Chapter 1199 One Step Ahead
Madison was crying uncontrollably, "Alexander, I'm sorry, I didn't know Emily was so vicious. I thought she just had a sharp tongue, I didn't realize her heart was so evil!"
Alexander's trembling hand picked up the phone and played the recording again, listening to the conversation between Emily and Madison over and over.
Madison secretly observed Alexander's expression.
In the recording, Madison had edited out the later parts, leaving only the two segments between her and Emily, making it sound like it was entirely Emily's doing, with no involvement from Madison.
Madison knew that once this came out, people would suspect her, but if she didn't push Emily out, eventually both of them would be exposed. Now she had to act first and make Emily the scapegoat.
Alexander turned his head to look at Madison. After a long time, he slowly spoke, "When did you find out?"
Madison wiped the tears from her face, "A while ago, Emily was arrested by the police. I went to the station to bail her out. She was arrested for participating in an orgy. You can check, there's a record."
Madison continued, "At that time, Emily didn't care at all. She said it was no big deal, it wasn't like she got caught for murder. Hearing that, I realized she might have killed someone. But she didn't dare to tell me easily. Over the next period, I kept trying to get her to talk, and finally tonight, I got her to admit it."
In the recording on the phone, Emily had completely confessed to killing Scarlett.
Alexander clenched the phone, then his fist slammed hard on the steering wheel.
Madison was startled, "Alexander, I'm sorry, I really didn't know Emily was this vicious. I shouldn't have seen her. If I had known she was this kind of person, I would never have met her. I'm sorry, Alexander, I'm sorry."
"Shut up!" Alexander yelled at her.
Although it was Emily who did it, Madison was Emily's cousin. If Emily hadn't come here, none of this would have happened.
Alexander transferred the recording from the phone to his own, then threw the phone at Madison, "Get out, I don't want to see you!"
Madison's heart trembled. She grabbed the phone and got out of the car, crying.
In the middle of the night, Emily was sleeping soundly.
Suddenly, her blanket was yanked off.
Then, a rough force pulled her off the bed.
Emily screamed in fright.
A large hand covered her mouth, then a black cloth was put over her head. She felt a sharp pain at the back of her head and passed out.
A basin of cold water was poured directly over Emily's head. She opened her eyes abruptly and found herself locked in a small dark room.
Several men stood in front of her, all with cold, expressionless faces.
Then, another tall figure suddenly appeared in front of Emily.
Emily was shocked to see the man in front of her, "It's you."
She confirmed she wasn't dreaming and looked around, "Why? Why am I here?"
"You killed my grandmother." Alexander stepped forward, looking down at her with icy eyes filled with intense murderous intent.
Emily's mind buzzed, almost exploding, "What are you talking about? You can't slander me. Where's Madison? Where is Madison?"
Alexander stepped forward, took out his phone, and played the recording next to Emily's ear.
