The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Elaine said aggrievedly, "I really didn't expect that these people could be so shameless to this extent."

The woman chuckled and said lightly, "What is this? You've not been in the United States for long, I see. You can encounter anything if you just stay a little longer."

Having said that, she asked Elaine, "Do you know how I got in here?"

Elaine shook her head and asked blankly, "How did you get locked up in here?" The woman laughed and said, "Because I sold hairy crabs..."

Elaine was puzzled and asked, "How can you get locked up in prison for just selling hairy crabs? Is it because they were of inferior quality or is it because of shortage in the weight?"

The woman shook her head and said, "You might not know this, but hairy crabs are an invasive species in this part of the United States. Selling hairy crabs here is essentially an illegal act."

Elaine asked in surprise, "Why are you still selling them when it's against the law?"noveldrama

The woman smiled wryly and said, "Everyone used to sell them secretly in the past, and they were all sold to our Oskian compatriots. As you know, Oskians love eating hairy crabs, especially when we miss food from Oskia when we are in the United States. So, we found some channels to import a batch of hairy crabs. On one hand, we can earn some money, and on the other hand, we can also help our compatriots feel as if they are back at home. This kind of trading can only be done in private and is only done amongst the Oskian circle, so it has always been very safe..."

Elaine hurriedly asked, "How did something happen when it has always been safe?"

The woman sighed and said, "I

bought a batch of hairy crabs some time ago, and it sold out very quickly because of the good quality and it was inexpensive. An Oskian man heard about it and drove a long way to buy the hairy crabs, but they were already sold out when he arrived. He was very angry, so he called the police, and the police came to arrest me."

Elaine was dumbfounded and blurted out, "There can actually be such a thing?!"

"That's right." The woman laughed in a self-reproachful manner and said, "That's the reason why I told you just now that you have to always be vigilant in the United States, and you shouldn't trust anyone casually."

With that said, she lowered her voice

and said earnestly, "When you

helped the few of them seek justice,

I wanted to find an opportunity to remind you, but I never had the opportunity to talk to you. They were not bullied like they told you. In truth, they have always been competing with that American woman for the position of the boss of the cell, but they were short-handed, and their methods were not as ruthless as the other party. Therefore, the other party always suppressed them, and they failed to achieve what they wished for."

"Later, when they saw that they could not beat the other party, they came to you directly to ask for your help. You gave the order for the American woman to be maimed, and they managed to become the boss without any problem at all."

When Elaine heard this, she trembled with anger, clenched her teeth, and said, "Damn it! They are really good actresses! Back then, they knelt before me and cried,

saying that the American wet

had been bullying them all the time and didn't even treat them as human beings. I felt sorry for them because I thought that they were really being bullied. That is why I helped them..."

The woman opposite Elaine smiled slightly and said, "There are basically not many pitiful people who would enter a place like this. Most of the people are here because they deserve it for their crimes! Treat this as a lesson, and you have to be careful with your judgment when you meet people in the future."

Elaine felt angry and regretful, but she knew that there was no point even if she had regrets. So, she asked the woman, "Why are you telling me all this?"

The woman said indifferently, "I feel that you're not really a bad person. You might be a little crazy, but you still have some conscience. Otherwise, you wouldn't have helped them for no reason at all, so I thought of reminding you about it."

Elaine immediately felt ashamed and sobbed, "If I would have known that they were so shameless, I wouldn't have helped them even if they would have died if front of me!"

With that said, Elaine lamented, "If I would have known that things would turn out this way, I wouldn't have been so high-profile even if I were to get beaten to death... I don't know how many people in Bedford Hills Correctional Facility want to get me killed now. I'm really afraid that I'll not be able to make it through today alive..."
