The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 438

It was because that was her last trace of dignity. Even though her pride had been shattered and left in pieces, she didn’t want it to be trampled on again. “Because the family I want is not someone like you. To me, you can be a creditor, a stranger, or a superior, but you can never be my family!”

The word “family” was special to her. It was something she had longed for since childhood.

“All I know now is that they have received money from someone to deal with Ms. Leighton. They were told to keep Ms. Leighton in the hospital for at least a while. However, they only contacted the person who paid them over the phone and the money was transferred directly to their accounts. They never met the person personally,” Carlos said, reporting the results of his investigation.
