The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Hunter refuted it with a fake smile. "Winston killed Ms. Linny. He was caught in the act and found guilty. Mrs. Salvador was
framed. I'm here to clear her name."
Steven sneered, "Are you saying her arrest for corruption, bribery, abuse of power, framing others, and drug use is unjustified?"
"Don't put words in my mouth. Mrs. Salvador is not blameless, but her crimes do not warrant the death penalty. Besides, she
never killed anyone. She will own up to her crimes, but she doesn't need to take the fall over the personal vendetta you have."
Steven fell into silence with furrowed brows.
If Steven snapped at Hunter in a fit of rage, it would be an open invitation for Hunter to attack Bella.
The press stared coldly at Hunter, even cheering Steven on in their minds.
Half an hour before the trial, Hunter got to meet Shannon one more time as her attorney.
Despite the prison garb and handcuffs, Shannon sat composedly in the interview room, her hair neatly done.
Even in prison, she worked on her upkeep. She was able to keep up with her appearance under the protection of the Salvadors.
She knew Gregory had not turned his back on her entirely, so she did not let herself go. She stayed on a diet to watch her weight
and tug on her husband's heartstrings.
So long as she could get out, she would make a comeback. Shannon was confident that she could grab Gregory's attention
again, just like when she stole him from Mary 25 years ago.
With that in mind, Shannon asked eagerly, with a sparkle in her eyes, "Mr. Lovett, you must clear my name and get me out of
here. If I am released, I will give you anything you want, including the position of Salvador Corporation's legal consultant. Why
don't you be a part of the Salvador family? My eldest daughter can marry you. The Thompsons won't be a threat to you. You can
crush your traitor of a brother." Hunter did not look impressed because Steven was never family to him.
However, the proposal to be part of the Salvador family was tempting.
Although it was widely known that Bethany was mean and stupid, Hunter would be rubbing shoulders with the upper class once
associated with the Salvadors.
Besides, it did not matter if Bethany was mean. He could just be worse than her.

Hunter cleared his throat and asked
in hushed tones, "This will be the last time we talk before we go to trial, Mrs. Salvador. Please be honest with me. You are being
tried for hiringa hitman. Winston gave you up. You are lucky because the evidence is all circumstantial, so we have a chance to
fight back. Be honest with me. How did you put
Winston up for the task?" Content
"I sent my eldest daughter, Bethany, to do it. I never revealed myself throughout." Shannon sold her daughter out right away.
"Hmm... But you attempted to get
Winston killed to silence him. Winston holds that against you, so
he won't give Ms. Bethanyoso
He's
focused on taking you down."
Shannon replied, "Isn't your brother, Clarence, a judge? Can't you get through to him to be a little lenient?"
"Clarence is very much by the book. I had a talk with him, but he didn't give me a straight answer. I doubt we can count on him."
Hunter then whispered, "I need you
to answer one more thing. Are you only involved in Linny's murdere case? Are there any other murder cases that I don't know
about?"
Shannon was dumbstruck.
She felt chills down her spine as the image of Mary's contorted body lying in a pool of blood entered her mind.
