My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！

584 Chapter 583

Several people turned their gazes toward Jenkins.

Jenkins took a step forward, glanced at Peter, and then turned her eyes to Susan.

Her gaze was cold, filled with hatred as she stared at Susan.

She asked, “What lifesaver? Did you save Peter’s life?”

She let out a scoff before continuing. “Even if you are, that’s what Peter owes you. What does it have to do with me? Today, you intend to harm my life, and you still expect me to show mercy? You must be dreaming!”

Hearing those words, Keira gave Jenkins a look of admiration.

Keira had been observing Jenkins and found that although the girl came from a poor background and was just a maid, she never wallowed in self-pity. She was always proud and self-respecting when she met her employers.

She carried an innocence that, despite being polished by society for so long, was still not slick and worldly-wise.

Hearing this, Susan swallowed hard. “Jenkins, I apologize for what I did. I truly am…”

However, Jenkins ignored her and picked up her phone again.

Seeing this, Susan immediately shouted, “Jenkins, even if you call the police without evidence, they won’t do anything to me! You’re not dead. Why can’t you let me go?”

Peter was astounded to hear this.

He looked at Susan incredulously, hardly able to believe that these words came from Susan, who he always thought was kind and innocent.

Jenkins replied coldly, “Perhaps if I had died, no one would have reported it for me, right? However, it’s precisely because I’m not dead that I need to seek justice for myself!”

Seeing she couldn’t persuade Jenkins, Susan immediately turned to Peter. “Peter, help me! I can’t go to jail; I didn’t really mean to kill anyone; I just wanted to scare her a little… I didn’t…”

Peter stared at her. “Do you know that your actions have already violated the law?”

“Peter,” Susan pleaded through her tears, trembling all over. “As long as Jenkins doesn’t press charges, there will be no problem. You have to persuade her… please! I saved your life once! Can you ask Jenkins to forgive me?”

Peter was stunned.

Yes, he owed her his life. He clenched his fists and turned to Jenkins.

Seeing his reaction, Jenkins lowered his gaze in disappointment, and with a bitter smile, she asked, “Are you trying to plead for her?”

Peter immediately said, “I’m not. I just…”

He continued. “I owe her my life, Jenkins. I can’t just stand by and do nothing…”

At these words, Susan perked up immediately. “Yes, yes, Peter. I’m still your fiancée. You can’t ignore me…”

Then she turned to Jenkins. “I advise you not to call the police. The Olsen family’s surveillance might already be broken. As long as Peter helps me, this will all blow over. I have a maid that can testify. I was just joking with you earlier!”

Hearing these shameless words, Jenkins couldn’t help but look at Peter again.

She suddenly felt disappointed and sad and had a vague sense of depression. She stared at Peter. “Would you really help her tamper with the surveillance?”

Peter was taken aback.

Susan then looked at him. “Peter! Don’t forget I almost lost my life saving you, and that’s not even mentioning the injury on my arm. You’ll help me, right?”

Peter’s jaw tightened.

He looked at Jenkins again.

Jenkins clenched her fists and then looked at her phone, hesitating whether or not to make the call.

Then, the next moment, she heard Peter’s voice. “I won’t let her just go to jail like this. I owe her my life. Jenkins, I won’t give you the surveillance footage.”

Jenkins gave a bitter smile.

It must have been love for Susan that made Peter act this way. He had always been just and kind, but now, for Susan’s sake, he had also changed.

On the other side, Susan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Eyes gleaming with triumph, she looked at Jenkins and said, “Jenkins, Peter has said it. He won’t pull out the surveillance footage, so don’t waste your effort…”

Jenkins felt like a joke.

Knowing full well that Peter would protect Susan unconditionally, why did she still insist on humiliating herself?

She lowered the phone in her hand.

But the next moment, her wrist was grasped by Peter. As she looked up, she heard him speak, “But if you have been wronged, this is indeed our fault. You should still call the police. When they arrive, I’ll say I told her to do it.”

Jenkins was stunned.

Peter’s gaze was fixed on her. “I know you have always sought true justice in this world. You never bowed your spine when working as a maid. This time, I won’t let you compromise. You’re right. What is owed to Susan is my responsibility, not yours, so it’s only right that I go to jail for her, repaying her for saving my life!”

His words made Jenkins dazed.

Susan shouted in surprise, “Peter! There’s no need for that! As long as you don’t take out the video, or if we go right now and delete the footage from the surveillance room, we can cover this all up! Peter, why bother doing this? Also, if you go to jail, how can we ever get married!”

At Susan’s words, a hint of relief flickered through Peter’s eyes.

For some reason, when Peter made this decision, he felt somewhat relaxed.

Finally, he didn’t have to get engaged or married to Susan…

At that moment, Peter suddenly realized something. He didn’t love Susan. Her favor had bound him, leaving him breathless.

When this opportunity arose, when he could repay this favor, he felt a sudden sense of relief.

He looked Susan in the eye and said softly, “Let’s call off the engagement.”

Susan was completely dumbfounded. “What did you say?”

“I said, I’m going to jail, so let’s call off our engagement,” Peter said again.

Susan was stunned and motionless. Then, suddenly, she lunged at Peter, grabbing his wrist. “Peter, you’re joking, right? I’m sorry! I said I’m sorry!”

But Peter withdrew his hand.

Seeing his reaction, Susan turned abruptly to look at Jenkins. “Jenkins, can you really bear to watch him go to jail? Don’t you know he didn’t sleep at all last night, that he was investigating who the real murderer was the whole time?”

Jenkins looked toward Peter, bewildered.

Peter, however, seemed as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders, and an air of ease surrounded him. He turned to Jenkins. “Jenkins, go ahead and call the police. It’s your right.”

Seeing Peter like this, Jenkins suddenly let out a low chuckle. “Peter, Susan, you win.”

She put down the phone.

Jenkins couldn’t bear to watch Peter take the fall for Susan. She deleted the number from her screen and lowered her gaze. “I won’t call the police.”

Susan immediately exhaled in relief, then rushed to Peter’s side. “Peter, this is great! We can get married again!”

But the next moment, her arm was pushed away by Peter.

Susan was taken aback.

Peter looked at her and said, “Whether Jenkins calls the police or not, I’m calling off our engagement.”
