NovelEnglishChapter 2138 The man could not help but chuckle softly. Justin moved his lips close to Bella's ear as he lightly nibbled on her cherry-red earlobe. "I just hate that | can't be with you the way | want to right now." Bella lifted her head and locked her eyes with him. Her face flushed a deep crimson, making her look even more irresistible and charming.
Aside from the whirring camera recording everything, it was just Ralph and Owen in the interrogation room.
"You may begin," Ralph said gently, gesturing for Owen to speak.

"Do you weit to hear the truth? Yes, you have," Ralph replied with blunt honesty.NévelDrama.Org is the owner.
Owen closed his eyes briefly. A faint and resigned smile
appeared on his face. "| like your answer. | admire your honesty." "I remember when | got awarded those first-class and second-class merit badges, it was your hands that pinned them on me. | can still hear you telling me to continue upholding justice, to fight against evil, and to be a good officer who serves the people.” Ralph took a deep breath. His gaze was intense with a storm of emotions. "When | first joined the force, your achievements were legendary. You were a role model for the entire force. So, how do you think | felt when | learned about everything you've done? Watching my steadfast beliefs crumble, | saw my idol collude with a devil. Do you really think that when | arrested you, all | felt was the satisfaction of bringing a criminal to justice?" Owen's broad shoulders shook violently, and his once- proud posture crumbled inch by inch.
He buried his face in his hands. For a long time, the cold
room echoed with his anguished sobs. Tears of regret streamed through his fingers, dripping steadily onto the table.
Ralph felt his chest tighten with an overwhelming mix of ‘emotions, leaving him momentarily at a loss for words.
"Actually... Your investigation has always been on the right track." After a while, Owen wiped away his tears. He continued speaking in his broken and hoarse voice, "The person behind me is none other than the Iverson Group's incumbent chairman, Christopher Iverson."

"You all know that my wife is a severe Alzheimer's patient.
But now she's reached the final, critical stage." Owen closed his eyes as he sank into bitter memories.
"Three years ago, her condition began to worsen. | searched the world for treatments, used every connection, and spent all my savings. However, her condition never improved. Just when | was on the brink of despair, Christopher approached me. He told me that his boss owned a biological research institute that was developing a drug specifically for my wife's symptoms. With Meridan's advanced medical technology, what would take ten or even twenty years of research here could be done in just five years there!" Ralph quickly asked, "What was the name of the research institute?"
"I think it was... RC." "Who is the person behind Christopher?" Owen shook his head weakly. "I don't know... Christopher is extremely secretive about this person. But | can tell he's utterly devoted to that person. It's almost as if he worships them. I'd go so far as to say... If the person asked Christopher to sacrifice his life for him, he wouldn't hesitate for a second. Now that | think about it... It's as if that person brainwashed Christopher. But who am | to judge? | got manipulated by Christopher myself." Ralph's gaze darkened. "Go on." "Christopher then brought the drug back to the country. To accelerate the collection of experimental data, he disguised it as a soft drug and spread it through the black market. That was when | became his cleaner, eliminating any obstacles that stood in the way of the drug trials. | served him willingly, believing that this drug would eventually save my wife's life. But now... it seems everything was wrong from the beginning."
"Christopher didn't approach you three years ago to form a mutual alliance. He lured you into a sinister trap. You weren't a fortunate man but rather a highly skilled tool he handpicked from the masses." Ralph stated bluntly, exposing Christopher's deceitful act.
"Your desperation for the new drug gave him the perfect leverage to control, manipulate, and use you as he pleased. Once he achieved his goal, he would cast you aside or even destroy you without mercy. Those assassins who attacked you the other night were undeniable proof of his intentions."
