Chapter 520: His Responsibility...
Chapter 520: His Responsibility...
Gracy smirked in response to the assurance the man gave her.
" I would've loved to see that woman suffer more if possible but I'm in a hurry since everything is messed up right now. The only goal I have is to kill her and see her dead before I flee!" she grunted.
Her life was already a mess and there was no turning back for her. Bill would save himself by using her but she would not let that happen. She had to eliminate Lana before fleeing the country because that was the only thing that would give her peace!
The man she hired was a professional hitman that she got to know being involved in the underworld with Bill. "Leave now and make sure there will be no mistake tomorrow while abducting that b*tch!"
The man moved to leave with the bag of cash. He opened the car door as soon as Gracy dismissed him but he stayed there frozen, half his body out of the door already.
"Hey! Why are you standing there like a statue?! Leave now and close the door," Gracy commanded because she wanted to leave the place immediately.
She was startled when the door on her side was suddenly opened and a man in a military uniform leaned down to her and said, "Miss Gracy Go you are under arrest for the kidnapping and murder of Mrs. Ana Huang. Please step out of the vehicle."
Gracy's grip on the steering wheel tightened. She thought of stepping on the gas and driving out of there quickly to escape but soon realized that all the exits were blocked by military police cars.
"What is this? Where's your arrest warrant? Why would you arrest me on baseless grounds!!!" she shouted and refused to go out of her seat.
With trembling hands, she started calling her lawyers but none of them answered. The last person she called was Kyle, who was the only one who answered.
"If you refuse to cooperate with us then you leave us with no other choice but to drag you out of the vehicle. So please step out of the vehicle ma'am," the military police informed.
"No! I will sue you all for this! Get out of my way! I'm not a criminal for you to arrest me!!!" Gracy yelled freaking out. The military police tried to talk to her, convincing her to politely step out of the car but she was not listening to them.
"Drag her out." Gracy heard a woman's voice. Before she could even open her mouth to complain the car door was forcefully opened and she was dragged out forcefully by her wrist.
Her arms were locked behind her back and she felt a handcuff on her wrist while hearing the military police said, "Ms. Gracy Go, you are under arrest for kidnapping and murder of Mrs. Ana Huang. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say may or will be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to consult an attorney before speaking to the police and to have an attorney present during questioning now or in the future."
The color on Gracy's face faded. She was struggling, refusing to be dragged inside the military police van. She saw the man she hired being handcuffed and dragged inside the car as well. Her face paled even more when her car was being inspected and her fake identifications were confiscated.
She was led inside the vehicle but before going inside she saw the face of the woman she hated the most… 'Lana,' she uttered helplessly.
"How?" she mumbled as she was dragged inside the car.
Lana and Liam who were not far from the site where Gracy was arrested, heaved a long deep sigh of relief. Liam pulled her into his embrace and kissed her head as he whispered, "It's all over now. You don't have to worry about anything. I will handle those two in the courtroom and make sure they suffer for what they've done."
They had everything they needed… It was a blessing for them that Gracy did her dealings inside her car just as Lana expected. This gave them solid evidence about the kidnapping and killing of her mother, making everything easier and to their advantage.
This will be an open and shut case. They would begin and end the trial swiftly involving the media so that the people would also know of?Bill Grey's crimes coming to light… Giving courage and hope to other victims of Bill Grey to come forward.
The couple was about to leave when Lana halted because she saw a familiar person talking to the military police then approached Drey.
"Isn't that Kyle?" Lana wondered and instantly walked closer to make sure it was indeed Kyle while Liam just followed her from behind.
"Kyle?" Lana called out.
Kyle turned around and gulped.
"What are you doing here?" Lana asked.
Drey who was talking with Kyle answered, "He's Gracy's lawyer Lana. He wanted to know the exact situation here and the reason for Gracy's arrest."
"What?!" Lana shouted in shock.
"What is going on Kyle? Why would you defend that murderer?!" Lana yelled at him.
Kyle felt a lump in his throat.
"I'm sorry Lana. I will explain everything to you and Liam later. But right now I'm here as Gracy's friend and representative…." Kyle spoke nervously.
"Friend!?" Lana hollered.
Kyle looked at Liam asking for his help in getting Lana out of here so Liam pulled Lana and whispered, "Let's get out here Lana. Reporters will be coming soon and it will not be good if you are here at the site. Let's just wait for Kyle to contact us and explain everything. I'm sure he had a good reason for all of it…"
"No Liam…. It's very clear. He said Gracy is his friend…" Lana breathed as she felt like she was betrayed, wondering why Kyle was involved in this and to what extent.
"You better explain yourself well Kyle…" Drey commented. He knew Kyle was Lana's paralegal before. He too was shocked to see Kyle here today and asked too many things.
"I will Drey, but trust me when I say this… I don't have anything against Lana nor will do her any harm. I'm just here to represent a friend who now has nothing… Gracy treated me well before and this is the only thing I can do for her because everyone else refused to help her." Kyle commented with a heavy heart.
He felt like he had a thorn in his heart but he had to do this and be with Gracy and Bill Grey until the end. He felt that it was his responsibility...
