Chapter 512

“Dad, did you do anything else than drink?” Natasha pressed on.

“What do you mean?” He was puzzled by her questions.

“Dad, think carefully! You can’t make a mistake here!” She was dead serious.

“I think I blacked out from drinking. I can’t remember a thing. What happened?” Hector frowned softly.

Natasha finally dropped the bomb. “Dad, Sir Moran’s daughter was dead!”

“She’s dead?” He was stunned by the news. “How did that happen?”

“We don’t have the details yet, but rumors had it that you were the murderer!” Natasha informed him.

“Did they say I was the murderer?” He was completely lost. Eyes bulging, he shook his head

vehemently.

“No, that’s impossible! No matter how drunk I am, I would not kill someone!” He might be a lightweight,

but he was a well–behaved drunk. Normally, he’d be dead asleep after he was drunk and never made a

scene.

“I don’t believe them either, but witnesses claimed they saw you murder her. Sir Moran’s forces are at

our door, and they will force their way in at any time! Think carefully! Did you do it or not?” Natasha

growled. The regional deputy chief was the third–in–command in Millsburg, and he had the power to

ruin the Harmons with

a command.

“I–I really can’t recall a thing, but I believe that I would never do that.” Hector furrowed his brows.

“Gosh, Hector, what’s that good for? Sir Moran doesn’t believe that!” Trent shook his head slowly.

“Yeah, Trent, how could you black out from drinking at someone’s birthday event? You do not have

self–control at all!” Jacob seemed disappointed and furious at his sibling. The family had enough on

their plate, and the new accusation added insult to injury.

“Uncle Hector, turn yourself in if you were the culprit. Don’t drag your family into it.” At that moment, a

slender and alluring beauty emerged from the crowd. She was Trent’s eldest daughter, Kate. Trent had

a son and daughter, but after Quentin’s death, Kate immediately came to her father’s side from Stonia.

*Kate Harmon, stop spewing nonsense! My dad is not a murderer!” Ruth glared at her cousin.

“Better not get ahead of yourself. It’s not uncommon for drunk people to commit crimes accidentally. If

Uncle Hector is innocent, why would Sir Moran send his men to arrest him?” Kate remarked as if

stating the obvious.

Ruth was dumbfounded, “You-”

The accusation might be hard to believe, but there was always a dreadful possibility that it might be

true. The problem was that Hector could not recall any memories from that night.

“Could someone have pinned the murder on him?” Dustin blurted out.

Natasha, deep in her thoughts, said, “The possibility has crossed my mind, but I don’t have evidence

for now. We need a detailed investigation,” It was too much of a coincidence for the murder to happen

at that point. She had reason to suspect foul play.

“I heard that Sir Moran’s daughter was murdered after being sexually assaulted. Uncle Hector, did you

get

horny after you were drunk and took advantage of her?” Kate dropped another odd speculation.

“Bullshit! My dad is not a rapist!” Ruth instantly jumped up and down with anger. Natasha and Jessica,

though

quiet, both frowned at the allegation, Kate was an impertinent young lady.

“Kate, stop that nonsense!” Trent berated his daughter. “Your Uncle Hector is a good man. He’ll never

do

anything like that. Someone must have framed him!”

“You’ll never know what a man’s like behind the back. Who knows?” Kate’s reply was loaded.

“That’s enough! Are you going to add to the mess that this family is already in?” Natasha finally

chastised

Kate.

Kate merely sneered. “You shouldn’t be yelling at me. Start worrying about cleaning up your dad’s

mess.”

“You” Natasha was on the verge of an outburst when Jack ran in with urgency. “Ms. Harmon, things are

bad!

The soldiers out there have barged in!”
