How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 103 -
Chapter 103 -103
Keira Olsen didn’t expect Connor Hill to be arrested so quickly. She didn’t know that as soon as she had identified Connor Hill as the murderer, Holly Sims had already asked her colleagues at the police station to put him under surveillance.
So when they received the text message, they immediately proceeded with the arrest.
And because there were reporters nearby, the whole process was filmed!
When the reporter followed the police to Connor Hill’s dormitory, Poppy Hill was there making a scene, pinching and pulling at Connor and even slapping him several times. She was crying and cursing:
“You ungrateful son, how could you write a letter of forgiveness for Keira Olsen? Do you have no regard for your deceased father?”
“Bastard, just for that bit of money, you sold out your conscience? I’ll beat you to death today. You better take back that letter of forgiveness right now. I want that ungrateful creature to rot in jail until she dies! I want her to pay for what she’s done!”
“You bastard!”
Although Connor Hill was a man, he was slender and surrounded by classmates, making it difficult for him to fight back.
Poppy Hill, however, was a middle-aged woman with a strong grip, so she managed to hit Connor Hill until he cowered. Sadly, he couldn’t escape because she was holding onto his clothes.
The arrival of the police saved him.
He excitedly spoke up, “Officer, take this crazy woman away quickly! She’s beating me!”
Unfortunately, the officers walked up to him instead, “Hello, you are a suspect in a murder case; please cooperate with our investigation.”
This statement shocked both the reporters and Poppy Hill.
Stunned, Poppy Hill spoke up, “Yes, take him away. Make him take back the letter of forgiveness! I do not agree to forgive! I want the murderer to die! To die!”
Hearing this, a reporter also asked:
“Officer, we don’t understand, why arrest Connor Hill for the murder case? Shouldn’t you be arresting the suspect?”
“Is it because of the issue with paying for the letter of forgiveness?”
“May I ask when you will arrest Miss Olsen again? You’re holding a suspect for the murder case on bail and arresting the victim here; what’s the reason for that?”
“Could it really be that the wealthy family pressing you, some kind of inside collusion?”
Poppy Hill also shouted, “Go arrest Keira Olsen, she’s the murderer. Go execute her!”
The police don’t need to explain their actions to the public when making an arrest, but since this case was so widely implicated, the officers, after applying to their superiors, furrowed their brows and looked toward the reporters.
…
The Horton Family.
Isla Olsen’s face was pale as paper as she watched Keira’s confident demeanor. She was somewhat panicked inside.
It couldn’t be as she had imagined, could it?
Jake Horton then said, “Uncle, did you see that? Even the reporters are starting to talk about our family! It won’t be long before people find out, the wealthy family they’re referring to is the Horton Family! Are you really going to protect this murderer?”
Lewis Horton spoke gravely, “Have you considered why the police went to arrest Connor Hill instead of coming for Miss Olsen?”
Jake Horton scoffed, “What could it be? Surely there’s some evidence that Connor Hill needs to complete? It can’t be that Connor Hill is the actual murderer, can it?”
Upon hearing this, Isla’s already pale face grew even whiter as she stared nervously at the screen of her phone.
And at that moment, the voice of the police came from the phone, “We have obtained evidence that the murderer is Connor Hill. He has slandered Miss Olsen, which is why we are arresting him to cooperate with our investigation!”
Upon hearing this, the reporters on the scene were stunned.
Everyone exclaimed:
“How is that possible?”
“Right, the victim is Connor Hill’s father! How could he be the murderer? Surely you’re not trying to force a confession out of him, just to exonerate that person?”
Poppy Hill had just been furiously beating Connor Hill, but Connor was her brother’s only son; she definitely couldn’t stand by and watch him die, so she stepped in front of Connor, glaring at the police as she shouted, “What kind of nonsense are you spouting! How could Connor Hill possibly have killed my brother?! Is it because Keira Olsen gave you a lot of money to slander him!”
The police remained resolute, their faces stern with righteousness, “We won’t let any murderer get away, nor will we wrongfully accuse any innocent person, and we now have ample and convincing evidence!”
“What evidence? If you don’t show it, don’t even think about taking him away!”
Poppy Hill stood in front of Connor Hill.
Connor Hill also swallowed, this man adept at deception now pretended to be the victim. He looked into the camera and said, “I didn’t kill anyone, Aunt, please save me. I’ve already issued a letter of forgiveness to my cousin. What else do they want me to do?”
His words immediately led to misunderstandings among the reporters.
The reporters quickly blocked Connor Hill:
“We now doubt the fairness of your law enforcement. Without sufficient evidence, you’re not allowed to take him away!”
“From what he just said, issuing the letter of forgiveness wasn’t voluntary, right? There must be some conspiracy behind this!”
“Up until now, we’ve had people watching the Hermes family’s estate, and we haven’t seen you go to arrest anyone. Instead, you’re here to take away the victim; could it really be that some people have such immense influence? Are you planning to take away the victim’s family member so that no one cries injustice?”
…
The phone broadcast these questions.
Jake Horton also pressed aggressively, “Uncle, have you put pressure on the police, or are you slandering Connor Hill? Do you hear that? The public has sharp eyes; you can’t protect her with those tricks! With so many people overseeing this situation, are you really prepared to disregard the Horton family’s reputation for this woman?”

Amid his accusations, a policeman stepped forward and took out his phone, playing a recording!
The recording was a conversation between Isla Olsen and Connor Hill:
“Isla, don’t worry, I’ve killed my dad! He will never bother you again!”
“How could you kill someone? That will land you in jail!”
“No, I’ve framed Keira Olsen for it, Isla, I’ve removed these two annoying people from your life in one go. I did it all for you; you have to remember, I love you… ”
After these three sentences, the phone’s Connor Hill suddenly raised his head, looking incredulously at the police.
At the Horton household, Isla Olsen stumbled as well, virtually unable to stand!
She stared, eyes wide in disbelief, at the video…
How could this… How is it possible!
How did the recording end up in the hands of the police?!
If Connor Hill is arrested because of this recording, could he think it was her doing?
Thereupon…
She swallowed, hurriedly took out her phone, and was about to call Connor Hill.
But just then, Connor Hill’s voice also came through the phone: “It’s Isla Olsen, she set me up! That wretched woman! I need to see Keira Olsen, I must see Keira Olsen! I have something to say to her!!”
