Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

He picked up the necklace, holding it in his hand and confirming once again.

Sion noticed something suspicious and decided to ask Nevaeh about the necklace later.

Coincidentally, Nevaeh walked out of the storage room with two dirty and blood-stained clothes in her hands at this moment.

Sion recognized one of the clothes at a glance. They were the three thugs’ clothes, which had been changed and left in the underground parking lot.

“Sion, this is the evidence I told you about,” Nevaeh said first while paying attention to his expression.

“Where did you get that?” Sion’s voice was heavy as he stared coldly at her.

“You should know Karen. When I went to their company to find her that day, I accidentally saw these clothes when I left.” She calmly explained. “I knew you were looking for the kidnappers so I thought this might be evidence.”

However, Sion’s face did not ease up; on the contrary, it became even colder than before.

“How do you know these are the kidnappers’ clothes?” His eyes seemed capable of seeing through everything around him.

Under his gaze, Nevaeh felt momentarily flustered but quickly regained her composure. “There are bloodstains on these clothes and they’re so torn up. They must have been worn by bad guys…”

Sion didn’t seem to believe her words.

“I mean, how do you know they’re the clothes of whom I’m looking for?”

Nevaeh froze for a moment; she hadn’t expected him to latch onto such a small detail from what she had said earlier. She panicked inside and couldn’t control herself from fidgeting with her toes. “I’ve seen pictures you gave me before, don’t you remember, Sion?”

Sion listened with surprise written all over his face. He never showed her any picture. He didn’t think there was anything wrong with his memory. Besides, he found the necklace here, thus he started wondering if Nevaeh was involved with those thugs. The idea shook him deeply, and he could hardly believe it himself. As for the necklace, now was not the right time to ask her about it.

Sion suppressed his suspicions and turned his deep gaze towards her. “Since that’s the case, I’ll head back first. If you find any more clues, contact me.”

Nevaeh was sweating the whole time as she tightly grasped onto her clothes at the side. She was observing the emotions in this man’s eyes. But she had never been able to read him.

“Alright then, drive safely on your way back.”

She now didn’t have any reason to keep him here anymore, especially with this man’s shrewdness, she might end up exposing even more emotions if he stayed longer.

Sion gave her a deep look before leaving with the kidnapper’s clothes without saying another word.

Nevaeh watched him leave with regret. Not only did she not make any progress with him, but she also exposed some loopholes instead. He always had meticulous thoughts; maybe he could guess something from her reaction. Nevaeh cursed angrily under her breath. She should have thought ahead about how to deal with Sion’s questions or just shouldn’t have taken out those clothes at all.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Now all she hoped for was that Sion would believe what she said.

After taking the clothes downstairs and throwing them into the trunk of his car, Sion quickly sat in the driver’s seat and called David on his phone.

“Mr Carroll, what can I do for you?”

“I need you to check whether there is any connection between these three thugs and the necklace I bought in the Cabinet of Memory.”

If they were also responsible for robbing that necklace then it could be confirmed that Nevaeh indeed had an inseparable relationship with them. Maybe Nevaeh would be the one behind everything.

Thinking about this possibility made Sion’s expression turn cold as ice.

His voice became stern which made David realize how serious things were.

“Mr Carroll, do we have leads on these people?”

“Not sure.”

All they needed was evidence now.

“I see,” David replied before hanging up.

Sion looked towards Nevaeh’s house, feeling complex emotions stirring within himself. He had known Nevaeh for many years and always believed that she had a kind heart, so even though there were misunderstandings between them 8 years ago during the earthquake, he never intended on blaming her for something. But if this had something to do with her, then it could be said that he had been completely wrong about her all these years. Everything would have to wait until David got the evidence.

Sion didn’t dwell on it further. He pressed the vehicle start button and turned the steering wheel, ready to leave.

Suddenly, an unexpected incident occurred. Sion had barely any time to react as the car suddenly veered out of control towards a nearby green belt when he tried to turn around. No matter how much he turned the steering wheel or stepped on the brakes, it was all in vain.

His expression changed as he reached for his seatbelt. However, things did not go according to plan-before his hand could even touch the buckle slot of his seatbelt, his entire seat shook violently up and down and left and right without any rhyme or reason.

It was even more insane than some amusement park rides. He could only rely on his seatbelt’s function to keep himself from being thrown out of his seat.

Not far away from there, Theodore saw everything happening before him, satisfied with what he saw. Sion’s luxury car was bouncing around in the green belt area.

Theodore made a face in Sion’s direction before turning around confidently and leaving this place behind.

At the same time, Aurora was at work when she received L’s message; she became so excited that she didn’t even care about an ongoing meeting halfway through and she rushed back into her office after receiving L’s voice message, “The surveillance is back online now. I’ve copied all videos related to Nevaeh and sent them over to your email.”

Aurora couldn’t help but feel her heart racing faster upon hearing this news, wondering if there came a result of everything.

Her fingers trembled slightly as they hovered over her screen.

“Okay then, thank you so much, Mr L.”

After the call, Aurora snapped out of her daze quickly by turning on her computer. L had kindly edited all clips together, making them very convenient for viewing purposes too.

After confirming the face of the one in the video, Aurora felt like a huge weight had been lifted off from within herself. The images weren’t very clear but glimpses were showing Nevaeh along with several thugs passing by.

It was Nevaeh who had set free those criminals.

With irrefutable evidence now available, she knew Nevaeh wouldn’t be able to run away anymore.
