After a moment of silence, Sylvic‘s chuckle could be licaril. “You only have suspicions. If you had the ev
idence, you wouldn‘t have your classmate look for the test result at the DNA–testing center.”
“I‘m just curious. I wanted to find out how you‘ve managed to get someone to swap the real report for a
fake one at the DNA–testing center without having any power.”
Perhaps Sylvie had been
sure that the other woman would be dead soon, for she let down her guard and said, “You‘re right that I
‘m powerless, but some people just love making deals with me.”
Then, the next sound that came was the sound of a knife slicing through skin and the agonized groans
of a woman.
Cooper‘s hand, which he rested on the table, clenched into a fist. The veins on the back of his hand
popped. If not for him holding himself back to the best of his ability, he would have lunged toward Sylvie
and broken her neck.
A few minutes later, Sylvie‘s voice sounded out again. “I would‘ve submitted to fate if Jack hadn‘t made
the deal with me back then. But he has presented me with a great life. How could I possibly say no to t
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthat? I know that he wants to use me to deal with Armand, but I‘m willing to play the part to get what I w
ant. Don‘t blame me for this but blame Jack instead.”
The recording was not long; it soon came to an end. However, it had been
played on speakers, so everyone in the area could hear it.
By then, Sylvie looked as if she had seen a ghost,
Back then, Jane had come alone, so Sylvie answered Jane‘s questions as she was sure that Jane woul
d bring her secrets to the grave.
Yet, she never thought that Jane would have uploaded the recording in real–time.
Even Herbert–a man who had always been calm and collected–
could not help but stay transfixed for a long time. In fact, he even felt a chill run down his spine at Sylvi
e‘s lack of mercy.
Then, he turned around to look at Sylvie.
The elderly man said nothing, but Sylvie‘s heart was thumping loudly against her ribcage nevertheless.
She forced herself to stay collected as she argued, “While it‘s true this is my voice, I‘ve never said thes
e things before. Someone must have recorded my voice and clipped it all together to make this! Genevi
eve, I know that you‘ve always disliked me, but you can‘t accuse me
Sylvie then raised her hand and swore, “I‘ll suffer a terrible death if I really did this
if I killed
Jane
Herbert‘s lips parted, seemingly ready to say something about Sylvie‘s oath.
Right then, one of the housekeepers led a man in casual clothes into the front yard.
The man then greeted Genevieve and Cooper
“I‘m sure everyone knows who this man is. He‘s a lainous officer in Baykeep‘s police force. Reece Ol
sen.” Genevieve introduced as she pointed at the man. “He‘ll be able to tell us whether or not the recor
ding is tampered with.”
Sylvie was already digging her nails into her palms by then, but she dared not reveal any of her thought
s on her face.
The Zeigle: family was close to Baykeep‘s police force. Furthermore, the police chief was good friends
with l‘hincus. Namurally. Phincus know who Reece was.
Hence, he nodded and let Reece check the audio file.
Recce then took out a cable to connect Genevieve‘s phone to the computer. After
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏma while of analyzing it on the computer, he said to Herbert and the other Zeiglers, “This audio file is the
original. There are no traces of any edits to it.”
At that. Genevieve turned to Sylvie and asked, “Are you ready to concede, Sylvie?”
Then, as she put her arms on the armrest of the wheelchair with a smile, she continued. “Forlisle Medic
al has just donated several pieces of advanced medical equipment to General Hospital of Baykeep. Th
ey‘ll be able to come up with the result of the DNA test in five hours. Why don‘t we take a trip to the hos
pital now?”
Genevieve had arranged everything in such a meticulous way that Sylvie could not even find a single lo
ophole to exploit.
Just then, a loud crack of thunder came from the sky and made Sylvie shudder in fright.
The gears in her head began going full steam ahead when she saw the dark and furious look on the eld
erly man‘s face. In the next second, she went on her knees before Herbert.
“You b*stard” Herbert snapped, his chest heaving. “How can you toy with me like this?”
“I‘m sorry! I didn‘t mean to trick you!” Tears rolled down Sylvie‘s cheeks as she bawled. “I’m just too tire
d of being poor and want to live a good life, but I‘m also doing this for my friend!”
My friend is Ms.Juliana‘s daughter, and her name is Stella.
Herbert narrowed his eyes. “What did you just say?”
