“How did you know that I was playing with your phone?”
Fia blinked and lied, mumbling, “I heard Silas give you my phone.”
Silas was confused. “I didn’t say anything of the sort?”
“Is that so? Then you must have forgotten about it. Silas, you must be working very hard to the point of forgetfulness.”
Silas scratched his head, still confused.
He had forgotten?
Conrad looked at Fia suspiciously. He felt that something wasn’t right. But looking at her calm expression, nothing felt out of place.
Meanwhile, Fia was complaining inside. ‘You used my phone for so long. Even though I have severe myopia, I definitely didn’t see it wrongly!”
“Where’s my phone?” She extended her hand.
Conrad immediately placed the phone on her palm.
She held it and snorted. “And you said that you didn’t use my phone… It’s all hot right now!”
Conrad scratched his nose. He miscalculated.
“Now. Be honest. What did you do to my phone?”
Silas looked at Conrad pitifully before interrupting, saying, “Mr. Maxwell, the police have already taken the suspect away.”
Conrad frowned. “Who called the police?”
Silas carefully glanced at Fia without saying anything.
Conrad immediately thought of Jason. Originally, he had Silas withhold the driver so that they could have a chance to interrogate him first!
Silas quickly said, “He’s injured too and he’s in this hospital as well. But there are officers guarding him.” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Conrad frowned and said, “Have Tiger investigate his background. Afterward, ask Director Parker for a favor and see if we can participate in the interrogation.”
“Sure!”
After Silas left, Fia asked, “How’s Lyn?”
“She’s fine. She doesn’t even have to get admitted.
Conrad said with a dark expression, “Why did you pounce on him after you unbuckled the seatbelt?! Do you have a death wish?!”
His tone was somewhat angry. Fia shrunk and said, “I was getting nervous. I was worried that he
would take us all into River Fane. You know that I can’t swim.”
Conrad remembered that the scene of the accident was not too far from River Fane. When he remembered the situation she was in, he felt even more regretful.
“Once you’ve recovered, I’ll teach you how to swim.”
“But I think I’m too stupid. I don’t think I can learn how to swim.”
“I’ll teach you very patiently.”
Mapleland, a country overseas.
In a three-storey building, a woman wearing a half-transparent silk gown with a golden mask covering only half her face was swirling the wine in her glass as she sat in front of a table.
The door opened. A man changed his shoes and pulled the necktie from his neck before glaring at the woman coldly.
“You arranged for someone to kidnap Fia?”
“Yes!” The woman smiled as she stood up excitedly. “How did it go? Did it succeed? Is she dead?”
The man hurried over and slapped her face. The mask fell on the ground. The woman turned around and looked at the man with a pair of teary eyes, her face red and bruised.
“Why did you hit me, Mr. Green?”
“Fool! Even I won’t be able to save you if they get suspicious and find you by tracing the crumbs you left behind by being this impatient!”
“Ha! How can they find me?” The woman swayed before finishing her glass of wine and then poured another glass.
The man grabbed the glass away from her and threw it on the ground. The wine stained her pale legs.
She said with a smile, “You had someone change my DNA profile in their database with that poor scapegoat. Even if they check my blood, they won’t find out that I’m Esme Manning!”
Peter grabbed the woman by the neck and said, “How many times do I have to tell you? Forget about Esme Manning. Your name is Britney Thomas now!”
“Britney Thomas? Hahaha…”
In order for her to become Britney Thomas, he had given all of Britney’s information to her so that she could study them.
Looking at the man in front of her, Esme couldn’t help but feel sorry for her scapegoat, Britney.
“She loved you so much. How could you do it?”
Peter threw Esme aside and stepped on her leg, crushing it slowly under his foot./ Murderous intent filled his gentle face. “It’s all thanks to you that I’ve become like this!”
