Besides, this girl is Adrian's first love.
Even though she once despised Adrian for having no money and unhesitatingly left him to marry a local rich second generation, Adrian still couldn't let her go.
When Adrian and I arrived, Ace was covered in blood, trembling in the corner.
She looked up, tears in her eyes, looking at Adrian.
"Adrian."
Adrian pretended to be calm on the surface, but didn't notice he was holding my hand tighter.
"Adrian, three years ago, I didn't want to marry him, but my mother was sick. At that time, you didn't have much money, I didn't want to drag you down, so I chose to marry him. The person I love has always been you."
Fu Jinyan could no longer control his emotions. He hurriedly shook off my hand and completely ignored me as I staggered back a few steps, hitting the corner of the table with my elbow joint.
Adrian believed such a lame excuse without hesitation.
He draped his coat over Ace, who was shivering, and said softly,
"You've had a hard time all these years, Ace."
Ace leaned her head against Adrian's chest, crying, and gently tugged at Adrian's shirt collar.
"Unfortunately, you're getting married, and I have to go to jail. We are destined to miss each other."
"No, I have a way." Adrian gently comforted her, his tone full of responsibility and care, completely forgetting that I was his fiancée.
I curled my still aching arm and glanced at Adrian.
"Ms. Garden, you killed someone, but there are extenuating circumstances. Adrian and I will find the best lawyer for you to seek a reduced sentence. We will also take care of your family."
This sentence took all my strength.
I was gambling, betting on whether Adrian would choose me or Ace.
But I didn't wait for Ace's answer, only heard Adrian's voice.
"Emma, you said that you would do anything I asked you to."
He lifted his head to look at me. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness and coldness that I had never seen before.
"Ace is in poor health, and you have an alibi. You go to prison for Ace."
Adrian ignored my pleas and cries, firmly holding my hand, leaving my fingerprints on the murder weapon, and threatened me with my family to change my testimony.
In the end, I lost to Ace. As long as she appeared, I would always lose.
Adrian and Ace, hand in hand, appeared in the villa's living room. Ace had exquisite makeup and was dressed elegantly, forming a sharp contrast with my disheveled appearance.
