Nicole said it bluntly.
Since Nicole entered the door, she felt that Kirsi’s sadness had exceeded her expectations.
Zach was not Kirsi’s husband and was just her lover.
With Kirsi’s standards, Nicole guessed that Kirsi probably did not love Zach deeply.
Thus, Nicole thought that Kirsi went a little overboard by acting sad.
Kirsi looked up at Nicole, took a deep breath, and calmed her breathing.
Kirsi seemed to be restraining her emotions.
After a long time, Kirsi said with gritted teeth, "I know you look down on me.You and Lumi are friends,
and since Lumi married Ian, I’ve become a thorn in your side.That’s why you're targeting me, right?"
Nicole was a little puzzled by those words.
What was Kirsi talking about?
Kirsi sneered, threw away the tissue in her hand, and did not bother to continue pretending.
"That’s right.
I’m a homewrecker! I’m also a homewrecker who is about to succeed in becoming Zach’s legal wife! I
was so happy about Tina’s death that I couldn’t sleep for several days! You have a good relationship
with Tina, so do you hate me even more now? That contract was proof that you and Tina wanted to get
revenge on me.You two wanted me to lose everything while still pregnant with Zach’s child, right?"
Clayton’s face turned glum from Kirsi’s outburst.
However, now was not the time to get on Kirsi’s bad side.
Usually, one would let down one’s guard when one was emotional.
"Zach's property already belonged to me, but with that contract, I became a joke! Fortunately, Tina died
in time!"
Nicole looked at Kirsi’s provoked face and frowned slightly.
"You don’t know?"
How could Kirsi not know? Kirsi only thought about the contract, but the crux of the matter was not the
contract.
Kirsi stood opposite them and stroked her belly weakly as if she had exhausted her strength.
"Ms.Stanton, you should know better than me how Tina and Zach died."
Kirsi paused and looked at Nicole with tears in her eyes.
"I won't tell anyone, but you'd better not look for me again in the future.I don’t want to be involved in
these things anymore.I’m too far along to abort the baby.Otherwise, I wouldn’t want to give birth to this
baby."
Nicole’s heart sank.She subconsciously looked at Clayton.
Nicole had a feeling that Kirsi was implying something in her words.
Clayton patted the back of Nicole’s looked at Kirsi, and said in a cold tone, "How can we trust you? You
said you wouldn’t tell anyone, but from what you said earlier, you clearly have a grudge against
Nicole.Now, you have something over her, right?"
He was just going along with Kirsi’s words.
Kirsi might not tell them anything if they asked directly.
Nicole pursed her lips tightly, and her body stiffened.She could vaguely feel that Clayton had begun his
game of chess.
He was trying to agitate Kirsi.
Kirsi looked at them with agitation and raised her hand in a swearing gesture.
"I swear.I’ll just take it as you never came here.When Zach jumped off the building, you were just
leaving.I didn’t say a word about it when the police asked me!"
Nicole was shocked.She looked at Kirsi dumbfoundedly.Her heart felt like it was sinking into the deep
sea, floating up and down, as if something was dragging her into a deeper and more terrifying place.
Nicole broke out in a cold sweat when she heard Kirsi’s words.
Clayton took a deep breath.
"Please tell us what happened in detail.I want to make sure that nothing is left out."
Kirsi looked at Clayton and did not know what to make of his attitude.
Nicole seemed to be sitting there calmly, but in fact, her heart was in turmoil.
This made her feel extremely cold and frightened.
How could Nicole come here to meet Zach? What did Kirsi mean by this? Kirsi looked at Nicole with
fear and disgust in her eyes, but Kirsi tried to conceal it as she did not dare to offend them.
She reached out and touched her bulging belly.
Her heart was trembling.
Under Clayton's threatening gaze, Kirsi knew that she had to do what he wanted.
Zach was dead, and Samuel avoided Kirsi like the plague.
With Kirsi’s age, she could not find a better financial backer.
Kirsi could only strive for her best interests by not offending these two bigwigs.
The room was silent.
Seeing Kirsi's hesitation, Clayton said in a clear voice, "I won’t force you if you don’t want to tell
us.We’ll just ask someone else."
After that, Clayton left without any hesitation.
Kirsi immediately regretted her silence.
"Wait..." She pursed her lips and glanced at Nicole.
"why are you asking me these questions? Shouldn’t Ms.Stanton know better?" Nicole frowned.
"What do I know?"
She was about to ask when Clayton winked at her.
Nicole closed her mouth.
Kirsi took a deep breath, picked up the cup from the table, and drank the water inside.
"After the first few days of Tina’s death, Zach was quite miserable.But after learning about the
document, he went crazy.He ran out to get a lawyer and went to the police.But these two days, he fell
silent and said that he wanted to look for Nicole.When I came back that day, I saw Ms.Stanton standing
at the door when the elevator arrived on our floor..." Kirsi paused.
Her expression changed as she raised her eyes to look at Nicole.
Nicole’s body was stiff.
She pursed her lips and looked very solemn.
Kirsi looked at Clayton, who nodded calmly and motioned for her to continue.
She breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Ms.Stanton, did you forget? At that time, you warned me
not to tell anyone.Otherwise, you’ll make me suffer.I didn’t understand what you meant at the time until
I went into the room and happened to see Zach jumping off the balcony...Ms.Stanton, are you still going
to deny it? Or did someone pretend to be you? Ms.Stanton, you’re not short of money, so why did you
force Zach to commit suicide? Is it because Zach knows something that he shouldn't?"
After Kirsi finished speaking, Nicole’s face gradually turned pale.
Clayton calmly said, "Oh? Then why do you think she forced Zach to commit suicide?"
Kirsi gritted her teeth.
After all, they had already come to this point, so she did not care anymore.
"She’s not short of money, so it won’t be because of the contract.The contract was very unfavorable to
Zach because it proved that he and Tina weren’t on good terms.Moreover, my relationship with Zach
was exposed some time ago, so everyone would suspect that Zach killed Tina.But Zach didn’t kill
her.Ms.Stanton, you wanted to kill Zach because he knew your secret, right? You killed Tina and
wanted to put the blame on Zach, right?"
Kirsi glanced at Nicole coldly.Her eyes were red, and she raised her chin thinking she had seen
through Nicole’s scheme.
Kirsi was afraid, but she also knew that Nicole would not do anything to her now because she was a
public figure and so many people had died.
Thus, Kirsi felt emboldened.
