Chapter 1050 Winston sneered and remained silent.
“So, why don’t we work together? If you are willing to help us seek revenge, be our witness, and testify against Shannon for instructing you to murder Linny, we will take care of the arrangements to get you back to Terranova within a year. As you saw last time, my sister has close connections with the royal family. If | have her intervene and meet the King and Queen, | believe that you won't be serving more than two years and will regain your freedom unscathed.” Bella smiled sweetly while bombarding him with sugar-coated bullets, one after another.
“What do you say, Winston? Give it sthought.” Justin once again gazed at Bella with awe. Her eloquence and intellect far exceeded those who had been in the business world for years. In fact, even many influential tycoons couldn't rival her. He was grateful that his partner was kind-hearted and that they shared a deep love.

Winston chuckled and mocked, “If someone else had made this offer, | might have been tempted. But coming from Ms. Thompson, there's absolutely no credibility.” “The situation I'm in today is all thanks to you, isn’t it? Now that you can’t handle Shannon on your own, you're turning tofor a confession, usingas a pawn. Do you think | can’t see through your schemes?” With that, he suddenly stood up, and the chair screeched against the floor with a sharp sound.
“Don’t waste your efforts here. Instead of spending ton me, think about how to deal with Shannon,” Winston said as he laughed.
After Bella and Justin left, their expressions were not too pleasant.
Ralph refrained from asking further upon seeing that the negotiations had failed. He could only offer them comfort, assuring them that he would continue to question Winston thoroughly.
In the car, Justin was concerned about Bella's feelings and embraced her shoulders, drawing her close.
His strong jaw lightly rested on top of her head as he reassured her.
Bella, don’t lose hope. Even without Winston's confession, we have Linny’s recording. While it may not be direct evidence and it has been 20 years, once this recording is exposed, it will still cause a huge blow to Shannon. She will be completely exposed, and Gregory will no longer be able to protect her.” “Justin, is this all you want?” Bella suddenly asked with a cold tone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJustin felt suffocated, his heart writhing in agony as if it were on the verge of crumbling.
Of course, he wanted more than this. He wanted Shannon dead! “It's been 20 years. Even if we have Linny’s recording, which she sacrificed her life to get, will it really make a difference?” Bella placed her hand on Justin's chest and felt his heartbeat. Each thud held a bitter resentment that only she could comprehend.
“Twenty years have gone by, the statute of limitations has expired, and there is no remaining evidence. Without direct proof, you know very well that we cannot convict Shannon of a severe punishment. Just ruining her reputation and causing her to fall out with Gregory, is that enough? Are you satisfied?” “Bella...” Justin's eyes glistened, and his voice was strained, “Our only chance to make Shannon suffer is by using Linny’s death to force Winston into confessing. We must ensure that the charges of hiring someone for murder stand.” Bella’s eyes brimmed with tears as a storm brewed within them.
“Without Linny, the truth about your mother’s death would have remained hidden in silence forever. We owe this chance to Linny’s sacrifice. We need to seize it at any cost and compel Winston to reveal the truth.” “Do you think Winston will cooperate? His attitude just now was very adamant,” Justin murmured softly.
“He will! Trust me, | sense a hint of hesitation in him. Why else would he sit there silently while we talk so much? He wouldn't even agree to meet us if he weren't having second thoughts,” Bella asserted confidently.
Justin nodded slightly in agreement “It’s just that he can’t trustright now. Also, his current situation is tolerable, so there's no need for him to take risks and cooperate with me.” “Tolerable?” Justin's eyes flashed with a bloody hue, exuding a savage, dangerous aura. “Soon, he will realize that his only way out is to work with us, even if it’s just for the tbeing.”
