A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 72

He ignored my words. He just gave me a cold look and waved his hand to ask someone to take me away.

I looked with fear at the men when they grabbed my arms and pulled me away, but I didn't dare struggle, because someone put a gun to my waist.

These people were certainly not prison guards. Who the h*ll were they?

I was so scared and suppressed the fear in my heart. They seized me on both sides by my arms and took me into a car.

There was a small alley behind the detention room. These people took me out and said that they would interrogate me alone.

I didn't know who these people were, but they must not be good people.

They threatened me with a gun, which made them look more like gangsters.

Did someone want me to die so he asked them to kill me?

When I thought of this, I was extremely scared.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"

I tried to talk to these people, but they ignored me. They still looked cold with pistols in their hands.

Looking at their pistols, my face changed and I stopped talking. The car went on for a long time. When I was a little dizzy, I found that the car had stopped.

After the two men who escorted me got off the car, they asked me to get off immediately.

I licked my lips nervously and got out of the car, then I was forced to enter a wooden house.

I looked at the wooden house in front of me blankly and stopped walking.

The man behind me seemed to be very dissatisfied with my sudden stop. He pushed me hard and said with a cold face, "What are you doing? Go ahead quickly."

I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth, "Who are you? I don't know which law stipulates that prisoners should be interrogated in such a remote place?"

It seemed that they wanted to kill me rather than interrogate me.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Do you want to die?" The man behind him seemed to have a bad temper. He glanced at me and said in a cold voice.

I clenched my fists and felt aggrieved. I didn't want to go into this wooden house. If I went in, I might die instantly.

"Go in." Seeing that I didn't move, the man behind me took out his pistol with a terrible look and pointed at my forehead.

My face darkened. Although I was a little afraid, I looked calm on the surface, "You are really not the real police. Who sent you guys?" "Go in." He pointed impatiently at the wooden house and said to me with a gloomy face.

I looked at the pistols in their hands, those were real guns. I didn't dare provoke them any more. I must be alive.

I gritted my teeth and walked into the wooden house. Just as I walked in, the door was closed with a creak.

When I heard the door of the wooden house was closed, I panicked. When I turned back, I saw a few men standing at the door, as if they were preventing me from escaping.

"Do it." The man who pointed me with the gun ordered other men.

"What do you want to do?"

I was so scared that I kept stepping back until I was pushed to a corner. Looking at the man who was walking toward me step by step, I couldn't say a word.

"If you admit to the crime of murder, we will let you go. If you don't admit it, don't blame us for being ruthless."

The man who spoke stared at me with a sneer. He threw his coat on the ground and slowly unbuttoned his shirt.

I looked at their movements, and I felt so nervous, then I growled at them, "What do you want to do?"

"Sign this statement of confession. Admit that you've killed Gramps Xi and we'll send you back to the detention room immediately."

A tall and thin man walked up to me, threw me a piece of paper, and asked me to sign on it.

I took a look and found it was a statement of confession. They asked me to sign this and wanted me to admit that I killed grandpa.

It was impossible for me to agree to this kind of thing.

I clenched my fists, raised my head, and said superciliously to them, "I've told you that I haven't killed grandpa. It's impossible for me to admit it."

"Since you don't agree, then don't blame us." After finishing his words, the tall and thin man threw the statement of confession aside. With a wave of his hand, four or five tall and strong men had surrounded me.

I looked at the movements of those people, and my whole body tautened violently. I didn't know what these people wanted to do, but I knew that they wanted to force me to admit the crime.

"Get out." I gritted my teeth and growled at the men around me.

They sneered and a man rushed to me, grabbed my wrist, and took off my clothes.

"Get out! Don't touch me!"

Looking at their actions, I knew what these people were going to do. I opened my eyes wide in horror and roared in a low voice.

"Catch her legs, cover her mouth." A man suddenly ordered. Soon, both of my hands were caught, and my mouth was covered.

The extreme pain was still fresh in my memory.

It hurt so much...

I was so excited that I wanted to get up, but there was a faint pain in my chest.

"Don't be excited. The doctor said that you were shot in the chest. Although your life is not in danger, you are still seriously injured." William held my body and said to me in a hoarse voice.

I licked my lips, looked at him, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't die."

I got shot in the heart, and I thought that I would definitely die. But I didn't.

"Don't talk like a fool. Your heart is different from ordinary people. It's closer to the right side, so the bullet did not penetrate your heart." William gently held my hand. I could feel that his hand seemed to be shaking uncontrollably.

Was he also afraid?

My face was pale and weak. Bitterly, I asked, "William, are you afraid?"

"Ashley, I'm sorry." He apologized to me with sadness in his eyes.

After listening, I shook my head and said feebly, "Why do you apologize to me?"

William had nothing to do with this kind of thing that happened to me.

He looked at me with a complicated look. His eyes became unpredictable and I couldn't understand the emotions in his eyes.

He did not explain, but said to me bitterly, "I didn't protect you well, so you almost died."

"It's none of your business. I just want to know who did it this time." Who was so eager to kill me? I really wanted to know who this person was.

"I don't know for the time being. I received a phone call and knew that you were taken away. I was so worried, so I asked a friend for help. When we got there, those people wanted to kill you." William briefly explained what happened at that time, but in my mind, I vaguely remembered that a gunfight had taken place. Was I dreaming?

"Don't I need to go back to the prison?" I bit my lips, looked at him and asked.

Because I was a suspect. Could I stay in the hospital?

"We've found evidence and the murderer. Early this morning, the police had already clarified everything and you've been released without guilty."

The murder? Was it Betty?

I looked at William in a daze. He touched my hair and said, "The murderer is a nurse in the hospital. She wants to frame you because she is jealous of you. The police have found the illegal medicine of heart failure from her residence, as well as some fingerprints that prove that she wants to frame you."
