Jefferson tightened his grip around Adrienne's hand. It was obvious he was trying to comfort her despite his unpleasant words that came out of his mouth next. "Look at your body. You're as thin as a stick. If you keep up with this investigation, you might pass out from exhaustion before you even find the murderer."

Adrienne was not in the mood to joke. She hated that she was powerless and she hated that she was threatened, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Hodge always told her that she was just a little girl and that it was okay if she never found out the truth behind her parents' murder. If her parents were looking down on her from heaven, they would definitely not blame her.

Yes, in the past, she also felt like she was too young and she didn't know how to be considerate of others. She had never thought about sharing some of the burdens her parents shouldered.

In the past, she didn't care about anything and was protected too well by everyone, just l

    Quill personally led his men to investigate the scene but they could not find any clues. He was feeling anxious again. He had been swamped with work for the past two days, then such a big case popped up suddenly. If it went on like this, he would not be able to continue holding his position as sergeant of the Paramount Criminal Police Team. He was so angry that he growled, "D*mn it!" When one of the team members heard him curse, he tilted his head and asked, "Boss, does this case remind you of anything?" "What are you talking about? Hurry up and find some clues." As the head of the team, Quill had the opportunity to come into contact with cases that other teams had handled before. Of course, he was familiar with the case in front of them. Two years ago, there was a huge case at a farm in the western suburb. But, there were only a handful of people who knew its details; one of them was him.  It was also a dismembered corpse case! The flesh from

    Jefferson put the car key into Quill's hand and ordered, "Tell your men to drive my car back. I'll just squeeze into any one of your cars." Although Jefferson mentioned 'any' car, he already had a specific target in mind. He walked to the car that Adrienne was in, then squeezed himself in between Adrienne and Zelson. Even though Zelson and Adrienne were working at this moment, Jefferson was still very uncomfortable to see the two of them sitting together. Sitting between them, he felt more relieved as he could protect Adrienne. Quill went to the door and asked, "Mr. Hefner, won't this car be too crowded?" "That's not really important right now," answered Jefferson rudely. Jefferson had just praised Quill's cleverness, but Quill was messing things up again at this instant. However, Jefferson took back his words when he saw Zelson opening the door and getting out of the car. Quill was indeed smart after all. Quill smiled slyly and added, "Mr. Hefner, I

    "Fortunately, the grandparents were taking care of the child. If it had been a weekend, the murderer might not have let the child go, right?" After listening to Adrienne's report, everyone was silent except for one person's sudden exclamation. Everyone immediately cast their eyes on the person who spoke and then involuntarily turned their eyes to Adrienne, making her feel particularly uncomfortable.  She didn't need other people's sympathy. Adrienne avoided the eyes of everyone and informed them, "I am done with my report. Sergeant Scott, is there anything you're still unclear on?" "No. You've given all the results you can. Now it's up to us." Quill clapped his hands. "Everyone, this case has caused heated discussions among the public, causing small-scale panic. The superiors are watching us closely and they have set us a one-week deadline. Let's split up and look for clues."  Zelson was the first to stand up. "I will run more tests as well. Hopefully, mor

  • My Husband, Warm The Bed!   Chapter 1805 Jeff Is Here

    When Adrienne changed her clothes and came out, Jefferson and Quill were still talking. To be more specific, Jefferson was talking while Quill was listening. Before Adrienne knew about Jefferson's work, she had always thought that he was a playboy who only knew how to eat, drink, play and bully her all day long. After learning about his work, she tried to understand him more. Slowly, she realized that he wasn't what she thought at all. In fact, he had a lot of great qualities about him. Even among a group of excellent people, as long as he was there, the eyes of others would involuntarily fall on him. It was like he emanated an aura that attracted everyone's attention. In fact, Jeff had always been an amazing man but he often used various means to bully her, so she could only ever see his detestable side. She had ignored how admirable he really was. Adrienne was not paying attention to Jefferson's conversation. When she approached, she heard Quill reply, "

    "I'm here." As soon as Adrienne started having a nightmare, Jefferson held her in his arms and comforted her over and over again, "Don't be afraid, it's just a nightmare." Jefferson knew that Adrienne liked to act tough during the day, but she was actually terrified on the inside. This case was making her relive the scene of her parents' murder.  How could she not be afraid? Besides being by her side, he could not do anything else to help her. He wished he was stronger, so strong that he could shield her from everything and keep her under his protection. "Was it really just a dream?" Adrienne wondered. Why was the dream so real? It was so real that she could smell the chilling scent of fresh blood as if the murderer had just committed a crime before her.  "Little Specky, I know the case yesterday was also about dismembered bodies, but you have to know that they're not your parents. The murderer may not be the same person." Jefferson held her tighter and ru

    "Ring, ring, ring—" In the middle of the night, the phone suddenly rang. Jefferson grabbed the phone and silenced it. After confirming that Adrienne hadn't been woken up, he got out of bed and went to the balcony to answer the phone. "What's the matter?" "Captain Hefner, I've received word that tonight at 2 a.m. there will be a deal carried out at Mangrove Bay." A familiar middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone. This man was a gangster and often played double agent for both sides of the law. He didn't have any big forces behind him, but he had a wide network of friends and was very well-informed. He was typically known on the streets as 'Aero'. After Jefferson became the leader of the narcotics team, he reached out to Aero to cooperate with him. However, Aero was a man who liked to play both sides. He still wanted to live a couple of years more. Naturally, he was unwilling to be tied down to the police.  But of course, Jefferson had his own

    "That sounds pretty cheesy. I wonder how it tastes." Jefferson smiled and gave in. "Since it's your signature drink and I'm here, why not give it a try? Give me two cups of Killing Magre." The waiter quickly answered, "Sir, I'm sorry! One person is only allowed to order one a day. You can also choose other drinks to try. Although they're not as delicious as Killing Magre, they have their own uniqueness as well." Jefferson tapped on the table with his fingers and asked, "What if I insist on drinking two?" "Sir, it's our restaurant's rule that only one Killing Magre is allowed per customer each day. Please don't make things difficult for me." "Make things difficult for you? What do you mean?" Jefferson raised his eyebrows slightly and mocked with a faint smile, "I want two glasses of the drink but you insist on only selling one to me. Do you think you're the one who's making things difficult for me, or am I the one who is making things difficult for you?" "S

    Jefferson couldn't help but take a third sip. On his third sip, it was no longer strong or aromatic. It suddenly made him feel a little light-headed. He felt like the bar was shaking along with everyone in it. What kind of alcohol could let a person have so many different experiences within such a short period of time? Jefferson had no idea. However, he knew of one substance that, once taken, could make people feel immortal. It could also make people fall into an infinitive hell — drugs! Drugs! Most legitimate bars hated this kind of thing. For a business to lace their own drinks to get their customers addicted and earn money was horrible. Such a person, even if he was not a drug dealer, should be arrested and locked up for decades. "How do you feel now?" The woman put down the glass and took out a cigarette from her bag. She lit it, took a puff, and slowly spat out a ring of smoke toward Jefferson. "Do you want one?" "Feel?" Jeffer

    ...... Eight months later. Adrienne had given birth to a daughter, gathering the entire Yard family in Chatterton Town. Everyone was in high spirits but Jefferson had a sour expression on, as if that was the worst day of his life. Sierra found a moment and went over to Jefferson. "Hey, Jeff. Adrienne just gave birth but why do you have such a long face on? Did you want a son instead or something?" Jefferson responded rudely, "It doesn't matter to me whether it's a boy or a girl. That little girl is our daughter, and I'll love her no matter what." Sierra continued, "Why do you look so upset then?" "Must I have a reason for that?" Well, he was angry at himself. Adrienne had almost lost her life in the labor room earlier, but he hadn't been able to offer any help. Throughout Adrienne's pregnancy, Jefferson had done an enormous amount of research and found out that a C-section birth was relatively safer. Hence, he'd insisted that Adrienne und

    ...... Johan was still clamming up. Maxtor was so anxious that he couldn't stand still. "Johan, what happened between you and Sierra? Can't you at least explain the situation to me?" After a long silence, Johan looked up and out of the window. "There have been so many fights and misunderstandings between us in the past years and it seems that the past was a time that we can never go back to." Upon hearing this, Maxtor seemed to have put his finger on the crux of the problem. "Did Miranda make Sierra misunderstand you?" Maxtor said earnestly, "Johan, I've told you before that woman has a twisted psyche and you need to stay away from her. You pitied her for being an orphan, but look at what she has been up to." "It has nothing to do with Miranda. It's me. If I..." If he had explained everything to Sierra back then, she wouldn't have felt that insecure about their relationship. He knew everything, but he still got mad at her. Maxtor continued, "He

    ...... On the first day of school, Miranda was once again met with an unpredicted truth. She found out that Sierra was the top scorer in the entrance exam. She was the overachiever that every university was dying to recruit. Not only did Sierra come from a good family, but she was smart and beautiful to boot.  Sierra possessed everything she could have in life. Miranda couldn't figure out why she had to take Johan away from her when she already had so much. What made Miranda even more disappointed was not her inferiority but Johan. On the first day of school, she was over the moon to see that Johan was at the gate to receive her. However, when Johan took her luggage from her and she was wallowing in her excitement to see him, He said to her, "Miranda, that is the girl I like, Sierra. She will be your sister-in-law in the future. You should get on well with her." She didn't want to be nice to her. Instead, she hated her. Mirand

    ...... Johan's words frightened Miranda so much that her face turned pale. "Johan, Mrs. Silas adopted me. I would have died a long time ago if it weren't for her. How could I have nothing to do with the Silas family?" Johan's face was somber, and his voice chilled Miranda to her bones. "You know that my mother was the one who took you in, but look at what you've been up to all these years?" "Johan, what-what did I do?" Miranda said, trembling with fear. Miranda was an expert at feigning a pitiful appearance and reaping sympathy from others. She even managed to tear up and gazed heart-wrenchingly at Johan at that very moment. However, Johan did not buy into her ploy at all. Not only did his eyes demonstrate her no pity, there was also a trace of disdain that Miranda had never seen before. He loathed her. Upon realizing that, Miranda's heart was broken. Johan had been her dream for those past years. She had worked so hard to do so many things in

    ...... Sierra wasn't able to refute because what Miranda said was the truth. It was indeed true that many could never compare with her background. However, although she was born privileged, that didn't spare her from putting in effort for her own future. Prestigious universities wanted her because she was the top scorer in the entrance exam but not because of her family background and connections. All of a sudden, Miranda smirked sinisterly. "I know you like Johan, and you want to be with him. Sierra, I like him too, and I want to be with him. You have everything so why do you still want to take my man away from me?" "Excuse me? Who took your man?" Displeased, Sierra said, "Miranda, you were the one who told me that you two were siblings, and that there was nothing going on between you guys. And mind you, you were also the one who encouraged me to go after him." Miranda shouted in a low voice, "Sierra, if I hadn't told you that, would you have remained fri

    ...... Averting her gaze, Sierra turned around with difficulty. However, just as she had taken a step forward, Miranda's voice sounded from behind. "Sierra, I didn't expect you to come to the airport to pick me up. Imagine my delight to be able to see you on the first day of my return." "You've misunderstood, Miss Attwood. I'm not here to pick you up." Sierra did not conceal her hatred for Miranda as she could not even be bothered to dole out the niceties at her. Miranda chuckled. "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still so adorable." It seemed that Miranda couldn't sense the despise Sierra had for her. She approached Sierra with a smile and wanted to give her a hug. Sierra stared at Miranda's outstretched arms and quickly dodged her. A single glance at Miranda and her eyes would be sullied. Sierra thought that she would even throw up should her body come into contact with Miranda's. Miranda was never good at reading between the

    ...... Stopping her car, Sierra quickly got off to check the situation. No sooner had her feet been on the ground that four men got off from the car in front of her and surrounded her. One of them pointed at her and barked, "Don't you f*cking know how to drive? If you don't, then don't drive. Say it, how much are you going to pay for the damage!" Sierra was driving in accordance to normalcy, but the other party had, so suddenly, cut into her lane without a signal. As hard as she had stepped on her brake, she still collided with the car. They were supposed to be the ones held accountable for the collision. However, they got out of the car and shouted at her, extorting compensation. Sierra suspected that these men had done so deliberately to scam her. She took out her mobile phone and was ready to call the police. However, before she could even unlock her phone, one of the men had already wrenched the phone away from her. "We have something important t

    ...... In the middle of cleaning the table, Rosie said, "He doesn't only come here to have meals, but he would also get one to go every time. No jalapenos on the one to go. He says that you can't take spices because your stomach doesn't handle it well." Sierra did have a stomach problem, but it wasn't till the point that she couldn't take spicy food at all. Moreover, Johan had never brought any tacos back for her. Sierra figured that he was probably getting it for someone else so she asked, "What did he say to you when he asked you to pack it?" Rosie smiled and said, "He said that he was going to bring it for his girlfriend. He's obviously talking about you, isn't he?" "Oh, his girlfriend." Smiling, Sierra did not put forth any more questions as she knew that Johan had never regarded her as his girlfriend. For him, she was nothing more like a leech that he couldn't shake off. Rosie looked at Sierra and said earnestly, "I know you two fought tod

    ...... "My ability to act coy?" Sierra said inwardly. She had no idea from where did his temper sneak in again. However, she knew that somehow everything she had done seemed to piss him off. If he didn't like her, then why did he come looking for her? Did he have nothing else better to do? She smiled and said, "Mr. Silas, since you don't like being around me, then let's not meet anymore in the future, nor have any meals together. I'm afraid your appetite will take a nosedive when you see me." "You shouldn't say that, Sierra." Rosie handed one of the plates to Sierra and said, "Every couple gets into fights, but you must know your boundaries. Some words are too hurtful, and you shouldn't just say everything that comes to your mind." Sierra didn't make a sound. She wasn't a fan of others poking their noses in her affairs. Besides, she was not close to Rosie either so she found her rather meddlesome. Rosie didn't seem to register in her mind that Sierra was d
