She began to panic in her heart. If the police asked her that, then they definitely knew something. However, unlike what she thought, the police officer just continued to ask some seemingly insignificant questions before letting her go.
After leaving the police station, Naya went straight back to her apartment. She was restless. After a while, she drove out. After circling the city center, she could not help but head to one place and stopped her car there.
After driving there, Naya was a little hesitant as she sat in the car. However, since she was here, how could she go back at this time?
Hence, she had to go.
After Naya thought about it, she got out of the car and walked straight toward one of the parking spaces. ‘
On that day, she did not think that she was photographed by anyone or captured by any surveillance cameras. However, she was not so sure anymore.
It was because the police had approached her for questioning. The reason why the police did this must be that they had some evidence.
When she thought of this, Naya’s heartbeat became unstable.
She could not escape from this, so she had to go back to the crime scene to see if there was any evidence left behind that could be used against her.
However, Naya’s footsteps suddenly stopped. From a distance, she seemed to see a familiar figure hovering near the parking space in front. Naya stopped abruptly and stepped back to the edge of the pillar.
She was not mistaken. The woman in sight was Niamh.
However, why was Niamh here?
Naya was full of doubts and wanted to get a closer look but was afraid of being discovered.
At this time, Niamh seemed to have spotted something on the floor. She suddenly squatted down to pick it up.
“Kendrick, what do you think this is?” Niamh picked up something and suddenly raised her eyes, speaking to the person in front.
Only then did Naya realize that Kendrick was there too.
Naya was getting more and more flustered now. ‘ Kendrick is here too? What does that mean?’
Naya did not dare to think too much, so she retracted her head behind the pillar.
In the distance, she vaguely heard the conversation between Niamh and Kendrick. “Kendrick, what do you think this is? This should be something only girls have, right?”
“Could this be Ava’s? This is her parking space. It’s not surprising that she might have dropped something here.”
“No, Ava wouldn’t like such accessories.” Niamh denied. :
Upon hearing this, Naya felt a thin layer of sweat on her palms.
She subconsciously looked at the accessories she was wearing, wondering if it was a ring ora bracelet that had fallen near the parking space. If her belongings were found here, it would be difficult for her to justify herself.
However, what was it?
‘Kendrick, it seems that someone other than Chloe and that man she hired were here. That person is probably the one who tampered with Ava’s car.” + Niamh analyzed the situation, and upon hearing this, Naya became more and more uneasy. The cold sweat on her palms increased as well.
‘How is this possible? How do they know that the accident was caused by someone else? Do they really have any relevant evidence?’
Naya made a guess and stuck her head out a little to look over.
At this moment, Niamh and Kendrick were looking down at the ground as if they were still looking for something.
“Kendrick, are the results of what I asked you to investigate this morning reliable?”
“It’s reliable.” Kendrick assured. “The man who broke into Ava’s car didn’t do anything to the car. After he went back, he showed off to his group of friends that he received money after he got into the car and put on a show. That night, he used that money to go to the bar to have a good time. He spent all of the money in one night.
“That said, he did not lie and the police even dida polygraph test on him. He passed the test. It seems that someone else tampered with Ava’s car.”
Niamh lifted the thing she just picked up. “That person is most likely the person who left this object.”
“I think so too.” Kendrick agreed. He raised his eyes and looked around. “Unfortunately, this is a blind spot for the surveillance cameras. And the police have investigated everything they could. Nia, let’s go back.”
Kendrick’s words reassured Naya.
The absence of surveillance footage was to her advantage.
However, before she could feel happy for a few more seconds, she suddenly heard that Niamh seemed to have found something important. ‘Kendrick, look at the surveillance camera over there. Do you think it can film what’s going on at this spot?”
Kendrick looked in the direction Niamh pointed and pondered for a few seconds. “Nia, come on. Let’s go to the apartment building’s surveillance room.”
“Okay.” Niamh took Kendrick’s hand, and the two left immediately.
Naya hid behind the pillar, listening to the sound of Niamh’s and Kendrick’s footsteps getting farther away. After that, she slowly walked out of her hiding place.
She vigilantly looked around, then walked cautiously to the parking space of Ava’s car.
The parking space was empty and there was nothing here, but she wondered if she had really dropped something here when she was not paying attention.
Naya did not dare to waste any time and quickly searched around. Luckily, and somewhat surprisingly, she indeed saw something that belonged to her.
It was a brooch that fell over the gutter, but since the brooch was slightly larger, it got stuck in the notch.
Naya picked it up without hesitation and stuffed it into her pocket. She did not forget to continue searching around the parking space to make sure everything was fine before leaving.
She avoided the surveillance cameras and returned to her car as fast as she could. Her hand that was holding the steering wheel started trembling a few times.
After taking a deep breath, Naya took out the brooch hidden in her pocket and looked at it absent – mindedly.
She was suddenly a little confused. Did she wear this brooch that day?
However, this brooch was indeed hers.
Naya did not think much of it and quickly drove away.
In the distance, Niamh and Kendrick sat quietly in their car, watching Naya’s car get farther and farther away until it disappeared into the traffic. I Niamh looked at the thing she had just picked u p from the ground with heavy eyes. The guesses in her heart had been confirmed.
Hospital.
Ava stayed by Daniel’s bed all day and all night. Early next morning, she thought Niamh would bring her breakfast again. She did not expect Raegantocome. :
Ava had mixed feelings once again when she was looking at the breakfast Raegan brought her. Raegan was a little uncomfortable when she saw that Ava seemed to be at a loss, but she still smiled. “Ava, this is the breakfast I made myself. You might not like the taste, but it should be okay. You should go wash up first and eat something. I’l] help you watch Daniel.”
Ava looked at the breakfast Raegan had placed on the coffee table. There were different kinds of breakfast with plenty of choices for her.
It was probably because Raegan did not know what she liked, so she made a lot of food to let her choose. Ava did not know what to say for a while, but there was already a surge of warmth in her heart.
After Ava finished washing up, she picked up the buns and ate them. It was unknown if it was because she had not eaten buns for a long time, Ava actually thought they were delicious.
Raegan quietly watched Ava eating the breakfast she made, and while watching, she noticed tears falling from Ava’s eyes.
Raegan’s heart ached. She did not think much before she went straight to Ava’s side and sat down.
“Ava,” Raegan called Ava’s name affectionately, reaching for a tissue.
Ava looked at the tissue through the tears in her eyes. She did not speak and just quietly took the tissue. She quickly wiped the tears off her face and continued to eat the buns.
She tried to pretend to be nonchalant, but her tears kept falling.
Raegan’s heart ached as she saw this.
“Ava, do you want…”
“Can you go out first?” Ava finally said, but the words turned Raegan’s heart cold.
However, she would not refuse Ava’s request.
“I’ll just be outside. You can call me if you need anything.” Raegan turned around after saying this.
When she was closing the door, Raegan could not help but steal a few glances at Ava.
After Ava saw Raegan go out, tears poured out from her eyes. Even so, she still did not dare to be too loud. She did not want to disturb the sleeping Daniel even though she knew that it was unlikely for Daniel to wake up now.
At this time, Daniel’s mother came to the hospital to see Daniel. She also brought Naya with her. Although Daniel’s mother suspected that Naya had given her fake jewelry, the appraisal agency had not yet given her the results. She was more willing to talk to Naya.
Before reaching the door of the ward, Naya spotted Raegan. “Mrs. Graham, look. It’s Ava’s mother.”
Daniel’s mother followed her line of sight, and a displeased look appeared on her face. ““What’s so amazing about this woman anyway? She just knows how to make money. So what if she has money? Her husband is gone, while her daughter is ignoring her and doesn’t want to acknowledge her kindness. Hmph, my son is the one inside, so why should an outsider like her order us around?” Daniel’s mother said with an arrogant face as she stepped toward the ward.
Raegan heard the footsteps approaching and looked up. When she saw Daniel’s mother and Naya, she did not do anything and just watched them silently.
Daniel’s mother was quite imposing a second ago, but for some reason, she suddenly lost her confidence when facing Raegan.
She did not talk to Raegan and wanted to push the door open to go into the ward.
“The doctor has just checked your son. He specifically told us not to go in and disturb him. You can visit him later.”
Raegan reminded calmly.
