A Replacement Bride

Chapter 46

"What's the issue?" After hearing Katherine's words, Aberama, who had always been dawdling, became much more serious.

"Please examine Maze's surveillance footage. My brother is involved in an incident over there." Katherine's tone was neutral and it was hard to decipher her emotions. She then stood up and walked out as she spoke.

Immediately, Aberama agreed and proceeded to order some men to execute it. Since Keith's case was complicated, he wasted no time in looking into it.

Katherine had just arrived back at Soulin International when he received a call from Aberama as she walked into her apartment. She answered the phone while changing her shoes with an unconcerned voice, as if her own brother was not currently detained at the station.

"Go ahead."

"Okay, this case is not going to be easy. Keith's drug possession was discovered almost immediately. There are numerous witnesses and physical evidence, making it difficult to prove his innocence. Furthermore, police officers have recently attempted to apprehend a drug criminal. This issue is not that major, but it can't be overlooked. Someone is clearly attempting to set Keith up." Aberama's tone was solemn.

"Hm. I understand. Please send me a copy of Maze's surveillance footage. I'm sure you'll find a way to do so." Katherine simply nodded and walked over to the couch. She then sat down and turned on the television with the remote control.

Keith's incident had made the local news and the issue was not one to be overlooked. Still, there was no way that the Cornells could not have been unaware of the news. It was either that they deliberately ignored the situation or they were forcing Katherine to come forward and beg them.

Watching the news, Katherine sneered as she observed the young man in handcuffs being arrested at the Maze. His face was turned toward the camera at that time and he appeared to be unharmed. As a result, his injury had to have occurred after entering the detention facility.

She tapped her finger twice on the couch as Aberama continued, "No problem. What are your plans? I can assist you with this matter by using some connections. You—"

"No. I want Keith to be proven completely innocent," Katherine declared while declining his offer.

Aberama was well aware of her temperament and chose to remain silent. He hung up the phone and emailed her the surveillance footage from Maze.

Katherine watched videos of Keith entering the Maze and thoughtfully touched her chin with her
