One night stand with my president(chapter 586)

 

Chapter 586: He Had No Regrets

Upon hearing the news, Adeline Hensley felt little emotional fluctuation.

When you thought about it, she and Killer had never actually met face-to-face.

He had always wanted to capture her, but now, he was the one who had been caught.

It wasn't hard to understand why he might want to see her in person.

However... she refused.

This Killer was a man with no bottom line, ruthless and vicious, who had caused her so much trouble.

Now, just because he said he wanted to see her, why should she go?

She didn't have time to indulge his obsession.

Since she didn't want to see him, the police naturally didn't force her. They relayed her decision truthfully to Killer.

Killer was already in prison.

Upon learning that Adeline Hensley refused to see him, he simply smiled faintly and said nothing more.

Although he was now a prisoner, his heart was strangely calm.

From the moment he established that organization, he had anticipated this day might come.

It had just arrived sooner than he expected.

All because of that woman, Adeline Hensley.

But he had no regrets.

He never regretted anything he decided to do.

Not getting to see Adeline Hensley with his own eyes was indeed a pity.

But life... how often is it truly perfect?

For someone like him, who had committed countless evils, it was destined that he would spend his life in prison, filled with regrets.

What he didn't know was that at this very moment, Catherine Dillard was in a standoff with people sent by her family.

Her family had learned about her injuries and sent people to fetch her. They had just arrived in Yewhaina when they heard the news of Killer's capture.

So they were determined to take her back home.

But Catherine Dillard refused.

Her eyes red, she said, "I want to stay here and wait for him... wait for him to get out of prison."

She had been feeling disheartened before and had even considered going home.

But she never imagined...

That killer would fail so utterly 

Even ending up arrested and imprisoned.

How could she leave at a time like this?

"Miss, don't be foolish! With his crimes, he will never get out of prison!" the person sent to retrieve her pleaded earnestly. "Even if you wait here your whole life, you'll never see him again. Furthermore, you were part of the organization too. The Yewhainan police are sweeping up the remaining members now-do

you want to go to jail as well?"

Catherine Dillard looked utterly devastated. 

"If ! can never see him again... then what meaning does my life have? And... Krauss Baxter is dead, Joel Baxter is dead too..."

The organization's operation had failed not only due to the police and Harrison Thomson's meticulous arrangements but also because Joel Baxter refused to follow orders.

He had been crazily determined to kill Adeline Hensley.

In the end, the police shot him dead on the spot.

"Before we came, Madam asked us to tell you: you must live for yourself, not for a man-especially a man who doesn't care about you at all! Miss, you grew up in privilege. How can you debase yourself so much for a man now?"

Catherine Dillard didn't know what to say. In the end, she was forcibly taken back home.

Part of her really wanted to hate Adeline Hensley; she felt all of this was Adeline's fault.

But sitting on the plane home, she also felt that hating Adeline Hensley seemed pointless.

And... was it really Adeline Hensley's fault?

Thinking this, Catherine Dillard's heart trembled.

Her thoughts were a tangled mess. The only thing she knew for sure now was that it would probably take her a very long time to heal her heart.

The Yewhainan police continued hunting down the remaining organization members. 

Without Killer, they were indeed a leaderless rabble, being captured one after another.

The gloom that had hung over the Mendoza family for days finally began to dissipate.

Adeline Hensley, Gracie Mendoza, and the others could now frequently visit Isaac Mendoza and Alberto Mendoza in the hospital.

However, during one of Adeline's visits to the hospital, a pair of eyes watched her silently from a dark corner.
