What the heck?
Samuel gaped. Didn’t Mommy get the official divorce certificate yet?
He wondered how they got divorced back then.
“How could you adults do such imprecise things?” Samuel was quite annoyed. If they still have the marriage certificates, they were still a legal couple. How could he find a better man for his Mommy?
“Samuel, where is Mommy?” Simona tugged the hemline of Samuel’s shirt, feeling quite sleepy. “I’m too sleepy. I want Mommy to hold me and sleep.”
“I’ll send you guys home first.” Cormac restarted the engine, driving back home.
Soon they had come back to the villa. On the way, Simona had already fallen asleep in Samuel’s arms.
Cormac pushed the door open and got off the car. Opening the rear door, he bent down and held
Simona in his arms. It was not the first time he was holding Simona, but he felt quite different than before.
His heart couldn’t help trembling, and his fingers were also shaking. She was his daughter, his blood was in her body.
She was born by Loredana for him.
Her little body was so soft. His heart had become extremely softened.
Samuel didn’t want Cormac to hold his sister. However, he couldn’t be able to hold Simona up. Hence, he could only let Cormac hold her.
He followed Cormac tightly, afraid that he would steal his younger sister.
“Please send her to my room,” said Samuel.
Cormac turned around and looked down at him. The short little boy was looking up at him right now, afraid that he would steal his younger sister.
Since he would go out again to look for Loredana, he didn’t plan to put Simona upstairs, because it was inconvenient to take care of her.
He walked into Samuel’s room, put Simona in his bed, and tucked her in the quilt.
Simona’s face looked ruby probably because she fell asleep in the car, where the air was enough fresh enough. Her eyelashes were curly and thick, just like butterflies kissing on her eyes.
She pouted, sleeping soundly.
Cormac stroke her cheek, her skin tender and smooth. He was about to bent over to kiss her forehead, but Samuel pushed him away. “She’s my sister.”
As if he was declaring the ownership, he told Cormac that Simon belonged to him. Cormac couldn’t kiss her.
“She’s also my daughter.”
“You never raised her.”
Cormac failed again in front of Samuel.
Thinking that Loredana was still missing, he said to the little boy, “Take good care of your sister.”
“I will.”
Cormac wanted to rub his head, but he didn’t reach out. After taking a glance at them both, he turned around and walked out of the room.
Since nobody had dinner, Coral recooked some food. Seeing Cormac coming out, she said, “Mr.
Mendelsohn, please eat something.”
“They are in the room. Please take good care of them,” Cormac said. He was not in the mood to eat.
“All right,” Coral agreed, “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of them.”
Cormac turned around and looked at the tightly locked door. Then he strode out of the villa.
As he walked, he called Abbott. Soon the call was connected.
“Send me a few skillful and trustworthy bodyguards to the villa.”
Loredana was suddenly missing. He didn’t think it was quite simple. Now the two kids were staying in the villa. Without enough bodyguards to guarantee security here, he wouldn’t rest assured.
“Sure. When?”
“Tonight.”
That soon! Abbott curled his lips. It was such short notice.
“What? Can’t you do it?” Cormac’s voice became cold.
“Well… I’ll send my men over in an hour.” Abbott braced himself up.
Cormac hung up the phone and sat in his car. He would head to the detention house of City B.
…
The night was colorful under the colorful neon lights, and the scenery quickly passes through the car window, leaving no trace.
Soon, Cormac’s car was parked in front of the detention house.
Boyce knew he was coming over, so he arranged for someone to wait for Cormac at the gate. As soon as Cormac got off, someone came over to him. “Boyce is in the mortuary.”
Cormac nodded, hinting at the man to show him the way.
The mortuary was always located in a remote place. After turning a few corners and going through several corridors, they finally arrived in front of a door. When the door was pushed open, the gloomy and cold smell was oncoming. To prevent the body from decay and smell, the morgue was equipped with a 24-hour refrigeration machine.
As soon as they entered the mortuary, they could feel the sudden temperature drop.
Cormac was expressionless. His emotion didn’t change at all because of this place.
When he came in, the forensic doctor had just covered Beulah’s dead body with a white cloth. There is a scalpel on the table next to him – obviously, he had just finished the autopsy.
Boyce came over with the autopsy report. “It’s certain that she committed a suicide, which was planned ahead.”
Looking at the report, he explained in detail, “She had taken a kind of medicine. After the incident happened in LEO Corporation, when she was locked in the detention house, she took another kind of medicine. The two medicines had inter-restriction, which causes death. Obviously, she knew it very well, so she took both medicines one after another.”
“Is that all?” Cormac was not satisfied with this answer obviously. It was not enough for him.
“Beulah Shawn had met someone before going out of the jail.”
Cormac had the answer in his heart. “Who was it?” he still asked.
“Maria Herbert. According to the surveillance video I found, it showed that Maria Herbert has met her two days ago. She also bribed someone and set Beulah free.” When he was speaking, Boyce was looking at Cormac carefully. After all, he knew Cormac’s relationship with Maria before. “I have the surveillance video copy. Do you want to take a look? Although she was wearing a mask, we analyzed technically. It was her exactly.”
