Chapter 135

“Debra, this is all Stanley’s fault. I’ll take him to the police station and let the police handle it,” Ralph said.

Stanley was exasperated. “Dad! How could you send me to the police station?”

“You reap what you sow. This is already lenient for you.” If Marion had handled this privately, Stanley would have been dead.

“Uncle Ralph, you don’t have to do that,” Debra said calmly. “He’s unreliable because Aunt Rosalie spoils him too much.”

Ralph nodded. “Exactly! He’s lawless now.”

“Yesterday, Stanley came to talk to me about the distribution of Frazier family property. I merely said a few words, and he wanted to kill me. That’s a serious lack of upbringing.”

“What property distribution?” Ralph was bewildered.

Stanley’s face flushed red. “Shut up!”

“You shut up!” Ralph snapped, kicking him. “You brat, I’m not dead yet, and you’re eyeing the family fortune?”

“I didn’t!” Stanley’s bravado weakened. He would not admit to it whatsoever.

Debra said nonchalantly, “It’s not entirely Stanley’s fault. Someone must have been instigating him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be talking like this.”

Ralph understood that Debra was referring to Rosalie. He had always doted on Rosalie, so he turned a blind eye to her misdeeds. But now his beloved woman was coveting his fortune, which infuriated him to no end.

Initially, threatening to take Stanley to the police station was a spur-of-the-moment anger. But now, he made up his mind and grabbed Stanley, saying, “You’re going to turn yourself in. Unless you learn your lesson in jail, you won’t change.”

“Are you serious? I’m your son! Can you bear to see me in jail?”

“I don’t have a son like you! When you come out of prison, I won’t give you a single penny.”

Ralph fished out his phone and said, “If you don’t turn yourself in, I’ll personally take you to the police station.”

Stanley was frightened by Ralph’s fierce look. With one last resentful glance at Debra, he got up and walked away. He could turn himself in; Debra wasn’t badly hurt anyway. Even if he got detained, he would come out soon.

After Stanley left, Ralph had someone secretly monitor him. Debra tried to soothe him. “Uncle Ralph, take it easy. Perhaps a few days of education in jail will straighten Stanley out.”

Ralph nodded. “I’m sorry for what happened to you. I raised such a scoundrel.”

Debra shook her head and asked, “How did you find out the truth?”

“Stanley wiped out the surveillance footage. Marion brought evidence and demanded severe punishment.”

“Marion?” Debra was stunned. It had been only an hour after he learned about the accident. “How did he gather evidence so quickly?” she wondered.
