Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2239

"That’s right, Mister Ford Senior. Don't worry. We don't have any bad intentions at all. We only want to prove that we are not criminals," Ashnah said at once.

Abigail was the timidest. She trembled. " Mister Ford Senior, i-in the future, we'll be your relatives. Hahaha. Relatives..."

Seeing the Payne family embarrassing themselves like that, Sean was even more disdainful. No matter how he was in bad shape and how his sons disliked him, he still had the ability to crush the Payne family's imposing manners. Even if he did not get angry, his calm expression was enough to frighten the Payne sisters so much that they did not dare to make a sound. The Payne sisters smiled awkwardly.

It was indeed too awkward, so the eldest sister, Chloe, then looked at her father." Dad, why isn't. ..your calls going through? If you can't get through to Mister Lewis, who lived next door, then first give Vireo's teacher in middle school, Mister Wayne, a call. Aren't you quite close with Mister Wayne?"

Lucius was already so anxious that he was beaded with sweat all over his body. When his three daughters took turns fawning over Sean, Lucius already made phone calls. However, none of his calls were picked up. What was going on? Maybe one o r two of them did not have their phones with them, but could all five of them not have their phones at their sides? That was too much of a coincidence! Lucius had a sense of foreboding that things were not that simple. He was in such a panic that he dropped his phone on the ground.

At that moment, Sabrina came to Lucius' side. "Mister Payne, I'm guessing that there's an issue with your phone, right? If your phone doesn't work, I have a solution for you."

"Wh-what solution?" Lucius immediately asked.

Sabrina handed her phone to Lucius. "Use my phone to make the calls."

Lucius immediately snatched Sabrina's phone away from her hand. Then, the first thing he did was to give his neighbor, Lex Lewis, a call. As soon as the dial tone started, a familiar voice could be heard coming from the other end of the phone. " Who is this? It's not a local number. I don't know you. Why are you calling me?"

Lucius was extremely disappointed. It turned out that Lex's phone was with him. He simply deliberately did not pick up Lucius' call from earlier. Lucius wiped off the sweat on his head and said with a trembling voice, "Lex, it's me. I'm Lucius from next door..."

Lex, who was on the other end of the call, was speechless.

"Lex, we've been neighbors for a few decades. No matter what, you have to testify for me. I'm not asking you to make a false statement. I really am asking you to testify for me. You only have to tell the truth. This is about whether I had committed a crime or not. Lex, people often say that it’s better to look to your neighbors for help than a family who is far away." Lucius even had a catch in his throat as he spoke.

On the other end of the call, Lex’s voice was very deep and very serious as he said,"

Lucius, your entire family is really too much. You've ruined your son! You killed him, and you are still trying to leech off him now. I can't testify for you for anything else. The only thing that I can testify is that you did not go through the legal procedures to adopt your son back then! Not only that, but you had killed such a good child. His body was not even found!"

Lucius was speechless. Once again, he dropped the phone on the ground. It was fortunate that Sabrina's phone was not branded. It was not a good phone, but it was able to withstand the fall. Even if her phone was dropped on the ground, it was not broken. It was still able to work.

Sabrina picked up the phone from the ground and handed it to Lucius. "Do you want to continue?”

Lucius immediately called the second person, the third person, the tenth person, but all of the testimony was the same-the Payne family did not go through the legal adoption procedure and they even killed the son that they had adopted.

At that moment, the police came to Lucius and said very seriously, "I did not expect this, Could it be that a case that was unsolved for decades actually has a possible lead today?"
