Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 555

Erica picked up her bag and told Alex, “You think that I’ll be doomed, right? I’ll tell you this. I won’t be saddled with debts.”

“What are you trying to say?”

“I’ve passed all my shares to Anastasia. So, Tillman Constructions is hers now,” she announced proudly. “I still have my way out.”

“What?” Alex’s expression instantly changed after he heard her. He went up to Erica, stopped her from leaving, and asked, “Anastasia took over Tillman Constructions? When was that?”

“This morning.”

Instantly, he turned to his room and grabbed his phone, dialing a number.

All of a sudden, a furious Hayley held Erica’s arm. “Who sent you here?” She

thought Erica would never find out about her relationship with Alex because she was hiding it really well.

Erica swung her hand and scoffed, “Anastasia told me about it. Don’t you think it’s really ironic?”

“What?” Hayley’s face took on a ghastly expression once again. It’s Anastasia again? Why is she always going against me?

Just then, Alex shouted from his room, “Why is my money gone?!”

Hearing that, Erica immediately realized something was up with Alex, so she spun on her heels and left the place. At the same time, Hayley noticed something as well.

Since Anastasia had taken over Tillman Constructions, the large sum of money that he embezzled would definitely be recovered, and he would need to bear the consequences.

Now, Hayley didn’t want anything anymore; she just wanted to cut ties with Alex completely. Disregarding everything, she was ready to leave too.

At this moment, all she heard was Alex

“Alex Hunter, you’re under arrest for embezzlement. You’ll need to follow us back to the station for further investigation.”

At this moment, Alex’s mind froze for a moment, and something came through his mind all of a sudden. It’s a trap. It was a trap that Anastasia set for him to purposely let him embezzle that money after seeing his greediness and tricks.

He was in deep regret when he realized he had fallen into Anastasia’s trap and had jumped into the abyss with his own feet.

The thirty million, together with the three million that he had embezzled previously, could get him a sentence of more than 10 years in prison.

Within 15 minutes, Erica saw a few plainclothes police coming out of the apartment with a person arrested, and that person was Alex.

Shocked, she saw him having his head pressed and entering the patrol car. Instantly, her brain started to figure out what was going on. Why is Alex arrested? What did he do?

He’d told me about a thirty-million sum of money previously, and he divorced me a few days after that. Since he was in the finance department and he also had a record for embezzlement, did he embezzle that thirty million too? And he’s arrested now because Anastasia found out about it? At the side of a car not far away, Hayley looked at Alex getting arrested in the patrol car with a cold gaze. Her eyes were emotionless as he was just a cash machine to her.
