The Law of Attraction Chapter 668

As Daryl had expected, Karen came back home just an hour after she had left. She had been calling the cook who was unfortunately with the policemen and Daryl had been updated by his friend at the station. The Chef cooperated well with the police by adding more evidence to prove Karen was guilty of her crimes, saving his own ass to lessen his own punishment. The cook turned out to be Karen’s distant relative.

“What is going on here?! Where is everyone?!” Karen yelled when everyone she was looking for, particularly her accomplices, was not in the house.

“You’re back early,” Daryl commented nonchalantly, as he went to the living area while Karen kept yelling for Meng and the others.

“I replaced the helpers with more loyal and honest ones who will not harm anyone in my family,” he added as he calmly sat on the couch and dismissed everyone.

Daryl asked Meng to bring some tea and he poured some into Karen’s cup.

“Drink some tea and try to relax,” he said with a blank expression.

Then with a dark face, Daryl looked at Karen and said, “Go on drink. Don’t worry, I did not add poison to it so it’s safe for you. Unlike what you were serving to my father.”

In that instant, Karen’s face paled and her body trembled. Daryl had found out about it!

“What are you saying? How dare you say such horrible things to me!!!” she managed to yell. She had been caught off guard.

“Marius. Where is Marius?” she shouted and quickly stood up to run to Marius’ room, leaving Daryl sitting in the living room. She hurriedly went into their room and threw herself at him seeing he was on the couch listening to music.

Marius’ eyes were closed. He smelled Karen’s familiar scent and felt her arms around him. He bit his inner cheeks as he controlled the mixed feelings all over his body.

“Marius, something is off with Daryl. He replaced all the helpers in the house. He is planning something against me. He is saying something about me poisoning you. How could I do that to the man I have loved my whole life,” she quickly mumbled, formulating an alibi like before so it would be Daryl who would look bad to Marius. 

She was sobbing hard. She had not seen this coming so her mind was in total chaos trying hard to think how she could escape.

She could not even call Harry for help because her son was not aware of any of it. Harry loved Marius like his own father and he was against making any move that would harm Marius so she had done everything on her own.

“Come clean now, Karen. It’s all over,” Marius weakly whispered. He had just got a shot from the doctor to neutralize his body from the poison. Thankfully, Daryl had discovered everything early and it was not too late yet for him to get proper treatment for it.

“What are you saying?! I didn’t do anything wrong here! I’m being framed and I don’t know anything! I have a clean conscience, Marius! I did not do that to you!!!” Karen stated hysterically as she continued to sob.

With trembling hands, she quickly dialed Harry’s number.

“Son, come quick and save me. They are framing me for something I didn’t do,” she screamed into the phone. The door opened and it was Daryl with the policemen behind him.

“The warrant of arrest has been issued. The police are here to take you, Karen,” Daryl said and signaled the police to do their job.

“No!!!” Karen screamed and was about to run to the window but the police managed to get hold of her and put the handcuffs on her.

“Marius, please believe me. I love you! I  did not do that to you! I am being framed here!” Karen yelled as the police dragged her out of the room.

Daryl looked at his father whose eyes were still closed but he could see the tears rolling down on his cheeks. 

“Go on, Son. I’m okay… I just want some time alone… Go and take care of the things you need to take care of. Ask Meng to come here.” he heard his father instruct, so Daryl obliged. 

He would have liked to have Kenzie there with him but his wife had a lot of things to attend to herself, so he did not want to take up much of her time.

He could still hear Karen’s frantic screams as he went outside. He watched the police car leave and he was about to go get into his car when Harry arrived. He practically jumped out of the car and ran towards Daryl.

“What’s going on? Where’s my mother?” Harry screamed with a dark face.

“She’s in the police car, Harry, for a case of attempted murder,” Daryl whispered and gave Harris the details of where he could see his mother.

“If you too are proven to be an accomplice, Harris,  I will make sure you too will rot in jail for a long time. You have one whole day to get your things and your mother. I don’t want to see your face in our house ever again,” Daryl stated. Harry could not believe what he just heard.

He looked at the mansion flowing with armed men.

“Sir, I will escort you if you need to go in,” said one of the men in uniform who approached them.

He did not need anything to take with him! What he wanted to do was just see his father and ask him what had happened! He wanted to talk to his father.

“I want to talk to my father!” he yelled.

Daryl signaled the man to let Harry enter and he followed behind.

Harry entered the room where his father was still sitting on the couch.

“Father,” he whispered as he walked towards Marius.

“What’s going on, Father?” Harry asked.

“Son… I too had hoped that this was just a dream. But it’s real. I can’t believe your mother was trying to kill me slowly.” The pain in Marius’ voice was overwhelming. He coughed and Daryl quickly ran to his father’s side.

“Go now, Harry, and it’s better you ask your mother about this. Father is on medication to treat the poison already in his body so he needs proper rest right now, so leave!” Daryl said authoritatively.

Harry was out of himself. He could not believe his mother would do something like that. He walked out of the room with heavy footsteps.
