Chapter 1203
Her thoughts in a turmoil, Catelyn couldn't answer the question for several minutes. Jox swallowed his saliva and
rushed her. "Mrs. Mason, don’t try to deny it. We’ve confirmed that the phone number is yours!"
Cedrick narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean? Are you suspecting that my wife had Darwin murdered?"
Under Cedrick’s serious gaze, a wave of pressure came over Jox. He initially wanted to meet Cedrick’s eyes bravely,
but became terrified under his stare.
Sweat appeared on Jox’s back...
"Mr. Mason, please don't get us wrong. Jox has just graduated from the police academy, and he is as green as
grass. We just want to learn the situation," Octavio
explained hurriedly in a trembling voice.
Hearing Octavio’s explanation, Jox became annoyed." Officer Hawk, why are you so afraid of him? I'm telling the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttruth. Darwin received Mrs. Mason's money during the day and was murdered at night. Mrs. Mason must be
involved in..."
"Shut up, silly boy!" Octavio poked Jox’s head.
'Mrs. Mason and Mr. Mason are the president's daughter and son-in-law!
'As long as the president give an order, Jox and I can't live in peace...'
"If you don’t have conclusive evidence to verify my wife as the murderer, please leave. You can communicate with
my lawyer later." Cedrick asked them to leave.
Since the two policemen were not well-mannered, Cedrick didn’t plan to treat them politely.
Not daring to offend Cedrick, Octavio stood up awkwardly, nodded at Catelyn to express his apology, and then
planned to take Jox away.
But Jox was fearless and refused to leave.
Jox uttered, "Mrs. Mason, it is a citizen's duty to cooperate with the police! What's more, your father is the
president, and you have no reason to be uncooperative, unless you are guilty. If this incident is reported online,
aren't you afraid that people will criticize the president for abusing his power for personal gain?"
The atmosphere became tenser and tenser. Not only Cedrick, but also Catelyn became angry.
Catelyn felt guilty toward Darwin, who might have been killed for having told her the clues. But Jox insinuated that
she took advantage of the president to kill an innocent man wantonly.
She argued, "First, Darwin is an entertainment reporter, and his interpersonal relationships are complicated.
Instead of investigating people who have been in close contact with him, why do you come to question me, a
person who has just known him?"
"Second, if you found out that he called me before he died, you must be able to ascertain that I didn't answer his
call last night and called him back later. If I engaged someone to murder him, why did I call him back after knowing
he was murdered?"
"Third, what I’ve done has nothing to do with the president! Without the president, Fidelysia would still be in civil
strife. Would you have the opportunity to make an innuendo?"
"You..." Jox blushed with embarrassment, stuck for words.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJox grew red-faced, but when he was about to refute Catelyn's words, Octavio's phone rang.
At the sight of the caller ID, beads of cold sweat appeared on Octavio's forehead.
He answered the phone nervously...
Chief Sears asked Octavio to hand the phone to Jox.
When receiving it, Jox asked righteously, "Chief Sears, I'm asking the suspect to make a statement. What’s the
matter?"
"A statement? Are you qualified to ask the lady to make a statement? The murderer has been identified. He is a
robber and killed Darwin for money. Come back right now..." Then Chief Sears reprimanded, "She is the president's
daughter. If she had meant to murder the reporter, would she have left clues for you to investigate? What have you
learned in the police academy?"
"But..."
"No buts! Give the phone to Mr. Mason," Chief Sears ordered.
Jox turned scarlet and reluctantly passed the phone to Cedrick.
Chief Sears explained with an apologetic smile, "Mr. Mason, we've already solved this case, and it has nothing to do
with Mrs. Mason. All of these are a misunderstanding. I’m sorry for disturbing Mrs. Mason. Please forgive my
subordinates."
