Chapter 1247Just when Sharon thought she would suffocate to death, Edwin let go of her. Sharon fell to the ground awkwardly, and her expensive and delicate skirt turned upward so that flesh-colored stockings could be seen clearly. she touched her neck and coughed desperately as if she was about to cough out her lungs... Edwin sat back on the sofa gracefully, "Do you still remember what you promised me?" Sharon knelt down at Edwin's feet, shaking subconsciously. "I... I dare not forget a word. You asked me to take good care of Miss Puffy and play her mother in front of outsiders. In return for this, you said you would give me twenty thousand a month and raise my daughter who lived in the countryside. " She was originally a peasant woman in the countryside near Sapphire City, but her husband suddenly died in an accident, and she was pregnant at that time. Edwin saw her when he went to the suburbs to see the investment land. She had just given birth to her daughter, with no
Chapter 1248 "So strange," Catelyn mumbled, but then she closed her eyes obediently. Cedrick picked up Puffy, put her sweet-sleeping little face close to Catelyn's face, and compared them carefully. ‘They are so much alike. Especially Puffy’s eyebrows and mouth are really Catelyn’s miniature version. Cedrick suddenly felt that the little girl in his arms became very heavy. "Can I open my eyes now?" Catelyn heard that Cedrick didn’t do anything, so she subconsciously asked. After waiting a few seconds, Catelyn still didn’t hear any sound. Catelyn slowly opened her eyes. She saw Cedrick holding up Puffy. The warm golden sunshine passed through the glass window and fell on Puffy’s little body, which made her sacred. "Have you noticed that Puffy looks like you?" There was more earnestness and tenderness in Cedrick’s eyes. Catelyn did not understand Cedrick’s words, but she still nodded instinctively, "She is my niece. Shouldn't she be so much like me?" "Sharon is her moth
Chapter 1249Over the past half a month, they had locked down a lot of IPs, but none of them was Joanne’s. It was like she was destined to leave and never come back. When Catelyn knew that there was a clue to help her to find her daughter, she was anxious and didn't want to wait. After telling Kelly to take good care of Puffy, she hurried back to Mason Estate with Cedrick. Miles and Ollie were more worried about Puffy, so they stayed at Atherton Manor. By the time Catelyn and Cedrick arrived at Mason Estate, Eason was already waiting for them with a group of technicians. "Mr. Mason, this is that killer's phone..." Eason handed the decrypted phone to Cedrick, "Although that killer refused to say anything, he was very cautious so that we had a chance. He was afraid that Mr. Denson would kill him, so he saved evidence every time Mr. Denson arranged for him to kill someone else. He has killed a lot of people in just a few years." Cedrick scanned the names on the screen. Many
Chapter 1250 In order to survive, Ezekiel definitely had contacted Mr. Denson for negotiation. He should have found a way to contact Mr. Denson or some people close to Mr. Denson. According to the later results, the negotiation must have failed, so Ezekiel had no choice but to come to Catelyn for help. In this case, Mr. Denson was afraid that Ezekiel would give Catelyn some clues against him, so he arranged for the killer to take Ezekiel's life downtown. Eason immediately did exactly as Catelyn had said. After a while, they found two identical phone numbers in that killer’s and Ezekiel's call records! One of the phone numbers was called shortly after Ezekiel got out of prison. The other one was called twenty minutes before Ezekiel's car accident. Catelyn pointed to the latest call record, "Could it be this?" Cedrick turned Ezekiel's mobile phone, and his eyes gradually became cold. Then he dialed that phone number and asked someone in the technical department to track th
Chapter 1251Did it have something to do with the mayor of Sapphire City?Showing an incredulous expression, Catelyn quickly searched for the mayor of Sapphire City, Waylon Swale, with her phone.Waylon, nearly 60 years old, had held an important position in Sapphire City for almost 30 years. Always conscientious, he delivered remarkable achievements and worked for the well-being of the people in the city, so in their eyes, he was a rare great officer...From this aspect, he couldn’t be Mr. Denham, who was cruel and merciless.But if Mr. Denham was Waylon, it made sense that Mr. Denham was very affluent and powerful, so powerful that he could even try to kill Ezekiel in broad daylight.Even so, Cedrick couldn’t conclude that Mr. Denham was Waylon, as the people around Waylon were also suspicious. Thus, Cedrick immediately arranged for some men to watch the government-owned residence closely.Anyway, the person who did something strange three days later would be the man behind th
Chapter 1252Suddenly, the bedroom door was pushed open by force.Catelyn was taken aback.Then all the lights in the bedroom were turned on, and instantly, the whole bedroom became as bright as day.Cedrick stormed into the room.Sensing the fury, Catelyn looked back and saw Cedrick standing near the door with a wrathful and dark expression. He was glaring at Edwin very coldly.Catelyn felt confused, as Cedrick hadn't got so angry for long, and to her shock, he treated Edwin this way. "Honey?” She greeted him tentatively. With a sinking feeling, she tried to ease the tense atmosphere. "Why are you looking at Edwin this way? Does anything go wrong? Today is his birthday, and Grandma is rarely so happy. Calm down."At the sight of Cedrick's dark face, Edwin guessed the reason for Cedrick’s wrath. He gave a playful smile and said, "Well, it seems that you have known everything.""Edwin, I view you as my brother. But what have you done? You've fooled all of us like monkeys," Ced
Chapter 1253‘I’ll ask them what has happened later,’ Catelyn thought.The moment she left, Cedrick locked the door. He turned his fingers into a ball and punched Edwin who looked playful and casual.Cedrick exerted so much strength that there was a gust of wind.Edwin didn't dodge and endured the punch. A fist mark appeared on his right cheek, and he began gasping in pain.Before Edwin's pain subsided, Cedrick raised his fist again and was about to punch him.Edwin narrowed his eyes and quickly avoided the punch. He took off his dark suit jacket and said, “You want to have a fight, don’t you? Come on!”Cedrick sneered. “You're asking for it.”After a brief silence, they started fighting. Their muscles bulged when they fought. The hot sweat dripped from their foreheads, down their faces and necks, and to their collarbones. In the end, it disappeared after sliding down to their chests.Their white shirts were wet with sweat, clinging to their honey-colored bodies...Under the
Chapter 1254Somehow, Catelyn couldn't bear to scold Edwin when sensing his dispiritedness.Edwin only allowed others to see what he intended for them to see...Few people could read his mind.Catelyn gave a sigh resignedly. Then she took out an ice pack from the refrigerator, wrapped it in a towel and threw it to Edwin while suppressing her anger. "Reduce the swelling with the ice pack. Otherwise, Grandma will feel sad when she sees your face later,” she uttered."Kitty, I'm sorry..." Edwin suddenly apologized seriously.Staring at the injuries on his face, Catelyn found he was more severely harmed than Cedrick. Those injuries looked shocking.As her inexplicable fury dissipated, she urged impatiently, "Well, I don't want to know what has happened. But you'd better mitigate the swelling. Grandma and the others are waiting for you to go downstairs and cut the cake."Edwin didn't move, but twitched his mouth mockingly."Actually, you are the one who should punch me,” Edwin said
