Chapter 425 The Edge of Betrayal

Beau was ruthless, and his methods for making people disappear were highly sophisticated.

It was clear that he was experienced in handling such matters.

Even if the target was his own daughter..

"Beau had someone corner Clarissa in an alley and planned to throw her off the building to make it look like an accident," Caden said, his face dark with anger as he found Kelly at the Lockhart Group.

"If Charles hadn't been able to fight, they would have killed Clarissa," Caden said, dropping down on the sofa, clearly shaken. He had never encountered such a situation before. "Do you know how insane those people were? This is Scaville, and they actually..."

"You're saying they wanted to drag Clarissa upstairs and throw her down?" Kelly's eyelid twitched as she fixed her gaze on Caden."

Caden nodded.

Kelly trusted very few people; in this situation, she could only rely on Caden and Charles.

Fortunately, Clarissa had survived.

However, the method used to kill her was eerily similar to the way Tyson had died. Everyone knew that Tyson's death was no accident-he had been murdered. They also knew Beau was involved, but the evidence had been wiped clean.

There was no way to pin anything on him, just like how her parents' deaths had been erased from history under the guise of a fire and a forced demolition.

"Clarissa, your current residence is safe for now. If you want to stay alive, do not leave your room. I'll have someone deliver food to you daily. Aside from calls from me or Caden, do not contact anyone, or I won't be able to save you. Do you understand?" Kelly said over the phone to Clarissa.

"I understand... " Clarissa's voice trembled, the fear of barely surviving still fresh. Thanks to Charles, she had escaped this time, but what about next time? Beau and Patrick wouldn't let her go.

"Even a tiger won't eat its own cub, but your father is ruthless. He wants you dead without a trace." Kelly sneered.

Clarissa remained silent for a long time before speaking in a shaky voice. "He's a pure egotist. If I weren't useful to him, he wouldn't have cared about me at all these past years."

"Back when Tyson fell from the hospital, was that Beau's doing?" Kelly asked. Clarissa hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes."

"Do you have any evidence?" Kelly frowned.
