Chapter 273
Tiffany got out of the car 20 minutes later. What greeted her eye was a warehouse that had been abandoned for a long time and burned to ruins by the fire last night.
Jade’s body was found here.
Forensic analysis concluded that Jade had been strangled to death before the killer set the place ablaze, leaving behind nothing but a charred body after the fire was put out.
There were no fingerprints left at the scene. There was no evidence to be found.
The fire had annihilated everything.
Jeremy searched both inside and out but found nothing. “There’s nothing, absolutely nothing. If you’re looking to identify the killer. it’s going to be quite difficult,” he said.
Tiffany stood where she was and gently closed her eyes.
Indeed, there was nothing around.
However, justice must be pursued,
After a while, Tiffany opened her eyes and smiled faintly. “Let’s go.”
She looked confident, but Jeremy was very puzzled. “Where are we going?”
“You’ll find out tonight, Tiffany replied.
It was 11 p.m.
Jeremy was growing weary from waiting, but Tiffany remained leisurely lying on the rooftop of Luna Villa, enjoying the moonlight.
“Don’t be impatient. Wait a little longer, Tiffany said.
She looked at the time and smiled at Jeremy. “You can go and sleep for a while. We’ll set off at 12”
“Okay.”
Jeremy came down from the rooftop and returned to his room to sleep.
Tiffany swayed gently in her rocking chair, munching on snacks while gazing at the moon.
With Halloween only a week away, the moon was becoming fuller each night.
Tiffany squinted her eyes in satisfaction, but suddenly, she was alerted by quiet footsteps behind her.
Without turning her head, she said with a smile, “The carrot cake today is delicious.”
Richard approached slowly, carrying a hint of the cool night air with him.
His strikingly handsome face had an allure that made people’s hearts race at any moment.
When he sat down beside her, Tiffany blinked and teased, “You really seem to be quite skilled at climbing through windows, don’t you?”

When her identity as Miracle Healer was exposed to him, Richard was not surprised at all. Instead, he climbed through windows even more diligently.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Before Tiffany’s identity was exposed, Richard would only visit her at Cedar Ridge Villa. Now, it did not matter whether it was at her home or Luna Villa; nothing could stop Richard.
And no one would notice Richard’s arrival every time.
This left Tiffany in awe, realizing that Richard’s true ability was like
far more terrifying than she had ever imagined.
She was engrossed in her thoughts, but in the next second, her face was gently pinched by Richard.
“Zoning out while I’m right here–who are you thinking of, hm? Richard asked.
“You, Tiffany answered.
She beamed widely and enthusiastically praised Richard. “I’ve been thinking–crossing paths with you must mean my luck is out of this world.”
She was sure that such praise would definitely make Richard overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, Richard looked at her and said, “Wrong”
Where am I wrong? Tiffany wondered.
She blinked her eyes in confusion.
A smile tugged at Richard’s lips, his eyes sparkling with countless glimmers of light. Slowly, with a deep and measured tone, he said, “It’s me who’s incredibly lucky.”
‘Otherwise, dwelling in darkness, how could I have ever come across such brilliance? he thought to himself.
Thus, meeting Tiffany was his stroke of luck.
Richard’s low, magnetic voice washed over Tiffany, filling her ears with a warmth that was equally calming and tingling. Tiffany was slightly stunned. She was a little surprised that Richard would say such a thing.
The corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.
“Pinky promise.”
Tiffany extended her pinky, a rare display of childishness, “Promise me, no matter what happens in the future, you’ll always stand by my side like you did today!”
The young girl beamed, her dark, luminous eyes capturing his figure.
In her gaze, there was room for nothing else but him.
This realization made Richard happy, so he extended his pinky to her too.
Okay.”
The promise was merely a lighthearted joke at the moment.
case,
Liule did anyone expect that, as was often the things would not go as planned
They sat together for a while, playfully bantering, when June walked over with a bag. June was a bit surprised to see Richard but did not ask any questions. She simply said, “I’ve prepared the stuff you wanted, Miss.”
“Leave them here. Tiffimy said.
“Yes, June said.
Following that, June left.
Looking at the bulging bag. Richard asked calmly, “What are you planning to do?”
“It’s a pretty ruthless plan,” Tiffany answered.
Of course, considering the person they were dealing with was Melody, no method seemed too ruthless.
After all, Melody had blood on her hands.
“By the way, is it really okay for you to be going up against the Harper family? Tiffany asked.
She was a little worried.
When Richard chose to act, he nearly took out Ryan!
Ryan was Richard’s brother–in–law, after all. Tiffany was worried that Hank would disapprove of Richard doing this to the Harper family.
“Your family and theirs are relatives after all. Will it affect you if you stand up for me?” Tiffany asked.
“Yes?
Richard nodded with a serious expression.
Tiffany was stunned momentarily before she became anxious. Suddenly, Richard asked, “Aren’t you going to ask me how this will affect me?”
The innocent woman found herself unwittingly caught in the man’s schemes, having no choice but to follow his lead.
“H–how will it affect you?” Tiffany asked.
“I don’t have a proper status,” Richard said.
Richard leaned closer, a low chuckle escaping him as his lips lingered on Tiffany’s collarbone, his voice growing increasingly husky “Once you give me a status, then it won’t affect me at all.”
Tiffany was speechless.
Richard was seeking benefits for himself.
Tiffany was momentarily taken aback. She originally thought Richard was about to say something important due to his serious tone, but it turned out he was just teasing her.
She was about to retort when she felt a slight sting on her neck.
Richard gently bit her, his dark eyes filled with a blazing fire.
It was as if a long–dormant beast was fixated on its inevitable prey, exuding a strong possessiveness–domineering and obsessive.
“Don’t make me wait too long.” Richard said.
With that, he stood up and his tall and slender figure disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
The slight pain in Tiffany’s–neck had yet to fade, and his words about wanting Tiffany to give him a status kept swirling in her mind, lingering endlessly
All that filled Tiffany’s thoughts was Richard’s enchanting, handsome face, which seemed to contain an unyielding restraint as if he wished he could devour her whole.
Tiffany’s face turned red.
However, a peanut came flying and hit her right on the head, disrupting her thoughts!
Tiffany spun around quickly and found Jeremy perched on the glass rooftop. She wondered how long Jeremy had been there. When she locked eyes with him, Jeremy sorted. “You’re lovestruck.”
Tiffany gritted her teeth in anger. She patted Lucifer’s head and pointed at Jeremy. “Co, bring him down!” she ordered.
As soon as Lucifer heard this, it sprang up, exuding an unstoppable aura of power and confidence!
However, when Jeremy glanced at it indifferently, Lucifer immediately whimpered and lay back at Tiffany’s feet, trembling in fear.
[Master, I don’t dare to do it…]
Tiffany stared at it in exasperation.
“How useless!” she thought angrily.
She stood up, picked up the bag at her feet, and threw it at Jeremy. “Let’s go! It’s time to work!”
Jeremy grabbed the bag and glanced at the disguise tools and clothes inside. It did not take long for him to realize what Tiffany was planning to do that night.
The plan was a little exciting.
