The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 4744

When Jacelyn saw that Chloe’s face was swollen after getting beaten up, she was a little shocked and could not help but blurt out, “What... What happened to you?!”

Chloe broke down emotionally at this time. She had originally regarded Jacelyn as her savior, but in the blink of an eye, Jacelyn had also become a prisoner. She felt extremely desperate at this point and blurted out, “Don’t worry about me, tell me what is going on with you first...”

Jacelyn said with great pain, “Isn’t it all because I collaborated with you to sell the cigarettes at a high price? It’s all that damned 1024’s fault... Her family member brought a million US dollars in cash to buy a thousand cigarettes from my sister in one go. My sister had just put the cigarettes together, and the next thing I knew, the FBI had arrested me before I could even get off work...”

“What did you say?!”

Chloe exclaimed and then blurted out, “1024’s family bought a thousand cigarettes? Didn’t we agree on only buying two today?!”

Jacelyn clenched her teeth and said, “They bought two at first, but later, they then came over to buy a thousand cigarettes in one go.”

Chloe questioned her immediately, “Why didn’t you tell me about this?! Were you planning to keep the money for yourself?”

Jacelyn cursed, “Stop talking f*cking nonsense! Your time to unwind had already passed, so how was I supposed to tell you about it? I planned to make the money first before telling you about this matter tomorrow, but unexpectedly, the FBI came and arrested me!”

Chloe then asked again, “So, what charge are you arrested for?”

Jacelyn said dejectedly, “I am now under suspicion of accepting bribes, using my power for personal gain, and extortion...”

Chloe asked in horror, “Your suspicion of extortion has nothing to do with me, does it?”

Jacelyn smiled wryly and said, “Chloe, don’t forget that you came up with the idea of extortion, and you were the one who coerced all these people, including 1024. So, when the time comes for the court hearing, I would only be an accessory, and you will be the principal offender!”
