Chapter 73 I Want to Stay with Her
Liam gazed fixedly out of the window. The Linton Bridge in the distance was surrounded by fog. He
closed his eyes and knitted his brows irritably. His temple was swelling and aching.
Did he mean to keep it from her forever?
How was that possible?
She would know sooner or later.
But according to the tradition of the Martinez family, the woman who married him could only be one
from the other three wealthy families. If Stella married into the Martinez family, one could imagine what
would happen to her.
Most importantly, the person whom he was impersonating was Liam Anderson...
He sighed deeply and took out Liam's ID card from the inside pocket of his jacket. The person on the
ID card had a face highly similar to his, but that was not him.
"Noah," although Oliver did not have a high IQ, but his EQ was superb, "why don't you end your
'training' early? Just leave the trivial things here in Bramore to me and Caleb, so that you can hurry
back to see Stella and relieve your lovesickness!"
Liam's expression changed subtly, and he turned around.
For the first time in these days in Linton, he showed such a relieved smile.
Caleb could not help giving Oliver a thumbs up secretly. They looked at each other and smiled, then
packed their things and prepared to leave. At this moment, Andrew Turner broke in suddenly. He
looked at Liam with a flustered expression.
"Master Noah!" ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"What's wrong?"
Andrew licked his lips and said, "Something has happened to Miss Taylor in Eldoria!"
...
Stella had been in the interrogation room for a day and a night.
The small room was surrounded by gray walls and no windows. There was only one door which gave
off a dismal air. Cameras were installed at the four corners of the ceiling, facing straight at her, and
behind the cameras there was the monitoring room.
The staff in uniform could observe all of her expressions, words and behaviors from different angles
through the monitor.
Stella's face was pale, and her eyes were sunken. Her hands were grabbing anxiously at her clothes
under the table.
"Ms. Taylor, aren't you going to tell us the truth?" The police officer opposite to her asked severely,
"Putting if off longer won't do you any good. Your future will be ruined!"
"I didn't do it..." Stella insisted no matter how many times she was asked.
She did not make a profit by giving the marketing plan to the competitors, let alone divulging company
secrets.
However, for some reason, a lot of police officers suddenly came to the company the day before, and
then the director called her into the conference room.
"Stella, the company has painstakingly developed you. Is this how you repay the company?!"
The director slammed the evidence in front of her, which was exactly the marketing plan she had been
working on recently. However, this plan inexplicably fell into the hands of a competitor, who adopted it
one step ahead of time and introduced new products to the market, resulting in a very harmful situation
for Rainbow Export.
Stella was taken away by the police. She walked down the stairs with a dejected expression, and when
she passed by Ava, she clearly saw the vicious and proud look in Ava's eyes...
"I didn't do it." Stella insisted with a trembling voice and red eyes.
The interrogators looked at each other and exchanged glances.
The staff behind the monitor snorted coldly and contacted the interrogators in the room by walkie-talkie,
"I heard that this woman was promoted not long after she joined the company, and she even eliminated
a shareholder and a supervisor. She also excelled in work performance. She's not easy to deal with, so
beware!"
"Miss Taylor," the interrogator changed his method, "now that we have all the witnesses and evidence,
you have no way to deny it. And the competitor's staff has already confessed that you disclosed the
plan to them on purpose. There was also a cash transaction between you..."
"Nonsense!" Stella was shaking with agitation, and slapped the table hard, "I have never done that,
never! Who is spreading rumors behind my back? Ava Brown? Tell her to come and confront me!"
"Be quiet!" The interrogator slammed the table, and the roar echoed throughout the room, "What place
do you think this is for you to yell like this?"
"I'll never admit to what I have not done!"
Stella's hands and feet were cold. She bit her lips tightly, trying to calm herself down.
"I wrote that plan, but I kept it in my computer, and the hardcopy was locked in my drawer. I don't know
how it fell into the hands of the other company. If there was a mole in the company, the plan must have
been stolen from me... so I demand a thorough investigation of all CCTVs in the company, and anyone
who can come in and out of my office should be suspected!"
"Miss Taylor, as a sales supervisor, isn't it normal for subordinates to come in and out of your office?
Even if the CCTVs are checked, we can't accuse so many people just based on the CCTV clips!"
"But you also can't say that I betrayed the company just based on the words of the other company!"
"You..."
The interrogators' eyes were wide with anger. They were just about to say something when they heard
a low voice coming from the earphones.
"Her mother is mentally ill, and her younger brother is underage. She has a husband, but I can't contact
him at the moment. Her husband had a criminal record, so I think I can give it a try!"
"Okay, roger." The interrogator smiled slightly and turned off the earphones.
"Miss Taylor," he stood up slowly and said confidently, "Even if you don't think about yourself, think
about your husband. He has a criminal record, and you don't want to get a stain like him, do you? Do
you want both of you to live in shame in the future?"
...
After Caleb left the police station, he rushed to Liam's house immediately.
"How's it?" Liam, who was already anxious and irritable, looked even more so now, "Who the hell did
it?"
"Don't worry, listen to me." Caleb took a deep breath, "My initial guess was that Ava had teamed up
with the competitor to frame Stella, but these parties insisted that it was Stella who disclosed the
company secrets. Besides, the evidence was disadvantageous to her. I checked the CCTVs and found
that one of the clips had been erased. I think it was probably the part where Ava stole the sales plan."
"Damn it!"
Gritting his teeth, Liam slammed his fist against the wall.
Although he was in Bramore, he would contact Stella every day. He wanted to know that everything
was fine with her even if it was just sending a few words or calling for a few minutes.
But just two days ago, he suddenly couldn't contact Stella. Presumably Stella had already been
temporarily detained by the police at that time, and her mobile phone was kept away from her.
He regretted it so much. He should have come back to face this together with her!
"Stella had been interrogated all night." Caleb coughed lightly, "The interrogator also mentioned Liam's
criminal record... Noah, I think you'd better not show up at the police station. If you attract attention, the
police may suspect your identity, and I'm afraid Christopher Martinez also had someone watching you."
"Don't worry, I will deal with Stella's matter, and she will definitely be released on bail. We'll discuss how
to handle this lawsuit later! What do you say?"
Liam's face was gloomy, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
After a long silence, he suddenly got up and strode towards the door.
"Noah, where are you going?" Caleb was startled.
"I want to stay with her." His answer was short and crisp but determined.
He was her husband, and this was when she needed him most.
He must be by her side!
Caleb was stunned for a moment. He was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, and he hurried
to catch up.
