Chapter 397 Go tell him, you are going to marry me.
Looking at him, I controlled my emotions, my voice hoarse as I asked, “How could you have these things?”
With a face full of amusement, he looked at me and raised an eyebrow, saying, “Guess what, how about it?”
“Did you start planning all this after Henry got out of jail?” Thinking back to that day at the abandoned factory, I looked at him suspiciously, “You didn’t just happen to be at the factory that day, you were waiting there, the driver took the opportunity to get to know me? You saved me, helped me hide Henry’s b*dy, and even cleared my name for murder, was all this premeditated?”
Recalling that Captain Lucas had mentioned to me before, after Ashley was imprisoned, a crew-cut man had visited her. Afterwards, she suddenly accused me of murder and hiding the b*dy. I looked at him, my voice trembling, “From beginning to end, was this all your scheme?”
Looking at my terrified expression, he curled his l*ps in amusement at my reaction, saying to me, “Only now you’re reacting, don’t you think it’s too late?”
For a moment, I felt as if all my strength had been drained, slumped on the ground. It was me, I had let the wolf into the house. I thought he was just a friend I had made by chance, so I had never been on guard against him.
Looking at him, I felt incredibly stupid for a moment. I took a deep breath and said, “So, accompanying me to Draeview to save my mother was a lie, you were actually investigating the truth of the accident that year?”

He raised his eyebrows without a word, which was considered as his tacit agreement.
In an instant, I was enveloped by a sense of helplessness. I took a breath, looking at him, my voice hoarse to the point of despair, “So, Ashley and Gianna being bullied in prison, Jacob’s death, all of this, was it all done by you to smear Walter?”
He pursed his l*ps, which was also his way of agreeing.
“What about Ms. Merchant?” My voice was hoarse, a sharp pain clutching at my heart, my throat wrapped in a taste of blood. “Did you kill her too?”
He looked at me, as if watching my breakdown, and as if looking at something I couldn’t understand. After a long while, he said, “These. people all deserve it.”
“You’re full of crap!” I was somewhat falling apart, “What do you mean they deserved it? They have laws and police for their mistakes, who are you to punish them? What did Ms. Merchant do wrong? What did Captain Lucas do wrong? Ezra, you’re nothing short of a devil.”
He squinted at me, his eyes filled with disappointment and helplessness as he watched my hysterics. “Tabatha, you really are something. Even at a time like this, you still have the energy to blame me for people you don’t even want to deal with. Have you forgotten how you were framed by those two bitches, Ashley and Gianna? Have you forgotten how you almost died at their hands? Have you forgotten how you were tortured by Hilda at the police station, or how Jacob stabbed you in the back? They’re just a bunch of ants, yet you’re standing up for them. Ridiculous!”
My heart ached terribly, these people were wrong, they truly deserved it, “What about Captain Lucas? What did he do wrong? Why did you have to kill him?”

Looking at me, he sneered, his face full of mockery. “What? Are you planning to sit here high and mighty to judge me?” He crouched down close to me, lowering his voice, and mocked, “Are you worthy?”
Yeah, it’s already this late, is there any point in asking why?
I suddenly burst out laughing, laughing at my own ridiculousness, laughing at my own stupidity, laughing at my own foolishness.
Looking at him, I despaired, turning away from the contract and said, “After all that, you show me these things, what do you want to do?”
It seemed that we were getting to the point. He casually picked up a contract, glanced at it, and looked at me, saying, “Indeed, you’re right. Walter is capable of trapping me in River City. But tell me, what would happen to him and the Hinton family if I were to spread this information?”
From the moment he showed me these things, I knew his purpose was definitely not as simple as letting me tear off his true face. Hearing his words, I was not panicked. I looked at him coldly and said, “If you don’t intend to do so, there’s no need to scare me by saying it, Ezra, you’re making me laugh.”
He slightly furrowed his brows, but only for a moment, then he suddenly burst into laughter, saying, “It seems you’re not entirely brainless after all. Fine, since you’ve said so, I won’t scare you anymore. But Tabatha, if you don’t behave and cause Walter to be utterly disgraced, it’s not impossible.”
Tired of his incessant threatening words, I spoke up, “What do you want me to do?”
If he had wanted to destroy Walter, he would have started as soon as he got these things. He wouldn’t have bothered to come here and talk so much to me. Therefore, his coming here must be to use these things
