The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1763

"Do you think she can get away with it?" Erica sighed, "Jordon's been going around, blaming Regina for leading him astray and causing the death of his first wife. Then as the stepmother, Regina made life hell for him and his daughter Luna from his first wife, driving a wedge between them. Jordon says Regina's brought nothing but trouble... Regina was shook at first, tried to run, but couldn't. Jordon dragged her back, chained her up at home. I heard that the neighbors can hear her screams every day."

"What about her kids? Don't they do anything? Why don't they call the cops?" Paige asked, shocked.

"Hold your horses, we'll get to Randal Baldie and Jennifer in a bit. I heard they did call the cops, but when it's a domestic dispute, people can only mediate." Erica shook her head in resignation, "But, Regina found her way out."

"She's dead?" Paige asked, startled.

"Nope, the wicked never rest. She ain't gonna go down that easy. She got arrested, along with Jordon!" Erica chuckled, "Someone reported the illegal activities of this couple. Initially, the evidence was not very substantial, and at most, they would have received a sentence of up to three years. However, Regina was beaten severely, holding a deep hatred for Jordon. She voluntarily provided crucial facts and evidence. Now, Jordon cannot escape a life sentence.”

Paige concluded as she dug in, "What's that saying again, don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

Rosalynn had been quiet all along. She ate slowly, listening intently. She wasn't privy to the later developments.

"Now, about Randal and Jennifer." Erica took a big gulp of her iced cola, then continued, "Regina's scandal, being the other woman and causing the death of the first wife, it went viral, even trending on social media. You can bet everyone Randal and Jennifer know got wind of it. Randal had a girlfriend who'd been wanting to break up, and this just pushed her over the edge. She soon found someone new through a blind date. Randal didn't take it well, and the night Jordon and Regina got arrested, Randal bought a kitchen knife and stalked her."

"Holy cow!!" Paige gasped, covering her mouth.

Rosalynn also instinctively furrowed her brow, "Then what?"

"Her new boyfriend's a veteran with some serious connections, probably pretty capable too. He fought back and killed Randal on the spot."

"He's dead?" Paige was even more shocked.
