Chapter 168 No Other Way 30., 60%= Finished

Isabella discovered that all of this was orchestrated by Linda's lawyer who advised Javier to say that. They had completely downplayed the severity of the matter, turning it into a simple romantic dispute. Normally, when dealing with individuals who had previously been in a romantic relationship, the approach was similar to handling domestic violence cases, with the primary focus being on educational principles. The severity of the situation was merely due to Scarlett's suicide.

Javier insisted that he had no idea that Scarlett would crumble under the pressure and lose hope. He couldn't be blamed for this. After all, it was her own family who had swindled her out of her money, leaving her with no way out.

The most crucial point was that after being blackmailed, Scarlett hadn't actually transferred any money. Furthermore, there was no evidence found that indicated Javier had any gambling debts. The only things that could be traced were the photos and threatening messages, all of which were sent by Javier. The photos were merely a bit more provocative than usual.

So, as long as Javier insisted that all of this was just a little ploy to win back his girlfriend, it was indeed hard to judge it as something serious.

Sickly released.

With Linda's assistance, Javier was

The only silver lining was that the police had already dealt with all the private photos and videos stored in Javier's phone. They ensured that there were no remnants left in any storage space. Hence, Scarlett no longer had any incriminating evidence left in Javier's possession.

But Scarlett would still need to consult with a lawyer for the subsequent issue of filing a lawsuit. After all, the case was ongoing. It was just a matter of shifting the perspective to fight for her rights.

Roland didn't elaborate on the details. In truth, he hadn't given up on investigating Javier's gambling debt. The fact that there was a debt but no trace of it suggested the possibility of an underground casino. If he managed to trace this back to some underground forces, that would certainly be a feather in his cap.

However, on the surface, Roland still suggested that they inform Scarlett. After the performance, they should promptly attend to the case.

Listening to Rosalie's brief rundown of the situation, Isabella and Christopher grimaced.

Linda is such a fool... Wait a minute. She even had the audacity to call and argue with Mdm, Pearson, firmly believing that Javier had simply lost his way because of Scarlett. She thought Scarlett shouldn't have called the police at all and blamed her for scaring her precious godson.

She still doesn't believe that Javier has become obsessed with gambling. Her blind support for Javier is really something

Christopher and Rosalie recalled the first time Linda came to their home, and they couldn't help but shake their heads in disgust.

It was no surprise that Javier turned out this way, with such a biased godmother who could never see his Taults. Regardless of his mistakes, he knew there was always someone on his side.

from the police, he doesn't dare to demand a large amount of money. He has no other way. Hahaha. I'm really curious. What would he do if debt collectors came knocking on his door? Suddenly, Isabella felt that not Javier being arrested by the police might not be such a good thing after all.

Freya had just hung up the phone on Linda's incessant chatter. Linda had been blaming her, accusing her of trusting a stranger over her own son. She said that Freya failed to help her son out of his predicament and even aided the culprit. She even
