All Chapters of Love in another shadow: Chapter 241 - Chapter 250

CHAPTER 242Christine tried to lift the corners of her lips, she smiled in front of Alicia to turn the previously sad atmosphere back into a relaxed and pleasant one. "At the company's internal meeting, you will meet with the board of directors, commissioners, important staff consisting of financial, managerial, marketing and other staff. The meeting is to announce that you will be the next CEO after the specific requirements given by Madam Michelle have been met. And, in fact, these people already know that I'll be the interim head while you're not in charge. Any decisions I make will always be discussed with you, and with Felix as the company's legal counsel.""Are any of them going to protest?"Felix chuckled. "Even if they have a lot of money, they can't buy the law. You will remain CEO, unless you get sick and write another will for the next CEO."Alicia's eyebrows knitted together. "What if I die?"Christine and Felix were silent. It was a very 'absurd' and terrifying question a

CHAPTER 244Charlotte looked at the two people before her in confusion. She dropped the LV bag on her shoulder and placed it on the table. Smacking her lips, she picked up the phone on the corner of the table and started typing in numbers.But after waiting for a while, Charlotte put the phone back on the table and looked at Nicholas. Shrugging her shoulders, she said, "Sorry, Detective. But it looks like Anna has left the room. She's not picking up the phone." Charlotte picked up her bag again, slinging it over her shoulder. "I have to go home too, it's shift change time. You can talk to the next receptionist. She'll be here in five minutes.""Thank you for your information.""Sure. See you soon, Detective."Charlotte waltzed away in her usual coquettish fashion. And that made Alicia knit her forehead deeply. She watched Charlotte as she crossed her arms over her chest."Looks like you're close?" Alicia quipped.Nicholas laughed at that. He pinched Alicia's cheek and said, "Don't be

Chapter 246"Chief Nicholas!"The voice broke Nicholas and Alicia's focus. Especially when they both found Hendrick waving and walking towards them.There was nothing Nicholas could do when Hendrick finally joined the same table as him. Nicholas had to act casual so that Hendrick wouldn't get suspicious."Hello, Alicia. You're here too. Are you guys on a date?"Alicia and Nicholas exchanged glances. Without saying anything, Alicia could tell right away that she had to keep her mouth shut. She had to keep her secret so Hendrick wouldn't get suspicious.Nicholas answered immediately. "We were hanging out around here, and decided to pay a visit to Fast Coffee." He looked at Alicia, giving her the code to nod her head. Alicia obeyed, she did Nicholas' covert request. "What are you doing in the office, Hendrick?""I'm just finishing up the report for Jason's case, the testimony from Mrs. Winchester yesterday will be included in the written report. That's a big clue."Nicholas nodded in agr

CHAPTER 248The forensic team discovered unsettling details about the victims. The bodies were strategically placed in the water, each positioned to form a cryptic symbol when viewed from above.Nicholas opened his personal notes, then looked at Noel. "You must have guessed that it was Jason's wife and children from the testimony of one of the witnesses at the pawn shop, right?""That's right. Those were the last clothes they wore before leaving the pawn shop, or the day before Jason was found dead," Noel continued.Before long, the forensic team was done with their work and met Nicholas to say goodbye. They would meet at the hospital for further investigation."Other than the last piece of clothing..." Noel picked up the bags of evidence, there was one plastic bag that caught Nicholas' attention. Noel picked up the same plastic bag, then took something out from inside. "There's an identity card in here.""The woman had an ID?" Nicholas looked at Noel in confusion.Noel shrugged. "You

CHAPTER 250"Same pattern, different place. What is Ace doing all this for?"Noel and Nicholas had just returned from the hospital. They had a long discussion with Dr. Harris about the deaths of Maya and her two sons, Ben and Bobi. Ben was a boy who had a history of a rare disease, which was the same disease that Jill's daughter had.Noel swiveled his chair right and left, while Nicholas continued to massage his head in frustration. "You need to relax a little, Nick. This is a good lead. We finally know that Ace is the prime suspect in Jason and Jill's case. Two cases unfolded at once. We just need to catch Ace and make him reveal everything, we just need to add his testimony so he can rot in jail. You should be happy.""But Ace wasn't proven to be involved with the death of Alicia's parents, Noel!"Noel snorted, he looked at Nicholas in disbelief. "You're angry because Ace wasn't proven to have killed Alicia's parents? That's it?""This is a puzzle I can't solve, Noel. It's making my
