Chapter 438: 438 An Aggrieved Woman

Wilson rushed out of the station so that reporters could see him and start asking him hundreds of questions. Although there were no speakers to reach everyone's ears, if he chooses a good media reporter, his work would be done.

With that thought in mind, he stepped out and saw the eagerness of the crowd. Getting off the stairs, he was about to speak, when someone called him out loud.

"Mr. Wilson."

Wilson turned around to see a group of cops rushing toward him. Unawarely his heart shuddered thinking of the possibility of being arrested in front of so many people.

Nevertheless, the cops quickly managed to make space for him to reach his car and rushed him as they repeated to the reporters, "Mr. Wilson will be attending the press conference  at Starlight."

Wilson was overwhelmed with the hurriedness and people shouting at them. He didn't realize when he sat in the car until a cop knocked on the window and instructed him.

Though his words didn't reach his ears, Wilson understood the actions, 'Drive.'

Wilson could feel his heart rumbling in his chest due to the massive attention he was receiving. He had experienced the same excitement and crowd when the first three movies he produced were blockbusters.

When his lips threatened him to smile recalling the fast, he found the press conference better than screaming at the crowd. He started the car, and slowly drove out of the crowd.

The cops watched some of the people taking their vehicle and leaving behind Wilson where the rest were eager for Janet to come out.

Janet Wilson.

Richard entered the interrogation room where his colleague was taking Janet's statement. Janet was pale as a sheet. There were cold beads of sweat rolling down her face and she wasn't able to breathe properly and was taking short breaths frequently. Her eyes were screaming in panic, her body was shaking like a withering leaf. Rubbing her nose with the tissue she was obediently responding to the questions.

His first thought was a chilly room without a heater must have affected Janet. After all, females tend to feel cold even with many layers of clothes.

Richard instructed the cop who was guarding the lobby, "Get a glass of warm water."

After instructing it, Richard frowned, wondering if Janet feared Alvin Matthews and was reluctant to speak in favor of him. As she has to choose her son or go against her husband's complaint.

Nevertheless, he hissed softly. What if Janet was acting there? Richard's mind was blown with several thoughts.

His eyes stopped at his colleague who seemed speechless. "How is it going?"

The cop took Richard to the corner of the room and reported in a low voice, "Mrs. Wilson is frightened to know it was Alvin Matthews's men who followed her till the farmhouse. She is shaking and her teeth are chattering." He gasped.

With complex thoughts in mind, Richard asked in suspicion, "He is her son." The situation was turning complex.

The cop nodded as Janet had agreed with it. He glanced at Janet whose rims of eyes were red as though she would burst into tears any moment. He sighed pitying the woman.

He continued to report, "Mrs. Wilson and Casper Matthews had signed an agreement that she will never publicly announce or acknowledge her son for his well-being.

Thus she refused Alvin's proposal yesterday and Alvin had threatened her that he would ruin her and her family."

Richard frowned hard. He realized he was biased from the beginning as Anya was on Alvin's side and Alvin had confessed his actions.

However, both didn't bother to ask if she was willing to accept Alvin as her son if the contract wasn't there.

Richard found Janet's side of the story more believable. So he sat down in front of Janet, gave her a glass of water, and even asked to arrange something warm to cover her. "Mrs. Wilson, why didn't you go to the farmhouse?" He asked very politely.

Janet sniffled hard as she rubbed the tissue by her nose. Her jaws slightly shook and started responding, "I-I was p-panicked y-yesterday. My husband asked me to go somewhere and relax. Alvin could find me if I go to my farmhouse. So we asked CEO Jordan for his farmhouse access." She spoke in an aggrieved voice that could make one believe her and be compassionate about her.

The duo continued to question Janet who responded to them. In the end, Janet's tears rolled down her cheeks. She sounded disturbed and upset when said, "I don't want all these. Please don't do anything to Alvin. I-I will take the case back."

A lady arrived shortly to console her while Richard sent Alvin back to the interrogation room. Richard reported everything to Warner who was also in disbelief.

"Where is Janet Wilson?" Warner asked as he hurriedly stood up.

Richard frowned without understanding Warner's reaction. "The lady cops will be sending her home."

Warner lost it, "Have you your mind?" He ran out of the office room and heard the loud commotion outside. He realized Janet was facing the crowd.

He looked around and didn't find Anya, Alvin, or Rob. "Where is Ms. Owen?"

Richard's face was dark wondering if Warner was going to take Alvin's side due to Anya. He responded monotonously, "She left after Wilson."

He followed Warner to the exit. Both saw that Janet was covered by all sides and she was being questioned and asked about her well-being. "Damn it."

"Deputy Warner, why are you trying to protect Alvin Matthews?" Richard finally voiced his thoughts.

Warner tried to hold his anger. Oddly Anya's words sounded in his mind, 'I trust in Deputy Warner and your team.' It felt like a taunt.

He uncontrollably screamed at Richard, "This woman was bloody acting in front of you fools." She got the Movie queen title for a reason.

Richard: "..."

He did consider the possibility but he didn't feel like Janet was acting. "H-how…"  How was Warner so sure that Janet was acting?

Warner ignored Richard and stormed inside. He instructed every one of the cops there, to go out and get Janet inside. Richard followed Warner into his office and the latter slammed a file in front of him.

When Warner read Krystle and Linus, the housekeeper and butler's statements, they got to know Bernard was in the situation. Thus he sent a cop to get his statement. There they learned about the true faces of Janet and Alvin.

Krystle might lie, butler and housekeeper could lie. Why would Linus, or Bernard lie?

"Are you saying all these people are lying but that actress?" Warner sat down with a throbbing headache, "Bring that artist manager and the CEO." He ordered Richard.

Then he muttered through his teeth, "Not just a husband, but this woman will stand behind the bars tonight." He was certain the couple put on the wonderful play.

….

Unaware of the developments, Wilson faced the large crowd in a temperature-controlled hall while Janet reluctantly put on the drama due to her husband.

Meanwhile, Alvin had crossed his leg over another and leaned to a comfortable position on the uncomfortable chair. Closing his eyes, his lips arced to tempting smirk, recalling how his wife had domineering silenced the crowd when she stepped out of the station. "Wild Cat."

Hey guys,

My brother's wedding is in this week and there are many events to attend. I thought I could manage to ink a chapter in the morning or night, whenever I get time. Well, I was wrong.

The last event is on Sunday so I will be back on Monday.

I'm so sorry for taking so many breaks.

Much Love,

Munchkin
