My Second Husband novel Chapter 1062

Richard resolutely stood in front of Nelson and looked at the police officers in front of them with sharp eyes.

"This is all my doing. If you want to take somebody with you, just take me instead of him!"

The police officers frowned as they said, "We're acting in accordance with the law. Please don't be unreasonable, Sir. We don't want to take action by force."

"I don't care! As long as I'm here, you can't take him away!"

Nelson furrowed his brow and said, "Richard, get out of the way!"

At that point, he had already given up. He had been planning to make amends for the trouble he had caused Naomi, but his cowardice had gotten the better of him and he no longer dared to tell her the truth.

In his mind, he thought that there would always be a chance to tell her everything in the future.

Unfortunately, he had miscalculated. Someone had taken the opportunity of his engagement party to scheme against him and revealed the truth before he did. However, he was just reaping what he sowed as he was to be blamed because he was the one who had chosen to delay confessing to Naomi.

What was more, Naomi was right. Some of the wrongdoings had indeed been done by him.

If she couldn't forgive him, to be imprisoned or to stay free would make no difference to him. In fact, prison was nothing to him compared to the bad blood that had formed between Naomi and him.

Richard shook his head desperately as he said, "I won't get out of the way! Where is Miss George? It's not what you all think. I can explain it!"

Nelson let out a rueful smile. The police had already arrived, so any explanation would be useless.

Richard shouted, "Miss George, please come out, I'll explain things to you. You can't do this to Nelson!"

Amos quickly stopped him, "That's enough!"

"Stop yelling! We are not blind either as we can see and judge things by ourselves. As for you, you can do whatever you want. Just don't bother us anymore! I believe that justice will be served by the police."

After that, Amos gave the people behind him a look.

A few secret guards immediately came up and subdued Richard. Although Richard knew how to fight, he was still not as skillful as the professional guards of the Granger Family.

In the end, both Richard and Nelson were taken away.

The farce finally came to an end. The guests had already been arranged to leave the hall after the incident had broken out.

After the dust had settled, Clint took the initiative to come forward and bow to Amos.

"I'm sorry, sir. I didn't do my job well, otherwise, Miss Naomi wouldn't..."

Amos said in a low voice, "It's not your fault. I haven't done well as a father. You are not the one to be blamed."

Clint pursed his lips before saying, "Actually, it's not your fault. It's just that Nelson's act had been too flawless. I wonder what his motive is."

"Motive?"

Amos snorted, "Don't you see it? Obviously, he was in cahoots with Monique!"

Clint was gobsmacked and asked, "Do you mean that..."

"If I'm not mistaken, he has actually been holding a grudge against our family. He must have regained his memory after he went abroad. I don't know what happened, but somehow Monique had hoodwinked him into hating us more. After the death of his adoptive parents, he should have been living by Monique's side."

"Needless to say, the reason he came back to Rosaville City afterwards was to take revenge on us."

Clint understood at once and he replied, "No wonder we couldn't find any information about him. Monique really put in a lot of effort to disguise his identity so that he could come back for revenge."

Amos took a deep breath and said, "Alright, let's call it a day."

He had understood the situation clearly, but Naomi, his own daughter, had already been hurt. He felt depressed at the thought of that. He said to Clint, "You must be tired too. Go back! I'm going to see Naomi first."

"Yes, Mr. Granger!"

After saying that, Clint turned around and was about to leave.
