All Too Late

Chapter 331: Prove Her Innocence

Gizem chuckled. Yareli insists on framing me; does she really think that everyone else is stupid? “Samuel, I’m telling the truth,” Yareli stated firmly. Samuel cast her a cold gaze. “Who told you she did it?” Yareli paused. Her eyes were filled with guilt as she added, “The ones you captured! Someone told me that they have confessed. This whole thing was orchestrated by this woman!” Samuel’s cold stare remained. “I’ll get to the bottom of this.” Yareli bit her lip. She didn’t know which part she had messed up. “Samuel, don’t forget what I mean to you!” Yareli expressed her displeasure. Samuel’s handsome face turned grim. “I hate threats. I don’t mind killing you, and then wait for death myself.” Yareli froze. Gizem smiled faintly at her, and then calmly walked past her. Overcome by anger, Yareli gnashed her teeth. For some reason, Gizem was in a very good mood. She followed Samuel into Florinia Manor.

The captives had been locked in the tower there. They had all been tortured by Gizem to the extreme, and were in indescribable pain because they did not receive timely treatment. They all got excited when they finally saw Samuel show up, but their faces fell when they spotted Gizem right behind him. Gizem snickered. “You all work for me. Is this how you react when you see me coming to save you?” Samuel threw her a sideways glance. She had actually gone on a preemptive strike. This put the few people in an awkward situation. “What are your names?” Gizem asked smilingly. There was a malicious intend behind her smile, which made them shudder.

Macari what benefits I’ve given you?” Gizem flashed a half-smile. “If anything, I don’t think I’m an exploitative tyrant. Since you work for me, I’ll surely not mistreat you.” Alice exchanged glances with the others. “If you can provide the evidence, Mr. Macari will let you go.

I’m actually scared to death. Mr. Macari and I struck a deal. If you can provide the evidence,

Macari will check it out,” Gizem instructed. Alice hesitated. “What are you waiting for?” Gizem frowned. “Don’t you want to live? You’ve betrayed me, so might as well get it over with.” Alice looked at the others. Then, she opened her mouth and provided an account number. Gizem turned to Samuel. “Mr. Macari, you may go check.” Casting her an impassive gaze, he responded, “You’re coming with me!” “Fine.” Gizem trailed behind him. After they stepped out,

on, “If you don’t believe me, Mr. Macari, there’s nothing I can do. If you’re so sure that I did it, you can do whatever you plan to do to me.” She got tired of explaining. Samuel glanced at her coldly, thinking that it would be far-fetched to consider this a pitiful act. Her move wasn’t a smart one because it completely exposed her. He could tell that Gizem was smart and cautious. She couldn’t have committed such a grave mistake, unless she was framed. If so, then that person’s goal was
