Chapter 1428: Chapter 1428: I Wouldn’t Even Want You as Jocelyn’s Burial Companion

Ian Shelby didn’t hold back at all; Vera Ford was knocked to the ground by him, her pain piercing, and soon she had no strength left to resist.

At that moment, a helicopter circled overhead, making a booming sound.

Except for Ian Shelby, who was lost in his rage, everyone else looked up, watching as the helicopter flew lower and lower, soon landing.

The rain started pouring down heavily, growing more and more intense, washing the ground...

"Die! Vera Ford! You devil! No! You’re worse than a devil!" Ian Shelby grabbed her by the collar, punching her in the face relentlessly!

Each punch was harder than the last!

Blood began to flow from Vera Ford’s mouth, and two of her teeth were knocked out. She started experiencing ringing in her ears, feeling like she was going to die, but she was too weak to even call for help...

The eyes of two police officers shifted from the helicopter back to Ian Shelby and Vera Ford as they suddenly realized the severity of the situation and sprinted towards them!

"Stop it, Dr. Shelby! Someone will die at this rate!"

"Dr. Shelby! Let go!!"

"Dr. Shelby! That’s enough!"

"Ah—!" Ian Shelby roared, continuing to strike Vera Ford with insane fervor, "You’d dirty Jocelyn’s grave! You crazy woman! You should’ve died long ago!!"

Five meters away, several bodyguards opened large black umbrellas as Justin Kingston, Mia Lane, and Finn Morgan stepped down, witnessing the scene—

Trevor’s subordinate quickly came to report, "Hello, CEO Kingston, hello, Miss Stella, hello, Special Assistant Morgan. It was this woman who pushed Miss Morgan into the river; she admitted it herself verbally. The search and rescue team has been working all night but still hasn’t found her."

Justin Kingston’s gaze darkened, his handsome face becoming stern and cold as he spoke to the rescue team captain behind him, "You go help."

"Yes!" The captain gestured, and a line of people followed him, running towards the riverbank!

In the pouring rain, two police officers forcibly pulled the crazed Ian Shelby away, "Dr. Shelby! Someone will die! Wake up! Let go!"

"Dr. Shelby! You can vent, but don’t beat someone to death! You will also face legal responsibility!"

But Ian Shelby had lost his mind!

The only thought in his mind was to avenge Jocelyn!

Two officers held onto Ian Shelby, while another two lifted the woman from the blood-soaked ground.

Vera Ford was drenched, her body limp, as if every bone had broken; she was barely conscious, struggling even to breathe.

The rain-soaked ground showed obvious traces of blood, pooling in places, a sight that was quite shocking; the woman’s face was bruised and swollen, her hair disheveled beyond recognition.

She was quickly led to the other side by the police.

Ian Shelby broke free from the officers’ grasp, kneeling in the puddle of blood and water, his head raised as he howled, "Ah—!"

He faced the river, tears streaming down his face!

The feeling of heartache was so palpable, it was as if every hair on his body turned into sharp needles, piercing through his skin...

There were no visible wounds, but it hurt terribly.

The rain became heavier, as if the heavens themselves were protesting for Jocelyn Morgan!

Finn Morgan witnessed this scene, his anger subsiding halfway, his compassionate nature unable to hold Ian Shelby accountable.

Mia Lane reached out for another large black umbrella from the bodyguard nearby, opening it as she walked towards Ian Shelby!

Justin Kingston, meanwhile, strode towards Vera Ford, the bodyguards with umbrellas quickly following on either side!

The rain poured madly from the sky, and the dark sky seemed on the verge of collapse, causing sprays of water to erupt like flowers on the stone pavement.

Finn Morgan watched Ian Shelby, his thick brows knitted tightly, feeling the despair and suffering acutely as his brother.

On the river, dozens of salvage boats worked in segments, with several professional teams continuing their efforts, undeterred by the wind and rain.

Justin Kingston’s formidable presence seemed to freeze the surrounding air; his sharp eyes locked onto Vera Ford, who was nearly beaten to death, without a hint of sympathy, as he finally stood before her.
