Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Evil Cliff

Callum was actually quite tired of interfering in his friend’s romantic affairs. Even though his own problems weren’t resolved, he now had to help a couple of friends who were fighting over a misunderstanding. Callum and Edith exchanged confused glances; it could be concluded that this wasn’t James’ fault. However, those who sought James’ help were carrying out this act of revenge. Now, James and Arabella’s romantic problems are only getting more complicated because of their selfishness.

"James, this isn’t really your fault. Maybe you could invite Arabella to meet me, since this was all Callum and I’s idea."

James shook his head slowly. "The point is, Arabella will definitely blame me because I was directly involved in getting her into your trap."

Callum laughed awkwardly, patting his friend’s shoulder. "This is the first time I’ve seen you this upset over a woman."

"You could say I still care about her now. I was really angry with her before because she ruined your relationship and also because she dumped me. But, in a way, she did it because circumstances forced her to." He lowered his head in resignation. "If only I could explain it to her again and she would listen to me, I wouldn’t have to be so anxious."

"Do I need to talk to Arabella alone so she understands how you feel? If we’re talking to each other, she’ll definitely listen."

"Edith is right. You don’t need to worry anymore. Arabella definitely won’t hate you because she knew what she did was wrong."

James raised his head and looked at his two friends, who looked relaxed. "I’m actually more worried about you guys at a time like this. I got some evidence from Cliff’s safe."

James took out the voice recorder he’d been keeping since last night. He then showed Callum several documents detailing Cliff’s bribery of several prominent hospitals to falsify DNA test results. What made Callum even more curious was the content of the voice recording, which James had gone to the trouble of bringing.

"What does the recording say?"

"In conclusion, Yvette was indeed the mastermind behind the accident and ordered Kevin and Diana to erase all traces of the recording."

Without further ado, Callum immediately played the recording and listened to it with his fiancée. His brow furrowed even more as he heard his father clearly state that he didn’t want Edith to survive the accident. That was what made his blood pressure rise even more. His right hand slammed the table hard as he groaned.

"This can’t be allowed! I have to hand this evidence over to the police station!"

"Callum, you better calm down first!"

"How can I be calm, Edith? Your family clearly doesn’t want you to survive, making my life even more miserable!"

James exhaled heavily. "Actually, Arabella and I were shocked to hear this audio recording. But it’s usually difficult for the police to use as evidence because the recording was obtained illegally."

"So what should we do now?" Callum asked firmly.

"The only way is for you to get the evidence directly from your father. For now, we can arrest Cliff because he’s bribed various hospitals and companies to get everyone on his side."

Callum immediately hugged his fiancée’s slender body tightly. "I won’t let anyone touch Edith. Why should Edith be dragged into my problems?"

Edith looked at her fiancé with pity. She was afraid he would do something stupid to protect her. She held his hand tightly, as if to prove that she would never let him go again.

"Callum, Yvette was actually targeting me from the start. So this isn’t entirely your fault."

"But, if my family hadn’t gotten involved in this problem, this case would have been resolved much faster."

"Now we’re just a little bit closer to catching all those criminals. I also still want to trap Yvette because she’s been holding a grudge against me all this time."

"One thing’s for sure, from now on, I have to be nicer to my father so I can get evidence. After I win him over in the fraud case, I can’t wait to put him and his family in jail."

On the other hand, Arabella was still feeling incredibly anxious, having never expected that last night’s question would actually drive her relationship with James even further apart. Now she had to continue her charade, having already won Cliff’s heart. Arabella was so fed up with dating Cliff every day that she wanted to find a way to break up their relationship.

Arabella felt incredibly awkward entering an empty outdoor restaurant at night. It was unusual for Cliff to vacate a restaurant just for their date. He had always been reluctant to vacate the restaurant, considering it excessive. Arabella could only comply with Cliff’s request to have a romantic dinner at this unassuming restaurant.

Arabella swallowed nervously as she watched Cliff arrogantly slice his steak. She had a bad feeling about this situation. Had her mission yesterday been discovered?

"Arabella, what were you doing last night while I was busy in a meeting at the office?"

"I rested all night in my apartment."

Cliff slammed his fork and knife down as he showed her the photos of Arabella and James together in the apartment. "Could it be that you slept with your ex-boyfriend?!" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Arabella was relieved that Cliff hadn’t discovered her secret mission. However, she began to fear that Cliff had actually been stalking her all night like a stalker. She stared nervously at the photo and fixed Cliff with a sharp gaze to show that she wasn’t afraid of the threats.

"Why are you secretly stalking me?"

"Because I already know you just want to take advantage of me all of a sudden! I know you still like that jerk!"

"Watch your words, Cliff! James is not a jerk!"

Cliff slammed the table roughly as he rose from his chair and grabbed Arabella’s hair without hesitation. "I knew from the start you were a bitch. I shouldn’t have let you live."

Arabella smiled sarcastically as she slapped Cliff’s hand away and pushed him away with all her might. "You’re the jerk! I don’t want to continue our relationship anymore."

When Arabella wanted to go down the stairs, Cliff suddenly pushed her body."
