Chapter 703 They Are Still Deserving of Death Emelie was hearing all this for the first time.
She stared at Charles with gleaming eyes, and her fingers clenched tightly in her pocket. But she remained silent.
"Back then, you were our biggest threat. I knew he might be pretending, but I still backed him up in front of Beathan, saying that you two were truly in love." There was a reason why Charles had said all these things. He asked with all sincerity, "In return for the help I once gave you, will you promise to take good care of Emmie and her daughter?" Emelie took a long tbefore she finally answered, "I'm not interested in that offer." Charles grew anxious. "Then, what do you want?" Emelie sat back in her chair and crossed her legs. "You know Benjamin Collymore, the head of the Collymore family in Glenfield, right?" Charles quickly recalled him and said, "Yes, I know him. A distant cousin of mine is married to him." Emelie nodded and continued, "Benjamin knows a neurologist named Shane Santiago. Shane has retired, and his whereabouts are unknown to outsiders, but Benjamin had consulted him earlier this year to treat his cousin. If you could use your connections to get Shane to agree to treat Ashley, I'll ensure that Emmie and her daughter will receive the best care." Charles pursed his lips and nodded. "Okay." Emelie added, "And you mustn't tell Beathan anything about our conversation today." Charles sighed. "Alright. I agree to everything." Emelie took out her phone. "Call him now." Charles made the call, which lasted an hour and a half, while Emelie listened the whole time. As expected, Benjamin provided Shane's contact information.

Emelie then walked out of the detention center.
Elias and Jodie were waiting by the car. Elias immediately looked at her, and Emelie gave him a nod. Elias finally got a slight smile on his face.
Emelie approached him and said, "I'll send you the contact information on Whatsoon. Just mention Benjamin's name. He's already given a heads-up." "Got it." Elias' Adam's apple bobbed. "Thank you." Emelie shook her head. "No need to thank me. We're partners. Without your connections, that charity fund wouldn't have been established so quickly, and Charles wouldn't have fallen into the trap so easily." Elias hurried off to contact Shane, not saying much more to Emelie. He gave a nod and left. Meanwhile, Emelie remained by the car. She was lost in thought until the snow started to fall again.
Of course, the snow wasn't as heavy as it had been in Borealis City.
Jodie noticed Emelie's ring finger trembling slightly. It was almost unnoticeable. She called out, "Ma'am".
Emelie looked at Jodie, who frowned. "Ma'am, are you cold? Your finger is shaking quite a lot." Emelie glanced down at her ring finger. Pressing her lips together, she suddenly said, "Charles just toldsomething." Jodie asked, "What is it?" Emelie forced a smile. "He said that William did everything he could to saveback then." Jodie opened her mouth to say something but was unsure of what to say.
Emelie chuckled softly, but her voice was as cold as melted ice water.

"No wonder... Before he killed me, he said that he had done everything in his power to save me, but in the end, he failed and had no choice but to end my life." Jodie called out, "Ma'am."
Emelie turned her gaze back to the detention center's gate. "So what if m Charles' revelation was meant to? showWilliam's good intentions? All it proves is that he wasn't entirely heartless. But deep down, he's no different from Charles.
"People are selfish. In the end, he chose to protect himself. For Cloudex Corporation and the Middleton ration and t family, he had no choice but to keep making mistakes and to killto silence me." Selfishness, self-preservation, lack of choice, and continued wrongdoing were just excuses for Charles, and they were the sexcuses William used.
Charles was shameless, despicable, and disgusting. William was no different.
A cold aura surrounded Emelie. "Does saying a prayer to absolve the victim before killing them make the killer a good person? Should they not die?" "No, they are still deserving of death."
