Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Chapter 1279

Janine stomped her cane on the floor before raising it, pointing at the large screen. “Open your eyes and take a

good look! You dragged the Bakers into these outrageous things! What a longstanding friendship!”

Several data transactions involved the Bakers, but Janine had taken precautions to avoid any funds of unclear

origin, preventing a crisis.

Albert’s plan had gone awry. He had hoped to control the Bakers as well…

Zuko glanced around, and the plainclothes police officers prepared to take action.

Nevertheless, Albert persisted before Janine, using a different approach this time. “Madam Baker! I didn’t want to

do this, but several investments of the Harpers failed, and the amount involved was too large. We couldn’t turn it

around, so we borrowed from the charity fund!”

He moved forward and grabbed Janine’s arm, almost kneeling.

Janine gave him a disgusted look. “Save your excuses for the police!”

“Madam Baker—”

“And I’ve handed the evidence to the police in Chaiseland! This isn’t the only crime the Harpers have committed.”

Janine looked at him coldly. “Embezzling charity funds, lending with high interest, and ruining countless families?

Haven’t you had nightmares spending this kind of money?”

Desiree approached to hold Janine, tears streaming down her face as she pleaded.

Albert hesitated but remained composed. He saw Desiree grabbing Janine’s hand and Janine trying to shake them

off…

In an instant, he gnashed his teeth and smashed his wine glass. Then, he picked up a shard of glass, pressing it

against Janine’s throat!

“Ah!” The guests screamed in shock.

But the closest people to Janine were Albert and Desiree!

Janine froze for a moment. Before she could react, Albert grabbed her neck and pressed the shard against her

carotid artery!

“Don’t come any closer!” Albert’s eyes glinted with killing intent. “Take a step forward, and I’ll kill her right now!”

“Albert Harper!” Zephyr and Cordelia rushed forward but didn’t dare to make any reckless moves.

Despite the pain from being dragged around, Janine’s determination remained like a flickering star, refusing to be

extinguished.

“Albert… I’m already old. Even if I die here today, it’ll still be a worthy death… But you and your precious daughter

won’t escape!” Janine said.

Albert smirked. “Madam Baker, if you die by my hand, that won’t be considered a worthy death! Both of us will

perish together! You should ask your kid and grandchildren whether they’d like that or not!”

“Albert, let go of my grandmother!” Toph wanted to rush forward, but Zuko held him back.

The crowd had dispersed, leaving only a few plainclothes police officers surrounding them, remaining vigilant.

A bead of sweat rolled down Albert’s face.

He gritted his teeth. “Zephyr, if the police dare to arrest me, I’ll kill your mother in front of you. I’d love to see who

is quicker, the police or me.”

Albert signaled to Desiree, who was somewhat panicked. Still, she obeyed his instruction and took out the gun

holstered to his waist.
