The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 551 Solving the Case

"Since you're so into setting fires, I'll let you burn to your heart's content." Randall lugged the gas can, twisted off the cap, and got ready to douse the place around Abby and light it up. Abby caught a whiff of the strong smell, knowing it was the real deal.

"Molly, this is murder, you know that?" she screamed, her voice cracking with fear.

Molly squatted down, grinning wickedly at the tied-up Abby. "Isn't this your favorite game? Arson, burning yourself? I'm just helping you keep playing."

Abby watched Randall pouring gas nearby, her face going ghostly pale.

Vera took the chance to get out of the car with Theodore. She stood in front of Abby and demanded, "Why frame Molly? How did the fire start? Spill the beans, and maybe we'll let you live." Abby looked at Vera, who had just shown up and beat her so bad she couldn't fight back. She thought she recognized Vera. "Who are you?"

"Patrick's wife," Vera replied.

Abby's eyes went wide with terror.

Vera gently held Theodore and said, "I'm a mom now, not as ruthless as before. So I'm giving you a chance. Answer honestly, no funny business. There's no cameras here, no witnesses. If you die today, the cops won't have any proof to nab us, just like your arson case, no evidence."

Abby looked at Vera, sweating despite the cold winter air. Molly got impatient, "Vera, take Theodore over there. if I don't burn her to death, I'll at least burn her badly."

Vera said again, "Think it over. The three of us can do anything."

Abby hesitated, stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Randall pulled out a lighter, ready to light it when Abby quickly blurted, "I did it to kick Molly out of the Chase family."

"She isn't even a real Chase, yet she lives there and everyone loves her. What's so great about her? She can't do anything, has a bad temper, why do Ellie and Timothy like her, and why does Sebastian spoil her so much? Compared to me, she's nothing," Abby said.

Molly glared coldly at the spiteful Abby.
