Chapter 296
“Why are you going to Royal Bay at this late hour?” June was puzzled.
She thought that Tiffany was going to look for Richard Hamptor to discuss today’s matter. However, when she looked at Tiffany, the young girl’s face was tense and brimming with chilliness.
Hence, she quickly answered. “Yes, Miss Kelley.”
In the car, Tiffany removed the bracelet with rare pink diamond on her wrist that was worth millions. She remembered Richard had bid for this at the auction.
But now…
After removing the pink diamond bracelet, she wiped the blood–stained wristband carefully before putting it on her wrist.
V good.
The workmanship was exquisite, and the quality of the silver was also very
Tiffany stroked the wristband a few times. Following that, she took out a brooch from her pocket.
She had refioved this item from Ged Moody’s body earlier.
Previously, at Sandra Olson’s wedding, she had worn this kind of brooch as a precautionary measure. There was a pinhole
hidden inside which could provide evidence in case someone wanted to frame her.
camera
Later on, when Ged found out about it, he pestered her until she made one for him.
It was shaped like an eagle and there was also a camera inside.
Tiffany did not doubt Zoe’s words at all. What she found questionable was how Ged crossed paths with the assassins when the road he had to take to go home was in the opposite direction of the assassins‘ escape route.
This was too much of a coincidence.
She found it unbelievable.
It was most likely that Ged had been lured to that place.
Tiffany retrieved the laptop and linked the brooch to it. Soon, the surveillance footage was displayed clearly on the laptop screen
The bottom right corner of the video screen showed a timestamp of 10:15 p.m.
Ged had just bought the wristband and was about to drive home, However, at this moment, a small thin figure threw stones. at his car under the cover of darkness. A string of metallic thumps could be heard when the stones hit the car body.
Ged was furious. He thought that it was some prankster and he wanted to confront him but the other party kept throwing non–stop.
In a fit of anger, he decided to hunt down the culprit by car.
Following this, that prankster dashed off. As he ran, he continued throwing stones from time to time.
After chasing for a few minutes, Ged arrived at the road where he would later see Zoe Stevens and Melody Princeton being pushed into the car.
The prankster was long gone and he was getting ready to drive back.
Later, he saw the two girlcin, distress and he went after the allors immediately
Then, just as Zoe said, when Ged turned back to rescue Melody Hummer sped toward him and rammed into everyone present
However, what Zoe did not see at that time was that Ged managed to step aside in time. He was not hit at all.
All of a sudden, someone in the Hummer produced a sharp metal strip from somewhere and stabbed at Ged.
Although Ged was chubby, he was very agile. He immediately dodged, but in that particular camera angle, he was seen falling forward suddenly.
Tiffany replayed this scene several times. In the end, she was very certain that Ged diel not lose his balance.
Someone had pushed him from behind.
It was precisely because someone pushed him that Ged was impaled by that metal strip which he could have avoided. That metal strip pierced his heart and that led to a fatal injury.
Among all the people present, Zoe was the furthest away. There were only two assassins near Ged as well as Melody Princeton, whom he had just rescued.
Who could it be? Who pushed Ged from behind?
Who was driving the Hummer to ram into Ged? And who was the person inside the Hummer who tried to stab Ged with the metal strip?
Tiffany’s head was about to explode from thinking. She reviewed the video multiple times and magnified the critical parts to make screenshots to examine them in greater detail.
However, in that instant, there was too much movement and the pinhole camera did not capture the details clearly.
Tiffany kept taking screenshots and magnifying them. She reviewed the screenshots repeatedly until finally, she could discern something.
The arm that stabbed Ged with the metal strip from inside the Hummer was slender and smooth.
It was a woman’s arm
Who could it be then?
Tiffany was getting a splitting headache. Numerous human figures popped into her mind one after another, but she eliminated them one by one.
There were definitely many people who wanted Tillany dead but how many people held such a deep grudge against Ged?
In the past, it could only be Sandra Olson. But she was dead now…
Tiffany frowned deeply. The car came to a stop at this moment June announced with a concerned expression, “Miss Kelley. we have arrived.”
Tiffany raised her head. At this time of the night, Royal Bay was still brightly lit.
“Wait for me here: As she spoke, she got out of the car.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
When Tiffany tried to enter the compound, she suddenly realized that the security system had been changed. Now, whether by using facial recognition or fingerprint scanning, the system no longer granted her access.
Tiffany could only press the intercom bell
A servant showed up very fast despite it being the middle of the night. She immediately opened the gate for her. “Miss Kelley, please come in.”
“No rush. Please inform your master of my arrival, Tiffany told the servant.
As an unwelcome guest, surely she had to at least get the master permission before entering.
The servant was baffled and did not understand what Tiffany meant. Didn’t she always enter directly in the past? Why was she so formal today?
Perplexed, the servant looked at Tiffany and saw that her eyes were slightly red and swollen. Even though there was a faint smile on her lips, there was no warmth
On closer inspection, she could even detect a layer of frightening frostiness on the exquisite and beautiful face of this young girl standing before her. That demeanor was terrifyingly chilly
The servant did not dare to say anything else and hurriedly ran in to report.
Tiffany stood outside the gate for ten minutes.
When the same servant re–emerged, she seemed somewhat happy. “Miss Kelley, please come in. Master is waiting for you inside.”
“Thank you.” Only then did Tiffany enter the villa estate.
The servant added along the way. “Master said that you don’t need his permission before entering in the future. You can just go in directly.”
Tiffany did not say anything.
This was probably her final visit.
After crossing the front lawn and walking up the porch, she slowly walked into the villa.
The moment Tiffany entered, the trash can that had yet to be emptied caught her eye.
The doll that she had personally brought here was lying in there. It was very dirty…
Very good. Tiffany gave a bitter smile and continued walking in
Inside the brightly lit unique and luxurious villa, the villa master’s tall and handsome figure was still dazzling as always. He had the innate bearing of a big shot, noble yet understated.
Upon seeing her, Richard Hampton’s deep dark eyes glinted with obvious delight. He said in a teasing fashion, “You came so late at night. Did you miss me?”
Tiffany came to a stop five steps away from him.
Then, she said calmly, “You planned everything that happened tonight, didn’t you?”
“What? What do you mean?” Richard frowned and his smile instantly disappeared. His handsome face was abnormally pale under the light. Even his thin and tightly pursed lips were icy, devoid of any rosiness.
A mysterious smile crept across Tiffany’s face.
This guy still had the nerve to ask such a question.
Everything that happened tonight was traceable, wasn’t it?
Tiffany recalled how those assassins had taken action brazenly at the school gate. They caused such a big commotion, but not one showed up to help her. It was as if everyone was dead.
Did Zoe not call for help at that time? She called and called but no one came
What did all of this mean! It only meant that a pair of hands was deliberately manipulating everything from behind the scenes.
