Facade of Love

Chapter 81 Don’t You Want a Divorce?

If my hand was not being forced, I would never want to see that devilish man again. I also knew that if he remained unpunished, countless people would suffer under his tyranny. Lucas was a man that did not deserve to live.

Seeing my consent, he seemed to exhale in relief, expressing, “Thank you, Ms. Scott.”

I shook my head, recalling Alex’s situation, and questioned him, “Officer Jackson, how did Alex’s lover get involved with Benett?”

It did not make sense. The woman that a fugitive like Alex would be involved with could not possibly be the same one that a man like Benett would choose.

Officer Jackson furrowed his brows slightly, pausing before he replied, “Alex’s lover isn’t as simple as she seems I’ve assigned some people to keep tabs on her. You’ll be notified if anything comes up.”

I nodded. The affairs of the Scott Corporation were pressing. Although I was curious about this mysterious woman, I did not need to waste too much energy on her.
