Chapter 590
Maia would be merely charged as an accomplice at the most.
Catelyn was cleaning the house when she heard the news.
She had not been home for long. Stella did not usually cook, and there were a few corners in
the kitchen that needed a thorough cleaning.
Catelyn had just taken out the trash from the kitchen when she heard the news reporting on
TV about Maia and Richard.
The news reported that the police escorted Maia and Richard to the police station.
They had just disembarked from the long flight, and both appeared to be exhausted.
It was especially apparent in Maia, with tears rolling down her eyes and almost falling over.
She pretended to be emotionally strong but vulnerable, making people wonder if she really
was wrongly accused.
Richard looked very decadent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis chin was covered in stubbles, the light in his eyes vanished, while he was tagging along
behind the police soulessly.
The journalists all surrounded them when they got the information.
This was some spicy gossip about the two wealthy families in Sapphire City.
"Miss Clark, your engagement with Cedrick Mason was canceled publicly. Was it because Cedrick caught you
sleeping with other men many times before and knew that you cheated on him?”
"We heard that you were charged for attempting murder this time..."
"Even if Cedrick canceled the engagement with you, the Clark family had received enough perks from the
Mason family. The Mason family is still on the losing end...”
"Miss Clark, what do you think about the whole situation?"
The cameras flashed incessantly.
Maia had not expected to be interviewed by the reporters and panicked.
The journalists threw harsher questions, and her voice started to sound shaky.
"Which company are you from? Don't you make false accusations without evidence! I have not done it. This was all
done by Richard. It has nothing to do with me! He admitted it himself..."
The reporter immediately directed his mic to Richard as soon as he heard this.
"Mister Kingsley, what Miss Clark said was true? Are you the real culprit who poisoned Cedrick?"
"Rumors had it that you were classmates with Miss Clark, and had long had a crush on Miss Clark. Is this the reason
why you are taking all the charges on behalf of her?"
"Mister Kingsley, someone witnessed you getting a gynae doctor to your place in the middle of the night. Is Miss
Clark pregnant with your child? How many months along is she? Does Cedrick know about it?"
Maia’s face turned pale. Even the news reporters knew that she was pregnant!
How was that possible?
She was hiding it very carefully...
Was it Catelyn? Did Catelyn deliberately arrange for these news reporters to make her look bad?
Maia subconsciously turned around to check. Her gaze was intense, and she looked wary.
Richard’s gaze swept past Maia's belly. He closed his eyes gently and took a deep breath.
Then he walked in front of Maia, blocking the fiery questions from the reporters for her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mai already said it very clearly, that this has nothing to do with her. It was all done by me!"
"What? You admitted it?"
"You might be sentenced to death in the worst case!"
"Richard, don't you be manipulated by people..."
The police were impatient to see the chaos and pushed the reporters aside from the middle,
clearing a way ahead of them.
Maia and Richard then arrived at the police station.
Maia pulled Richard by his hand nervously.
"Rich, it's my fault. You must help me. You cannot let our child be born in prison. Please
don’t worry. I will
find the best lawyer in town to represent you when I get out, and you will be fine too..."
Richard threw her hand away coldly. "You better keep to your promise." "I will, I will name
my kid Kingsley, and he will be part of the Kingsley family...”
