Becoming Secret Nanny for Possessive CEO-Chapter 125: Interrogation

Edith smiled with relief as she watched Zack being arrested by the police and the company being raided by the prosecutor’s office for further investigation. If Callum hadn’t done anything by now, she wouldn’t have been able to live in peace. Moreover, she was terrified that something would happen to her twins. A psychopath like Zack would surely use any means necessary to get Callum to grant his wishes.

"Mom, are we going to have dinner with Dad today?" Eliana asked softly.

"Of course. Your father promised to have dinner with us."

Eliana exhaled heavily. "Has Dad been okay lately? I’m really worried about him."

Edith didn’t expect her little daughter to be so worried about her father, who had been facing various problems recently. However, she didn’t want to tell the truth, lest her little daughter continue to show her anxiety.

"Your dad must be fine. He’s been a bit busy lately. Besides, he promised us we’d go shopping tomorrow."

"But, if he’s been so tired lately, he should just rest," Erdin suggested with a pitying look.

Eliana nodded. "I’d rather Dad take care of his health."

Edith stroked her twins’ tiny heads. "If your father heard you two were so caring like this, he’d be even happier to have such wonderful children."

"I want Dad to come home early today. I don’t want him to be tired," Eliana said in a whining tone.

Meanwhile, Callum was summoned by the police to testify in this fraud incident. Naturally, Callum revealed everything he knew, although he didn’t dare reveal that his father was the mastermind behind the fraud. He didn’t want his father arrested for fraud, but for attempted murder. He wanted his father to receive a harsher sentence.

After being questioned by the police as an eyewitness, Callum wanted to visit his fiancée at the boutique.

"By the way, can we ask for your help?" asked the detective.

"What kind of help?"

"The suspect doesn’t want to talk to us because there’s something he wants to talk to you about."

"Have you tried everything to get him to speak?"

"He said he doesn’t want to work with us if you don’t talk to him first."

Callum reluctantly called his fiancée to give her the bad news: he’d be home a little late today because he had to persuade Zack to cooperate with the police. Callum was forced to stay in the interrogation room with Zack until something was done.

The atmosphere in the interrogation room grew tense. Zack still seemed to maintain his innocence, while Callum took the initiative to turn off the voice recorder so the police wouldn’t hear what they were discussing.

"You don’t need to be afraid that the police will hear us. You can talk to me as much as you want."

"Since when did you know all this? Since I showed you around my office?"

"I just want to tell you. If you want to trick me, you should be smarter."

"Are you still stupid? Looks like you’ve targeted the wrong person!"

Callum laughed in annoyance as he roughly tugged on Zack’s shirt collar. "Tell me! Why are you working with my father?"

"Shouldn’t you be asking me? Why did your father send me to trick you?"

"I already know the real reason for wanting to get rid of me from the company."

"Do you want to hear the real facts?"

"What facts?"

"Actually, I have evidence that your father was one of the masterminds behind the accident you experienced five years ago."

Callum slowly released his grip and looked away. "I know my father did it. But why did you mention one of them? Could it be that you know something else?"

"If you want to know the truth behind the accident five years ago, you better let me go now."

"I won’t be that stupid! You stole all the young investors’ money just to pay off your debt!"

"Then how long are you going to search for that evidence? Until you’re old?"

"Since you have already told me openly that you have evidence too, I can look for it myself.

"But why do you look so calm after knowing everything? Especially when I attacked your fiancée back then?"

Hearing that his fiancée had also been dragged into his troubles made his fists clench tightly. "I was angry at first. But after thinking things through, I realized there was no point in treating you harshly. It would be better if I just let you go quietly."

"What’s certain is that now you must arrest your very evil father. He has betrayed me now. He deserves his punishment."

"That’s why, now I want to ask for your help so I can solve all my problems faster."

"What will I get if I help you?" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Meanwhile, Cliff is meeting with Yvette secretly at a bar. Since his scandal was revealed at a press conference, he hasn’t spent much time with Arabella, as his reputation is now ruined. Cliff doesn’t even want to be dragged into Arabella’s troubles anymore. He’s now spending time with other women who share his goals.

"Looks like you failed to beat Callum again," Yvette said as she took a sip of champagne.

"Don’t talk too much, Yvette! Actually, I still haven’t given up on beating Callum."

"But is it true that your father still wants to give your position to Callum? Even though he lost this fight."

"So, now I want to talk to you. Is it true that you ordered my father to erase the traces of the accident five years ago?" This time, Cliff didn’t hesitate to discuss the main topic of today’s meeting.

Yvette smiled slyly, wrapping her arms around Cliff’s neck tightly. "Would you like to talk about this in my room with me?" She arrogantly pulled out her room access card.

"Of course I do. Because I’m curious about what my father is really planning. At first, I thought he was the main culprit."

"Actually, you’re almost right. But the main culprit in the accident five years ago was..."

Just as the pair of lips were about to touch, suddenly another woman’s scream was heard from a distance.

"Cliff!"
