Chapter 43 - Squeezed to Death
Chapter 43 Squeezed to Death
Cole had two phone recordings, a surveillance camera video, and a stack of photos of Flint Smith for comparison.
Thus, the “panicking” Cole went to the police with the evidence.
Extortion, disruption of public order, harassment, and so on…
They were all possibilities.
At the worst, they would be enough for Flint to sit for more than ten days before coming out.
After all, Flint had really planned to kill Cole.
When the police officers heard of Flint’s death threat, they were very sympathetic to Cole. They submitted the report without hesitation and told Cole not to worry; they had no problem taking responsibility for his safety.
After they sent Cole home, the notice came.
Flint Smith had entered the police station!
***
At eleven in the night…
Susan Collins frantically called Cole.
However, Cole blocked all the numbers the call came from.
How many phone numbers could a middle-aged woman have?
After he blocked one or two numbers, the house returned to silence.
Having dealt with Flint, Cole slept well.

Ferris Hotel…
In the most luxurious presidential suite.
The sound of water running filled the bathroom.
Clearly, someone was bathing there.
Jane Smith, covered in a white bathrobe, stood in front of the glass floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the night view of the sea. Her expression was calm, containing neither sadness nor joy.
The phone in her hand kept ringing.
“You have to save him.
“Mom is begging you.
“Also, you have to kill that Cole. Otherwise, otherwise… he will definitely pester you and threaten you to get money from Charles Yeager.”
Susan desperately begged her.
After her son had been taken by the police, Susan had completely lost her backbone.
The only person she could place her hopes on was Jane.
If even Jane did not help her, she would be completely cornered.
Hearing Susan crying in despair, Jane sneered. “Wasn’t he asking for it?”
“How can you say that he asked for it? How could he ask for it? It’s all because of that Cole.” Susan cried.
Jane laughed even harder. “If he weren’t stupid and rash, how could Cole have caught him?”
“Yes, but he’s still a child. Isn’t it normal for him not to understand these things? We have to take care of him more!”
Susan did not like to hear Jane scold Flint, but to win Jane over, she could only agree with her verbally.
Jane sneered. “Child? How could a child commit so many sins?”
Susan replied, “Jane, don’t say that. Even if you don’t like Mom, you have to like Flint. He’s your brother after all. You have to save him.”

“No way!”
Jane’s eyes were cold.
After what Flint and Susan had done to her, it was impossible for her to forgive them.
If she had not been lucky enough to catch Charles Yeager’s eye, she would probably be lying on a street now.
“You…”
When Susan heard that Jane had completely rejected her, she froze. Then, she changed from crying to cursing. “You jinx, it’s all your fault. It’s all your fault for finding such a boyfriend and causing chaos in our family.
“Now that you have implicated your brother, you actually won’t even help him once!
“You unfilial daughter!
“Do you want the Smiths to have no descendants!
Susan went from crying to cursing.
When she realized that Jane had no intention of agreeing with her, she had collapsed.
Jane looked pleased.
This was what she liked to see the most.
To see them collapse!
Unfortunately, she did not see Flint kneeling in front of her and begging for mercy.
Just then…
The sound of water in the bathroom stopped.
Jane’s heart skipped a beat.
When Charles Yeager pushed open the bathroom door, Jane’s expression suddenly turned from one of joy to that of sorrow. She cried as if she was complaining, “Mom, stop crying. Don’t worry! Even if I’m useless, I can’t just sit back and do nothing about my brother’s matter. Let him rest at home. If he finds trouble with you, I’ll definitely try my best to solve it.”
Stunned, Susan stopped cursing her. “Re-really?”
“Don’t be angry and harm your body. If there’s any difficulty, let me handle it.”
Jane ignored Susan and continued talking.
She looked pitiful at this moment.
Like she was about to cry!
Susan understood something. “You! Are you still using your mother?!”
Jane sounded as if she were weeping her grief.
However, this excuse was clearly not to save Flint, but to take revenge on Cole!
It made Susan furious.
Just then…
Charles Yeager, who was wearing a white bathrobe, walked over to Jane. “What’s wrong, baby?”
Silence!
Jane acted like she had been discovered and hurriedly hung up the phone in a panic. “No, I’m fine!”
“If you’ve encountered any difficulties, you can tell me.”
Charles hugged Jane’s slender waist from behind and leaned against her neck.
“I… I’m fine. I don’t want to trouble you.” Jane gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with tears.
Charles pulled her over and faced her. “You’re my girlfriend now. If there’s anything you want to tell me, you have to tell me. Otherwise, wouldn’t I be neglecting my duty as a boyfriend?”
Charles’s eyes were filled with love.
Coupled with his appearance.
It looked moving!
Jane almost believed him.
However, she despised him in her heart. He was really just sweet-talking to play with women.
Nevertheless, since she wanted to use Charles Yeager to deal with Cole, she naturally would not expose Charles.
She only bit her lip and trembled. “After my ex-boyfriend broke up with me, he kept pestering me. Some time ago, he even extorted ten thousand dollars from me. Today, he went to harass my brother and my mother.”
“That’s it?”
Charles raised his eyebrows slightly. “Who is this person?”
“He… he’s just an unemployed person.”
Jane cried and sobbed. She sounded regretful and sad. “He was very motivated in university, but I don’t know what happened during the years I was studying for my master’s degree. He changed completely. I tried to persuade him to work hard a few times, but he ignored me.
“I broke up with him because I couldn’t stand his laziness.
“But I didn’t expect that…”
Jane started crying completely.
Her tears came easily!
“Okay, okay, don’t cry.” Charles hugged Jane and let her tears soak his bathrobe. “I’ll help you resolve this matter.”
“No, no.” Jane hurriedly rejected him. “Mr. Yeager, you’ve already treated me well. I can’t trouble you anymore.”
“What’s wrong with that?”
Charles Yeager sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. “Crushing an unemployed person is not much harder than crushing an ant.”
“This…”
Jane seemed to want to reject Charles, but her eyes actually flashed with joy.
“It’s okay. Leave it to me.”
Charles hugged Jane, and his hands started to restlessly move. “We can’t waste a moment of our night.”
Jane whimpered and collapsed into Charles’ arms…
There were stars outside the window.
