My gorgeous wife is an ex-convict (Grace) novel Chapter 3499

Chapter 3499 

Downstairs, a car slowly drove out of the community. 

Inside the car, Veronica kept her head down, silent and contemplative. 

Mason tightly held Veronica’s hand. 

“What are you thinking about?” After a while, his voice echoed 

in the car. 

“Nothing…I’m not thinking about anything,” Veronica 

murmured. 

Mason’s gaze deepened slightly. “I thought we were the closest people to each other! Aren’t we?” 

Veronica hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m just thinking about Lionel.” 

“What do you hope will happen to him?” he asked. 

“What will happen to him?” Veronica asked in return. 

“Now those kidnappers all say he’s the mastermind behind the scenes. They were recruited by him online, and even the

money used to buy weapons was given by Lionel. Once the 

charge of being the mastermind is confirmed, even if he’s still a minor, the crime won’t be taken lightly. It’s enough to 

sentence him to ten years in prison!” Mason said. 

Ten years… Veronica was taken aback. Ten years of 

imprisonment, even though Lionel is still young, but ten years, which should have been the golden time for studying, if he really goes to jail, then Lionel’s life will be hopeless. 

Moreover, based on her understanding of Lionel, even if he 

behaves recklessly, he should at least know what is important and what is not. He should know better than to kidnap Jasper, especially when Jasper and she entered the private room together. Lionel should have stopped this plan! 

Why still… 

“What… How did Lionel respond to this? What did he say in his 

statement?” Veronica asked. 

“I’m not sure,” Mason said. “Does Veronica think he could be 

the mastermind?” 

“I don’t know,” Veronica said. “Mason, I don’t want Lionel to be 

falsely accused, and I also don’t want him to really spend ten years in prison. Can you help him? I think there must be some 

hidden truth in all of this.”

Even though she may not like her stepmother, she doesn’t

hold any major grudges against her half-brother Lionel. In fact, it could be said that Lionel has been trying to please her all these years, and even though his efforts may have been calculated, she still has some sibling affection towards him. 

Human emotions tend to accumulate little by little over the 

years. 

“Is Veronica feeling sorry for him?” Mason asked in a low 

voice. 

“Hmm?” Veronica was taken aback, then she bit her lip slightly. 

“What did he say? He’s still my brother, and we’ve been 

together for so many years. I believe he doesn’t have the guts
