FreeNovelChapter 2053 You Deserve To Rot In Hell The pain inflicted on Winnie's nerves did not last long, and after several minutes, she climbed to her feet unaided. Bits of snow covered her face as she gazed at Roxanne fearfully.
“If you don't want to experience such torment again, you'd better explain everything. How did you poison my mother back then?” Roxanne demanded, her eyes still blazing with fury.
At the same time, Lucian secretly started the voice recorder.
“I really didn't do anything. Grant is about to die soon, yet he still wants to slander me before his dying breath,” Winnie replied, dropping into a crouching position.

Her demeanor was gradually shifting. Letting her gaze fall on the murderous bodyguards, then at her son’s broken hand, a realization dawned on her. With Roxanne's current capabilities, she can destroy my family whenever she wishes, more so now that she has the support of the powerful Farwell family. Hence, it doesn't seem to make a difference whether or not | admit to it.
A sneer tugged on her lips as that thought crossed her mind, and both Roxanne and Lucian noticed it.
“Why would he frame you? Stop trying to be funny. On the contrary, he wants to protect you! Did you know he wanted to commit suicide to help you keep your secret?” Inwardly, Roxanne kept reminding herself to stay calm.
Otherwise, no matter how | try to seek revenge on her now, nothing | do will truly make her suffer.
“Really? Suicide, you say? Hahaha! Well, is he dead? He'd better be. That guy doesn't deserve to live. What else has he brought to the lives of my children and me apart from misfortune?” No longer writhing in pain, Winnie started getting increasingly worked up.
It did not shock Roxanne to hear Winnie talk about Grant like that. After all, she has had a hard life with him over the past few years, which serves her right. Even so, he gave her everything she wanted in the beginning. He bought her a mansion and luxury cars, even waiting on her hand and foot.
“You should just admit what you did. My mother had always been in good health. However, her health took a strange turn during the last few years of her life. She would have dizzy spells and fall over, and we later found out that she was suffering from multiple organ damage. | used to think it was because of how devastated she had been, never imagining that someone as monstrous as you would exist on this earth!” Even though Roxanne kept pressing Winnie for answers, the latter's expression grew increasingly relaxed.
Suddenly, the mocking smile on Winnie's lips widened. “I know you want to record my words when | confess to my crime. What a pity that an audio recording like yours won't be considered valid in the eyes of the law. Since you obtained it through coercive methods, there's no chance it'll be of any use.” Roxanne was stunned, and her eyes flicked toward Lucian.
His brows drew together sharply. It seems Winnie is more difficult to deal with than | had imagined. Now that | think about it, it does make sense. She's a mistress who schemed for many years and finally got rid of the original spouse. Apart from her vain and arrogant facade, her true nature is well-hidden. She gives the impression that she lacks emotional intelligence, but that's actually all a convincing pretense.

“That's true. An audio recording like this won't be admissible as evidence in court. Nonetheless, it's possible to find clues in a recording. For example, what you said just now proves that you did it,” Lucian responded, taking out the voice recorder. There was an icy glint in his eyes as he strode over to Winnie until he was one meter away from her.
Despite his terrifying aura, Winnie maintained her composure. She even nodded in agreement at his reasoning.
“It really was you! Winnie Chardon, you deserve to rot in hell!” Roxanne clenched her teeth in anger, infuriated that a murderer still had the audacity to act so haughtily.
When she walked past Lucian, however, he quickly held her back.
On high alert, he cautioned, “Don't go any closer. She might have a lethal weapon, and you'll get hurt!”
