The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 314

She savored the sight of dogs turning on each other, but the best part was yet to come.

She took out her phone and dialed 911.

The police arrived quickly and pulled the two brawling men apart.

“Officer, he—he tried to run me over! He was trying to kill me!” Chasel, his face bruised and swollen, pointed a shaky finger at Zebulon.

Zebulon, clutching his bleeding ear, pointed back. “He took my money and double-crossed me! The liar!”

The officers looked confused. “What exactly happened here?”

Penelope stepped forward, her face a perfect mask of fear. “Officers, they were working together to blackmail me! Then they tried to kill me with the car!”

At her words, both Zebulon and Chasel froze.

“We—we didn’t…”

Penelope pointed at Chasel. “He has the thirty-million-dollar check he extorted from me in his pocket right now!”

An officer immediately searched Chasel and produced the check.

“She—she gave it to me willingly!” Chasel stammered.

“Willingly? You think I’m crazy enough to willingly give you thirty million dollars?” Penelope showed the officer her phone. “He fabricated rumors to defame me and threatened me until I agreed to pay. I had no other choice.”

The check was evidence. The text messages were evidence. Chasel had no way out.

“And what about him?” an officer asked, pointing at Zebulon.

Penelope met Zebulon’s eyes. He was frantically trying to signal her, begging her to spare him.
