Chapter 41 A Heart of a Wicked Witch
Carlos thought that he had heard the man wrong, so he asked
again, “Who’s in trouble?”
“Someone exposed a lot of matters about Arlan on the Internet, committing crimes, murder, arson, and
a lot of things. Now that the police are arresting him.” The person who came in asked in horror, “Carlos, C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
what should we do? Would Arlan reveal…”
Before the man could finish speaking, Carlos kicked him.
Only then did the man come to his senses that there were still people from the head office in the room.
He immediately shut up.
“Mr. Butler, that’s enough,” Athena said.
She was not in the mood to watch those people continue to
act.
Carlos turned his head to look at Athena and wondered, “How could it be that Arlan’s affairs are
exposed at this point? Could
“Miss Newton, is this your arrangement as well?” Carlos asked.
Athena shrugged slightly. “Who knows? It may be that karma will never be late, and the wicked will take
their own course. I wonder if the police have caught him or not. I really want to be verified with Arlan for
what you just said.”
Carlos stood there without moving.
It was in the autumn, but his forehead had already broken out in a sweat.
He knew very well that if Arlan were caught, he couldn’t get away either.
He thought, “This vicious woman must have discovered everything long ago and silently compiled a big
net. When we are still dreaming of extorting hundreds of millions of dollars without any realization, she
has quietly set up a trap that leaves no room for us. It’s a deadly trap. The things that Arlan committed
are made public on the Internet. No matter how strong his relationship is, he can’t escape the death
penalty. If to take Arlan as a reference, I wouldn’t end well either. But…”
Carlos gritted his teeth and said, “Miss Newton, my son is still young. He is innocent. Let my son go,
and I will turn myself in.”
‘Mr. Butler, don’t worry. Let’s talk slowly.” Athena gestured for him to sit down.
Carlos’ legs seemed to be filled with lead and thought, “I have said that I would turn myself in. What
else does she want?”
However, since she got his son, he had no choice but to obey her words.
After sitting down, Athena took out a blank notebook and a pen from her laptop bag and pushed them
to Carlos.
She said gently, “When I was young, my grandfather taught me that crooks don’t appear alone. I don’t
want to waste time investigating. So, Mr. Butler, please write down those crooks. one by one.”
Carlos was stunned.
“Miss Newton, I only know about my own affairs…”
Before he could finish speaking, Athena slammed the pen before him without speaking a word.
Yet, Carlos still felt a full sense of threat and oppression.
“Mr. Hale, do you have a seven or eight-year-old child in your family?” Athena turned sideways, and
suddenly started chatting with Gideon.
was staring at her, and now that she suddenly turned and looked at him, his heart suddenly raced.
He coughed lightly to hide his panic, and then he answered casually, as usual, “I have two nephews
who are about the same age.”
“Then, do you know that such a small child is very fragile? If you are not careful, the child can easily
choke to death when he eats or drinks.” She said.
“Miss Newton!” Carlos exclaimed.
Athena looked back at him again in a puzzle. “What’s the matter? I’m just chatting with Mr. Hale. You
think about it carefully, Mr. Butler. Don’t bother about us.”
Carlos completely let go of all his pretending acts and C, “I can’t tell, you’re so good-looking, yet you
have a heart of a wicked witch! Athena, I will never let you go if you dare to do anything to my son!”
Athena leaned on the back of the chair and looked at him quietly without saying anything.
