Chapter 520 He’s Not the Abductor
Noticing Deirdre’s unusual behavior, Kyran immediately turned to her and inquired softly, “What’s going on,
Deirdre? Is something wrong?”
The voice from the speaker continued to speak. “The reason I abducted Miss McKinnon is very simple. I don’t have
money, so I wanted to blackmail and extort money to spend.”
‘The voice! It’s a man’s voice!‘
Deirdre shook her head desperately. “This isn’t right! This isn’t right!”
“What isn’t right?”
Deirdre said, “Trust me, Kyran. This man is not the mastermind of my abduction!”
It was no wonder the mastermind of the abduction would be found–it was no wonder that Charlene would yield
obediently. It turned out that she had figured out a way to find herself a scapegoat!
Deirdre’s chest was burning with anger. She felt as if the man in the interrogation room was herself in the past.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn the other hand, this was precisely Charlene’s special trick!
She turned a blind eye to the law, and when she got herself in trouble, she would get someone random to be her
scapegoat!
“What?”
The police officer behind her heard her remark as well. He approached her to confirm her remark by saying, “Are
you sure that this person is not the mastermind of the abduction, Miss McKinnon?”
“I’m sure!” Deirdre said, “This person is used as the scapegoat!”
Noticing how determined she was, the police officer furrowed his eyebrows tightly. “Please hold on, Miss McKinnon.”
The police officer halted the interrogation and questioned the man on the person who sent him to be the
scapegoat, but the man refused to reveal anything. The man assured the police officer he was the one who had
targeted Deirdre because she was blind and easily subdued. Supposedly, the idea of abducting her had come to
him suddenly.
Deirdre found it amusing. ‘How would he think of using Maeve in advance if the idea of the abduction came to him
suddenly?‘
At the thought of Maeve, Deirdre felt dizzy.
Maeve was no saint either. She could hardly absolve herself from the blame.
In the end, the interrogation ended. The man was detained at the police station while the police officer sent Deirdre
to sit in a comfortable area in the office. He said with recording equipment, “Miss McKinnon, I’m going to question
you on the incident now. Please feel free to inform me if there is anything improper at any moment.”
Deirdre clutched the hem of her outfit anxiously. Kyran kept her company and held her hand soundlessly to offer
her support
“Sure…”
Deirdre calmed down, knowing that she was no longer alone now.
“How are you so sure that the mastermind of the abduction case is not that man from earlier? Did you hear
something during the incident? Or do you have some other way to determine the abductor’s identity?”
“It’s because I’m acquainted with the mastermind of the abduction.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s your acquaintance?” Kyran could not help furrowing his eyebrows while the police officer was also astonished.
“So, this is a case of non–stranger crime, huh? Are you acquainted with the person?”
“I’m not only acquainted with the person, but I know that the person is a woman too. Hence, I am fully convinced
that the person who pleaded guilty earlier cannot possibly be the mastermind of my abduction!”
“A woman?”
The police officer had been investigating the case for a week, yet he had not considered the gender of the
mastermind. He could not help being astounded by Deirdre’s remark. “What is her name?”
“Her…”
Deirdre was about to blurt it when her face suddenly turned pale, and her voice halted to a stop.
Kyran noticed something was off. “What’s going on?”
Deirdre clenched her fists slowly. She wanted to announce Charlene’s name on the one hand, but her senses were
telling her, ‘Are you sure, Deirdre?
‘The police will most certainly detain Charlene, and Brendan will be alerted after you give Charlene’s name. Are you
sure you want him to know that you’re still alive?‘
Deirdre shut her eyes in despair. “I can’t remember anymore…”
“Can’t remember anymore? Miss McKinnon, are you… messing with me?”
“I remembered the woman’s voice sounded familiar, but it had been too long…”
