Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After (Linsey)

Chapter 1161:

Jeffery’s brow furrowed in deep reflection. “I just don’t understand why Joanne would suddenly turn against Alicia like that. Thank goodness Alicia made it through.”

Linsey cast a glance toward Dolores, hesitating for a brief moment before replying with calm resolve, “There’s no need. Joanne is already dead.”

A flicker of shock shadowed Jeffery’s features. “Dead?” he repeated, stunned.

Linsey nodded slowly. “The police feared she’d try to harm Alicia again. They aimed for her wrist to disarm her—but she moved too erratically. The bullet struck her in the chest. She died on the spot.”
