Mr. Warner, Your Wife is Running Away Again!-Chapter 683: Reuniting with Your Daughter in Prison

Chapter 683: Chapter 683: Reuniting with Your Daughter in Prison

The woman lifted her head upon hearing the voice, hurriedly stopped wiping the table, and stood up to apologize, saying, "I’m sorry, I didn’t know, I didn’t touch anything inside, just mopped the floor."

Faye Xavier waved her hand to dismiss her, "Alright, you can leave."

The woman lowered her head submissively and walked out carrying her cleaning tools.

Shane watched the woman’s back and asked Faye, "Don’t you find her familiar?"

Faye turned her head for a quick glance, "What do you mean familiar? All elderly women look about the same, don’t they?"

Shane was certain, "Like Clarissa Morgan."

Faye furrowed her brows, filled with doubt as she recalled, then nodded in agreement, "Now that you mention it, she does indeed look somewhat similar. Moreover, I just noticed her hands don’t look like they’ve done hard labor. Why would she apply for a cleaning job?"

Shane entered the office and looked around but didn’t find anything unusual. He just told Faye, "Go to the human resources department and bring me her file."

After comparing the documents, Shane discovered that although the woman’s name doesn’t match Clarissa Morgan’s mother’s name, the identity on the HR file was forged as well.

This is almost confirmed; the snake has come out of its hole by itself.

Clarissa’s mother has always lived abroad, and even if she learned of Clarissa’s imprisonment, she should seek revenge on Quentin Sterling, not Shane.

Now appearing in his company suggests someone informed her of certain things behind the scenes.

And naturally, that person is Catherine Porter.

Shane looked at the teacup on the desk, opened the lid to check, and although he could not be sure if the tea had been tampered with, he chose to throw the tea and cup into the garbage bin.

In the afternoon, when the woman was cleaning the hallway’s garbage bin, she discovered the teacup, ignoring the stench emanating from the bin, picked up the cup, and confirmed it was the tea cup she had infiltrated Shane’s office in the morning to place powdered drugs.

She hurriedly took out her phone to inform Catherine, worriedly asking: Did he discover me?

Catherine felt she had been dormant for some time now and had paid attention to the fact that recently no one was following her anymore.

The meetings between her and Mom Morgan were conducted secretly, and moreover, how could a busy man like Shane notice a cleaning worker in the company?

Shane should not have suspected anything.

Catherine replied: Has he contacted you?

Mom Morgan: No, only I was warned today. It seems I can’t go to his office anymore.

"Hey newcomer, what are you standing around playing with your phone for? Get the trash cleaned up, only starting work yet already slacking?"

Mom Morgan quickly put away her phone, "I’m sorry... right away."

"All delicate and refined, not sure what you can do, fearing dirt and exhaustion, yet coming to be a cleaner?"

Mom Morgan did not respond further, thoughtfully put away her phone, glanced with disgust at the garbage bin before her, and held her breath while tidying up.

Two uneventful days passed.

Shane, however, grew impatient.

In the morning, upon arriving at the company, he happened to see the woman cleaning the corridor outside the elevator.

Shane found Faye to discuss the plan.

Faye, holding a document, pretended to pass by and called out to the woman, "Mae took a few days off. Later, go clean President Warner’s office, just mop the floor, and don’t move anything that belongs to him."

Mom Morgan felt a surge of delight but concealed her joy, calmly replying, "Alright."

Faye walked away straight to the corner, watching the woman pick up her cleaning tools and head towards Shane’s office.

After a while, he pushed open the door to Shane’s office, startling the woman who was mopping inside. Faye approached, placed the paper bag on the desk, and deliberately told the woman, "This is President Warner’s breakfast. If he comes in later, remember to tell him that there was no cheese flavor and it’s been replaced with a savory one."

The woman just nodded and continued mopping the floor.

Faye also made a show of being busy, leaving the breakfast behind and exiting.

Once the door was shut, the woman vigilantly looked left and right, confirmed she was alone, put down her mop, stepped to the desk, and carefully opened the paper bag, lifted the lid on the food, hastily pulled out the prepared powdered drug from her pocket, and sprinkled it on the food surface. The surface luckily had some coconut shreds as garnish, allowing the drug to blend undetected.

As the woman felt her plan was about to succeed, she suddenly heard a noise beside her.

When she turned, she saw Shane emerge from the nearby lounge, holding his phone and filming her: "Ms. Sharon Porter, how do you plan to explain your actions?"

"Or perhaps... I should call you Jasmine Jameson."

Jasmine, still clutching the drug powder packaging she hadn’t discarded, stared in shock at Shane’s sudden appearance and backed away two steps.

The office door opened, and Faye entered, questioning her, "Who sent you here?"

Jasmine felt a wave of panic, completely unsure how to respond, let alone answer Faye’s question.

Shane put away his phone, saying, "Since you don’t want to talk, let’s go to the police station to explain. Once this drug is tested and confirmed to be lethal in dose, you’ll be charged with attempted murder, and fittingly, you can reunite with your daughter in prison."

Mentioning Clarissa, Jasmine became agitated, pointing at Shane, saying, "You ruined my daughter! You destroyed her! You wrecked my life’s work!"

Shane replied, "She destroyed herself."

Faye probably intended to provoke Jasmine, saying, "You’re just as foolish as your daughter, being used as a pawn and thinking you’re serving justice."

Jasmine, in a frenzy, charged at Shane, clawing at his clothes and yelling, "I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you for my daughter’s vengeance!"

Shane frowned and pushed her away; Jasmine staggered and sat on the ground as several police officers rushed in from outside and swiftly apprehended Jasmine.

Franklin Sutton, after having the frantically struggling and screaming Jasmine taken away, stayed to inquire of Shane, "What happened? You suddenly called me over, just as I was nearby."

Shane replied, "You should interrogate her properly, she’s being instructed by someone—Catherine Porter—just get her to confess who’s behind it, Catherine is the real mastermind."

Franklin appeared perplexed, "Would you mind accompanying me to the police station to explain the full story?"

Shane agreed and on the way, briefly explained the situation to Franklin, who exploded once he heard Catherine might harm Audrey Sutton, "Damn it, where did this woman get the audacity? Brother-in-law, don’t worry, even if this old lady won’t confess, I’ll find ways to deal with this woman, daring to target my sister, she’s seeking her own death!"
