RISE OF THE HEIRS: Getting Rid of The Traitor 241
One warning shot did not stop Arthur from running away from Aland. Neither did the second shot, fired by the police officers standing guard around the tourist site.In just an instant, the shots were fired quickly. Arthur's left leg was shot by hot lead. Blood spurted down his long trousers. His body collapsed to the ground with the folding knife still in his hand.Seeing Arthur's wounded body covered in blood, Aland quickly crawled to his feet, ignoring the footsteps of the officers who kept approaching to ambush Arthur, who was still trying to run away from the police.Aland tried to get up, even though his shoulder was bleeding. He tried to catch up, but his other hand was grabbed from behind."You're hurt, Aland! Please don't move! I've contacted Allen and the police. I've also contacted the medic! Please, sit still, Aland. You have to apply pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding. Please, Aland."Aland sat down as he saw Arthur being carried by police officers into a patrol ca

"You killed him for me?"Jill's question greeted Arthur, whose leg was wrapped in a bandage. A single shot had lodged in Arthur's calf, leaving him unable to run for even a moment. His grin greeted Jill, who was quite satisfied even though the two were no longer talking."I not only killed him, mum. I also chopped off his shoulder. He will be in pain. He'll die in pain after losing so much blood."Jill laughed. She grimaced and nodded in understanding with both hands clasped, as if she was giving a big appreciation."That's good enough. He won't forget it for the rest of his life. There will be scars that will keep reminding him how stupid he was to fight the wrong person."Arthur was silent. He headed to the corner of the prison that directly overlapped with the corner of the prison that Jill occupied next door."I couldn't get anything other than his phone. I wish you knew what you could do, mum."Jill laughed when she saw Arthur's hand giving her Aland's phone. She accepted it quic

"Aland asked me to keep quiet. But it was clear enough for me to keep my voice and open."Meggie's opening in the centre of court. She, who was present at Jill's trial for many of the charges, volunteered as one witness to the cruelty she had encountered.Will Smith, as Aland's lawyer, couldn't help but present a fresh case for Jill's trial."Last night, I went to Aland who had been savagely attacked by Arthur, which turned out to be a plan by Jill and Arthur together. They had planned to cause a scene, providing an opportunity for the others to escape quickly. This time, they targeted someone's banking account. Mrs Fischer was the first one the suspects encountered. However, she managed to escape when the victim grabbed the suspect with a rope. Unfortunately, the victim became the suspect's rampage because he didn't get what he wanted. It took more than two hours and at least twenty-eight stitches on the victim's shoulder to recover. Besides the assault, a deliberate es

"Is she getting crazy? How could she come here just to accompany Arthur to prison? After all, everyone knows Arthur will be imprisoned in the city! The charges are just because of the problems there! Then why did she come all the way here just to show her high sympathies? How disgusting! Isn't she even ashamed of his behaviour in front of Arthur's wife?"Jill's muttering didn't end when she had just entered the detention centre in the same clothes without any cellmates to avoid the same persecution. From not far away, Camellia, who was accompanied by three other prisoners, could only remain silent.Lia did feel hurt. Especially when she knew Arthur had implicated his love for Dwyane. She glanced at Jill, who was still pacing back and forth inside the detention centre while biting her thumbnail in anxiety.Camellia closes her eyes. She remembered very well the results of the examination before Jill was put in the cell alone. Although the mental examination of Jill would b

"You're not embarrassed to meet me here?"The question from Arthur, who had just sat down at the back of the glass-fronted room, made Dwyane snigger. She shook her head slowly because she knew very well that visiting someone was not a mistake."I'm here because I want to talk with you. I didn't want to do anything wrong. So why should I be ashamed of people who won't even care what I'm doing?"Arthur paused. He looked up at Dwyane with blue eyes. He smiled before he shook his head slowly."Listen to me, Dwyane. You know, I'm not a good man. I mean, I'm not the Arthur you used to know. I've changed.""I know," Dwyane interrupted. Her hand was pressed against the glass, as if she was holding Arthur's hand from the outside. "I know. You're a good man who's lost. You're just lost. So just accept your current punishment and don't do anything until the court gives you another directive. You know that well, don't you?"Arthur shook his head once more time. His smile

"A letter? From who? I never even put a letter in there. Maybe Shannon."Pete's voicemail reply made Aland chuckle softly. He opened the handwritten letter messily. Before he finally sat down and swallowed hard.His shoulders still ached like crazy as he quickly placed the letter on the table, leaving the house after grabbing the jacket he couldn't wear without help. He grabbed the car keys before finally driving off, wandering into a fairly quiet street.It only took a moment for Aland to get there, to the prison, where Arthur would serve the rest of his life sentence. He let out a long sigh as he convinced himself that he had done his best for many things.Without hesitation, Aland entered the prison, and sat down in the waiting room to get a visitation time. Luckily, the queue wasn't long enough for him to enter after an hour's wait.Who would have thought that the newly arrived Arthur would immediately sit down and demand answers? Although he didn't speak, hi

"Both of you two came all the way here just to ask about my relationship with Arthur? Do you wanna pulling my leg, huh?"Aland and Shannon's questions were repeated by Jill behind the glass partition. She, who often started fights with original prisoners every day, couldn't help but get into an isolated prison in the underground section. An individual prison designed specifically for cold-blooded killers who often took out large numbers of people at random.Jill squinted softly when she realised the file she had been hiding was discovered by her disobedient son-in-law and stepdaughter. Her hands clasped together before letting out a soft chuckle."I didn't know you could find that place so easily. It's been twenty years, and you messed everything up. It's not fair, Cobb."Aland was about to rise from his seat, but was stopped by Shannon with a shake of her head. Aland nodded his head to reassure Shannon that he would be okay.Still filled with doubt, Shannon rele

"Sophie? You're trying to defame our orphanage just because of Sophie's case? Do you also want to examine all the children in this orphanage so that you can be satisfied with your judgement, Mr Fischer?"Aland turned to Shannon briefly before leaning forward, trying to calm him down. "Listen to me, Mr Flitch. This is not what you think it is. We're not here to make a statement or to judge your orphanage as bad, no. I'm just here because there's something wrong. I'm only here because there's something I wanna to know. About Sophie. That's all. We will never tell anyone that Sophie is from here. After all, the whole of the UK knows that Sophie's dangerous behaviour is not the result of someone's upbringing, but her disposition, which may never change even twenty years later. We're just looking into her bloodline. That's all."Dom Flitch squinted with an angry gaze. His previously cupped hands immediately came closer, watching Aland and Shannon's movements that seemed so d
