Chapter 317 Brazenly Committing a Crime


Seeing Stuart's gaze directed at Alaric lying on the hospital bed, Stellan and Cormac instinctively blocked his view. "What happened to Mr. Knight? Did he beat Todd so badly that he ended up in the hospital himself?" Stuart's tone was filled with hatred.

"Stuart, I completely understand your pain as a father at this moment, but I still need to explain to you that Todd kidnapped me first. He tried to assault me. If it weren't for Alaric arriving in time, I would have been a corpse by now, raped and murdered." Stellan said.

"I also admit that Alaric did hit Todd, but given Todd's beastly behavior, who could hold back? And I can assure you that when Alaric and I left, Todd was still alive, and there was no fire. As for the reason of his death, you can ask the police to investigate; it has nothing to do with us," Stellan added.

When Stuart heard this, his face darkened, and his expression became particularly terrifying. He stepped towards Stellan, looking like he wanted to attack her.

"Stuart!" Cormac immediately stood in front of Stellan, looking at Stuart and asking, "May I ask what you are here for today? If you are here to visit Alaric, we appreciate it, but if not, please leave."

Stuart snorted angrily and said directly, "Alaric killed Todd. You ask why I'm here? A life for a life. Todd is dead, and I want Alaric to pay with his life!"

Stellan retorted, "You want Alaric to pay with his life? Then who should I go to when Alaric is still lying unconscious in the hospital bed?"

Stellan's emotions completely erupted, and she showed no sign of backing down. "You're sad that Todd is dead, but I'm even sadder that Alaric was innocently implicated. Who caused this situation? Wasn't it your lustful, lawless son? He brought this upon himself. We are the victims. If anyone should be seeking justice, it's us against the Vale Family, not the other way around!" Stuart thought that his barging into the Knight manor was something even Marigold couldn't handle, and now Stellan was being so brazen!

in front of Stellan, reminding him, "We've made it very clear just now that this whole thing started because of Todd. Now, Alaric and Stellan-one almost got raped, and the other is still unconscious. If Todd were still alive, he would not only be in jail, but the Vale Family would also owe us a huge compensation." Cormac went
