How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 579 - 578
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.
Everyone looked at Peter Olsen in disbelief. ๐ป๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ธโฏ๐ท๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ฃโฏ๐.๐ค๐๐ฎ
Even Keira Olsen raised an eyebrow.
She had just been about to speak, and did not expect Peter Olsen to suddenly pipe up; well, letโs hear what this fifth brother has to say!
She turned her gaze towards Peter Olsen, feeling that he did seem to bring his brain today, which was good.
Susan Simpson looked at Peter Olsen, incredulously asking, "Peter, what are you talking about?"
Peter Olsen took a deep breath, his face grim as he stared at her and then slowly said, "Apologize to South Jenkins!"
Susan Simpson immediately exclaimed, "Peter! What are you talking about? That murderer, she poisoned Uncle James, why should I apologize!"
Peter Olsen chuckled bitterly, "Susan, do you really think weโre all fools? Would someone hire a poisoner after the fact? South Jenkins isnโt stupid, paying after โ what kind of logic is that? She seems so afraid of being found out, doesnโt she?!"
Susan Simpsonโs brow furrowed, "She was discovered yesterday, detained here; of course, she couldnโt have communicated with the other party! And with poisoning, she obviously wouldnโt pay until after the deed is done! What if she paid a deposit and then backed out?"
Peter Olsen laughed, "Exactly, I hire you to help poison someone, give you nothing upfront, just get you to work, and then, when the deed blows up, I know youโre in the Olsen Familyโs hands, yet I still transfer money to you, fearing there wonโt be any evidence left, right?"
Susan Simpson choked on her words but stubbornly retorted, "Maybe the person turned against her and wanted to expose the affair? Maybe they wanted her to take the fall?"
Peter Olsen looked at her, his eyes filled with disappointment, "How stupid must the other party be, Susan? If they hadnโt transferred the money, there would be no evidence. Do you realize this million can be traced back to its source?"
Susan Simpson paused, "Then perhaps itโs..."
"Enough!" Peter Olsen cut in, "I said enough!"
Susan Simpson immediately stopped, her eyes reddening as she turned to look at Peter Olsen, "Peter, I never thought you would choose to believe her over me! I truly came to interrogate her for Uncle Jamesโs sake! She even confessed just now!"
Susan Simpson pulled over the maid, Cathy, "Tell me, did she not confess just now? Why canโt you just believe it?"
Peter Olsen immediately turned to Cathy, and she, terrified, swallowed and said, fearfully, "Yes, yes..."
Peter Olsen said coldly, "Do you not know that perjury is illegal?"
Cathy jumped in fright, instinctively glancing at Susan Simpson.
Susan Simpson gave her a glare, and Cathy immediately spoke up, "Iโm not perjuring myself, Iโm telling the truth; South Jenkins did confess just now!"
Susan Simpson turned to Peter Olsen, "Peter, did you hear that? Weโre not lying, the liar is South Jenkins!"
Peter Olsen watched her and sighed deeply.
He suddenly said, "Susan, do you know why we were suspicious of South Jenkins last night but still treated her kindly and kept her in this room?"
Susan Simpson was surprised, "Why would that be? Surely because the Olsen Family is a virtuous household and doesnโt want to be harsh on servants?"
The Olsen Family, a virtuous household.
Keira Olsen wanted to laugh at that statement.
Ellis Olsen was Clanceโs well-known defiant figure, and such a person was virtuous?
And these few days since her return home, she had already noticed that although the Olsen family seemed smart, they each had their own skills, each one highly intelligent and accomplished in their respective fields. Like James Olsen in martial arts, like Charles Olsen attending the most prestigious university in Crera studying physics, and like Peter Olsen... well, perhaps he was a bit foolish.
She shook her head slightly and turned to look at Peter Olsen, her eyes filled with pity.
Peter Olsen obviously found this answer amusing too, "No matter how virtuous we are, we wouldnโt be so to a suspect who poisoned Uncle James. Susan, the reason we confined her here is firstly to avoid wrongful killing, and secondly, because there is surveillance in this room."
At that revelation, Susan Simpsonโs pupils contracted sharply, "What?! Thatโs impossible!"
She immediately surveyed her surroundings.
When she entered South Jenkinsโs guestroom earlier, she had already investigated the outside and saw no trace of surveillance cameras, and besides, this was the Olsen Familyโs guestroom, how could there possibly be surveillance?
Peter Olsen stated plainly, "Why do you think this guestroom hasnโt been occupied in a long time? The Olsen Family confines anyone who makes a mistake in this room to see what theyโll do overnight. Whether South Jenkins contacted anyone last night, the surveillance will have recorded it all clearly!"
He stepped forward and said directly, "The Olsen Family doesnโt randomly detain servants. Last night was just the Olsen Family testing South Jenkins to prove whether she had done wrong or not. If she had made any contact with the outside, even just a phone call or a message, it would all be visible in the surveillance. Do you really think we just locked her up overnight and did nothing?"
Susan Simpson swallowed.
She stepped back twice, "Peter, stop scaring me! How could there be surveillance in this room? Even if there is surveillance, Iโm not afraid, South Jenkins admitted it herself just now!"
Susan Simpsonโs reaction made Peter Olsen sigh heavily.
He realized she wouldnโt give up until she hit rock bottom.
Reluctantly, Peter Olsen had no choice but to drag Susan Simpson out of the bathroom, then pointed towards the mirror in the bedroom. Seeing Susan Simpson still not believing, he stepped forward and opened up the mirror, revealing the hidden surveillance camera, blinking with light!
Peter Olsen pointed at the camera, "Susan, do you see that? Do I even need to go to the surveillance room and pull up the footage to show you?!"
Susan Simpsonโs pupils shrank, and she stumbled back.
"How is that possible!"
