This low and deep voice suddenly echoed, plunging the entire room into silence!
"It's the boss's voice!"
Excitement appeared on Nie Lei's face, as if a heavy burden had been lifted!
Stephens also frowned. How could he be unfamiliar with Lin Fan's voice? His gaze quickly swept around the room, but there was no sign of Lin Fan!
Where could he be?
This was the question on everyone's mind.
However, only Madam Jenny's face suddenly darkened upon hearing Lin Fan's voice, her gloomy eyes fixed on those two rows of bookshelves!
As expected~
Rustle~
With a sound, those neatly arranged bookshelves opened slowly like sliding doors, revealing a doorway to everyone's surprise, attracting all eyes and shocking everyone that such a hidden place existed in Madam Jenny's room!
Standing at the doorway were none other than Lin Fan and Dai Mo!
"Dai Mo… it's Dai Mo, my daughter!"
Seeing Dai Mo, Madam Deve's tears burst forth immediately; ever since Dai Mo disappeared, Madam Deve had been crying every day, and she rushed excitedly towards Dai Mo!
"Mother..."
Seeing Madam Deve at that moment, Dai Mo could no longer hold back the grievances she had suffered these past days, her beautiful eyes misted over, and crystalline tears rolled down her cheeks.
The mother and daughter immediately embraced each other, sobbing quietly!
Seeing this scene, Stephens was immediately filled with anger, turning his sharp gaze towards Madam Jenny and demanding, "What is going on here? You must explain this clearly today!"
"I… I..."
For a moment, Madam Jenny was at a loss for words!
"Hmph! If you don't give me a reasonable explanation today, this matter will not end!"
After Stephens snorted coldly, he immediately ordered the guards, "Go down and search for me immediately!"
"Understood!"
A group of guards nodded and rushed into the cellar quickly!
Watching the guards storm the cellar, Madam Jenny seemed sapped of all her strength, collapsing onto the floor with a face full of panic!
Regarding this, Lin Fan only gave a faint smile, not going to console her. Those who do wrong must pay the price for their actions!
Then, Lin Fan walked over to Nie Lei and Lin Bai, asking, "Are you two okay?"
"Boss, had you come out any later, we might have been in real trouble!" Nie Lei laughed heartily, making a joke instead of blaming anyone!
Lin Fan patted Nie Lei on the shoulder and exchanged a look with Lin Bai, everything unspoken yet understood!
Afterward, Lin Fan walked up to Stephens and said, "Your Majesty, everything is clear now. Madam Jenny kidnapped Dai Mo, attempting to usurp power. Dai Mo has suffered so much; I think you should stand up for her!"
"Hmph! Dai Mo is my daughter, and as her father, I must stand up for my daughter!"
Stephens stared coldly at Madam Jenny, saying, "Jenny, I am giving you one last chance to tell me everything. For the sake of our marriage, I can be lenient with you, perhaps just confine you to the Celestial Prison for reflection. Otherwise… you will face the royal family's greatest crime, execution on the spot!"
"Your Majesty! We are husband and wife; you must trust me. I never kidnapped Dai Mo!" Madam Jenny hurriedly knelt in front of Stephens, her face full of grievance.
Seeing this, Lin Fan couldn't help but sneer; Madam Jenny really had a thick skin to still not confess at this point!
Lin Fan sneered and said, "Then how do you explain this cellar?"
"I dug it to store things, can't I?" Madam Jenny gritted her teeth and said.
"Oh? In that case, why was Dai Mo imprisoned in your cellar?" Lin Fan said with amusement, smiling lightly at Madam Jenny.
"Hmph! Who knows why? I even suspect you're plotting to frame me! Your Majesty, you must believe me, I really didn't kidnap Dai Mo; it must be them conspiring to frame me!" Madam Jenny hurriedly said with a sobbing tone!
"Madam Jenny, I didn't expect you to have the nerve to say such things in front of me,"
Dai Mo scolded coldly and immediately said to Stephens, "Father, I was indeed kidnapped by Madam Jenny these past days. If there's even a shred of falsehood in my words, I'm willing to stake my life!"
"Hmph! You all conspire, and everything you say aligns! Your Majesty, they want to use this to suppress me and Mcdonaldson so that we can't survive in the royal family. Dai Mo, you have a really vicious heart! Unless an observer testifies, you're just slandering!" Madam Jenny still insisted!
Hearing this, Stephens frowned. Although he knew Madam Jenny was being stubborn, her words left Stephens in a difficult position; enforcing punishment on Madam Jenny might not convince everyone!
"I wonder if I could be a witness?"
Just then, a voice with a tinge of age rang from behind Stephens!
Shush Shush Shush~
Instantly, all eyes turned towards the speaker!
However, upon hearing that familiar voice, Madam Jenny couldn't help but tremble, hurriedly looking up, her face freezing in shock!
The one who stepped forward was none other than Lawson, the man she had an affair with and the one she trusted the most!
"You... you..."
Madam Jenny was almost speechless with anger, unable to imagine that the man she trusted most would ultimately betray her!
"Sorry Jenny, blame it on... you making mistakes again and again, having incurred divine wrath!"
Lawson apologized with a smile, turning to Stephens and saying, "Your Majesty, Mr. Tyrant and Princess Dai Mo are right; Princess Dai Mo was indeed kidnapped by Madam Jenny. Just a few days ago, she even invited me to the cellar, and I personally saw Princess Dai Mo imprisoned there!"
"How did you know?" Stephens frowned, looking at Lawson!
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I hid it from you before. I am willing to bear the consequences!" Lawson finished, bowing his head, looking like he was ready to accept punishment!
Stephens was no fool and could see clearly that the relationship between Lawson and Madam Jenny wasn't simple. His finger trembled as he pointed at Lawson, unable to speak for a long time, truly too angry to find the words!
One was his wife, the other his right-hand man, and he never expected them to betray him for power. Stephens felt both furious and desolate!
