Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 172: Attempted Murder

Nate’s POV:

I was depressed as I watched the company’s stock prices plummeting that morning.

Just when I was lost in thought, the police knocked on my door. I stood up and asked, “Sir, what can I do for you?”

A middle-aged police officer walked in and asked in a serious tone, “Is Rita Lively here?”

Rita stood up at once and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“We suspect you to be involved in an attempted murder case, so please come with us to the police station. I suggest you cooperate with the investigation.” As soon as the policeman finished his words, another younger police office walked to Rita, holding a pair of handcuffs. I immediately lunged forward intending to stop the policeman. “Sir, is there some kind of a misunderstanding?”

“We’ll know that after we investigate the matter,”

the policeman said before he tried to put the handcuffs on Rita.

Rita immediately covered her chest as though she was about to faint.

“Mom, I want to go to the hospital. My heart hurts…”

She leaned against the sofa weakly with a pale face.

Susan immediately held her and said to the policeman, “Sir, my daughter is having a heart attack! Call a doctor.”

“There is no need for that. Take her to the hospital right away,” I said calmly. The policemen glanced at each other before they made way for us. Rita kept looking out of the window on our way and asked, “Mom, are the policemen still on our tail?”

“… I don’t know.” Susan was clearly frightened. She was trembling.

Seeing her like that, I frowned and said in a cold voice, “What are you so afraid of? It’s just the police, and you’re already scared to death!”

Hearing that, Susan calmed down and asked Rita, “What happened?”

“Charles is probably the one trying to sue me…” Rita replied in a low voice.

“Charles wants to sue you?” I asked with a frown.

Shaking her head, Rita said in a voice that was filled with hatred, “No. It’s not him. I am sure that bitch, Scarlett, is the one behind all this!”
