The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife

Chapter 1372 Dead End 7

He handed one of the glasses to Doris. “Have a glass of warm water to warm yourself up.”

As Doris reached out to take it, she could not help but sigh softly. Soon, a mocking smile flashed across her pale face. “Who would have thought that I, Doris, of the royal bloodline, who should have been...would fall to this stage too?”

“Miss, perhaps things will take a turn for the better!” Glenn did not know how he should console her either. At this point, if they could escape safely, they would already be very fortunate.

Doris shook her head and laughed coldly. “Take a turn for the better? If things hadn’t gone wrong on Alex’s end, this could all still have been possible. Now, there’s no counting on them anymore. There’s no way my father will help intervene in this. Right now, I truly understand what it means to be up the creek without a paddle.”

“Mu Yuchen’s too cruel. He must’ve long known about your relationship with Mr. Alex. That’s why he’s taken this chance to outwit you! And the news of Zhou Zimo getting detained must’ve been fake. They did it on purpose! I remember that previously Su Chen and the Zhou family went over to New York for Zhou Zimo’s matter.”

At this point, Glenn was speaking through gritted teeth. “And the lockdown operation must’ve been Su Chen’s idea too. Shasha was too nice when she tried to give that woman a lesson! If it were me, I wouldn’t have let them off so easily!”

Glenn was beginning to lean towards the extreme now. After having experienced grace from Doris, he felt sorry for her. He was very loyal. If not, he probably would have run off by now based on the state of things.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. How are things outside?” Doris lowered her head to take a sip and asked in a lowered voice.

“I just got the news that the traffic police have suddenly been inspecting cars at every intersection. I think there’s no way for us to leave now. They must’ve expected for us to still be hiding in City Z, thus they’re inspecting so strictly. Also, I’m afraid it’s impossible for us to escape abroad by flight. Mr. Alex might have been able to arrange something for us, but now, clearly, that’s not possible anymore.”

Glenn spoke gloomily, “One more thing, Miss, that witch, Lin Ling Er’s missing. I’ve checked the airline company to see that she’s returned to City Z. Previously, we found out that there was a private detective looking into the incident from six years ago. Mr. Alex said to just leave the matter to him, but now...”

Upon hearing that, Doris was shocked. She fell silent for a moment, then she laughed and said, “Six years ago! The fact that they could investigate Mu Lingtian’s death to this extent is quite amazing! What a huge roundabout and what meticulous planning! Apart from Lingsha being involved, the whole plan was actually perfect. Mu Tangchuan investigated it many times too. Why weren’t they willing to just give up?”

“Mu Yuchen has always blamed himself for Mu Lingtian’s death. Perhaps he just wants to find an excuse for him to truly be relieved. Miss, if they get the evidence on this, then it’ll be tough for us.”

“All of the evidence from years ago has been wiped clean. They can’t convict us just with one-sided claims from the car repair factory people, can they?” Doris smiled in disdain. She was not worried about this incident being exposed. After all, it had been investigated for more than six years now, so she did not think that they could truly find anything out now. It had been so long, and most of the evidence was also worn down by time.

What she was worried about now was that Mu Lingmo and Qi Lei were back, and the evidence they gathered in New York would make her fall into a quandary...

“Miss, we can’t underestimate them. In fact, I’ve found out who Mu Yuchen’s private detective is. It’s a very experienced private detective in City Z. Back then, he investigated the matter of Gu Qiwu and Mu Zixi, and Qi Qiming’s thing too. Otherwise, Mu Yuchen wouldn’t have settled all these relationships so quickly. I suspect that he must have gotten ahold of some evidence...”

“No way! Didn’t you say that all the evidence was wiped out back then? How could it be? They’ve investigated for six years and they couldn’t find out anyway. How could you say such things to me at a key time like this, Glenn?!”

When Doris heard the possibility of her incrimination, she frowned immediately and could not help but raise her voice. Her hand that held onto the cup suddenly tightened!

“This time, perhaps they have really got ahold of something. Otherwise, that witch Lin Ling Er wouldn’t have left England.” Acknowledging this made Glenn feel extremely uneasy, but he had to explain his speculations to Doris. That way, they could also be mentally prepared.

“No way...no way...” Doris’ face turned even paler now as she fell backward on the sofa, stunned. Tthe glass in her hand fell to the ground, and it turned into shattered pieces as the water spilled all over.

Her fingers combed through her messy blonde hair while her blue eyes became dazed with uneasiness. Her tone could not hide her anxiety either. “If that’s true, then...what’s the meaning of all that I’ve done? What’s the point? I didn’t get anything, and I even pushed myself to this dreaded state...”

“Miss, don’t give up or feel discouraged. I’ll call the other end now and inform Miss Shasha. I’m sure they’ll think of a way to help you, Miss. Don’t worry.”

Even though Glenn felt slightly disarrayed and afraid, he could still try to control the turmoil he felt right now.

Doris’s expression was gloomy and miserable. She silently looked at her opened hands. After a while, she closed them and said softly, “I really didn’t think that I’d see this day! How’s Gu Qiwu’s situation right now?”

“Miss, Gu Qiwu’s still detained at the police station at the moment, but recently his lawyer’s been going back and forth the police station and Glory World Corporation. I think that Gu Qiwu should be asking Mu Yuchen for help. Otherwise, knowing him, he wouldn’t agree to let Mu Lingshi inherit Hui Gu so easily,” Glenn answered.

Upon hearing that, Doris sighed deeply and slowly closed her eyes. After a while, she opened them, and those blue eyes that had panicked earlier now hid it all. Her alarm was replaced with a reservedness and indifference. “Hand Hui Gu to Mu Lingshi? He’ll have to ask if I agree to it first. If I can’t have it, he can’t give it away so easily. If he wants to do that, it can only be Shasha. Either the fish dies or the net splits at most [1]. That way, at least, I can protect Shasha’s status over there. Isn’t that what my father cares about?”
