Chapter 145 It Better Not Be You
The moment Yvonne stepped out of the interrogation room, she could feel her father’s gaze, and her
heart beat faster. Jenny’s words must have raised his suspicions.
“You’re not seriously considering her words, are you, dad? She’s picking at our relationship on purpose,”
Yvonne said. No matter what her father believed, she had to say something.
George was silent. He fixed his weary eyes on Yvonne as if deep in thought.
Yvonne continued, “Dad, only the two of us are left. We must team up to expand the Dickmans!”
A moment later, George seemed to be convinced by her words. He said in a low voice, “The culprit had
better not be you. If I learn that this was your doing…I would rather give it away than pass it on to you!”
Then, he turned to leave. Yvonne heaved a sigh of relief.
She watched her father leave and smirked. Steven was already dead. Who could prove that she was the

Steven’s death generated a lot of buzz on the internet. They pressed the police to find the murderer as
soon as possible, which stressed the police. Joe Chapman called Alec numerous times to obtain
evidence that would clear Jenny’s name. Otherwise, the police would most likely have to transfer Jenny
to an asylum.
Alec kept himself busy. He contacted Zack and Gilbert and told them everything he knew so that they
could discover more evidence.
Unfortunately, Yvonne had planned everything out. After Jenny left the hospital and followed those men
to a place with no cameras installed, nothing else could be found. They couldn’t even find out how she
had gotten to the hotel.
Of course, their hopes were all placed on Zack.
The cameras in the hotel were destroyed after the incident. If they could restore the footage, they would
find out what had happened.
“How much longer?” Gilbert looked at Zack, who was furiously typing on his keyboard. His face was full
of
worry.
“Not sure,” Zack said as he typed. “You know that my skills are nowhere near Jenny’s. It would be much
faster if she were the one doing this.”
Zack lamented his shoddy skills. If he had known that a day like this would come, he would have paid
more attention in class.
“Just try to be fast.” Gilbert knew that Zack was anxious, so he said little else.
Alec wasn’t idle, either. He stood at the hospital’s entrance, where Jenny had stood that day.
-He didn’t look for clues at the hotel since the police had already gone through that place multiple times
to no avail. However, the police hadn’t considered the location where Jenny initially disappeared

words.
Regardless, Alec believed in Jenny, so he chose to look for clues there. He tried to retrace her footsteps,
believing there would be signs of it somewhere as long as something had happened.
The hospital led out to a few alleys. There were no cameras beyond this point. No one knew which alley
those people had taken Jenny to. Alec didn’t know, either. Hence, he chose the dumbest method to find
out. He walked through every single one.
Maybe the Heavens were watching and decided to help him. When he walked to the third alley, he
discovered marks left behind from the fight. He could determine at once that this was where Jenny had
been knocked unconscious.
