NovelEnglish"Jed must have crossed someone," Mr. Hutchinson said confidently. "The fact that you and your bodyguard are fine is enough proof that something is wrong. That's precisely the reason why we didn't blyou for his death." Avery was inspired by their theory and said, "Apart fromand my bodyguard, he had only been in contact with people in the hospital." "He met with Ruby as well," Elliot added.

"I'm not sure. | only know that Ruby had contacted him before." "What for?" Avery asked. "What happened between them?" "She invited Jed to the house, and | found out about it. She called him over then to get him to take you away." Based on Elliot's explanation, Ruby did not seem to have any motive to kill Jed. Even if Ruby had told Jed to take Avery away and Jed had refused to do so, it wasn't enough of a motive for her to kill him.
"There is someone who might know why," Elliot suddenly said. "Avery, do you remember Paul? He is probably the one who poisoned Jed, because Jed'’s girlfriend died of the spoison, and she was murdered by Paul." "How can we get in touch with this Paul? Is he in Ylore?" Mrs. Hutchinson asked frantically. "Can | go to Ylore to ask him about it?" "Don't act rashly, Auntie. Gary Gould might be dead, but Paul is not someone to be underestimated. If you go there looking for him out of the blue, it will be extremely dangerous." "Sigh... Will you be able to contact Paul, then? | don't want revenge. | just want to know who my son crossed, and what he had done to end up like that. | can't rest in peace when | die if | don't know why he died!" Mrs. Hutchinson's eyes grew red.
Avery looked at Elliot.

Elliot knew Paul's personality like the back of his hand. "He won't speak even if you kill him." Avery nodded. "We won't get an answer out of Ruby either. If she was behind it, she wouldn't admit it, but if it's not her, then there's a high chance that it's Gary who did it." Mrs. Hutchinson was instantly overwhelmed by despair at the realization that she might not find out why Jed died.
After lunch, Avery asked, "Auntie, can | go have a look at Jed’s study room?" "Sure, there are a lot of books inside his study, =b#:QLV> | don't know what to do with them." Mrs. Hutchinson led her to the study room and said, "Why don't you help to take a look and see which ones can be donated? He is not coming back anymore, and it's more meaningful for these books to go to people that actually need them." "Sure, | will organize them and donate them to the library in the hospital!" Mrs. Hutchinson went outside after a while as everything in the room reminded her of Jed. Once she left, Elliot walked toward Avery. "How long will this take? If it takes time, we can cagain tomorrow." "Yeah, | definitely won't be able to finish packing today." Avery scanned through the bookshelf before stopping to stare at a certain rack. She tip-toed and took the documents down.
Elliot was confused. "Why are you taking that?" "It's labeled 'surgery cases’, so these must be records of the surgeries he had performed so far. | want to see if he had registered general anesthesia twice on the spatient before."
