Chapter 837 - Its Finally Over (1/2)
London Schneider nonchalantly let John Wendell sprawl on the floor, while Caroline's crying hysterically. He only nodded slightly towards Marc, and his bodyguard immediately checked John Wendell's condition.
Marc checked John's breathing, heart rate, and pulse, then waved to call some of the doctors at the next table.
”Is there a cardiologist here? This man seems to have a mild heart attack,” he said.
A middle-aged man rushed over to check on John Wendell.
”You lucky bastard. You fell ill in the middle of a medical conference, so you can immediately get help,” he murmured in disgust.
”My father needs medical treatment. Please let us go,” Caroline pleaded. But Marc just shook his head.
”Hmm ... People like you don't need mercy. My boss still needs you guys here to make a statement. We are also still waiting for the police to take care of you,” Marc said coldly. He then turned his gaze to the stage.
London has walked onto the stage to approach L, who had just finished her second song. He reached out a hand, which was immediately welcomed by L with a gentle smile.
”Good evening, Mr. Schneider. Thank you for inviting me to perform at this gala dinner.” L bowed slightly.
”You're welcome, Miss L. We are pleased because you took the time to perform at our event. Thank you very much. Your performance was extraordinary. It's true, not only you're beautiful, but your voice is also amazing,” said London to his wife.
”Ah, Sir, you're flattering me.”
”I'm telling the truth,” London said in front of everyone. ”Congratulations on your wedding. I heard you announced your wedding last week?”
L nodded and smiled with a blushing face.
”Thank you.”
All the guests present still did not know the two people who were chatting on the stage were actually a married couple. All the audience only thought London and L looked friendly.
”Your husband is a very lucky man,” London said again, smiling broadly.
L looked at the man while smiling back. She had to restrain herself from pinching London for openly teasing her in public like this.
Finally, she could only nod and could not say anything. The MC stepped onto the stage and guided the audience to give a standing ovation for L's performance just now. The girl bowed many times and then stepped off the stage. She followed London. The man grabbed her waist and brought her to the table where the commotion occurred earlier.
”I want you to meet the people responsible for your suffering,” London said in a soft voice. ”Right now, they already know who you are, and they know that they have to take responsibility for their actions before the law. Before they are taken by the police, I want you to see them in person.”
L nodded slowly. Actually, her c.h.e.s.t was filled with anger again, but gradually she tried to calm down and followed London's steps gracefully. From the direction of the ballroom entrance, several policemen were seen walking in. Marc signaled the officers to come to the table where he was.
L and London arrived before the police. The girl had seen John Wendell, who was responsible for the murder of her family 12 years ago, and her body was trembling in anger. Caroline, trying to help her father, subconsciously looked up when she saw a pair of female legs walking toward her.
Instantly, her face turned pale. Her expression was a mixture of shame, fear, and worry when she saw L's face. She really felt duped. As it turned out, Marianne was the wife of London Schneider.
Apparently, the man was purposely setting her up. Caroline deceived. Tears ran down her cheeks nonstop as she held her temper. Danny Swann, who had also seen L, could only stare in silence. His crime was known, and he felt very ashamed to meet face to face with L.
She must have known by now that he had paid a hitman to kill her and her baby. Even though their families had a good relationship in the past and Danny even had an arranged marriage with L. He felt very ashamed of his actions.
