Chapter 1753 The Retribution
"So Daphne was dead?" Evie was shocked.
"No, she didn't die. Troublemakers like her can't die that easily. She got caught. Samuel and Daphne were arrested together!" Sally chuckled, "Someone had proof of their wrongdoing and reported it to the police. At first, the evidence wasn't solid, and they might have been sentenced to less than three years. But here's the ironic part. Daphne got badly beaten, developed a deep hatred for Samuel, spilled some major secrets voluntarily, and even provided evidence. Now, Samuel is facing a life sentence, and his two older brothers are also implicated and arrested!"
"So, one shouldn't do bad things after all!" While enjoying her skewered meat, Evie summarized. "As the saying goes, a bad penny always comes back."
Athena didn't say much.
She ate slowly and listened quietly.
She wasn't aware of the subsequent developments.
"Now, let's talk about that pair of siblings," Sally continued after taking a big sip of iced cola, "Recently, news spread about Daphne being involved in the death of Samuel's original wife. It caused quite a stir and was widely discussed on social media. So people who know them must have found out too. Roland had a girlfriend he had been dating for a while. They were having relationship issues even before this incident. When the girl learned about it, she gave up on Roland. Soon after, she went on a blind date and found another partner. When Roland learned about this, he couldn't take it. On the night both his parents were arrested, he bought a knife and waited in the place where the girl often frequented!"
"Oh my goodness!"
Evie covered her mouth in astonishment.
Athena frowned subconsciously and asked, "And then?"
"The girl's new partner is a military veteran with a strong background, and he defended himself and fatally struck Roland when Roland tried to attack him with a knife!"
"And then Roland was dead?" Evie was even more surprised.
