Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149 Trying to Expose the Mastermind Behind the Scenes

"Do you still want to argue, Renee? You killed Peter after failing to kill me. Besides that, you don't even want to let off my son Andres."

Remington angrily added, "Grandmother, the fire at your residence that night was actually caused by this woman. She was trying to kill Andres."

"What?" Gabriella looked at Renee in disbelief.

Renee cried and said, "I'm innocent, Gabriella. The fire that night was caused by old wiring. What does it have to do with me?"

"Old wiring is just a reason. In reality, you had someone drug with Gail's food, causing her to have diarrhea that night. You also asked someone to take Maelynn from my grandma's residence and then set the fire, wanting to burn down the house and kill my son. How wicked you are!"

Remington glared daggers at Renee, and everyone was looking at her.

Cynthia exclaimed, "Oh my God! How could you do that? You wanted to kill not only my brother but also my nephew? You vicious woman!"

Sabrina defended her mother, saying, "That's impossible! Don't slander my mom!"

"Slander? Listen to this and see if I'm slandering her!"

Remington played a recording, and soon the voices of the two people talking could be heard.

It was the conversation about Renee asking Carlos to set the fire.

After the recording was played, Remington's cold gaze swept over Renee and Carlos.

Carlos immediately explained, "I didn't do that. I was with Madam Nelson at the hospital that night. Miss Cynthia was also there."

Carlos provided an alibi, but Remington saw through it in an instant.

"It wasn't you who did it, indeed. But you made the arrangements secretly. The arsonist was the servant Owen. Bring Owen here!"

Soon, the subordinates brought the servant Owen to the main hall.

"Owen, what on earth happened? Tell the truth!" Gabriella scolded.

Upon seeing everyone, Owen was so scared that he knelt down on the ground.

"Madam Nelson, Mr. Samuel, Mr. Remington, I didn't want to do it, but Carlos forced me to. If I didn't listen to him, he would expose my theft of antiques. I was afraid, so I had to agree and cooperate with his plan."

Carlos yelled, "Owen, I've been good to you. Why are you slandering me?"

Owen quickly said, "I'm not slandering you. Everything I said was true. I was worried that you would accuse me after using me, so I secretly recorded our conversation."

Carlos was left dumbfounded.

After listening to Owen's recording, everyone understood that Carlos had indeed instructed Owen to set the fire.

Now everything was clear.

The real mastermind behind this was Renee. Carlos was acting on Renee's orders and became her accomplice.

"Besides Owen's testimony, I have another piece of evidence. You can check this USB drive."

Remington held up a USB drive.

"Do you want to know why Renee asked Peter to put the snake?"

Everyone waited for Remington to explain further. He continued, "That's because they had an affair with each other. Before Renee became famous, Peter was her pursuer. He came to work for the Nelson family as a servant just for her."

After a pause, Remington added, "This USB drive was found in Peter's room. Renee, there are pictures of you before you did plastic surgery and evidence of your affair with him. He is your best tool for manipulation. After things went wrong, you just make him take the blame, right? Do you want me to show everyone the video of you and Peter's affair?"

"No, please don't!" Renee shouted, already pale with fear.
