My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

105 Give Up
No one paid attention to Connor's desperate roar at
that moment.
When the police played the recording, they had already convinced the reporters.
The police continued. “Of course, this recording alone cannot prove that he's the
murderer. We also found his discarded phone, and after restoring its settings, we
uncovered several recordings of the victim from that day that matched what Miss
Olsen had said earlier. This is enough to prove that he had killed the victim
before Miss Olsen arrived and tried to frame her. We
have sufficient evidence to make an arrest, and here is
the warrant!”
After the police showed the warrant, the reporters in front of them immediately
dispersed.
The police swiftly apprehended Connor and left quickly.
The live broadcast ended there.

105 Give Up
The Horton family.
The sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Lewis looked at Jake with a grave expression. “Miss Olsen isn't the murderer,
and I hope I won't hear that word from you again!”
Jake fell silent.
Just then, the butler suddenly entered the room. “Sir, there are police officers
outside. They want Miss Olsen to go to the police station and assist with the
investigation.”
Upon hearing this, Jake found his courage again. “Uncle, even if she isn’t the
murderer, she’s still connected to this case! It's unlucky for someone to keep
going to the police station. It's not suitable for her to stay in the Horton
residence.”
But as soon as he finished speaking, the butler coughed and said sheepishly
“They're looking for...
Miss Isla Olsen.”
Jake Horton was shocked.
He looked at Isla, baffled, and asked, “What does this case have to do with you?
Why do they want you
2/9
there?!”
Isla’s face turned pale; she was disoriented and stumbled, staring blankly at
Jake. “Jake, I, 1..."
Her mind was full of Connor and she couldn't bring herself to comfort Jake
immediately.
Keira, observing the scene, said with a smile, “Don’t be nervous. The police want
to see Isla probably for the case investigation. In that recording just now, the
person talking to Connor on the phone was Isla, right? Isla, after Connor
committed the murder, why did he call you?”
Isla swallowed nervously, clenched her fists, and upon seeing Jake's confused
gaze, she rushed to explain, “I... I don’t know. I felt sorry for him before and gave
him some money, and he just clung to me...”
Keira looked down. “So, you're saying that you gave the recording to the police.
After all, only you would have a recording of your conversation, right?”
Isla wanted to deny it, but Keira took a step closer,
looking straight into her eyes, “After all, if it wasn't you, why would you cover for
him?”

Isla realized she had been backed into a corner.
After all, she couldn't provide a better explanation!
She clenched her fists and could only nod, “...Yes, it
was me.”
“No wonder the police came to ask for your
cooperation in the investigation. When you get to the station, you'll certainly tell
the police the truth, won't you?”
Isla was speechless
She took a deep breath and turned around sheepishly, preparing to follow the
butler out when Keira suddenly looked at Jake, “Aren't you going with her?”
Jake was taken aback.
Keira raised an eyebrow, “She’s your fiancée. Don’t y care about her? After all,
the police station is an
ominous place.”
Provoked by her words, Jake immediately went to Isla Olsen’s side. “I'll go with
you!”
Isla was shocked.
She didn’t need him there!
But Jake Horton didn’t give her the chance to refuse and followed her out the
door.
Inside the police station.
In the interrogation room, a police officer asked, “Please tell us, what exactly is
your relationship with
Connor?”
Isla explained, “I have no relationship with him. Back in junior high, I saw him
being ostracized by classmates
and felt pity for him, so I helped him with a few
lessons, but then he clung to me, calling me frequently
over the years...”
The police officer asked, “After he committed murder he called you first. Why
didn’t you encourage him to
turn himself in?”
With Jake standing right beside her, Isla dared not speak carelessly and
continued to distance herself from the incident. “I never imagined he would go so
far as to kill his own father. I was truly shocked. It's the first time in my life I've
heard of someone committing
murder and than truing to frame comoona also I've
579
been blaming myself this whole time. I urged him to turn himself in, but he
wouldn't listen and even threatened to kill me if I spoke out. Comrade officer, can
you please not inform him of our conversation today? I'm afraid he'll retaliate
against me after he’s released.”
“Of course, we'll protect the witness.”
The police officer then said, “So the anonymous recording we received was
actually sent by you, right?”
Isla paused for a moment, then admitted with reluctance. “Yes, I wanted to do
something to help
solve the case...”
“After receiving the recording you sent, we were able to identify the killer and
promptly find his discarded cell phone. Otherwise, a few more days and a little
rain would have ruined the phone and all the incriminating audio files inside it,
making us lose the most effective
evidence...”

The police officer interviewing Isla stood up. “On behalf of the police station, I
thank you for providing the evidence!”
Isla waved her hand. “It's nothing. It's what any citizen
12:44
6/9
should do...”
The police officer pointed toward the door. “Good, thank you for your
cooperation. I'll escort you out.”

She wondered in which interrogation room Connor
could be...
However, Isla tightened her jaw, took a deep breath, and a hint of scorn flashed
through her eyes..
That was for the best. Sending Connor Hill away would

mean he could no longer pester her!
“What are you thinking about? Get in the car!”
The sound of Jake's voice brought Isla back to her
senses.
She lowered her head. “Jake, I'm a bit scared of being retaliated against...”
“Don't worry. I'm here.”
Jake protected her and led her to the car.

They didn't see that on the third floor
of the police station, in a room with
the lights off, Connor stood at the

“Snap!”
The light was turned on in the room.
Keira, Lewis, and Holly were sitting in the room watching him.
Keira tapped the table. “You heard the interrogation just now, right? You also saw
what's happening
downstairs, so, do you have something you want to say to me?”
