Chapter 10 After hanging up , I looked at Shaun , mocking him . Chapman , we live in a society governed by law , OK ? Stop thinking youre some underworld boss whos above the law and can lock up anyone as you please . What an idiot . Shaun looked at me with great disbelief . The police arrived within ten minutes and brought us all back to the police station . We have a rough idea of what happened , Mr. The police sighed , scratching his head . Its a big world , and it happens that two people look alike . Becker here indeed isnt your wife . My parents got divorced when I was little , and neither of them cared about me . After I died in that car wreck , my mom went through the death formalities for me and had my ID canceled . Legally speaking , I no longer existed . Arnold arranged for my current ID card , and it was registered in Texas , I had nothing to do with that Mona Becker before the car wreck Chapter 10 whatsoever . Utterly pissed off , Shaun let out a derisive laugh . Texas ? Seriously ? I said , Yes , Arnold lowered his head , trying his best not to laugh out loud . His shoulders kept hitching . Shauns face turned livid . You werent like this , Mona . Im not the Mona you think I am . Turning to the police officer , I asked , Sir , I think his longing for his wife has driven him crazy . He wont come and kidnap me again , will he ? He promised me repeatedly that Los Angeles was pretty safe , and if anything happened , I could call them at any time . Then he even glared at Shaun , his gaze threatening . Chapman , given your wealth and influence , surely , you dont wanna see your scandal everywhere , right ? Shaun had no choice but to sign the statement . One of the cops knew Arnold and volunteered to drive us home . Tate , let me know if anything . So what if hes the heir of the Chapman family ? No one is above the law . Chapter 10 Things here dont work like that . After we came back home , as soon as I closed the door , Arnold held me tightly from behind . I was so scared , Mona . Trembling , he pressed his face against mine . His body temperature was always higher than mine , and I always felt his body was burning hot . In the summer , Id always push him away whenever he wanted to hug me . But today , his body was as cold as an ice cube . Sensing this , I found it hard to blame him . Arnold , could you tell me what exactly happened ? He nodded . Your last phone call three years ago was to me . He told me that in fact , we had been keeping in touch . Those years in Washington D. were tough for me , and I got hurt and sick often . I became a regular at the hospital , where we met again . Seeing an old acquaintance made me very happy , and I thought of him as my life saving straw . I told him whatever happened in my life , including what upset me or made me uncomfortable . He said I didnt deserve this . Chapter He always asked me , Are you happy , Mona ? I shook my head . He held my hand with distress in his ey Have you ever thought of leaving him ? I jerked my hand back as if I were stung by his hand . If I leave Shaun , Ill be even unhappier .
