Ye Heng sneered and did not speak. He clearly saw through Zhao Lan’s thoughts and was unwilling to talk to her.
At this moment, a group of people walked out of the living room. The butler was guiding them.
“This way, please.”
Ye Heng had already instructed that if anyone from the Metaphysics Management Office came, they could be let in immediately.
The person in the lead was Ruan Dong, his expression cold.
A group of people walked in, including Yu Su. She was a staff member of the Metaphysics Management Office who had participated in the case and provided crucial evidence.
Everyone in the living room looked over.
Zhao Lan was shocked, not knowing what had happened.
Ye Heng stood up and said to Ruan Dong, “Minister Ruan, you’re here.”
Ruan Dong nodded and took out his credentials from the Metaphysics Management Office. He gestured to the person in the living room. “This is my credentials. I’m here to arrest the mastermind behind a major case.”
“After a few days of interrogation, Black Magic Master Wu Zhen has confessed, we have also obtained evidence of the mastermind’s crimes, we are here to arrest her!”
Zhao Lan’s forehead was covered in sweat. All kinds of thoughts surged in her mind.
Could he be here to catch her? That person had clearly told her that Wu Zhen’s matter would not implicate her, so she could stay in the Ye family in peace.
How could this be!
Ruan Dong looked at Zhao Lan with a cold gaze. “Mrs. Ye, please come with me!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the strings in Zhao Lan’s heart immediately collapsed. Her face turned pale, and her face was filled with shock. He actually found her?
What should she do!
Zhao Lan seemed to be grabbing onto a life-saving straw. She quickly reached out and grabbed Ye Heng’s sleeve. She said in panic, “Hubby, I didn’t do anything. They’re spouting nonsense. You have to help me. How can I be taken away? I’m Mrs. Ye!”
If she was really captured, she would become the laughing stock of the entire circle of noblewomen.
Even if she was released in the future, her life would be tainted. All her efforts to squeeze into the circle of noblewomen in the past would be in vain.
She was Mrs. Ye, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ye family!
She also wanted to revitalize the Zhao family and bring them into the circle of rich people.
At this moment, Zhao Lan felt that her dream was about to shatter.
Ye Heng was expressionless as he said slowly, “You have to accept punishment for breaking the law. Moreover, there’s already evidence now. If you’re innocent, the Metaphysics Management Office will naturally let you out.”
If she was guilty, the Metaphysics Management Office would not let her off easily.
He hoped that the Metaphysics Management Office could give her a heavy sentence to make up for the pain and depression he had suffered all these years.
“I’m innocent. I’m really innocent. Hubby, you have to believe me. I didn’t do anything…” Zhao Lan grabbed Ye Heng’s sleeve tightly and kept saying. Her expression was close to madness.
She could not be taken away!
Ye Heng pulled his sleeve away and his eyes were cold. “Do you really think I’m a fool? Don’t you know whether you did it or not? Stop acting.”
The shock in Zhao Lan’s heart almost materialized.
She had never expected her husband’s gaze to turn so cold. He looked at her as if she was his enemy.
Zhao Lan continued to shout crazily, “Hubby, we’ve been husband and wife for so many years. I even gave birth to Ye Chang for you. Are you really not going to care about our relationship at all?”
When did Ye Heng become so heartless?
If Ye Heng did not express his stance, she might really be captured.
If Ye Heng could protect her with all his might, it would definitely be difficult for the people from the Metaphysics Management Office to do so. Due to the Ye family’s status, they would also delay arresting her.
That would be her chance to escape.
Ye Heng sneered. “Relationship? Don’t you think it’s ridiculous that you’re talking about our relationship with me? All these years, you’ve been the eldest madam of the Ye family on the surface, but in fact, you’ve hung out with the adulterer many times and even had a son with that person. In order to let your eldest son have a better life, you deliberately adopted him and placed him under my watch.”
“When it comes to ruthlessness, you’re crueler than anyone.”
He had suffered this humiliation for decades.
Zhao Lan’s heart skipped a beat, and her face was filled with panic. “What adulterer? I don’t understand. Did you believe someone else’s nonsense? Is Yu Su spouting nonsense? Watch me tear her mouth apart!”
As she spoke, she glared fiercely at Yu Su.
Zhao Lan had always felt that Ye Heng was not smart. He had only become the CEO of the Ye family because of his good family background.
Ye Heng suddenly knew about her relationship with that person. He definitely did not discover it himself. Someone must have sensed something and told him..
