But Jason’s professional instincts made him feel deeply unsettled just looking at Tessa

And he wasn’t the only one, even the officer standing beside him felt a similar discomfort at her smile

It was as if she were wearing a mask

But” 

Jason added calmly, You might want to prepare yourself. That man who came with you will definitely be facing jail time.” 

With that, Jason turned to leave

Tessa staggered back two steps, a look of disbelief spreading across her face

What? How could this happen?” 

Julian watched her reaction and felt nothing but disgust

She knew everything, yet here she was, acting innocent

She was so fake

Everything he was suffering now was because of her

And yet she was standing there, playing the part of the heartbroken companion better than anyone

Who would still believe her at this point

Julian let out a cold snort. You’re quite the actress. Aren’t you afraid a ghost might come knocking on your door at night?” 

Tessa heard the remark but couldn’t care less

No matter what happened, her priority was to keep herself out of it

She gave a puzzled smile. Julian, what are you talking about

I’ve been worried sick about you. When the doctor said that, my mind went completely blank.” 

As she spoke, her eyes even filled with tears

I really didn’t expect you to do something like this. I’m really shocked.” 

Seeing her performance, Julian couldn’t bring himself to say another word

Fine

Even if he ended up behind bars, Tessa better not think she’d walk away from this unscathed

If it came down to it, they’d go down together

He didn’t care

He was the only heir of the Hayes familyhis father would definitely find a way to get him out

There was no way they’d let him rot alone in prison

Seeing that Julian had fallen silent, Tessa quietly shut her mouth as well

She knew exactly what he was thinking

But this was something she had to do

There were plenty of pawnsone more or less didn’t matter

Besides, she still had a hidden connection she hadn’t used yet

No matter how things played out, she wouldn’t lose so easily

She was going to push forward, step by step, and crush Aurora beneath her heel

She refused to fail, and she wasn’t going to stand by while Aurora kept flaunting her importance

Tessa would never allow that to happen

But even looking at Julian now, there wasn’t the slightest flicker of sympathy in her eyes

If he had just moved faster, none of this would’ve happened

It was his own incompetence that got him caught

No matter what anyone said, he brought this on himself

Tessa kept repeating that to herself in her mind, over and over again

Meanwhile, before heading off to find Lucas, Jason explained the full situation to the police

He pointed toward Julian slumped in the chair. Take him in for questioning. There were plenty of people in the room at the timethey can all testify

As for how exactly he got in, you can check the security footage.” 

The officer nodded in understanding

Jason had been working with them for years

They trusted him

And in a situation like this, there was no benefit in lying

What would be the point

Jason added one final instruction, Don’t worry about whatever identity this man throw 

  1. ou. It doesn’t matter
