Chapter 1344: Chapter 1339: Harry Zachary’s Testimony
In the interrogation room, Hannah Hargrave refused to admit any connection to Sophie Foster’s car accident and denied knowing Zhou Qiang, insisting firmly that if the police didn’t believe her, they could bring Zhou Qiang over to identify him.
The matter of hiring a hitman had always been handled by Harry Zachary; she was merely the one providing the money, all to avoid involving herself.
It wasn’t until the police brought the witness before her that Hannah Hargrave realized she had been betrayed by Harry Zachary.
Looking at the stern-faced man in handcuffs opposite her, Hannah couldn’t believe it. Just last night, they were wrapped around each other in ecstasy, and now he had ruthlessly sold her out.
"Why?" Hannah’s face was filled with hurt.
She had been so good to him, offering him a high salary, buying him a car and house, and in the end, this was how he treated her.
"Because I don’t want to be someone else’s tool for venting!" This was Harry Zachary’s response to her.
Once, he had thought about winning her over with sincerity, but every time they were intimate, she would call out another man’s name.
Male creatures are inherently strong, and even without capability, they feel hostility towards their rivals.
Seeing her act coyly before Nicholas Croft while changing to a superior demeanor with him, he was a man with the pride a man should have, willing to betray moral conscience for her, only to be traded for her "keeping."
He had once hesitated and conflicted, but when that check was placed before him, he suddenly felt justified.
It was like a heavy stone settling; since it was a money transaction, there was no need to discuss feelings.
Hannah Hargrave was officially detained, and before the police filed charges, she was not allowed to meet with a lawyer. Artists in the company upon receiving the news requested termination of their contracts, with most jumping ship to Nicholas Croft’s company.
Josephine Hawthorne, though shrewd, lacked business acumen, especially after such a scandal, cowering at home, too scared to go out.
She tried disguising herself along with a nanny to go out once, only to be recognized by a reporter who appeared from nowhere, instantly surrounded by a crowd pointing fingers, and it was only after the nanny called the police that she could escape.
In the Hargrave family’s villa, Josephine sat on the sofa, crying about how old contacts were now not even answering her calls, and she couldn’t find any way to help her daughter.
"You deadbeat! Your daughter is in trouble, yet you sit at home. Aren’t you quite capable? Why aren’t you saving Hannah..."
Josephine cried while twisting Henry Hargrave’s arm. He stared blankly at her, having seemingly lost his facial expressions ever since discovering her affair with Harry Zachary.
Hannah Hargrave was troubled, the company’s investments had also encountered issues, several partners sued her in court, demanding compensation for their losses.
Phoenix Entertainment Ltd’s legal representative is under Henry Hargrave’s name. After the court froze the company’s accounts, it followed by freezing all of Henry Hargrave’s assets, bank accounts, real estate, and the villa Josephine currently resides in.
Law enforcement officers came to the Hargrave family, notifying her to move out within a month to auction the villa to compensate the creditors’ losses.
After the officers left, Josephine sat on the sofa sobbing, while cursing Henry Hargrave. Upon hearing the villa was to be auctioned, the household maids packed up their belongings and gradually left.
For a moment, the large villa was left with just Josephine and Henry Hargrave.
