The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 513 Unending Turmoil

Archibald was absolutely fuming.

"Shut up, Sophia! When we get to the Emerald City police station with all the evidence, the surveillance footage, and the witnesses, let's see how you keep playing innocent!" Hearing Archibald's words, Sophia changed her expression in an instant.

Dean looked utterly incredulous.

"What did you just say?" Dean stared at Archibald, a mix of anger and disappointment flashing in his eyes, his voice trembling. "Archibald, what do you mean by that? Are you really gonna team up with them against me?"

Archibald's silence was the best answer.

Honestly, Sophia hadn't expected Archibald to be this ruthless, willing to do anything to get Dean thrown into jail.

What good would this do him?

Seeing Sophia and Dean standing there, pale and stunned, Archibald decided to stop beating around the bush. He turned directly to Dean.

"Take this time in short-term detention to reflect on your recent behavior. It's only a few months; you'll be out soon enough."

Dean felt like he barely recognized Archibald anymore.

This was his own brother!

In an instant, Dean's eyes burned with fury. He clenched his fists, his voice icy.

"A few months? Just for your reputation, your future, and a pregnant married woman, you're gonna send me to jail! Archibald, you're ruthless. I'll fight you to the end!" The mention of the pregnant woman clearly struck a nerve with Archibald.

With that, the brothers were at each other's throats.

Sophia tried to escape in the chaos, but it was too late.

Archibald had anticipated Dean showing up on their parents' death anniversary, so he had already arranged for the Emerald City and Everglade City police to be nearby. Two days later

Sophia and Dean were officially taken to the Emerald City police station.

They returned to this place, but they couldn't walk out freely anymore.

Faced with irrefutable evidence and witnesses, and seeing Mark's sullen face in the same cell, Sophia felt a wave of despair.
