How could it be possible? What on earth did he want to do?
While I was in a state of anxiety, the radio began to broadcast the process of this competition.
I listened carefully to the broadcast, and I couldn't be more nervous.
Just as I was in a panic, I heard a commotion over there, as if an accident had happened.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle."
"What's wrong? Why can't I hear the broadcast?" Suddenly, there was a sizzling sound from the radio, and I asked the driver worriedly.
The driver took a look at me and explained, "Maybe something happened over there, so the broadcast was disturbed."
Something happened? What happened?
Just as I was nervous, the broadcast sounded again.
"Dear audiences, due to the accident in this design competition, this design competition has been canceled. The person in charge of the Xi's Group has been detained by the police. As for further questions, we are waiting for news from the police. Thanks for listening."
Being detained by police?
Was Edward detained by police? I was stimulated by the broadcast and I clenched my fist which was on my belly.
Was Edward detained by police? What was going on? What happened?
The design competition was canceled, and Edward was detained?
"Miss, we arrive."
When I was in panic and uneasy, the car had arrived at William's villa.
Two bodyguards asked me to get out of the car.
After getting out of the car, they took me into the villa and asked me to stay in the living room. Then they stood at the door.
I picked up the remote control on the table in a panic and turned on the TV. There was a broadcast about the design competition, but it ended soon.
Moreover, there were also many comments saying that someone died in Edward's clothing store because of something against the rules.
Someone died...
How could it be?
I immediately went to search the latest news online.
Because of the developed network, there had been comments on the Internet about the detention of Edward.
The model who should have participated in the design competition died because she wore the wedding dress of Edward's company. According to the forensic identification, the clothing store owned by Edward cheated on labor and materials was, they produced substances harmful to the human body. The virus which caused the model to die was transmitted from the wedding dress to her skin.
Not only the model, but after the model's death, there had been several deaths due to wearing the clothes of Edward's company. There were comments on the Internet that the reason why it was not exposed before was because Edward concealed it.
What on earth was going on with these news?
Could it be that they already had evidence?
When I was anxiously reading that news, I heard the sound of the car's engine outside the yard.
When I heard it, I knew it was William who came back.
I put my hand down from the keyboard and looked at the door directly.
William came in from the outside. He gave the coat in his hand to the bodyguard beside him and strode toward me.
"What's going on with the comments online?" I got up, looked at William, and gritted my teeth.
This matter was definitely not simple. Only William knew the inside story.
"Haven't you seen it? It's like what you have seen online." William spread out his hands faintly and sat on the sofa opposite me.
Looking at William who seemed to have changed into another person, I rushed to him and said angrily, "It's all because of you." "Yes." Facing my question, William was as honest as ever with his hands crossed on his belly.
"Why did you do this?" I looked at him and smiled bitterly.
"Why? Ashley, you don't know how much I hate the Xis. You don't need to care about this matter, because you don't have the ability." William glanced at me and said to me with a sneer.
"Do you think you can beat Edward with such a little thing?" I looked at William and sneered.
Edward was so powerful. How could he be defeated by these things?
"This time, Edward will definitely be defeated." William stared at me with a wired sly look.
"What do you mean by saying this?" William's eyes were so horrible that my body couldn't help shaking.
"You will soon know that the Xis will completely become a history."
William took a deep look at me, then got up and went upstairs.
"William, you make me feel scared."
Looking at his back, I said in a deep voice.
What William look like really made me feel scared.
"He had already known what William wanted you to do, but he didn't stop you. He just wanted to see how much you hate him. He said that no matter what you do, he won't blame you."
"Edward, why did he do this?" I heard Paul's words, and I felt so sad, but I was angrier.
How could he choose to sacrifice himself? Why was he like this?
Did he think that I would be moved by what he did? It was just a delusion. I would not be moved by this kind of thing.
"Miss, the plane is ready. Please pack up. I'll take you somewhere else right away." Paul stared at me with deep eyes and said.
"I won't leave. As I said, I did it. I'll go to the police station and confess my crime."
In the end, because of hatred, William used me to send Edward to prison.
I wouldn't let Edward bear the crime for me.
"It's useless. William has already schemed everything. Even if you said that the powder was put by you, there is no way to save him." Paul stopped me and shook his head.
"Why is it useless? I sprinkled the powder on those clothes. William said that he wanted to stop Edward's designers from participating in the competition. I didn't know. I thought it was just the powder that could make people sleep. I didn't know that it would kill someone."
"You don't have to blame yourself. William has schemed everything. Miss, please leave with me."
"I... won't go. Take me to the police station to see Edward." William had schemed everything well. He did everything on purpose, but I didn't know.
I was used by him, but I didn't know at all.
Seeing that I was so persistent, Paul had no choice but to take me to the prison to see Edward.
On the way, Paul told me about what happened. This time, Edward was really in big trouble.
William used some method to let the family members of those who wore the clothes of the Xi's Group sue the Xi's Group to the court.
The stock price of the Xi's Group plummeted, and the shareholders sold off their shares after another. Even the companies that had cooperated with the Xi's Group had withdrawn their investment.
The Xi's Group went bankrupt overnight.
It was not the worst thing. Later, it was exposed that Edward had used unfair means to deal with his rival companies. It was even said that Edward had laundered money and evaded taxes. There were even Edward's seal on some documents.
Everything was perfect and flawless.
Even the most famous lawyer was helpless in the face of that irrefutable evidence.
"The worst thing is that those people's confessions are all against him."
I felt a chill in my heart when I heard William's despicable schemes.
