The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

When Jacelyn saw that Chloe's face was swollen after getting beaten up, she was a little shocked and could not help but blurt out, "What... What happened to you?!"

Chloe broke down emotionally at this time. She had originally regarded Jacelyn as her savior, but in the blink of an eye, Jacelyn had also become a prisoner. She felt extremely desperate at this point and blurted out, "Don't worry about me, tell me what is going on with you first..."

Jacelyn said with great pain, "Isn't it all because I collaborated with you to sell the cigarettes at a high price? It's all that damned 1024's fault... Her family member brought a million US dollars in cash to buy a thousand cigarettes from my sister in one go. My sister had just put the cigarettes together, and the next thing I knew, the FBI had arrested me before I could even get off work..."

"What did you say?!"

Chloe exclaimed and then blurted out, "1024's family bought a thousand cigarettes? Didn't we agree on only buying two today?!"

Jacelyn clenched her teeth and said, "They bought two at first, but later, they then came over to buy a thousand cigarettes in one go."

Chloe questioned her immediately, "Why didn't you tell me about this?! Were you planning to keep the money for yourself?"

Jacelyn cursed, "Stop talking f*cking nonsense! Your time to unwind had already passed, so how was I supposed to tell you about it? I planned to make the money first before telling you about this matter tomorrow, but unexpectedly, the FBI came and arrested me!"

Chloe then asked again, "So, what charge are you arrested for?"

Jacelyn said dejectedly, "I am now under suspicion of accepting bribes, using my power for personal gain, and extortion..."

Chloe asked in horror, "Your suspicion of extortion has nothing to do with me, does it?"

Jacelyn smiled wryly and said, "Chloe, don't forget that you came up with the idea of extortion, and you were the one who coerced all these people, including 1024. So, when the time comes for the court hearing, I would only be an accessory, and you will be the principal offender!"

"What did you just say?!" Chloe suddenly felt dizzy.

She was considered to be a veteran in the prison. After seeing many different kinds of prisoners here, she had mastered almost more than half of the content of the US Federal Criminal Code without anyone's guidance.

Chloe simply needed to listen to the other party's description of the crime to know what kind of crime the person would be convicted of and the possible length of the person's sentence.

The extortion of more than one million US dollars would have reached the maximum penalty for extortion. As the principal offender, coupled with her previous sentence, wouldn't she have to spend the rest of her life in prison?!

Chloe was in despair when she

thought of this. She looked at Elaine and asked in tears, "Who... Who are you?! Why did you get arrested for carrying contraband if your family is so powerful?! No, why were you carrying contraband if your family is so powerful? You... You're a swindler, aren't you? Is there something wrong with you?!"

Elaine felt very aggrieved and uncomfortable when she thought of this matter, and she thought to herself, 'D*mn it! My son-in-law is powerful and could find such amazing connections in New York, but as his mother-in-law, I was actually played like a fool by Lucy and Clarissa. I've really made a huge blunder. The more I think about it, the angrier I am!'

Elaine became even more furious when she thought of how Chloe had said that she was just swindling others just now. She raised her hand and continued hitting Chloe fiercely as she cursed angrily, "Who the f*ck do you think you are? You actually dare to mock me?! Let me tell you, I was framed!"

Chloe was beaten until she almost fainted. When it seemed like Elaine had no intention to stop hitting her after a long time, she suddenly cried out and begged, "Elaine, please forgive me! I will really die if you continue hitting me..."

Elaine slapped her again and said, "F*ck you! Who said that you could call me Elaine?!"

Chloe's face was beaten until it was extremely swollen. She was in extreme pain, and it was not just Elaine who was not soft-hearted at all even though Chloe pleaded with her, but even the other inmates and Chloe's previous confidantes were all cheering secretly.

In truth, they had been suffering

under Chloe's reign. Most of the other inmates were extremely dissatisfied with Chloe's bullying behavior, and most of them had been scolded and beaten up by her before. They finally felt the pleasure of getting revenge when they saw that this former female devil had finally ended up in such a pitiful state! noveldrama

At this time, Elaine was also tired after hitting Chloe.
