Chapter 510

“Sorry, I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Harvey said calmly.

He added in a steady tone, “As far as I know, the one responsible for such an appalling act in our family is my uncle, Brad, and he’s already been taken into custody by your department. Now you’re here again—so I have to ask, do you even have evidence?”

Harvey forced himself to remain composed, ensuring he did not give anything away. After all, he had only issued orders and stayed in the shadows.

As long as no one caught him red-handed, his position as the head of the Weller family would shield him from arrest.

One of the officers spoke coldly, “We do have evidence. According to the kidnappers’ confessions, they were hired by your family’s butler.”

The officer continued, “So, we’ll be taking Mr. Alfie Daves, your butler, into custody. You don’t have any objections to that, do you, Mr. Weller?”

Harvey clenched his teeth and said nothing, though rage boiled inside him. Suddenly, with a loud thud, Alfie dropped to his knees, trembling, his lips pale as he looked up at Harvey with desperate, pleading eyes.

Harvey wanted nothing more than to kick Alfie—why was this fool begging him? Did he want to drag him down with him?

“Take him away!” barked the officer, motioning for his team.

As Alfie was dragged off, he cried out in desperation, “Sir, please save me! You promised I’d be safe! I’ve served the Weller family faithfully for years—are you really just going to let me lose everything like this?”

His wails were pitiful, echoing through the room, but Harvey kept his face stoic and cold. He knew saying too much would only expose himself further.

“Harvey, you monster! How could you do this to me?” Alfie suddenly exploded: “You ordered me to hire those kidnappers! Everything was done under your command. Why should I sacrifice myself for you?”

The officers paused, looking at Harvey. “Mr. Weller, is this true?”

Harvey thundered, “Absolutely not! Every word from this traitor’s mouth is a lie. He ate our food and lived off our family’s generosity. I only kept him as a butler out of respect for my late father. Now he not only shows no gratitude but tries to frame me! Even if you weren’t arresting him, the Weller family would never tolerate such a person!”

The officers said nothing more and continued escorting the butler out.

Even as they reached the driveway, Alfie’s angry screams echoed back into the mansion. “Harvey, you’re a murderer, a traitor, and a disgrace! You and that whore Serena killed your own father!”

He continued, “You think your filthy secrets can stay buried forever? I’ll make sure everyone knows about your affair with her and all the rotten things you’ve done! You’re a fraud, a snake! The Weller family is doomed under you!”

The curses clawed at Harvey’s mind, making him shake with unbridled rage. His entire body trembled, and his fists clenched tightly enough to crack bone. If he could, he would have stormed outside and torn the man apart limb by limb.

Brad was already behind bars, and now Alfie had followed. Harvey himself was precariously dancing on the edge of the abyss, one misstep away from ruin.

“No, Brad and Alfie have to go,” Harvey murmured, having decided instantly. He knew he had to silence them permanently.
