The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 107

Vincent bolted upright from his hospital bed, a sense of urgency propelling him.

“Officer, that graveyard is ours, fair and square. It’s my mother’s final resting place, and every neighbor around here can vouch for that!”

The officer pulled out some official documents. “Legally, the rights to that plot belong to Martin. It’s his private property, and you’re suspected of illegally trespassing.”

Frantically. Vincent grabbed the documents from the officer’s hand, only to realize that not just the graveyard, but the entire hillside belonged to Martin! They had been trespassing the moment they set foot on that hill.

Vincent turned to Zachary, who was equally stunned. “So, you’re telling me you didn’t buy the land?”

Zachary erupted into a tirade. “Damn it, why the hell would I want anything to do with your family’s graveyard?”

“That doesn’t add up. Then why would you suddenly show up at my mom’s grave?”

“How should I know! Officer, I want to file a report too. I was visiting my own family’s graves back home, and the next thing I know, I wake up in the Lambert family’s plot, nearly buried alive in a coffin!”

The officer looked at Zachary as if he were looking at an idiot. “Our investigation reveals that you drove here to Linefort City overnight and ended up in Martin’s plot.”

Did Zachary really think they were fools? They had checked the surveillance footage in advance, and it clearly showed Zachary sneaking from his family’s graveyard to Linefort City.

Zachary was dumbstruck!

How could he have driven to Linefort City himself? He didn’t remember a thing!

Vincent, upon hearing this, wished he could leap up and slap Zachary,

“I knew it! You’ve always been after my family’s land!”

Vincent’s mind raced. Unwilling to give up, he turned to the officer. “Do you have any solid evidence of us breaking in? If not, even if you take us in, the worst we’d get is a fine and then be sent on our way.”

“Two sets of ashes were found in the grave, belonging to your wife Belinda’s grandparents. We’ve also got footage of you entering and exiting the plot, so you’re coming with us.”

Vincent was dumbfounded!

There were cameras around the graveyard besides the patrol guards?
