Chapter 675

None of this was a coincidence. It was a meticulously crafted plan

Tiffany exploited his fear of death, guiding him to commit an unforgivable mistake.

Everything unfolded seamlessly. Jeffrey was convicted, sentenced, and destined to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Jeffrey’s eyes burned with rage, his blood boiling with the desire to confront Tiffany and tear her apart to vent his fury.

But then, he recalled that day atop Sanctuary Mountain, the cer way Tiffany had moved, and the inexplicable stiffness that overtook his body. He began to wonder if those supernatural events had also been her doing

But if that were the case, it would only raise more questions. Jeffrey wracked his brain, unable to make sense of it.

Still, one thing was certain. He would not take this humiliation lying down.

Keeping his head down to avoid being recognized, Jeffrey dared not take a taxi. Instead, he walked to a park two streets away from his home.

He suspected the police might be staking out his house, so going back was not an option,

In the park, he borrowed an elderly man’s phone to call home.

To his surprise, the person who picked up was Molly.

She asked, “Hello, who is this?”

Jeffrey replied, “It’s me.”

“Dad?” Molly was stunned. She had left home and wasn’t planning to return. The fact that her father had not only attempted murder but also become a fugitive was a heavy blow.

She scolded, “Dad, how could you even think of harming Aunt Thalia? She’s always been so good to us. What were you thinking?”

Before Jeffrey could respond, Molly scolded him furiously, making his face darken. “Shut up and bring me some money,

now!”

With cash in hand, he figured he could go into hiding until things cooled down.

Molly said, “Dad, you need to turn yourself in. Running won’t help. You might evade the law for a day or two, but can you really escape forever?”

“Are you deaf? Do what I said!” Jeffrey roared, his patience snapping. “Bring me the money now if you don’t want me dead!”

“Dad…” Molly sighed in frustration. “Where are you?”
