Chapter 328: Is Amber Reed Annie?

Nathaniel struggled desperately. He was the eldest son of the Farrell family, the future heir, and could not afford to have any criminal record. Such a stain would follow him for life. Each word he spoke was followed by a violent cough, the pain from his broken ribs almost killing him.

Hazel, in disbelief, kept pleading for her son, "Officer, there must be some mistake! My son couldn't have committed a crime! He's innocent!" "It's all Tina! She's trying to frame him! Arrest her instead; she's the real culprit!" Hazel cried and caused a scene, but the police ignored her and took the weakened Nathaniel away. She chased after them, pounding on the police car, refusing to leave. The police then arrested Hazel for obstructing their duties.

With Nathaniel and Hazel gone, the Reed family finally had some peace. Everyone who had been watching the drama had their own thoughts. "Alright, it's getting late," Liliosa said, breaking the silence with a light cough. "Why don't we all get some rest?" Tina looked at her and said coolly, "It seems you've forgotten something." "Yes," Audrey reminded from the side. "The person who ordered Zackary's kidnapping has been caught, but we haven't found the inside man in the Reed family yet."

"What inside man!" Liliosa immediately retorted, hands on her hips. "You believe everything those people say? They're just trying to shirk responsibility and find a way out! The Reed family would never do something so disgraceful. Stop slandering us!"

"No one mentioned you," Annabelle said with a glance at Liliosa. "Why are you so agitated?" "She's feeling guilty," Griffin suggested pointedly. "She's always disliked Tina; it's no surprise she's involved in this mess." "Nonsense!" Liliosa nearly jumped with anger. "A video proves nothing! It's all lies!" "But Mr. Farrell has already been taken by the police..." Audrey glanced at Annabelle's expression. "Could it still be false?"

Everyone knew Liliosa had it out for Tina, and now there was video evidence. Though it didn't explicitly name her, her sudden outburst made her seem guilty.

"Zackary," Tina said gently, stroking his head. "Tell me who took you away from the Reed family." Zackary looked up at her and then fearfully at everyone else. "Sister, I..." "Don't be afraid," Annabelle comforted softly. "Grandma will stand up for you; just tell us the truth loudly!"

"It was... it was..." Zackary stammered with his head down. Seeing Tina by his side gave him courage. "It was Aunt Liliosa."
