Lost All Evidence

Qian Qian looked up at the man who had asked her the question and wondered what else she could tell him. Should she tell him what a fool she had been? "I..No, it did not take method long to think. In fact the problem is that I took too little time to think. Instead of trying to do things on my own, I went to the police. I explained everything and they assured me that he would be arrested and charged as long as I had evidence. But I could never have dreamed that the police would be mixed up with him. Even before I reached back my hotel with Ella, his goons had attacked my hotel room, searching for evidence! At that point, I realized that Shawn was not simple as I had always assumed. It never occurred to me why a man like him would be willing to be just an agent. He had ulterior motives that I was unaware of..."

Matt gave Qian Qian a sarcastic look and said,"So...now you have no evidence to prove your innocence? How convenient."

Miss Xue, compared to your story, the evidence that police has found is more incriminating. Do you know that the nanny was being said from your account every month a certain handsome figure of a few thousand dollars? So even if you say that she was not blackmailing, the data is against you. And yes I can say that you were here when the murder happened but who is to say that you do not have an accomplice. Miss Xue, I have no choice but to report your whereabouts to the police and let them handle the matter."

Matt picked up his phone and made to call the police when her small white hand was placed on his and Qian Qian said," I do have evidence. I hid it well. But I have no way to expose it. This is why I have chosen to hide instead of trying to face him head on. Mr. Long, I understand that you have only Ella's well being in your heart but please trust me, I am not a kidnapper or a murderer. I just want Ella to live here safely and in peace. If we gal into his clutches, we will both not come out alive."

Matt looked at the hand that was curled around his in desperation, before slowly pulling it out of her grasp. Just as Qian Qian was about to lose all hope, he placed a file in front of her and said, "If you really have the evidence, bring it to me tomorrow at this time. And sign this when you come."

With that, Matt turned back and left the house. Qian Qian stared at his retreating back in a daze wondering if she really had been let off the hook?

For a minute her gaze turned suspicious as she wondered if Matt Long was also in cahoots with Shawn but she disregarded it the next moment. No. She had always known that if there was anyone who could help her then it would be the Long brothers. She had even tried to approach the family at the time but they had suffered a loss from what she remembered and been unavailable. Was this fate? That the only person who could help her fight Shawn had somehow become attached to Ella?

As she thought of getting the evidence, she looked down at the file curiously. What was in there?

Pulling it close to her, she opened it carefully before her eyes widened in surprise. It was a pre nuptial agreement! Snapping the file closed, she wondered if the man was insane! Did he just go around carrying a pre nup with him? To hand it to unsuspecting women?

Yes, she needed his help. Because only with a powerful man by her side, would she be able to keep Ella safe but that did not mean that she needed to marry the said man!

She simply needed protection to fight Shawn! Starting at the file as of it was a monster that could bite her at any second, she got away from the chair and went to her room.

From inside the closet, she took out a framed black and white photo of her own mother. It was the last picture she had clicked before her mother passed away. Turning it over, she slowly opened it and untaped a small key from it's inside.

This key was their only chance to get rid of Shawn and Mian Mian.
