

“Got it!”

Roxanne calmed herself down and followed the police officer downstairs!

Just as she was about to get into the police car!

Ingrid ran out of the house. “Roxy, don’t talk nonsense when you’re at the police station. Wait for the lawyer to go

over…”

Half an hour later!

Roxanne was brought to the police station!

In the interrogation room, Roxanne sat opposite the interrogator with a pale face!

The two police officers looked at her with a serious expression and prepared to take a statement.

“Ms. Haynes, did you send this message?”

A police officer flashed the printed message!

It was a message she sent to Gavin in a fit of pique. ‘I’ll forgive you if you kill Joanna.

After reading it, Roxanne’s face turned even paler and her entire body trembled uncontrollably. “I don’t know. I

don’t know anything!

“He wanted to do it himself. I had no idea!”

“Then why would you send him a message like that? Do you hold a grudge against the victim, Joanna?”

“I didn’t, I really didn’t!

“I want to go home. Hurry up and let me go! You can’t accuse me like this. I really didn’t do anything!” Roxanne

became agitated!

“We suspect you of instigating the suspect to commit assault!”

“You have the right to remain silent, but anything you say will be used against you in a court of law! You can also

hire a lawyer to defend you!”

When Roxanne heard that, she panicked even more!

Other than Gavin, she had also murdered Margaret. Coupled with the fact that she had been in a tense state, she

could not withstand the pressure and collapsed. “Ah! My stomach hurts. I want to apply for medical parole!”

“Ms. Haynes, don’t be nervous! It’s just a suspicion now. There’s no final verdict. You can only stay in the police

station for now!”

“The sulfuric acid case really has nothing to do with me. I really don’t know. I was just saying it casually. I didn’t

expect him to really do something stupid!”

“Ms. Haynes, in addition to the sulfuric acid case, we also suspect that you hired someone to kill the victim Joanna!

“This is your transfer record. May I ask why you transferred the money to a stranger’s account?”

“I didn’t, I didn’t do it! It wasn’t me, it really wasn’t me!” Roxanne trembled and was about to faint!

Seeing that she was so nervous, the two police officers looked at each other. “The suspect is pregnant and highly

nervous. I suggest we take our time to interrogate her.”

“Alright!

Take her to the infirmary first and make sure she’s safe!”

“Alright!”

Soon, Roxanne was sent to the infirmary again!

After all, she was pregnant. Regardless of whether she was guilty or not, the police had to ensure the safety of her

and the child!

However, during this period of time, the police had already collected a large amount of evidence! All the evidence

pointed to Roxanne, suspecting that she was the real culprit who hired someone to kill Joanna!

Roxanne lay on the hospital bed, feeling uneasy and praying for the lawyer to come quickly!

At around nine in the afternoon, Shaun and Ingrid finally arrived with their lawyer!

After understanding the situation, the lawyer began to help analyze the situation! He also specially told her some

things to take note of during the interrogation.

The next day!

Everyone who had contacted Roxanne recently was called to the police station!

This included Kensley!

In the interrogation room!

“This is your account, right? Why would Ms. Haynes give you so much money?”

“…” Kensley tried his best to hide the panic in his heart!

“Confess and we can consider lightening your punishment!”

“I’ll keep quiet until my lawyer gets here!”

“You can’t leave the police station for the next 24 hours! You can only leave after the matter is investigated!”

“I know!”

Kensley was also detained at the police station for investigation!

Shaun and Ingrid were even more anxious.

“What should we do?”

“Will Roxy go to jail?”

“It’s all your fault. You spoiled her like this!”

“How did I spoil her?”
