Immediately after Mr. Smith said this, Isabella remained silent. Everything that came out of her mouth was the sound of her heavy breathing and her enduring pain."Medical assistance is needed," one of the SWAT team members said immediately via the radio on his shoulder.As if the paramedics had been waiting to be called, it was not up to ten minutes before they were summoned. They came to provide the necessary medical aid to Isabella.In this sense, the paramedics began applying direct pressure to Isabella's wound. After making sure she was okay, they immediately carried her to the emergency van parked at the exit of the 40th building.As Isabella was being taken away on the stretcher, four of the SWAT team members took the elevator down to the exit of the 40th floor.If that were all, it was a lie. The four officers of the SWAT team also followed them to the hospital, where Isabella would receive adequate medical care.In the same manner in which Isabella was taken away, the rest of
Not responding to any further questions, Mr. Smith walked toward the fancy car he had driven to the 40th-story building earlier and slipped inside it. Without any delay, the car's engine roared to life, and he sped away.At the hospital, it would be an understatement to say that Mr. Smith wasn't tired of the different reporters who had crowded the hospital entrance. Once again, as he stepped out of the car, each of them rushed to him like bees swarming a freshly bloomed flower. Their questions buzzed around him with relentless curiosity, even before they thrust their microphones toward his mouth."Mr. Smith, do you think Sophia Markwood will survive this gunshot?""We heard the gunshot hit her directly through the heart. Is she dead, isn't she?""What will Ethan do to Isabella Rosewood for killing her own daughter?""What do you have to say about all of this?""Do you think Isabella Rosewood will be sent back to prison?""How did Isabella Rosewood even get out of prison?""Mr. Smith,
It had been two days since Ethan had given Mr. Smith the order to bring the two women to him, and he had been searching all through the city for the mentioned two women, like a needle in a haystack.From the video that had been shown to Ethan, he had printed out their pictures on paper and had gone to the 40th-story building again to verify with the residents living there.However, upon reaching the building, he noticed that the building itself had been cordoned off by the police, and hence, there was no entry, which might interfere with their investigation.In a similar manner, he saw that all the residents in the building had been instructed to vacate until the investigation was fully conducted and finalized.However, this didn't mean that he gave up on his search. He knew that he could not return to his master without the women he had requested.To this end, he showed pictures of these women to every passerby on the street and asked them, "Do you know any of these women?" However,
Upon reaching Ethan Mark's mansion, the two old women, who had indeed followed Mr. Smith, realized that it was the burial service for their daughter.In this setting, a few people were present at Ethan's mansion, each of them dressed in dark suits and dark glasses, with dark hats for the females. They all had reddish eyes, symbolizing their grief over the murder of their precious daughter.In a similar manner, these two old women spotted Ethan Mark and Emily Collins at the front of this small gathering, dressed just like them and with reddish eyes, displaying their grief over their daughter's murder."I hate to see a young child being buried. That's why that person must pay for her sin," one of the old women exclaimed."Yes, Maria, she must pay for her crime. Killing an adult is an unforgivable crime, let alone a child. By the way, how old was the innocent child, Mr. Smith?" The other old woman asked However, if Mr. Smith were to answer the question, it would be a lie. At this moment,
"Everything that was said was recorded on Mr. Smith’s phone, and for this, Ethan thanked them for their cooperation in helping him find his daughter’s murderer. “Thank you, both of you. You have helped me to a great extent in finding out who murdered my daughter. For this, you will be well compensated and protected because, who knows, they might come for you.” As Ethan said this, he turned a sidelong look at Mr. Smith, who indeed understood what he meant immediately without words. Hence, at this moment, he gently placed his hands on the earpiece nestled in his ear and said, “Bring the cash to the stone bench.” As he said, if it took up to five minutes, it was a lie. Another of Ethan Mark's guards came right to them, dressed in the same fashion as Mr. Smith, and hence bowed to Ethan Mark. From his suit inner pocket, he took his hand and retrieved two bundles of dollars. Each bundle contained ten 100-dollar bills. “Here is one thousand dollars for each of you. Take it, and an addit
"Isabella Rosewood," Isabella answered softly and almost immediately. As she answered, Detective Sharon continued her interrogation like a seasoned professional, never wavering in her pursuit of the truth. Hence, she maintained a calm and confident demeanor, carefully choosing her words to extract vital information from Isabella. "Who are Ethan Mark and Sophia Markwood to you?" Detective Sharon asked once more. "Ethan Mark is my ex-husband, and Sophia Markwood was my daughter," Isabella answered with full cooperation. "So, what were you doing at the penthouse atop the 40th-story building? Is there a family gathering going on there that we do not know about?" "No," Isabella said. "We were there to position ourselves in the right spot to take a shot at Ethan Mark," Isabella said. "You used the word 'we.' Who was there with you?" Isabella took a deep breath, fully aware that revealing Mr. X's identity was dangerous, judging by the organization he worked for. However, the guilt of
"And you think I don't know that?" Attorney Hughes said "Everything you said to them will be used against you in court." Don't you know that, and you just shot yourself in the leg?" Attorney Hughes said once more. "Court?" Isabella asked, and then a smirk faded from her face. "Yes, the court. You might probably be arraigned in court in a few days or hours. So, I need you to cooperate with me so that you do not get locked up for the rest of your life. Even if you get locked up at all, your years can be lessened. Do you understand?" "How do you find happiness defending someone who just murdered her own daughter, Mr. Attorney?" Isabella looked at attorney Hughes, her gaze on him growing tougher, as if she were a tiger ready to devour her prey. "How do you not want me to pay for the murder I have committed? Who are you?" Isabella raised her voice. Her calm temperament suddenly changed, and she seemed as if she were gnashing her teeth in horror at the attorney. It didn't mean that att
The next day arrived quickly, as if it had been waiting for Isabella all along to be revealed as the murderer of her child. Hence, it was rightly said that the news of Isabella's arrest for the crime of murdering her own daughter easily spread like wildfire.Everyone in Eldridge, HavenBrook, and the remaining parts of the country already knew what Isabella had done. Nevertheless, if they felt any empathy for her, it was a lie. In light of this, the different media outlets of the press house were found at the entrance of the police station, where Isabella was to be questioned before being arraigned in court. Consequently, everything was being televised live on screens, billboards, social media, and in broadcasting news."We are live at the Eldridge police station, where Mrs. Isabella Rosewood, the ex-wife of the wealthy and popular Ethan Mark, who killed their child, will be interrogated by Detective Sharon, the head officer in charge of this case. Are you anxious to see what they will
