Chapter 318

Tessa scrunched her brows as she swept her gaze over the groveling Jacqueline. Then, she turned to look at Stephen, who was sporting an austere expression. "What do you mean she's had others killed?"

Stephen didn't want to tell Tessa that Jacqueline had helped James in silencing people permanently.

Tessa was already worried sick over the Granger siblings, Lucas and Anne, despite barely knowing them. She couldn't sleep or eat well because of those two. So, he had a feeling that she would feel greatly distressed if she learned that innocents had met their demise at James' hands.

"Alright." Tessa lowered her gaze. She had a feeling that things weren't as simple as they seemed.

Jacqueline was expelled from the Jacobson family that very day.

Stephen then handed her over to the authorities, and Jacqueline was officially arrested.

Meanwhile, James and his men were at Arcton.

"James, Stephen has handed Jacqueline over to the cops. She has sent word that she wishes to be rescued," Liam reported.
