You Are The Apple of My Eyes
Chapter 604 Convicted With Multiple Crimes

At Lexingport City's police station

Vivian's expression dulled as she wondered how the police caught her so easily.

It seemed as if the people she trusted all betrayed her and set a trap for her to walk right into.

First, Mr. Yuan was actually Noah. Then, the police knew her escape route.

'Was it Tim who betrayed me?

No way!

If Tim betrayed me, half of his clubs would be closed by the government. His losses would be a lot more than just a few million dollars.'

Knowing that Tim was a selfish man, Vivian thought that he could not have done something that would put him at a loss.

However, she could not think of anyone else who could have done it.

As she sat in the interrogation room, Vivian kept wiping her sweaty palms, feeling nervous.

She heard someone push the room door open and enter the room. Noah was standing outside the room with the others, watching her. Vivian began frantically explaining, "Ma'am, I think you've misunderstood. I haven't smuggled any drugs and I know nothing."

"All right." With a frown, the policewoman pulled up a chair and sat across Vivian. "I am with neither the anti-narcotics department nor the criminal investigation department."

"What do you mean?" Vivian asked with an awkward smile, clenching her fists.

The policeman who was recording the interrogation session spoke. "She is from the economic crime investigation department."

Vivian looked at her with confusion as she gulped hard. She tried her best not to seem anxious as that would give her away.

"I don't understand. What is this about?" she asked.

Since the policewoman had seen criminals who were unwilling to admit their crimes, she did not lose her calm. Instead, she calmly reminded her, "Vivian, you should cooperate with us. We have testimony as well as solid evidence that could prove that you are a drug dealer. Now, there's no way for you to escape, so why don't you cooperate with us? Tell us about how you embezzled funds from the Ye Group and got people to cover it with false accounts. Once you're done explaining that to me, the criminal investigator will be taking over."

"What the hell do you mean? Don't make any accusations without proof!" Vivian roared as she slammed her fists on the desk.

Although she seemed aggressive, her face paled from the fear and her hands could not stop trembling.

Noah could not bear to watch it anymore, so he walked to the staircase to have a smoke. He stood there for a while, lost in thought.

He kept smoking one cigarette after the other until the floor under his feet was filled with the cigarette butts.

Rayden walked to him with a glass of warm water in his hand and said, "Captain Ye, it's not good for you to smoke that much. Here, please have some water. It will help soothe your throat."

Noah glanced at Rayden and took a sip of the water after he threw the cigarette butt into the cup, extinguishing it.

"How's the interrogation going?" Noah asked.

"Regardless of their questioning, she was unwilling to admit anything. The evidence that your brother collected cannot be used unless we find the person who was responsible for creating those false accounts for her," Rayden replied as he stared out of the window, looking at the skyscrapers in front of them.

A frown appeared on Noah's face as he asked, "Did that person escape from us?"

"Yes." That moment, Rayden received a phone call. His expression darkened.

Just when Noah was about to ask him if something had gone wrong, Rayden turned around and gave him a smile.

"We have evidence, Captain Ye. Someone has sent us the evidence. Let's go check it out."

Soon, they heard Vivian's loud roar. "Jennifer, how could you betray me? Don't you remember that I was the one who saved you? If it weren't for me, you'd still be stuck in that mental hospital, screaming your lungs out. How could you dare to betray me, the one who saved your life?"

Vivian was so furious that she wanted to pounce on Jennifer Fang and scratch her face. She had already kicked her twice and the policemen were having a hard time keeping her restrained.

Vivian spat on her face, and Jennifer did not even move away. She stood there fearlessly as she lowered her head and said, "I can't let you bankrupt the Ye Group. He will be disappointed with me." "Jennifer, you fucking bitch! Why do you care about a man who's already dead? If it hadn't been for my help, you would be, too! How could you bite me in the ass when I was the only one who helped you?" Vivian's high-pitched voice shook the interrogation room. Her eyes were red with rage as she yelled at Jennifer.

"I'm sorry." After apologizing to her, Jennifer cast a glance at Noah before she looked away.

Rayden found that to be strange, so he asked, "Captain Ye, do you know her?"

"No, I don't," Noah replied flatly. In fact, he had never even met her before. However, her expression made him feel uncomfortable, as though he had seen her before. Vivian stopped cursing once Jennifer walked out of the room.

Once the economic crime investigation department was done with their investigation, they handed Vivian over to Rayden, who was there on behalf of the criminal investigation department.

Noah set up a trap for her. Then, Jennifer betrayed her too. Vivian was so scared that she could not even move.

She started considering ways to escape the law. Who could help her?

Her mind was a mess. She was sure that she would be convicted, if she sat there, doing nothing.

'Will I get a few years or life imprisonment?

How many years is it going to be? Two years or maybe five years, perhaps? Or will I have to do fifteen years?'

Thinking of that, Vivian trembled. She could neither think of a way out, nor was she able to find someone who could stop all that from happening.

She was already tense, but Noah's words completely broke her as he said, "Let's interrogate her after Henry brings our father here."

Vivian lifted her head and asked in shock, "What? Why? Why is he coming? What does this have to do with Dad? Why does he have to come over?"

Hearing that, Noah, who had always refrained himself from expressing his anger, slapped her and roared, "Do you really think that the most dangerous place is the safest? Vivian, do you really think that we know nothing?"

Suddenly, the entire police station became as silent as a grave.

They had never seen Noah so furious. Even when he would be dealing with some of the most vicious criminals, he had never lost his cool. They had always seen him be calm and composed.

He had always been gentle to others, and not just his own family, so they were shocked when they saw him slap Vivian.

After the slap, Noah's palm was still trembling slightly, and he felt so disappointed at Vivian.

Stunned, Vivian kept her hand over her cheek. Her ear was ringing and her cheek turned red.

Once she was calmer, she looked at him, her eyes filled with hatred. "So you knew where he was all along, right?"

Meanwhile, Henry helped his father, Howard, get out of the basement. He was pale and skinny, after being kept there for four years.

Although he was wearing a nice suit, Howard still looked pitifully thin. He put forth all his strength and slapped Vivian, who crumpled to the floor.

"What an ungrateful daughter!" Howard roared in a shaky voice, which left him out of breath.

Vivian was on the floor, laughing maniacally as she looked at them.

"You're calling me ungrateful? What about your sons?" Tears flowed down her cheeks as she pointed at Noah and Henry. "Your two good sons knew well that you were locked in the basement, but they never saved you."

Noah and Henry frowned, but they did not react to her, which only made Vivian laugh more loudly.

"The only reason they did not save you until today was because they wanted me to be convicted for multiple crimes. You are such a loser. You still don't get it that no one loves you."
