Joan clenched her teeth. “Stop talking!”
Sean looked at her coldly and said nothing more.

She looked at the cop beside her vacantly. “Can I talk to him for a bit, officer?”
“Yes, but you have to confess to your crimes. Denial won’t do your sentence any good.” The

Xavien got a chair for Sean, who sat down and looked at Joan coldly, saying nothing.

“When you came to my place that day and used Snakey’s photo to force an answer out of me, you knew how you
were going to take me down, didn’t you?” She looked at the man with hate. That day, he showed her a photo of

guy.
A few days before he showed her that photo, she was in contact with Snakey, coming up with a plan to use Lina to
gain his trust. Joan did not admit it, but she told him she could find a way if he wanted to get in touch with Snakey.
“I wasn’t trying to take you down. You were blinded by your greed. If you’d taken Jimmy’s side, I’d never have found
him easily.” He looked at her coldly.
“So,

showed me that photo because you wanted me to walk into the trap.” Joan smiled. Sean tossed a smokescreen into
the battlefield, and she let her guard down. The moment she told him. she could hook him up with Snakey, she had
fallen into his trap. Similarly, Snakey had been dragged into it since then as well.
“After your imprisonment, try to remember everything Kingston has done for you. Get better. You and your brother
are at least 100 years too early to fight me.” Sean stood up.
Joan cried and screeched, her scream hysterical.
He stood at the doorway and looked at her for a while. Once she calmed down, he added, “Back in high school, I
took you and your brother as close friends. When he tripped over in the working world, I wanted to help you guys
get on your feet. But kindness often begets betrayal in return. My kindness gave birth to their evil.
Sean did reflect on how things turned out this way, but the Palmer siblings made him realize what kindness begets
betrayal’ meant. His unlimited giving to Joan eventually backfired on him.
When she looked at him, she only saw his back as he was gone a moment later. She fell from the bed and crawled
toward the door, crying. “Sean, please, I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Don’t leave me! I promise I won’t ruin your relationship
anymore! I’ll tell Abigail everything! Please, don’t leave!”
She did not get too far, for the pain made her black out for a moment, and she almost fainted.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the cops came in, she was bawling her eyes out.
On the day of the hearing, Kingston confessed to his crimes before his lawyer could say a thing. He even told them
about what he did in the past.
Abigail was in the plaintiff’s seat, staring at him in surprise. Her lawyer was shocked as well. He had a stack of
documents prepared, but there was no use for them anymore.
In the end, Kingston was sentenced to ten years of jail time. When Abigail came out of the court, she was a little
dazed. Her lawyer smiled awkwardly. “Didn’t think it’d go that smoothly.” They were prepared for the battle, but
Kingston confessed immediately.
“Yeah. Thanks for all the work you did for me over these months. I’ll give you the payment as promised. She turned
around and smiled at her lawyer.
The lawyer smiled, nodding. “Pleasure doing business with you, Ms. Quinn.”
“Pleasure.” She shook his hand.
A few days after Kingston’s trial was over, Pendorf’s authority announced Joan’s verdict. She was sentenced to
three years in prison for a case of kidnapping. Since she was a has-been, her verdict went viral.
