Trapped in Love

Chapter 862 What Calamity! 

Azure couldn’t stop crying. “Grandma, it’s my fault. You can disown me.”

Heartbroken, Inez closed her eyes in pain. “What a calamity!”

Trembling, Alex demanded, “Admit that it was your fault. But what about my child? What about Paige? Have you ever considered that she’ll have to live with that disease for the rest of her life? She must rely on pills her whole life! How dare you do that, Azure?!”

Azure looked up at Alex. “I was confused, and I made a grave mistake, Alex. I’ll bear all the consequences.

After that, she turned to the cops and extended her hands. “Please arrest me, Officer.”

James looked at Azure in a daze and wondered why she admitted to her crime so quickly when others might have denied it.

Although Azure’s actions were abominable, James was distressed for unknown reasons.

He got to his feet. “I’m sorry, Ms. Miller.” After that, he handcuffed Azure.

Similarly, Azure stood up and gave Inez a firm bow. “Forgive me for being narrow–minded and stupid, Grandma. I’m leaving now.”

Crying in pain, Inez said, “The Miller family will never admit to such a child like you! Think it through and get ready to be disowned!”

Azure smiled. “Okay, Grandma.”

After that, she left with the police while both Alex and Lucas stood at the villa door, watching the police. car drive away.

Lucas remarked, “I don’t know about you, Alex, but I feel like we didn’t really punish or harm her.”

Alex looked away. “I’ve underestimated her!”

Lucas asked, “What do you mean?” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Alex explained, “She pretended to repent, knowing it would be futile to explain herself if her crime was exposed. She just wanted a lenient punishment.”

“But she’ll still be locked up in Jail!” Lucas was still puzzled.

Alex gritted his teeth. “I’m afraid it won’t be over so easily!”

His words filled Lucas with confusion.

After the meeting at TYC, Caroline instructed Josie, “I’ll be absent from the company for a while. Sort out the documents and email them to me so I can read, sign, and send them back to you.”

Stunned, Josie asked, “Are you going on a business trip, Ms. Shenton?”

Caroline chuckled and denied it. “No. My big day is coming, and I need time to prepare.”

“Big day?” Excited, Josie widened her eyes. “Are you getting married, Ms. Shenton?”

Caroline blushed and replied, “It’s just an engagement, not a marriage, but I’ll still bring you guys some gifts.”

Josie remarked happily, “Wonderful! Let me congratulate you on your engagement first, and I’ll email the documents to you.”

Caroline nodded, and Josie left the office.

When the door was closed, Caroline picked up her phone and contemplated it before calling Paige.

Paige picked it up after a while and spoke gloomily. “Carol.”

Paige felt sorry for Caroline. “Are you feeling better these two days?”

“I’m okay. Don’t worry about me,” Paige said. “How about you?”

“I want to tell you something, Paige.”

“What?”

Taking a deep breath, Caroline explained, “I found out who plotted against you.”

Silence came over Paige briefly before she spoke shakily. “Who… was it?”

“Azure and Daniella conspired to harm you,” Caroline explained honestly. “A–Are you sure?” Paige questioned.
