Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby (Charlotte and Zachary)

Chapter 2246

Hazel might hate Francesca, but she was terrified by how the situation had escalated. She couldn't

even utter a word.

Harrier stood behind the crowd and watched silently.

The team stood dozens of meters away as they dared not come any closer. Each of them pointed a

gun at the beasts warily, not daring to let their guards down.

Despite that, they were still extremely uneasy, afraid that the beasts would rush over to rip them into

shreds.

In the end, someone from the military spoke. “Ms. Felch, you are under suspicion of being involved in a

murder case. Please come with us to assist in the investigation.”

“Be clear. What murder case do you suspect I'm involved in?” Francesca demanded haughtily.

“Gerard Atkinson died from poison after seeing you. According to our investigation, you used a Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

venomous snake to attack him, so—”

“Please mind your words,” Francesca interjected icily. “The venomous snake had indeed flown from my

hands to his neck, but I summoned it back before it could bite him. Gerard's death has nothing to do

with me.”

“How can we know if you're telling the truth?” Hazel roared angrily. “My father kept holding his neck

back then. He also said his neck felt cold and numb. It must be your venomous snake that bit him!

Nothing happened on our way back, and the poison acted up when we got home, killing him in the

process. Who else could it be? It must be you!”

“Even though we've met up, that doesn't mean I killed him. If you die later, is it my fault, too?”

Francesca retorted.

“Hey!” Hazel's face paled in fury.

Right then, William gave Monica a silent gesture. The woman immediately shoved Sloan, hinting at him

to speak up.

Regaining his senses, Sloan promptly explained, “Ms. Atkinson, I think you've gotten it wrong. The

green snake belongs to Mr. Lindberg. It has been bathed in poison since its birth, so its venom is

extremely fatal. If it had bitten Mr. Atkinson, he would've died on the spot. There was no way he'd die at

home.”

“Hear that?” Hazel grew increasingly emotional. “Francesca knew that snake was venomous but

allowed it to bite my father! She wanted to kill my father!”

“No, I mean—”

“Francesca, I must avenge my father! How could you do that to him?”

Hazel grabbed a gun and aimed it at Francesca.

Suddenly, one of the tigers let out a guttural roar at her. Frightened, Hazel nearly collapsed to the

ground.

“Let me repeat myself. I didn't kill your father.” Francesca shot her a frosty look before turning to the

police. “You must've examined the body, right? What did the forensic pathologist say?”

“According to the forensic pathologist, Mr. Atkinson died from snake venom. Ms. Felch, all evidence

points to you, so please follow us back to assist in the investigation,” the highest-ranking police officer

replied.

“Snake venom, huh?” Francesca sneered. “So it's indeed a pre-arranged trap.”

“What do you mean?” Hazel demanded instinctively.

“You're only needed to assist in the investigation. Please cooperate.” The police officer gestured for

Francesca to leave with them.

Sloan and the rest were stunned to hear that. The president gave them the orders? No wonder they are

this insistent.

Francesca's lips curled. It looks like Layla and William's prediction was right. Read at NovelDrama.Org

With that said, she waved her hands, and the beasts roared out loud in unison.

The beasts' roars were so deafening that the rest took a step back as their faces turned pale in horror.
