Chapter 183

“Our men are on their way to bring Steve in for questioning,” Zion said.

I hung up the phone and stared at Steven.

If he was the one who ordered the hit, would the driver have given out his name that easily?

It was evident that the driver had framed Steven by alleging that he’d ordered him to hit Aunty Lois with a car.

Zion must have also been aware that Steven was framed, so he called me in advance to

Since Michael would only face a maximum of 15 days of detention, Aunty Lois had no reason to stage this accident and jeopardize her own life.

“Michael’s mother was hit by a car, so I’m heading to go to the hospital now. Stay home and wait for me, okay?” I was worried about what those ignorant netizens and the people behind this accident might do if they found Steven leaving the house.
