Diego stopped abruptly when he saw the people in the dining room.
He curled his lips, "There are so many people today. I happen to have something to announce."
"Bastard, get this woman out of here!" Mathew put down his chopsticks angrily, not wanting to listen to
Diego.
But Diego ignored him and continued, "Dad, don't be mad. She's going to be your daughter-in-law."
"I won't admit this woman!"
"Dad, you and my mom haven't divorced yet!" Veronica looked at her father angrily.
As he heard Veronica mention her mother, Diego's eyes flashed with hatred.
"Your mother and I have been separated for three years, we will definitely divorce!"
"No! Diego, you can't do this to my mom...you can't do this!" Veronica glared at him sulkily.
"Don't mention that woman to me. Dad, I'm just here to tell you that I will marry Nell Harvey!"
"Diego and I really love each other." Nell looked at Mathew nervously.
But Mathew ignored her.
"I don't care what your relationship is with Diego, but you can't marry him unless I die!" Mathew said
firmly.
Nell's tears rolled down her face almost instantly as he heard that.
Leaning in Diego's arms, she sobbed.
"Dad, you are so stubborn!" Diego said irritably.
"Steward, take them out. Don't let them irritate Grandpa again," Joseph ordered.
When he finished his words, bodyguards came in soon looking as if they tried to throw Diego and Nell
out of the house.
"Diego, I will bring my mother back. Don't you dare to marry this woman!" Veronica said angrily.
Diego sneered, "Veronica, I really shouldn't have let her give birth to you!"
Hearing that, Veronica was obviously irritated. She couldn't help but threw the spoon in her hand
towards Diego.
"You psycho!" Although Diego pushed it away, the spoon hit Nell's forehead and the blood kept flowing.
Diego was so worried that he immediately took Nell to the hospital. Only then did the house quiet down.
Veronica was furious, looking rather irritated.
Joseph patted her back lightly, "Don't be impulsive."
"Joseph, I want to bring Mom back. Nobody can stop me!"
"If she comes back, it will only stimulate Diego even more." Joseph frowned.
"I don't care! Grandpa, do you agree?" Veronica looked at Mathew expectantly.
Mathew pursed his lips and nodded slowly.
Diego had been acting too absurd all these years. Maybe it was time to teach him a lesson.
Veronica's mother, Macie, was Diego's second wife. Since learning about Diego's affair, she had been
staying in the Hunt family in Country F and never came back.
Diego filed for divorce many times, but she never agreed.
Three days later, Veronica came back to City N with her mother. As soon as they got off the plane, the
police came over.
"Miss Macie, you are suspected of intentional homicide. Please cooperate with our investigation."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Veronica blocked in front of her mother angrily.
Macie patted her hand, "Veronica, go back first."
"Mom..."
"Ask the lawyer to come over."
Veronica pursed her lips, watching her mother being taken away. She immediately called her brother.
Half an hour later, Veronica came to Joseph's Group.
Joseph was looking at the investigation documents he had just obtained, frowning.
"Joseph, how could this happen? Why was my mom taken away by the police? She has been in
Country F..."
"She has come back to City N a few years ago, but you don't know," Joseph said solemnly.
"What did you say? Why did my mother come back?"
Joseph's handsome face was now gloomy. He did not speak.
"Joseph..." Seeing Joseph being silent, Veronica became even more nervous.
"If I'm right, the police took her away because they suspect that Macie indirectly poisoned Sammy."
"Sammy... Who is she?"
"Peter Champs's mother."
Upon hearing this, Veronica was stunned. She trembled when she heard the name.
"My mother won't kill," she murmured.
"Veronica, let's go to the police station first. Don't worry."
Although Joseph said so, the truth he found so far was indeed the case.
But now Macie was arrested as soon as she got off the plane. If he was right, Diego was the one to
report it.
The black car slowly stopped in front of the police station. When Veronica got out of the car, the
reporters immediately gathered around.
Joseph looked sullen, held Veronica in his arms, and pushed her in.
The bodyguards around immediately ran over to lead the way.
"Mr. Joseph, I heard that Macie was involved in an intentional homicide. Is it true?"
"Mr. Joseph, the share price of Joseph's Group plummeted today. Is it affected by this incident?"
"Are there any grudges between Macie and Miss Sammy?"
"..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Veronica couldn't help but yell.
"The matter is still under investigation. Please don't make any presumptions. If you still want to stay in
City N, don't cross the line!" Joseph said coldly.
As soon as he said, the reporters dared not speak.
Although they didn't know much about the Joseph family, the Joseph's Group was the most powerful
enterprise in City N. Joseph was in power. Who could afford to offend him?
Moreover, the more mysterious the family was, the less everyone dared to spy on.
Joseph had asked a lawyer to come over, but because of the current evidence, Macie couldn't be
released on bail for the time being. But Joseph and Veronica could go in for a visit.
However, Macie refused to see them.
"Joseph, someone must have set my mom up!" Veronica said anxiously, "Is it Diego? If my mom
doesn't divorce him, he will force her!"
"Veronica, if this is the truth." Joseph looked at her.
He only found out about this case a few days ago, but he didn't expect Diego to submit the evidence
sooner.
Perhaps he deliberately brought Nell back to the old house that night, just to stimulate Veronica to bring
Macie back and take the opportunity to arrest her.
Joseph looked sullen. Diego seemed to fool around in recent years and had no interest in the Joseph's
Group, but he was always so scheming.
"No, how could my mother murder people..." Veronica shook her head, her eyes gradually red.
She didn't believe it...
Joseph held her in his arms, "Veronica, I knew how Macie reacted when you had an accident back
then. Since Peter is an accomplice, she might not let him get away from this if she can't attack Billy."
"But the people who should go to jail are those who harmed me, not my mother!" Veronica said angrily.
"Calm down, if Macie is really convicted, I will try my best to apply for a commutation."
"No, my mom will be fine, Joseph. I don't want my mom to go to jail!" Veronica looked at Joseph
pleadingly.
Although the media did not dare to report on the arrest of Macie, people in the industry had heard the
news. The Joseph family was turbulent, which caused Joseph's Group's stock price to plummet today.
