Chapter 2072 Doubtful
In the Jacobs' old family home, Detective Carter kept receiving calls from the bodyguards, and knew the
movements of Violet's family like the palm of his hand.
"Sure enough, it was a bait and switch. On the surface, two cars set off; one came to us and the other was headed
to the airport. In actual fact, they escaped from the basement in a taxi. However, they were indeed unable to
escape."
Detective Carter summarized his updates and reported to Byron and Rosalie.
The detective was shocked. The bodyguards that Byron arranged for him had excellent professional skills and
strong execution ability. These men were obviously carefully cultivated.
Byron nodded calmly.
He sighed secretly in his heart. Sophie reacted exactly the same way as Xander Lancer back then, she chose to

Indeed, travel transportation such as airplanes and highspeed rails have rigid, fixed schedules and are relatively
easy to be discovered.
Rosalie's mind was not present at all. As long as the husband declared that they could not escape, then they are
trapped for good.
However, the most difficult problem now was still evidence. What if they stopped Violet's family and prevented
them from leaving? It would be meaningless if they could not be convicted.
Where would Mama's heirloom be kept?
She racked her brains to remember, but still found nothing. She looked at her husband and asked, "Would Mama’s
heirloom not be in the Jacobs' old family home?"
Byron shook his head, denying this possibility.
"It's very simple. Mama had been bedridden for the last few years. It was impossible for her to take it out unless she
had gotten someone's help. Moreover, she wanted to give it to you when you grow up, so it would be even more
impossible for her to keep it outside where you couldn't find it. Don't forget, she still has to worry about it being
discovered by Violet and Gordon."
Detective Carter also nodded in agreement with Byron's analysis.
"However, we've already searched all over. Did she hide it in this reinforced concrete? Then the whole house must
be demolished!" Rosalie was a little discouraged. Her eyes darted around the house. She was so anxious that she
felt heated up inside.
"I was thinking, wasn't this house sold before? Mary bought it back. Would the first buyer have found the heirloom?"
Byron continued to analyze.
Rosalie shook her head. "No, even though the family bought it, they never lived here at all. They immigrated not
long after they bought it."
"Is...is there something wrong? Why would someone immigrate when they've bought fixed assets like real estate? rt

"Today is Mae's big day, so don't bother her anymore. Let me ask tomorrow." Rosalie nodded.
As the heirloom could not be found for the time being, Byron persuaded Rosalie to go back and rest for now.
There was still time for everything as long as Violet was not allowed to escape.
Detective Carter also persuaded her. He led some people to continue the search. There was no need to keep
everyone here.
Immediately, Rosalie and Byron returned to the Lawrence Manor.
More than an hour later, Detective Carter sent a text message, informing Byron that the boat that Sophie wanted
to escape was found to be unlicensed and had been detained by the Coast Guard. Sophie's vehicle was returning to
the villa.
Byron could not help but sigh in awe. Detective Carter's methods were really different from his own.
After all, he was a retired policeman. He would still abide by some bottom lines and will not use violence to prevent
them from fleeing. Violet can only be regarded as a suspect before obtaining sufficient evidence.
A moment later, the four private detectives were also captured by the bodyguards. They were politely sent away
from Coast City.
