Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 643 Confession

Gordon was taken aback by her sharp tone and was immediately frightened, which resulted in his

involuntary incoherent words. "I really don't know. I… I was just here to clean the floor. I—"

"If you can tell me everything honestly now, maybe I can consider forgiving you."

Initially, he thought to himself, What could a mere woman do to me?

As he looked into Elspeth's eyes, which were filled with cold determination, his legs turned weak in an

instant.

"Miss Lynwood, I… I'll tell you. It was Jorman who asked me to work with him on these things. I didn't

want to do it, but he used my family to threaten me, so I had no choice." Gordon fell to his knees in

desperation. "Please forgive me. I have elderly parents and young children to take care of. If something

happens to me, no one will be able to support them."

Elspeth frowned as she saw him crying uncontrollably. "That's enough. Wait over there. I'll deal with

you later."

After saying this, she turned around to look at Jorman, who was behind her, only to find that he was

already sweating profusely. "He has confessed everything. Are you still going to conceal the truth?"

Jorman glared at Gordon's pitiful appearance and forced a flattering smile. "Miss Lynwood, he's just a

small fry. Can you trust what he says?"

She raised an eyebrow when she realized that Jorman was trying to shift the blame.

"It's all this little brat's plot to frame me. I have nothing to do with this matter," Jorman said while

standing aside with his hands in his pockets and watching the scene unfold.

Gordon, who initially knew he had done something wrong, stood dejectedly behind his boss. However,

when he saw his boss shamelessly pushing all the blame onto him, he became furious. "What do you

mean by that, Jorman? I have done so many bad things for you. Do you think I did them willingly? This

time, I didn't want to do it at all, but you forced me. If it wasn't for you colluding with Alphascape Group,

how could we have done something like this?"

Elspeth stood by as she enjoyed the spectacle of two dogs biting each other.

Jorman's face turned red instantly and he was boiling with anger. "What nonsense are you spouting? I'll

slap that mouth of yours!"

His plump body wobbled as he lunged toward Gordon, but unfortunately, despite appearing skinny,

Gordon was unexpectedly strong. He grabbed Jorman's wrist, causing Jorman to grimace in pain.

"Since you shamelessly want to throw me under the bus, I won't show any mercy. Try laying a finger on

me again, and I'll kill you!"

Upon realizing his intimidations and threats had no effect on Gordon, Jorman decided to just plop down

on the ground and throw a tantrum.

"Enough of this. Silence!" Elspeth's voice broke the tension, and both men immediately stopped their

actions as they turned their heads to look at her. "I have absolutely no desire to witness this staged

fight between you two. Gordon has already revealed everything. You colluded with Alphascape Group,

is that right?"

Jorman lowered his head and remained silent, but his silence was the best answer.

"How did you establish contact with Alphascape Group?"

He stammered and took out his phone. "We usually communicated using a phone number. The

address associated with that number is not in Damoria."

"How long have you been in contact?"

Elspeth took the phone and saw the foreign number displayed on it. The address happened to be the

same location where Emma was staying abroad.

"Not too long. About half a month."

She was shocked.

"Our sample research has only been going on for a month, and you've been in contact with her for half

a month."

Yena was indeed an extraordinary person. It seemed that she was no longer the same Emma as

before.

"I'm sorry. I know this is wrong, but Miss Hallaway provided me with so much."

He was just a person driven by greed and manipulated for the sake of money, so Elspeth looked at him

coldly. "Tell me everything you know."

Jorman nodded and began to carefully recount his experience. "Here's what happened. A person from

Alphascape Group approached me multiple times. I don't know how they found out about our factory's

collaboration with Azure. Initially, I wanted to reject that person. After all, one cannot do such things

with a clear conscience, but… Later on, the price he offered kept increasing, so I got tempted and

foolishly did such a thing.

"You can rest assured. My contact with him only started recently in the past few days. Besides

tampering with the samples, he didn't lay his hands on anything else."

Jorman appeared sincere, and it didn't seem like he was lying.

However, Elspeth knew that when it came to making mistakes, there were either none, or there would

be repeated instances. The incident had already occurred, so she couldn't continue the collaboration

with the factory.

However, from what she heard from Gordon earlier, Jorman had done more than just the things at

hand, and he deserved to face some consequences.

She smiled gently like a refreshing breeze after the rain. "Are you sure you're telling the truth?"

"Of course. Everything I said is true. I swear on my life! No, I swear on my whole family's lives!"

She waved her hand. "To err is human, to forgive divine. Since you've revealed the truth, I won't be so

heartless."

Jorman chuckled as he felt relieved that he had avoided receiving severe punishment. "Thank you,

Miss Lynwood. Thank you for giving me a chance to turn over a new leaf. Rest assured that there will

be no more external interference in our future cooperation."

Elspeth asked in astonishment, "Who said I will continue to cooperate with you in the future?"

The smile on Jorman's face froze instantly. "Didn't you just say that you'll give me another chance and

continue to work with me?"

"When did I promise you that?"

Jorman's face turned pale. However, he consoled himself silently while thinking that even if they

couldn't collaborate anymore, it didn't matter. At least he had saved his life and his factory, but in the

next second, the sound of police sirens suddenly came from outside.

His face changed drastically. "You called the police?"

Elspeth smiled. "Of course. It's only natural for me to do so. After committing so many guilty acts,

wouldn't you have nightmares when you sleep at night? I'm sending you to prison to reflect on your

actions."

He realized that the situation was irreparable, so he turned against her and immediately lunged toward

her.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

She took a step back in disgust as a bulky body came toward her. She lifted her foot, kicked him, and

sent him flying.

"Do you really think you can lay a hand on me?"

The police burst into the room and quickly subdued everyone present.

Before leaving, Jorman angrily shouted, "I'm telling you, don't get too cocky. Alphascape Group will

never let you off the hook!"

Elspeth let out a chuckle. "We'll see about that."
