Rosalie's mood calmed down a little.Byron deeply considered Detective Carter's input, so he asked for some details about his mother-in-law before her death.Rosalie tried her best to recall.At that time, she was too young as she was just around five to six years old. Her memory was vague.She only remembered that her mother had been ill for a long time. However, every time she came home from kindergarten, her mother would smile sweetly and cook all kinds of delicious food for her.Her mother adored flowers and had a lot of potted plants, so many flower pots filled the entire yard.As a result, Rosalie felt that her childhood was accompanied by the fragrance of flowers all year round.At that time, Gordon had just started his business and built a small factory. He often went outstation, and when he came back, he always brought back many small souvenirs and snacks from various places for Rosalie.He would also buy her mom a lot of gifts. Each time, it would be either clothes or
In the police station, Detective Carter drank twice as much coffee to refresh himself. Then, he instructed the police officers to take Violet back to the detention room and stop the interrogation.Immediately, Detective Carter called for a discussion with the two police officers who were interrogating her.However, the results were dismal.Violet was so psychologically tough. Her expression was calm no matter what kind of question was asked.Detective Carter had been observing the changes in her pupils during the interrogation.There was still nothing."I have met suspects like this. Due to all the crimes they've committed, all their guilty conscience and morality have been spent. In their subconsciousness, they convince themselves by self-hypnosis, forcibly suppressing the truth by carving an alternate memory in which they're innocent. Therefore, they can act as if they didn't do it when facing interrogation.”Detective Carter taught the two young police officers.Then, he add
This afternoon, Andrea Quirke, Andrius' younger sister, hurried back from the north.Andrius and Mary went to the airport to pick her up.It had been a long time since Andrius saw her. He was somewhat taken aback when he finally saw her.Even Mary, who was merely an acquaintance of Andrea, found that Andrea had lost a lot of weight.However, she did not look haggard. Instead, she looked accomplished and strong.Andrea smiled when she saw Mary. She rushed over and hugged her."Hello, Sister-in-law. Forgive me for coming back so late. I was delayed because my project just happened to be in a critical period!"Mary was stunned as she felt Andrea's tight hug. She was not sure if she should return the hug or not.As Mary’s arms hovered in mid-air for a few seconds, they finally landed on Andrea's back. She patted her back lightly."It's okay. Everyone's very happy that you've come back!" Mary said with a smile.Such a warm hug puzzled Andrius a little.Immediately afterward, her
Not long after, Lucas and Chloe also came to help.Since Auntie Tamsine's illness was gradually recovering, Lucas' personality had also undergone many changes. He was not as dull as before but slightly carefree and nonsensical.He punched Andrius as he walked up to him. "We made a pact to be single, but you secretly got hitched. How sneaky!"Andrius raised his eyebrows. "If you, Master Montgomery, wanted to get married, the line of women who'd want you would stretch from one end of Coast City to the other. You said it yourself, no?""Really? When did I spew such arrogant nonsense? Hahaha..." Lucas laughed.Then, he came to Byron and Rosalie's side. He immediately restrained himself and asked with concern, "Byron, Sister-in-law, is there anything I can do for you now?"He must be talking about Rosalie's mother.Rosalie shook her head. "Even the police haven't found a breakthrough yet, so there's no rush. Thank you for your concern, Lucas."However, Byron squinted his eyes and sh
When Mary presented the wedding dress, it made Rosalie a little envious.As for Chloe, her eyes were fixed on the dress. She could not help but be envious and jealous.Estie used a lot of velvet and smooth lines in this design. The gown had a light, airy feeling, like a white swan about to spread its wings and take off.There was also a sense of serenity.Mary's figure had always been great, and after putting on this wedding gown, she looked even more exquisite and majestic."It's so beautiful. Estie, you've done your godmother right!" Rosalie sincerely praised Estie, "My daughter is amazing!"That made Mary ask Rosalie to focus on her, the bride.Chloe was astonished to learn that this was designed by Estie, and she was lost for words."So, this wedding dress is exclusively unique in this world. Miss Wilson, this wedding dress suits you!" Chloe praised without hesitation.Mary felt great inside. A sweet smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.‘I don't want to take this o
Mary could not accept such a hefty gift.This was too much!Rosalie smiled casually. "Hurry up and sign it. Don't worry, I've advanced the commencement date, which is before your registration of marriage with Andrius. So, this is considered your pre-marital assets. In this way, you can join the Quirke family with your head held high, okay?"This was because Rosalie once had the same state of mind.Back then, when she married Byron for the first time, she often felt lowly and insignificant.Therefore, she gave her best friend these shares in order to relieve that pressure when facing her future in-laws.Furthermore, Mary was an important member of Petal Talk Group. The hospital she was in charge of was actually the hardest job.After some back and forth, Mary finally agreed and signed the agreement.When Camelia came in, she was in shock to hear her daughter mention the five-billion-dollar gift.She waved her hands quickly. "No way, absolutely not. Rosalie, we both owe you enou
The wedding was an exhausting affair for Andrius and Mary.The newlyweds complained endlessly. They never expected to be so tired.Fortunately, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Andrius pulled Mary in for a passionate kiss after exchanging rings. The wedding ceremony ended successfully."Wow, I never thought Andrius could be so sensual! I guess I was too reserved at the beginning!" Byron looked at his wife with an ambiguous smile.In Rosalie's eyes, she felt that the moment the couple hugged and kissed was so beautiful.She turned around and was pulled into her husband’s embrace, who could not help kissing her passionately too.Fortunately, they were watching the newlywed kiss from a spot backstage. There were not many people around.Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to still behave like lovesick teens considering they were a long-time married couple.When the banquet started, Byron and Rosalie originally planned to stay for the whole event. However, Detective Carter called
In a villa in the suburbs.Violet was fidgeting all over. She held the phone in her hand, checking the clock from time to time.Ethan was lying flat on the sofa. His arms were motionless because of the plaster casts. He was just like a disabled person.He hated Byron so much. ‘Of all the things that wretched man could do, he broke my arms. Now, I can't even play poker or go on my mobile phone.’Ethan murmured disapprovingly at his anxious mother. "Mom, aren't you worrying a little too much? You were unshakeable like a mountain while you were in the police station. Why are you so scared now that you've been released?""What do you know? I'm really worried. Rosalie's wretched mother left behind evidence of our crimes in her heirloom."Violet gave her son a vicious look.Ethan was slightly startled, but then said coldly, "What evidence? What does it have to do with me?! I don't remember whether I was involved or not. You poisoned Rosalie's mother yourself."Violet listened to how
