How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire-Chapter 104 -
Chapter 104 -104
No one paid attention to Connor Hill’s impotent roar at this moment.
As soon as the police played the recording, they had already convinced the reporters.
The police continued, “Of course, this recording alone cannot prove that he is the murderer. We also found his discarded cell phone, and after recovering the settings inside, we found several recordings of the victim on the day in question. The victim’s words matched those Miss Olsen mentioned in the past, so this is enough to prove that he had already killed the victim before Miss Olsen’s visit and had framed her! We have sufficient evidence for an arrest, and here is the arrest warrant!”
After the police presented the arrest warrant, the reporters in front of them immediately dispersed.
The police then promptly seized Connor Hill and quickly left.
The live broadcast ends here.
…
The Horton Family.
This sudden reversal had caught everyone off guard.
Lewis Horton looked somberly at Jake Horton, “Miss Olsen is not the murderer. I hope I don’t have to hear that title again from you!”
Jake choked.
Right at this moment, the butler suddenly entered the room, “Sir, there are police outside looking for Miss Olsen to accompany them to the station to assist with the investigation.”
Upon hearing this, Jake was once again startled, “Uncle, even if she isn’t the murderer, she is still not unrelated to the case! It’s bad luck for someone to always go to the police station. It’s not suitable for her to stay at the Horton residence!”
But as soon as he finished speaking, the butler coughed and awkwardly said, “They are looking for… Miss Isla Olsen.”
Jake Horton: !!
He looked at Isla Olsen in astonishment and asked in confusion, “What do you have to do with this case? Why are they asking for you to go?!”
Isla Olsen’s face was pale, and she was visibly distraught, staggering as she heard this, and stared blankly at Jake, “Jake, I, I…”
Her mind was full of Connor Hill, and at this moment, she couldn’t immediately comfort Jake.
Seeing her this way, Keira spoke up with a smile, “Don’t be nervous. The police are looking for Isla, probably for the investigation. That recording just now, you were the one on the phone with Connor Hill, right? Isla, why did Connor Hill call you after he killed someone?”
Isla Olsen swallowed hard and clenched her fists. Seeing Jake’s puzzled look, she immediately explained, “I, I don’t know why he called me. I felt sorry for him before and gave him some money several times, and he just latched onto me…”
Keira looked down, “So, you were the one who provided the recording to the police? After all, only you would have the recording of your conversation!”
Isla was about to deny it, but then Keira stepped forward and looked directly into her eyes, “After all, if it wasn’t you, why would you help him hide it?”
“…”
Isla realized she had been backed into a corner.
After all, she couldn’t provide a better explanation!
She clenched her fists and could only nod, “…Yes, it was me.”
“No wonder the police came to find you for cooperation with the investigation. So, when you go to the police station, you will tell the truth to the police, right?”
Isla: “…”
She took a deep breath and could only sheepishly turn around. As she was about to follow the butler out the door, Keira suddenly looked toward Jake, “Aren’t you going to accompany her?”
Jake was taken aback.
Keira raised an eyebrow, “She’s your fiancée, don’t you care? After all, police stations are rather unlucky places.”
“…”
Provoked by her words, Jake immediately went to Isla’s side, “I’ll go with you.”
Isla: !!
She didn’t need that!
But Jake Horton didn’t give her a chance to refuse and went out with her.
…
Inside the police station.
In the interrogation room, the police asked, “May I ask, what exactly is your relationship with Connor Hill?”
Isla Olsen explained, “I have no relationship with him. It’s just that in middle school, I saw him being isolated by classmates and felt sorry for him, so I helped him with a few lessons. But then he just clung to me, and over the years he’s been calling me…”
The police asked, “After he committed the murder, he called you first. Why didn’t you encourage him to turn himself in?”
With Jake Horton right by her side, Isla Olsen didn’t dare to speak carelessly and could only continue to clarify her innocence, “I didn’t expect him to be so vicious as to kill his own father. I was really shocked, this is the first time in my life I’ve heard of someone committing murder and then framing it on someone else…During this time, I’ve been blaming myself. I advised him to surrender, but he wouldn’t listen and even threatened me, saying that if I dared to speak out, he would kill me. Officer, is it possible to not tell him about our conversation today? I’m afraid that if he finds out, he might seek revenge after getting out of prison.”
“We will of course protect the witness.”
The officer began, “So the recording sent to us by an anonymous person was actually sent by you, correct?”
Isla Olsen was silent for a moment and then admitted reluctantly, “Yes, I wanted to do something to help solve the case…”
“It was also after receiving the recording you sent that we were able to identify the perpetrator, find the phone he had discarded in time, otherwise, had it rained a few days later, the phone would have been ruined and we couldn’t extract the many recordings inside, losing the most legally effective evidence…”
The officer interrogating Isla Olsen stood up, “On behalf of the police station, I thank you for the evidence you provided!”
Isla Olsen gestured, “It’s nothing, it’s what a citizen should do…”
The officer pointed to the door, “Well, thank you for your cooperation, let me escort you out.”
Isla Olsen and Jake Horton walked out together, while walking she still asked, “Officer, you really won’t tell Connor Hill about our talk, will you? He is a very gloomy person, and the way he looks at people is particularly chilling, so I hope you can take protective measures, I don’t want him to find out.”
The officer nodded, “I assure you, we won’t tell him.”
Isla Olsen left the police station with an uneasy look.
After leaving the police station, she looked back again.
The night had already fallen, the entrance was brightly lit, and the inside was also brightly lit; one could see many officers moving back and forth recording statements, working earnestly.
Wondering in which interrogation room Connor Hill was…
Isla Olsen’s jaw tightened, and suddenly she took a deep breath, her eyes flashing with a hint of mockery.
This is for the best, sending Connor Hill in means he can no longer bother her!
“What are you thinking about? Get in the car!”
The voice of Jake Horton brought Isla Olsen back to reality.
She lowered her head, “Jake, I’m a bit scared of retaliation…”

“Don’t worry, I’m here.”
Jake Horton protected her as they got into the car and drove away.
They hadn’t noticed that on the third floor of the police station, in a room where the lights were off, Connor Hill was standing at the window, his gaze sinisterly fixed on the ground below.
“Click!”
The lights in the room were turned on.
Keira Olsen, Lewis Horton, and Holly Sims were sitting in the room watching him.
Keira Olsen knocked on the table, “You heard the interrogation just now, right? You also saw what happened downstairs; so, do you have anything to say to me?”
