Bye, My Irresistible Love

Caroline‘s POV 

The police came to the hospital after Charles left.

"Miss Wilson, we need your statement, so please cooperate with us,"

"Don‘t be nervous and just tell them what you saw.I will be right outside the door if you need me," Simon comforted me in a low voice.

A sense of relief came to my heart when I looked into his calm eyes with a grateful smile, 1 nodded at him and turned to the policemen.

"I am ready.You can ask."

"Miss Wilson, today was the day of the Wilson Group‘s cast bank project‘s groundbreaking ceremony, right? Why were you in the abandoned warehouse instead of the party?"

"I got a call from someone and they said that they were holding my kids hostage, so I had to go there," I answered honestly,  "Did you kill Susan Lively?"

My heart was racing when I looked into the policeman‘s meaningful eyes.

"No!" I said firmly.

"But the bullet that we took from Susan‘s body matches the one from your pistol.And there was exactly one bullet missing from your gun.Do you have an explanation for that?" My heart clenched, and I immediately understood Adam‘s plan.

Perhaps, Susan did not know that she was being used as bait in his plan.

Adam was so keen on framing me that he did not even hesitate to kill Susan to set me up! Feeling the burning tide of rage in my heart, I couldn‘t help but sneer.

"I didn‘t shoot her.Besides, there was a gang of kidnappers there too," I explained in a low voice.

"Miss Wilson, do you remember any specific features of the kidnappers you just mentioned?"

Frowning, I thought for a while, recalling fragments from my time at the warehouse.

"I remember them having web–shaped tattoos on their arms."

The policemen exchanged glances and asked in a low voice, "Can you describe the design to us?"

"I just looked at it for a second when they grabbed me, so I don‘t remember the details too clearly."
