Chapter 673

This was the first time Thalia truly steeled herself.

After all, the lesson from Stan’s family was fresh in her mind. Repeated tolerance and leniency toward people who didn’t deserve it only led to being betrayed.

Thalia thought it was better to let the law handle it. So, she chose to call the police.

In a very short time, Jeffrey was arrested.

At first, he denied everything. After all, he had gone to the summit early before dawn and wiped away all traces of his tracks. He even wore rubber gloves when he pushed Thalia to avoid leaving fingerprints.

As long as there was no evidence against him, the police could not take any action unless he confessed.

However, Jeffrey didn’t know that the summit of Sanctuary Mountain was under surveillance.

The cameras had been installed years ago after a series of accidents, including falls and suicides. Two cameras were placed on either side of the mountaintop for monitoring.

Jeffrey hadn’t accounted for this detail in his calculations.

Once this evidence was presented, his motive for attempted murder was undeniable.

When Charlie learned about the situation, he was scared out of his wits. He hurriedly left work and rushed home. He only felt relieved after confirming that his wife and daughter were safe.

Charlie didn’t expect his brother–in–law, whom Charlie had treated as one of his own, would attempt to kill his sister over such a ridiculous reason.

Charlie found it utterly deranged.

On the day Jeffrey was arrested, his wife, Kaya Ruiz, stormed into the Kelley family’s residence, furiously pointing at Thalia and berating her.

“Are you out of your mind? How could you call yourself a Ruiz? How could you send your brother to the police? I don’t care what you say. You need to withdraw the case immediately!”

There was no apology, no plea for forgiveness, or a lighter sentence. Instead, it was an arrogant and commanding tone that insisted on Thalia’s compliance.

Thalia couldn’t help but laugh in exasperation.

She thought maybe she was too agreeable in the past, giving people the impression she was easy to manipulate.

Unwilling to argue with such a shrewish woman, Thalia waved her hand and ordered, “Show her out.”

“Yes.” Without a word, the house staff forcibly escorted Kaya out of the Kelley family’s estate.

Standing outside the iron gates, Kaya planted her hands on her hips and cursed for over two hours, seemingly intent on causing a scene.
