They had already obtained the evidence, and the next thing that they needed to do was to search for more clues. So, they were not going to continue wasting any more time at Doris’s villa.Before they left, Waylon told Doris, “Miss Young, I suggest that you leave your house now and head directly to the Silverwing Hospital.”Doris nodded before she said seriously, “Thank you, Captain Skitter. I will pack up some things before driving over there.”Waylon replied, “Alright, then. I will return to the Police Department and organize a task force meeting first. At the same time, if we make any progress during our investigation, I will certainly inform you immediately. However, you and your mother should help us by trying to see if you can recall any useful details or information. Please inform me immediately if you have any new clues.”“No problem! Thank you, Captain Skitter!” After thanking them repeatedly, Doris sent the group of police officers out.Several police cars drove off with

When Doris heard this, she subconsciously lowered her head.At this moment, she could not help but sigh as she thought to herself, ‘The young master is not wrong. This is my father’s exact situation now… his condition is rapidly deteriorating every day, and there seems to be no hope at all…’‘Our only glimmer of hope is the successful kidney source that Edmund has found in the United States…’‘However, the conditions mentioned by Edmund is simply an insult to my personality and character…’‘However, if I refuse to accept his terms, I must be prepared to accept the fact that my father will die at any time…’As she thought about this, Doris felt the tears flooding her eyes. She burst out into tears in an instant, and her teardrops dripped uncontrollably onto the cold concrete floor.Subsequently, all of the negative emotions that Doris had been accumulating and suppressing for so many days suddenly exploded in an instant. She slowly squatted down on the ground as she held onto her

At the same time, Edmund, who was at the Aurous International Hotel, received a phone call from his subordinates.As soon as the line was connected, the other party hurriedly said, “Boss! I heard someone from the inner division of the Aurous Hill Police Department saying that the police have already found a book containing traces of mercury dichloride in Doris’s house! They have already set up a special task force to start tracing clues related to that book!”“What?!” Edmund exclaimed as he blurted out, “Why are the police officers in Aurous Hill so efficient?”The other party replied, “We did not expect them to be so efficient either.”Edmund hesitated for a moment before he said, “Did you guys leave any clues behind when you pretended to be the courier and delivered the package?”The man thought for a moment before he said, “No, there should be none. The car that we used to deliver the package was not a licensed car. So, it will simply be impossible to find any clues. At the sam

The Aurous International Hotel was located in the city center, and it was closer to Silverwing Hospital compared to Doris’s villa community.Therefore, as Edmund got into his Rolls Royce to set off for the hospital, Charlie and Doris were still halfway on their journey to the hospital.When Charlie parked the car and walked into the inpatient building at the Silverwing Hospital, Edmund’s car had just entered the parking lot too.Doris was very excited and nervous at the same time, and she could not help but subconsciously trot a little after taking just two steps. Charlie also sped up his movement as he followed her to the door of the ward.When they pushed the door open and entered the ward, Doris’s mother, Faith, was resting her head on the hospital bed to rest.Although Faith was only in her fifties, she looked very tired and exhausted at this time.Her mental state seemed to be indistinguishable from an old lady who was in her sixties or seventies.As soon as she heard the s

Charlie sneered before he said, “You seem to be talking in a very commanding tone. What on earth gives you the confidence to speak so much nonsense here?”Edmund sneered, and he had an arrogant look on his face as he said, “My name is Edmund Whittaker. You little trickster, have you ever heard of the famous Whittaker family in the United States?”Charlie smiled indifferently before he said, “Sorry, but I have never heard of the Whittaker family that you are talking about.”Edmund replied coldly, “Let me tell you. The Whittaker family is a well-known large real estate developer family in the United States. Our business not only covers the United States, but we also have large industries in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, and also France! We even own a building that has been named after the Whittaker family in Manhattan, New York!”Charlie curled his lips before he smiled and said, “You dare to come to this place and show off just because you own a building named after your fami

In fact, Edmund had a lot of other business requirements for Doris. He even planned to get her to help him hollow out Emgrand Group.Edmund simply did not mention this in front of Charlie.Even though Edmund was very reserved and discrete, Charlie was still very angry and annoyed to the point that it was simply unbearable.Charlie grabbed Edmund by his collar before giving him a tight slap across his face using his other hand!This slap made Edmund feel very dizzy in an instant. It was not only one side of his face that swelled up, but even the corners of his mouth and nostril began bleeding continuously.Just as he was feeling so dizzy that he could hardly stand straight anymore, Charlie said coldly at this moment, “Remember, women are not people that you can insult and humiliate so casually!”Edmund covered his face in pain as he cursed angrily, “You b*stard! You dared to hit me?! No one has ever dared to raise their hand to hit me in my entire life! A b*stard like you actually

Charlie continued grabbing onto Edmund’s fist tightly as he sneered and said, “Why? You are admitting defeat just because you cannot beat me? Is this the so-called style of the Whittaker family?”Edmund really would not have expected Charlie to continue humiliating his family at this time. So, he was naturally very angry and furious.However, he knew very well that the disparity between Charlie and his own strength was simply too great. Therefore, the only way for him to minimize his losses would be to admit defeat at this time.As for the face and reputation that he would lose today, it did not matter much to him. Edmund would just gain all of it back a thousand times more when he had the opportunity to do so!As he thought about this, Edmund immediately laughed as he said, “Master Wade, it is just as what you have just mentioned. The Whittaker family is indeed very powerful and influential in the United States, but this is Oskia. This is Aurous Hill, and I do not have the rights

Edmund thought that he could already escape. Unexpectedly, Charlie suddenly wanted to ask him a question at this time.So, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly turned his head around as he smiled and asked, “Master Wade… what other instructions do you have for me?”Charlie looked at him before he smiled and said, “It’s nothing important. I just wanted to ask you something.”Edmund heaved a huge sigh of relief before he said, “Master Wade, go ahead and ask!”Charlie nodded slightly before he smiled and asked, “Do you know what mercury dichloride is?”Edmund was stunned for a moment, and he had a surprised look on his face as he said, “No… I do not know what that is… what is mercury dichloride?”As he spoke, Edmund suddenly felt as though his heart was beating profusely!Since he had excellent psychological control, he could make sure that the expression on his face was not too obvious.However, Charlie immediately noticed the imperceptible stiffness and wave of panic runni
