According to what Xavier had told her, his ring was found on Arabella's body. Only someone who was able to get his hands on Xavier's ring would be able to frame him. And that person could be Mr. Wallace.
"I didn't want to tell anyone because I was too scared to say anything. If I'm right, Mr Wallace would come after me once I open my mouth and spill anything. I know that what I did was wrong. I witnessed a murder and kept quiet about it. It's a crime but I only did it to save myself. I only wanted to live a normal life—"
"That's why you traveled out of the country so you wouldn't be questioned," Tracie finished but Fiona shook her head.
"My family has interacted with the Wallace family before, and he's a dangerous man. If he was the one that got Arabella murdered, what more about me? Forget that I'm from an influential family, he could easily annihilate me and make it look like an accident if I spewed anything," Fiona explained as she tried to wipe her tears from her cheeks.
