Chapter 171
“Betray?” Irish asked Catherine who glared at her menacingly.
“No, you can only use the word ‘betray’ for good people, just like you betrayed Ethan who was so good to you. I didn’t betray Morgan, I’m only fighting for the innocent souls he has killed and hurt”
“Whatever! won’t you performing the baby scan?” Catherine asked and Irish laughed. “The baby scan we’ll be performing next is to know the sex of our baby” Irish said holding
Ethan’s hand to her baby bump.
“Joker” Catherine laughed hard.
“I’m not the joker here, you are. Don’t blame Morgan for been dumb, you’re equally dumb. Anyway, i didn’t take a sip out of the packs of juice you poisoned” Irish said, shockingCatherine to the bone.
“She tried to poison you?” Ethan asked in disbelief.
“Of course, Blaine one of the bodyguards came to my rescue and it was all thanks to you for telling him to protect me. Thank you so much Ethan for making a move to protect me even when i was in another man’s house” Irish stared lovingly at him.
“I knew you weren’t safe in their den. They are both terrible people” Ethan sighed, glad Irish is safe.
“Blaine!” Catherine screamed in anger.
“I’m so going to kill him and i won’t spare you also” Catherine said, making to barge out of the restaurant
Irish pushed her back and she landed on the chair with a thud.
“Fool. Are you about to walk out just now? You think you’re going to get spared after attempting to poison me. No silly, you’ll pay for it” Irish said.
“Where is your proof to get me arrested?! Morgan asked.
“I’m not dumb, I had a tape recorder installed in your room” Irish said and Morgan felt his head swim in another round of shock.
His palm went wet and he started sweating.
“You all are going to pay for this!” He yelled after stabilising himself.
“I’ll be out in no time, i know all of your bosses and I’ll make sure you both get fired” Morgan threatened the two cops.
“Well.. that’s too late” The door opened to reveal Max, Carl and the two men Irish saw earlier.
“What are you doing here Carl?” Ethan asked.
“We’re in this together. Carl and i ” Irish smiled as she gave Carl a hug.
She hugged Max also and shook the two men’s hands saying thank you.
“We’re going to explain later Mr Ethan” Carl smiled, noticing Ethan’s confused look.
Max turned to Morgan and smiled.
“Hello, I’m Max. A CIA agent” he stretched out his hand for a handshake but Morgan just stared looking lost and angry.
“Well.. I heard you earlier saying you know all of their bosses and you’ll be out in no time, you just made a grave mistake in adding to the list of your offense, those bosses of theirs who has been working with you for a long time will also be arrested. And don’t think you know my bosses, even if you do. They won’t be able to help you out this time, the evidences i have with me is enough to have you prosecuted in the court of law” Max said stretching his hand towards one of his colleagues who handed him two handcuffs.
Morgan shifted back, breathing heavily.
Catherine bursted into tears knowing there’s nothing that can be done again.
Their game is up.
“Mr Morgan Harlow, you’re hereby arrested for crime, corruption, theft, illegal
deals, threatening and harming innocent people, planning the murder of Mr Ethan Harlow with your accomplices” Max said clamping the handcuff around Morgan’s wrist.
“My.. m.. y murder?” Ethan asked.
“Yeah, he’s planning to poison you with his accomplices” Irish said.
“What!” Ethan exclaimed.
“You shouldn’t be surprised yet, wait till you see his other two accomplices” Irish said.
“Mrs Catherine Lanyard” Max turned to Catherine who was hiding her hands behind her back.
“You’re hereby arrested for being Mr Morgan’s accomplice, for knowing about his dirty deals and refusing to report to the police, for the attempted murder of Irish Levine’s, for stealing Carrle’s necklace and lastly for the murder of Carrle, Ethan’s godmother” Max said and Ethan fell into a chair in shock.
Irish tended to him as Catherine was handcuffed .
“Com’on Ethan, you need to brace up. I was shocked also. We should be glad Carrle’s murderer is finally arrested, Carrle is finally going to rest in peace” Irish consoled Ethan. He nodded. “I’m only shocked Catherine could do that to Carrle, I knew she and Carrle’s doesn’t get along but i never thought..” He sighed.
“She poisoned Carrle because Carrle wasn’t in support of your relationship with her, and because they believed she’s the reason you’re richer than Morgan” Irish said and Ethan braced in tears.
“It must be so hard to take in, i know you feel betrayed once again” Irish rubbed his hand gently.
He smiled sadly “Betrayed? No, I’m glad she had an affair with him or i wouldn’t have met you, I’m just so pained Carrle’s died because of that, her life was wasted just for nothing” “And we’ll make sure they pay for it” Max assured.
“See what you caused!” Catherine screamed at Morgan in tears.
“I’m going to make you pay for this!” Morgan yelled at Ethan and Irish as he was about to be led away with Catherine.
“Wait” Irish said.
“You know i told you I’m going to give you a kiss once the time is right and I’ve fallen in love with you”Irish said, standing in front of Morgan.
“Well.. it’s so sad that I’d never love you, so how about this instead” She said, slapping his ass.
It made a loud funny sound and everyone laughed except Morgan and Catherine who stared daggers at her.
They were finally led away.
Ethan smiled and got on his feet.
Carrle’s murderer finally apprehended, it made his heart free and made him relieved. He felt happy.
He walked out of the restaurant, holding Irish.
“Why are they arresting Javad?”Ethan asked, seeing Max handcuff Javad before leading him away with Catherine and Morgan.
“What’s going on?! Javad didn’t do anything wrong, they must have mistaken him for one of Morgan’s bodyguards” Ethan said, making to stop Max but Irish pulled him back.
“Well.. your ‘innocent’ Javad is one of Morgan’s accomplices who had joined Catherine in successfully poisoning Carrle to death, he has been a spy in your house for years and not
only him but Gladys tol” Irish said.
“What!”

Ethan walked into his living room and was a bit surprised to see everyone sitting and waiting for him.
His parents, Mrs Gabrielle, Jessica and Arin
They all stood up, looking expectant.
“How did it go?” They asked in unison and Ethan smiled.
“I don’t need to explain” He said and moved out of the way.
Irish stepped in and the scream of Jessica and Arin was deafening.
They plopped into her almost knocking her off her feet.
Mrs Gabrielle and Mr Harlow stared with smiles on their faces while Mrs Harlow
struggled to hide her own smile also.
Two cops walked in and Ethan asked Mrs Gabrielle where Gladys was.
“She should be in her quarters” Mrs Gabrielle said, confused.
Ethan told Rob to take the cops there and few minutes later Gladys was led out with handcuff clamped around her wrists, she was staring at her feet dejectedly.
“What’s going on?” Mr Harlow finally asked.
“Well.. Gladys has been a spy in my house for years, she’s Morgan’s accomplice, together with Javad” Ethan said, shocking everyone.
“I knew there was something about her” Mrs Gabrielle lunged at Gladys, dragging her hair.
Gladys screamed painfully and the cops had to pull her from Mrs Gabrielle’s grip. She was finally led away.
“I.. still don’t understand a thing” Mrs Harlow said, looking confused and shocked at the same time.
“Irish is yet to fully explain to me also” Ethan said.
“Well.. i suggest we should go to the dinning and eat while i explain. Little Arin is starving” Irish said and they all got the message immediately.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
