Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Just then, Officer Krump came from the other side, “Andrews, Ling, you’re both here. This is the information I found when I was investigating the village in the city.”

Oliver Andrews took the information.

Officer Krump continued, “According to our investigation, the villagers in the city have a very poor attitude towards James. He often abuses Nidya and is said to hit the child when things get serious. I think Olivia was killed accidentally by this scumbag! Poor Olivia is only fourteen this year; she hasn’t come of age yet…”

In the end, Officer Krump’s voice choked up a bit.

A child of only fourteen hadn’t had the chance to take a good look at the world.

Before long, the coroner’s autopsy report came out.

The coroner came into the office with the report.

“Captain Andrews, Ling. According to our forensic examination, there are multiple abrasions and needle holes on the victim’s skin surface, and in addition, we extracted three embroidery needles from the victim’s skin. Tests show these three needles have been inside the victim’s body for three years. This indicates that the victim was abused prior to her death.”

“What?” Even Ling couldn’t sit still anymore.

She had been handling cases for many years and this was the first time she encountered such a heinous case.

Olivia was only eleven three years ago.

An eleven-year-old child.

Just in the fourth grade.

How could anyone bear to mistreat her?

The coroner then took out a stack of photos, “These are all the injuries on the victim.”

These wounds.

New and old.

Making it hard to breathe.

“Ling, Captain Andrews,” just then, a police officer came in running from outside, “There’s a new discovery.”

“What discovery?”

Ling immediately walked over.

“Ling, this is a children’s phone watch found in Olivia’s home.”

Ling took the bag, looking through the transparent bag she frowned slightly, “I know this brand, it’s imported and costs at least ten thousand dollars.”

“That expensive?” Oliver Andrews frowned slightly as well.

Obviously,

the price of this watch was beyond what the Cooper family could afford.

After all, Olivia’s clothes were washed white.

“Look up the source of this watch.” Through the transparent sealed bag, Ling tried to turn on the phone watch, but there was no response after pressing the power button.

Obviously,

this watch had been deliberately damaged.

Andrews said, “Ling, have the technical department crack this watch.”

Perhaps,

this watch could help them find the real murderer.

On the other side,

Aunt Zhang sat in the interrogation room, “After my husband beat me that night, I fainted. When I woke up, it was already the next morning. I searched for Olivia everywhere but couldn’t find her. In desperation, I had no choice but to call the police for help!”

“It’s all my fault, I should have fought back sooner. I shouldn’t have let him bully us, mother and daughter.”

Aunt Zhang sobbed, gasping for air.

She even wanted to die with Olivia.

Several villagers from the city village were also being questioned by the police.

“Yes, I can testify that Olivia’s mother is a very good person. She would never do anything to hurt Olivia! The murderer must be that heartless James!”

“Olivia and her mother were really too pitiful.”

“Olivia was sensible and well-behaved, we all liked her very much.”

“…”

Now, all the evidence is almost pointing to James.

James, upon hearing about all this, furiously said, “Bullshit! They’re talking bullshit! I admit, I did hit that bitch Nidya! She deserved it! But I never touched my daughter, not even a little finger!”

Actually, James had long known that Nidya was not a good person and she could do anything to achieve her goals.

But what James didn’t expect was that Nidya would try to frame him for murder!

He would have to pay with his life for killing someone!

That bitch!

She’s so damn low!

James wanted to kill Nidya directly in front of her!

Oliver Andrews sat in front of the surveillance, carefully examining James’s expression, then turned his head slightly and looked at Nidya’s side of the monitor.

Obviously,

compared to James, Nidya was more sympathetic.

But determining guilt wasn’t based on who deserved sympathy, who was more pitiful, or who could be found innocent.

Having worked on cases for so many years, Oliver Andrews encountered such a difficult case for the first time and couldn’t help but press his temples.
