Chapter 371 You Should Be Thankful That Nothing Happened

Yaxley gave Fanny a cold glance and inquired, “Nothing transpired that night, did it?”

Fanny paled, caught off guard by Yaxley’s question. She bit her lip, lowered her head, and remained silent.

Yaxley furrowed his brow as he observed her. Unable to discern Fanny’s expression, he didn’t try to understand her feelings. After a moment, he grew impatient and pressed. “Are you not going to tell me?”

Fanny was startled by his tone, lifted her head resolutely, and inquired. “If I confess, will you release me? While I was involved in those activities, most of it was at Dylan’s behest!” Moreover, Dylan is also responsible for Yoanna’s car accident. Since Dylan won’t be free for a while, he should shoulder all the blame!

“Release you?” Yaxley frowned. “No one is attempting to bail you out?” He thought of Fanny’s former lover. Christopher. Although he didn’t know much about their relationship, he suspected Christopher might find a way to secure Fanny’s release.

Fanny clenched her teeth in frustration. Seeing Yaxley’s oblivious expression, she realized the subordinates had acted against his wishes.

Yaxley had no intention of blocking anyone specifically from bailing her out. It was the subordinates who had imposed such a rule to appease

him.

Joseph has been here before, but the police denied my bail request, Fanny said pitifully, gazing at Yaxley. “Yaxley, I was deceived by Dylan before. I won’t make the same mistake again. Please release me.”
