Chapter 111 Don't Risk Your Life Next Time
"Mr. Williams, thanks."
"It's my pleasure to help a lovely idea." The corners of Rhys' eyes rose slightly and a flirtatious smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
He then turned to Stefan with a meaningful look.
"Mr. Harrison, it's awful to look at you like this now."
"It's better than you coming late."
Stefan took a cold glance at Rhys and replied pointedly.
Seeing that Stefan and Rhys were bickering again, Martha slightly frowned.
She found that they would become so childish when they were together.
She just get out of there with Jane, but as she turned around, she remembered something and said to Stefan, "Mr. Harrison, your arm is broken. You should get it checked." After all, he got hurt because of her. Without timely treatment, his arm might be permanently injured, and she would be to blame for it.
After saying those words, Martha turned and left without waiting for his reply.
She didn't want to see Stefan and Rhys bickering in the morning, so she went here for the inspection with Jane early.
But now...
Well, it seemed like a part she couldn't get away with.
After half an hour, they returned to the villa.
Martha was exhausted and just wanted to take a shower in her room.
On the way back, Jane told her what had happened after she was kidnapped.
It sounded... quite interesting.
Kidnapping the wrong person?
Martha didn't expect this stupid mistake to be made.
But things got complicated again now that Joann had died. And the project they had been working on might be ruined.
After a while, Martha heard someone knocking when she got out of the bathroom.
After she was dressed, she opened the door to her room and saw Rhys standing in the doorway with a first-aid kit in his hand. He waved the kit at her, "I guess you got hurt, too. I'm here to bring you the kit."
"Thank you."
Martha directly took away the first-aid kit he brought and was about to close the door.
But unexpectedly, Rhys moved faster than her and put his arm at the side of the door to stop her.
Martha frowned as she knew that Rhys wouldn't quit that easily.
"Mr. Williams, you want something?"
"Don't you wanna know how's Stefan doing right now?"
Rhys' good-looking eyebrows were slightly raised and there was a frivolous smile in his narrow long eyes.
Martha pressed her red lips and asked impassively, "How is he?"
"He's doing okay. Minor fracture. Nothing serious."
There was a bigger smile on his face, as if he had expected her to ask this.
Martha ignored his frivolity and said in a businesslike tone, "Mr. Williams, if there's nothing else, I'm gonna go take a rest."
"I'm afraid you can't." Martha was confused by what he had just said.
Rhys said with a smile, "The police are here. They're waiting for you downstairs."
Martha's face darkened. After all, someone had died and she knew what the police would ask her.
Without overthinking it, she put the first-aid kit in her room and went downstairs to the lobby of the villa with him.
Everyone was there when she went down.
One of the police officers walked forward and asked at the sight of Martha, "Are you Martha?" "Yes, I am."
Martha responded indifferently, saying nothing more.
The officer asked her with a serious face and she told them everything she knew.
Others did the same. They all looked at each other when the officer was taking notes.
In the end, the police officer looked at Jane with a sullen face and asked seriously, "Did you see Joann killing herself?"
"No... I only woke up once and she was fine at that time. Then I was knocked out by her."
Jane shook her head and that was all she knew.
After this officer was done asking, he turned and looked at the accomplice Alby who was brought by his colleague.
"Did you see the whole thing?"
Alby nodded while trembling and replied with a trembling voice, "Miss Lowe told me to kidnap Ms. Doyle. But I kidnapped the wrong one. She got pissed... and said that she would get caught eventually, so... so she just killed herself."
"Okay. We'll get other information from you if needed and keep you notified after we investigate it."
Then the police told them to stay in this villa today and that this area would be blocked temporarily. Seeing the police leaving, Martha slightly frowned.
She thought what Alby had said was a lie.
Why on earth would someone like Joann commit suicide for fear of punishment?
But Martha had no evidence.
She thought, 'If Joann was the one behind the kidnapping, then Hollie must have been involved in it.'
At this thought, Martha's face changed and she looked away at Hollie, who was standing aside silently just now. Hollie noticed Martha's glances but she didn't care.
There was nothing Martha could do about her without evidence.
Hollie then looked at Stefan with concern deliberately and asked with worry, "Stefan, how do you feel right now?" "I'm fine."
Stefan replied coldly while staring at Martha.
Martha looked away to neglect his gaze.
When she saw them like this, Hollie's face darkened. She was upset but she still said softly, "Promise me, you won't risk your life next time. It's not worth it." Hearing these words, Stefan didn't utter a word, his eyes like twin pools so dark and deep.
