Chapter 362


Clara was already laying limp against the sofa. Only stutters were coming out from her lips at this point.


All the Cowells were stunned when they saw this. “She might actually be involved in Simon’s death!‘


The technicians continued to recover more data from Clara’s phone, only handing it over for Adrian to go through when they were done.


Adrian looked through the recovered data for a while before looking up at Clara. “You’ve also been to a cafe, it seems.


“You there. Take your men with you to that cafe and investigate the place.”


Thus, Daniel once again ordered his men to move out.


“You’ve also been in frequent contact with a man by the name of Seth De Forrest. There’s also a text message that you deleted from your phone where you asked how Simon’s body was dealt with.


“Tell me…Why did you ask Seth how the body was dealt with?


“Were you the one who killed Simon Black?”


Feeling as though a bolt of lightning had struck her, Clara trembled and fell onto her knees, bawling her eyes out like a mad


woman.


“Answer me… Why did you ask this man how the body was dealt with?”


Clara was trembling so vigorously on her knees, when suddenly.


Her trouser was suddenly soaked as a pool of yellow liquid flowed out of her!


All the Cowells closed their eyes and turned away when they saw this. None of them had expected her to be Simon’s murderer.


“Why?!” Violet yelled, “Why would you kill him, Clara?! Why would you do such an inhumane thing?!”


“Grandmother, I…I didn’t mean to kill him.” Sobbing, Clara said, “It was an accident! I swear! I was afraid so I…”


Still crying, Clara crawled her way toward Adrian and grabbed his leg. “Legate. Sir! You have to believe me. I swear I never meant to kill him! I just hit him with an ashtray, and he… He just died!”


Adrian looked down at Clara, who was on her knees begging for mercy and heaved a helpless sigh. ‘She ruined her entire life with her horrible personality.”


Samantha, who was sitting on the steps, shut her eyes as well, unable to fathoms that Clara was capable of committing such a heinous act.


“It’s all over for her, she thought.


Adrian reached out and stroked Clara’s hair. “Clara Cowell. If you must hate someone for your actions, hate your


grandmother. Her stupidity and ignorance were what affected your life choices.”


Clara stared at Adrian with her mouth agape, unable to understand why Adrian would say such a thing.


Meanwhile, Adrian took a deep breath before he said, “Take Clara back to the department. Because of how heinous her actions


were after committing a murder, plus witnessing how cruel she can be, I now sentence her to death. Her punishment will be carried out in three days.”


Du–dunn!


Clara fell flat on the ground, her entire body trembling non–stop.


Meanwhile, the other Cowells stared in shock.


Truly driven to madness, Clara cried as she yelled, “I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! Please! Please don’t kill me! I don’t want to die!


“Father! Father!!!”


Clara locked at Nathan in despair, the latter who quickly got down on his knees and begged, “Please sir! Please give my daughter a chance to redeem and repent her actions!*


Without giving a reply, Adrian turned around and looked at Daniel. “Have your men arrest Seth De Forrest immediately. Inform the department in Northrive to conduct a thorough investigation on the De Forrest family and kill everyone remotely involved in this murder.”


“Yes, sir.”
