I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away
Chapter 348: Full Confession

Fiona was truly famished, her spirit unsettled by Meredith's recent words, leaving her feeling utterly drained. As she reached out to take the bowl offered to her, a sudden thought struck her, prompting her to hastily retract her hand, "I'm not hungry, I won't eat." Seeing Fiona was not fooled, the prison guard, flushed with anger, threw the bowl to the ground. "If that's your decision," he said coldly.

Then, he pulled a knife from his pocket. The blade gleamed under the reflection of the light from outside the window, casting a bright reflection across Fiona's face. A trace of fear flashed over her features as she scrambled to her feet, looking for an escape in the confines of the detention center. "Help! Is anyone there? Help, someone is trying to kill me!"

No matter how loud Fiona shouted, no one came to help. The guard sneered, "Don't bother wasting your energy. Even if you scream your lungs out, it won't help. I thought to grant you a dignified death, not too painful, but you just don't know what's good for you."

He advanced towards Fiona step by step. Fiona, gripping the iron bars, was overwhelmed with terror. "Did Joy Chaucer send you? I didn't betray her, why won't she let me go?"

"Miss Chaucer said, only the dead keep secrets," the guard raised his knife to strike Fiona.

"Ah! Help me!" Fiona screamed, closing her eyes in fright.

At that critical moment, Liam Michaelson burst in, kicking the guard away and seizing the knife, saving Fiona and knocking the guard unconscious.

Everything happened swiftly. Fiona's legs went weak, and she slumped to the ground, staring blankly ahead. The unconscious guard was quickly carried out by others.

Liam Michaelson, picking up the knife that had fallen to the ground, looked down at Fiona authoritatively. "It seems the case is not simple. Someone wants you dead, reaching as far into this place. Fiona, speak up, are there any accomplices? If you don't talk, you're just missing a chance to lessen your punishment."

Fiona, still dazed from the shock, did not respond immediately. Meanwhile, a small mouse scurried out from somewhere, ate the spilled food on the floor, and immediately fell dead, foaming at the mouth and bleeding from the eyes. Fiona, horrified, realized she would have died had she eaten the food.

Liam Michaelson continued, "It seems you still don't want to talk. Well, there's nothing I can do. We police do not torture for confessions, and there's still time before the trial. I hope you live to see that day."

As Liam Michaelson turned to leave, Fiona quickly called out to him, "I'll talk, I'll tell you everything."

Terrified by the thought of Joy Chaucer's far-reaching influence, Fiona resolved to expose everything. Liam Michaelson, satisfied, hooked his lip and took Fiona immediately for interrogation. Ten minutes later.

Liam Michaelson personally recorded Fiona's statement: "Fiona, where did you buy the abortion drugs you hid in the baby formula can?"

Fiona confessed everything: "It was given to me by Joy Chaucer."

"How did you two meet?" Liam Michaelson asked sternly. "One a wealthy heiress and the other an ordinary factory worker. Why did she give you the drugs, and who were your target? "

Fiona replied, "I met Joy Chaucer on the day Meredith's restaurant opened. She approached me because we both hated Meredith, and it was an instant agreement between us to make Meredith miscarry, to harm the child in her belly. If Meredith lost the child, Terrence Sterling would leave her..."

Liam Michaelson continued writing as he questioned, "How can you prove the drugs were from Joy Chaucer?"

"I have a recording," Fiona exclaimed excitedly. "I didn't trust Joy Chaucer. When she gave me the drugs, I was cautious and recorded it. The recording is on my phone, you can retrieve it."
