Chapter 449 Digging Their Own Graves

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Ronald shook his head. “Of course not. I just want to know the truth. Do you know what really happened that night?”
Savannah frowned. “It doesn’t matter if I know or not. You’ve been married to Natalie for so many years, and you haven’t suffered any losses, right?”
“What about you? Did you suffer any losses by marrying Archer? He hasn’t even touched you all these years, has he?”
His mocking smile made her face darken. “Let’s not talk about things that are none of your business. Get straight to the point. What do you want?”
“Of course, let’s get straight to the point. You want to know why I wanted to meet you tonight, right? Look at this.”
He smiled and placed a file of documents in front of her. She opened it and was stunned at the photos on the front page. “What does this mean?”
“Go on. You’ll figure it out soon!” He smirked.
She read through the contents in the document and jumped up in shock. “What do you mean by this? Ronald, you shameless b*stard! When did I become your niece? Look at you. How could you be my uncle?”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t think so. If the public says that I look like your uncle, then I am your uncle. What’s more, my surname is Brown, and I have the same surname as your mother!”
She glared at him. “What are you plotting? What are you trying to do with this fake news?”
“I’m going to marry you, of course. We’ve had such a deep relationship, and you’ve cheated on Archer for so many years, so I think it’s time to tie the knot, don’t you agree?”
“You b*stard!” She had never been humiliated like this before, and he was someone she had completely disregarded. How dare he speak to her in such a manner! Did he have a death wish?
She wanted to slap him, but he grabbed her hand. “Tomorrow morning, no, right now, the videos, photos, and texts of our affair are all over the internet. Isn’t it awesome?”
“Do you think people will believe it? Do you think you’re worthy of something like that? Besides, how can you control the public’s opinion? If you’d dare to humiliate Archer, the Saunders family will never let you go. I don’t even have to do anything, and you’ll already be dead meat.” She sneered disdainfully.
“We’ll know who’s dead meat in no time. Savannah, I’m not stupid. I wouldn’t dare to offend Archer. Can’t you see my true intentions?”
“What do you mean? Don’t keep me guessing. Just say it!” She had lost her patience.
“Aren’t you vicious, shameless, and good at scheming? Don’t you know what’s happening?” He sneered. “Listen, someone sold you to me to let me have a taste of this middle-aged beauty who has been practically a widow for more than 20 years. Tonight is our wedding night.”
“What? Go to hell!” She threw the documents on the floor and was about to stand up when she suddenly realized that her head was heavy and her feet were wobbly. Then, she fell back onto the sofa in a plop.
Without giving up, she struggled to call her bodyguards for help, but Ronald did not stop her and just looked at her coldly.
The call went through, but no one answered. She felt dizzier by the second, and her phone fell from her hand feebly.
Seeing her faint, Ronald picked up the phone. He turned it off and threw it aside. Then, he took out the camera he had prepared beforehand, took off his clothes, and threw himself at her.
Meanwhile, seeing that Valeria had fallen asleep, William got up gently and left the bedroom. Bobby, who was waiting for him in the living room, stood up immediately and said, “Sir, Ronald has succeeded!”
As William heard this, a cold smile appeared on his face. He sat down next to Bobby and picked up his phone to look at the news. The article about him and Valeria had already gone viral on various platforms. He browsed through the news for a while with a neutral expression and then dialed Marcus’ number.
“Ronald has succeeded. You can proceed.”
“Okay! I’ve been waiting for your orders.” After answering him, Marcus reminded him. “William, even though Savannah deserves the punishment, you have to consider Hayden’s feelings. If he sees the news of Savannah and Ronald… He will definitely know that you are behind this… What I’m trying to say is… Why don’t you let the Saunders family take care of this?”
William pondered about this for a moment. Savannah was indeed shameless, and he had taken advantage of this opportunity to teach her a lesson, but for Hayden, it was not right to pull him into this mess.
Marcus was right. He shouldn’t make things too obvious, and he shouldn’t let Hayden be upset and disappointed. “I know. I’ll inform the Saunders family to clean up the mess. You can release the news. Take it slow, you don’t have to do everything at once.”
After hanging up, William thought for a while before calling Archer. “Savannah and Ronald are having an affair at Lotus Road. You can take a few people with you and walk in on them!”
Archer didn’t ask further and said, “Okay, I’ll be right there!”
Since he didn’t ask anything else, it was apparent that he knew what to do. William added, “I won’t get involved in anything else from here. As for my father, let Gavin settle things with him.”
“Okay!” Archer immediately agreed. Thinking how sophisticated William’s schemes were, he was really surprised. “When did you start planning this?”
“I thought about it the day I bailed Ronald out, but I had been hesitating. If Savannah hadn’t messed with Valeria, I might have let her go. But I don’t think I can ignore her anymore after she attacked Valeria at the holiday villa. And it’s great timing too. Valeria and I need a legitimate excuse to be together, so I came up with this. Originally, I didn’t want to take action so quickly so that you could toy with her for a while. But she just couldn’t wait, so I decided to go ahead with my plan first. This was the best chance. She exposed me and Valeria, so I’ll do the same to her and Ronald!”
“Thank you very much!” William’s explanation was simple and clear, and Archer’s gratitude came from the bottom of his heart.
In the car outside the Lotus Road residence, the bodyguards and drivers brought by Savannah were waiting for her news while smoking.
At this moment, a car drove over and stopped beside theirs. The two bodyguards and the driver didn’t take it seriously and continued to chat and smoke. Just as they were talking happily, their car door was suddenly pulled open forcefully.
A few tall and sturdy people stood outside and looked at them coldly. “Come down! President Saunders has something to ask you.”
“Huh? Which President Saunders are you talking about?”
“Who else could he be? Get out of the car right now if you are wise enough! If not, we won’t hold back!”
Then, the three people got out of the car with confused faces and were pushed into the other car.
There was no sign of Archer in the car. But after the three were pushed into the car, they were immediately restrained. One of the bodyguards was talking on the phone, “Sir William, they are all under control. What should we do next?”
“President Saunders will go over to clean up the mess. Just bring them back.”
