Chapter 643
“It must be Sylvie Clasen. I suppose she found out about it. Doesn’t she realize she will only trigger our suspicion that she’s not Old Mr. Zeigler’s granddaughter by doing so?” Genevieve pointed out confidently with a look of sheer somberness. If she has the gut to impersonale Old Mr. Zeigler‘s granddaughter; the Zeigler family surely woullet her of the hook!
Cooper massaged his temples that started to throb and reminded her grimly, “All the bodyguards by Sylvic Clasen’s side are retired special forces. Hence, it’s no easy feat to obtain her hair with follicles or blood.”
“There will always be a way. Since she’s an actress, she’ll have to enter the filming site despite anything.” Genevieve stated matter-of-factly.
Right that instant, Genevieve’s phone rang.
It was a ‘call from Jermaine. Startled, she answered it right away. “Dr. Sitler?”

There was intense agony amid guilt in his tone as he added, “She even demanded me to fake an accident so Jane could meet her end during her surgery. It never occurred to me that she would meet her tragic fate before her surgery.”
Caught off guard, Genevieve asked anxiously, “What’s going on? When did you find out that she’s not Old Mr. Zeigler’s granddaughter?”
Jermaine lowered his voice. “I’d been aware of it long ago. Genevieve, 12”
All of a sudden, there was an ear-splitting sound of an electric current coming from the other end. Genevieve had to take her phone away. It was as though her eardrum was going to burst.
When she looked at her phone again, the call had already ended.
Genevieve tried to call Jermaine back and explained anxiously to Cooper at the same time, “It was a call from Jermaine. He had just told me he had known long ago that Sylvie Clasen is not Old Mr. Zeigler’s granddaughter. There was suddenly an ear-piercing sound, and his phone was hung up the next second.”
Cooper stood up and said solemnly, “I guess his phone must have been tapped, and something might have happened to him. Try to recall if you know those who are closer to him. Give them a call immediately to ask where he is now.”
Genevicve called Jermaine again, but his pionie was ofl’. ller licart sunk, and she left the oflice with Cooper hastily.
Atthe same time, she called Timothy to check with him if Jermaine was in the hospital.
The latter only replied after much hesitation, “If you wish to talk to him now, it’s impossible then…”
By the time Genevieve and Cooper rushed to the hospital to meet Timothy, only then did they realize a tragic fate had befallen Jermaine. He was stabbed to death by a man after stepping out
the restroom.
Later, the man stabbed a nurse who rushed over and was held by the security guard when he wa about to stab her again.
Genevieve and Timothy were thunderstruck by the devastating news.
Shortly after, the police rushed to the scene. They managed to trace the man’s identity and details within a short span.
According to them, the man had been sustaining mental instability since his child drowned a yea ago. Not only that, his wife had divorced him two weeks ago. So he went berserk after discoverin that she seemed to be in a new relationship with a doctor in the hospital. Subsequently, he stabbed the doctor to death.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though the police revealed all the relevant evidence to Genevieve, she did not believe it.
While on the phone with Jermaine earlier, there was a loud buzzing. On the heels of that, the phone was hung up, and he was dead. She could not help feeling that everything was too sudden. It‘s just like what had happened previously!
Genevieve had a hunch Sylvie had manipulated the man to murder Jermaine.
Oblivious to everything, Timothy wondered why there was a drastic change in her countenance. He asked apprehensively, “Has anything happened?”
“Nothing.” Genevieve shook her head.
The Zeigler family was not easy to deal with. Thus, she kept everything mum from Timothy. After all, she was afraid he would settle a score with Sylvie impulsively and place himself in deep water instead.
