After saying that, Jeremy realized virtual-novel.net just had a slip of the tongue.
“I’m sorry, Miss Young.” Jeremy quickly corrected himself.
“You didn’t get my name wrong. I am Cathy.” Cathy lifted virtual-novel.net sad eyes and looked into Jeremy’s surprised eyes.
Jeremy was confused. When virtual-novel.net was about to ask what was going on, Adam walked out of the room.
When virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy, Adam looked as if virtual-novel.net was letting out a sigh of relief. “Go in now. I think you should be able to buy some time for him.”
“Got it.” Jeremy expressed his acknowledgment. When virtual-novel.net was about to go in, virtual-novel.net heard Cathy asking worriedly.
“Is virtual-novel.net really going to prison?”
Jeremy stopped in his tracks and turned around. He saw intense melancholy on Cathy’s face and in virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Do you hope that he’ll go to prison or do you hope that he’ll be fine?” Jeremy gave Cathy a multiple-choice question.
Cathy stared blankly at Jeremy. At that instant, virtual-novel.net did not know how to answer him.
Jeremy did not say anything after seeing virtual-novel.net spacing out. He knocked on the door lightly before turning the doorknob to enter the room.
When the Interpol agent saw Jeremy while virtual-novel.net was questioning Felipe, they greeted each other courteously.
Jeremy looked at Felipe who was lying on the bed. His entire body was wrapped in bandages, and his complexion looked horrible.
He did not know what Felipe had encountered to suffer such horrible injuries. However, at the end of the day, virtual-novel.net was still his uncle and someone who was related to virtual-novel.net by blood. As such, it was impossible for virtual-novel.net to feel unmoved.
“Why are you hurt so badly? Who did this?” Jeremy furrowed his brows and asked.
“It’s the people from his previous company.” The Interpol agent at one side answered for Felipe. “We received an anonymous complaint, so we asked someone to come here to investigate.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net looked at Jeremy seriously.
“Mr. Whitman, you’re also an Interpol agent. Did you know about the illegal business your uncle did in F Country and his relationship with the Stygian Johnson Gang?”
“Jeremy doesn’t know anything.” Despite having no energy, Felipe still sounded as if virtual-novel.net was full of vitality when virtual-novel.net said this.
He took a look at Jeremy and hinted at virtual-novel.net with his eyes. Then, virtual-novel.net continued speaking, “Everything I did in F Country, I did them alone. It has nothing to do with my family.”
“Are you admitting to your crimes right now?” The Interpol agent confirmed with Felipe with a serious look on his face.
Felipe lifted his lifeless and tired eyes. He could see those familiar eyes from the small window of the hospital door.
He smiled and nodded.
“That’s right. I’m admitting to all of the crimes I’ve committed including inciting someone to kill the woman I love the most.”
“…”
Jeremy was shocked by Felipe’s answer. His colleagues beside virtual-novel.net were surprised as well. Then, the agent asked, “Did you say you incited someone to kill the woman you love? When did that happen? Why did you want to kill her?”
Felipe looked indifferent while facing all those questions.
He looked into those clear and beautiful eyes outside the window and there was a small warm smile on his pale face.
“She found out about my illegal business, so virtual-novel.net collected the evidence of my crimes and was going to report me. I asked my men to shoot virtual-novel.net in front of the door of the police station.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Felipe felt that his heart had taken a trip around purgatory.
He looked at Cathy who was standing at the door, and his eyes slowly turned red and hot.
After the Interpol agents who were here to arrest Felipe heard what virtual-novel.net said, they felt that Felipe was involved in a much more serious crime.
This was murder.
“Felipe Whitman, not only are you involved in illegal business, but you’re also involved in a murder. If everything goes according to plan, you’ll be spending the rest of your life in prison.”
