She looked at the cop beside her vacantly. “Can I talk to him for a bit, officer?”

“Yes, but you have to confess to your crimes. Denial won’t do your sentence any good.” The

Xavien got a chair for Sean, who sat down and looked at Joan coldly, saying nothing.

“When you came to my place that day and used Snakey’s photo to force an answer out of me, you knew how you were going to take me down, didn’t you?” She looked at the man with hate. That day, he showed her a photo of Snakey on his phone and asked if she knew that

guy.

A few days before he showed her that photo, she was in contact with Snakey, coming up with a plan to use Lina to gain his trust. Joan did not admit it, but she told him she could find a way if he wanted to get in touch with Snakey.

“I wasn’t trying to take you down. You were blinded by your greed. If you’d taken Jimmy’s side, I’d never have found him easily.” He looked at her coldly.

“So,

you

showed me that photo because you wanted me to walk into the trap.” Joan smiled. Sean tossed a smokescreen into the battlefield, and she let her guard down. The moment she told him. she could hook him up with Snakey, she had fallen into his trap. Similarly, Snakey had been dragged into it since then as well.

“After your imprisonment, try to remember everything Kingston has done for you. Get better. You and your brother are at least 100 years too early to fight me.” Sean stood up.

Joan cried and screeched, her scream hysterical.

He stood at the doorway and looked at her for a while. Once she calmed down, he added, “Back in high school, I took you and your brother as close friends. When he tripped over in the working world, I wanted to help you guys get on your feet. But kindness often begets betrayal in return. My kindness gave birth to their evil.

Sean did reflect on how things turned out this way, but the Palmer siblings made him realize what kindness begets betrayal’ meant. His unlimited giving to Joan eventually backfired on him.

When she looked at him, she only saw his back as he was gone a moment later. She fell from the bed and crawled toward the door, crying. “Sean, please, I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Don’t leave me! I promise I won’t ruin your relationship anymore! I’ll tell Abigail everything! Please, don’t leave!”

She did not get too far, for the pain made her black out for a moment, and she almost fainted.

When the cops came in, she was bawling her eyes out.

On the day of the hearing, Kingston confessed to his crimes before his lawyer could say a thing. He even told them about what he did in the past.

Abigail was in the plaintiff’s seat, staring at him in surprise. Her lawyer was shocked as well. He had a stack of documents prepared, but there was no use for them anymore.

In the end, Kingston was sentenced to ten years of jail time. When Abigail came out of the court, she was a little dazed. Her lawyer smiled awkwardly. “Didn’t think it’d go that smoothly.” They were prepared for the battle, but Kingston confessed immediately.

“Yeah. Thanks for all the work you did for me over these months. I’ll give you the payment as promised. She turned around and smiled at her lawyer.

The lawyer smiled, nodding. “Pleasure doing business with you, Ms. Quinn.”

“Pleasure.” She shook his hand.

A few days after Kingston’s trial was over, Pendorf’s authority announced Joan’s verdict. She was sentenced to three years in prison for a case of kidnapping. Since she was a has-been, her verdict went viral.

Abigail was immersed in her work, so she did not notice it. Her neck was sore when she was done. with work for the day, so she asked Luna, who had just returned from a business trip, to get a massage at the massage parlor together.

While enjoying the massage, Luna said, “Hey, do you know that Joan and her brother are both jailed?”

Abigail was almost falling asleep from how great the massage felt when she widened her eyes. “What?” It had been a while since she heard any news about Joan.

“She’s sentenced to jail. Sean chucked her in himself. I couldn’t get the details, though.” Luna looked at Abigail, shocked.

Abigail was stunned as well. First, Kingston confessed to his crimes. Then, Joan was sentenced to jail. Both her biggest enemies had fallen, and Abigail thought she should finally rest.

Luna turned around and looked at her, eyes sparkling. “Honestly, how’d he find it in him to chuck her into prison? I thought she was his beloved.”

“Maybe she did something that angered him too much,” said Abigail. No matter the reason, it was good for her that the Palmer siblings were jailed. Half of her grandmother’s safety problems were

solved now.

Luna turned back again and sighed. “Never make an enemy out of Sean. Everyone who does did not end well.”

Abigail grunted in agreement, then remembered the call he made back then. Does that mean he had an actual falling out with the Palmer siblings?
