Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 210 Always Coincidence?

Julian glared at Abigail with sharp and cold eyes, asking. “You handed the tea to grandpa. But why were your

fingerprints not on the teacup? Why?”

Before Abigail could speak, Julian said, “Because you were wearing gloves.”

This was what Julian saw by zooming in on the video.

If Abigail did not wear gloves, Julian may not suspect her.

However, Julian found that Abigail wore gloves. She was clumsy to hide the truth.

“Why did you wear gloves?” Julian asked coldly.

“I didn’t!” Abigail shouted.

“You didn’t?” Then Julian reached out and grabbed the laptop. He spun the laptop 180 degrees, and represented

the image in front of Abigail.

Julian pressed a button and played the video. It was a part of the surveillance footage demonstrating Abigail

handing the tea to Samuel.

Abigail immediately came up with a lie and explained, “Oh, I forgot about that. The waitress made me wear gloves.

I went to the waitress and asked her to give me eight cups of tea. I told her those were for my family. Then the

waitress asked me to wear gloves. She said I would hold the tray tightly if I wore gloves. “Julian pressed a button

and played the video. It was a part of the surveillance footage demonstrating Abigail handing the tea to Samuel.

Abigail started to panick.

Abigail had asked hackers to delete all the videos at the venue.

Abigail thought, “As long as there is no video, I will say that everyone took the tea themselves. Who would ask

people to select a cup of tea if the tea was poisonous?

“I will get myself free from the suspicion since there were no my fingerprints on the teacup.

“I received messages from the hackers. They said that he had successfully hacked the surveillance system.

“Unexpectedly, Julian got the footage before the hackers.

“What should I do now? I guess I have to observe the situation and only take one step at a time.”

“Who asked you to do this?” Julian asked.

“What?” Abigail played dumb.

Julian questioned, “Who asked you to kill grandpa?”

Abigail looked innocent and a little angry, shouting, “I already told you. I didn’t try to kill Samuel. All I did was serve

tea for my family.”

Abigail lowered her head and bit her lips. She looked embarrassed. Then she gritted her teeth and said, “Yes, I did

have two boyfriends, but it was the past. Mr. Parks, didn’t you have other women before you got married? Why did

you release the footage? You are so dark. Are you trying to put me at a dead end?

“I don’t have the right to improve others’ impressions of me? Yes, I had my purpose when serving the tea. I wanted

to please Samuel.

“Why can Annalise please Samuel, but I can’t?

“Now that Samuel is poisoned, you’re interrogating me like I’m a suspect.

“Okay, I was unlucky. Samuel fell after drinking the tea I handed him. But how did I know where the poison came

from?

“I cooperate with the investigation because I hope that you can find out the truth and the real murderer as soon as

possible. I didn’t come here to ask you to convict me casually.

“First of all, I didn’t make the tea. Second, the waitress touched the tea. By the way, could it be that Samuel was

poisoned from the beginning? Could it be a coincidence of the time for the poison to take effect after he drank the

tea? Otherwise, what kind of poison could cause a person to twitch immediately after drinking it?”

Julian said coldly, “Arsenic and barium were detected in the teacup. Abigail Barton, as a doctor, you’re not

unfamiliar with these two poisons, right?”

Abigail replied, “Maybe Samuel was poisoned beforehand. Then he drank the tea. The poison between his lips and

teeth happened to leave on the teacup.”

One of the members of the testing team couldn’t stand it anymore. He came over and said, “We detected poison in

the tea, not at the edge of the cup.”

Abigail continued, “Maybe you shook the cups when you brought them away.”

The member explained, “If Samuel was poisoned beforehand and only his lips and teeth touched the edge of the

cup, we couldn’t find so much dissolved poison in the tea.”

Abigail aggressively said, “Then you should work on finding the polsoner, not questioning me here. Mr. Parks, can I

leave now?”

Julian looked at Abigail coldly and said, “What do you think?”

Julian thought, “In the past, Abigail wanted to be closer to me and kept calling me Julian.

“Knowing I didn’t like that, she followed Alexander and continued to call me Julian.

“I did not allow her to call me like that, but she still shamelessly called me Julian.

“Now she calls me Mr. Parks in a very cold voice.

“Why?”

“Because she is nervous!

“Abigail pretends to be calm. However, deep down, she is in a panic.

“Therefore, Abigail naturally becomes abnormal and forgets some of her old habits.

I’m more certain that Abigail is the murderer. All I need now is evidence.

“Calm down. And keep asking her questions!”

Abigail said, “Well, I think I’m good to go now.” Then she was about to walk outside.

“Stop!” Julian shouted coldly.

Such a cold and authoritative voice made Abigail more nervous. She tried her best to appear calm and asked

impatiently. “How long will it take for me to leave here? Don’t tell me I have to wait until you find the murderer.

Alright, alright. Hurry up, and do your job. I hope you can find it before I go to bed tonight.”

After she finished speaking, Abigail sat down on the sofa.

Julian’s phone rang, and Julian picked it up.

A subordinate reported, “Sir, I found it. More than a month ago, Abigail and Alexander returned to Horington to look

for Master Quigley. Abigail invited some of her doctor friends for a meal. She asked a friend for some medicine,

including barium. In addition, Abigail’s mother asked a friend to buy some arsenic a month ago.”

Abigail could not hear what the person on the other end of the phone said. However, when she saw Julian’s serious

expression, Abigail became even more nervous.

Julian glared at Abigail and said coldly, “Goldie, play the conversation!”

Goldie was an artificial intelligence developed by Julian’s team. Goldie would automatically record all calls on Julian’s

phone.

Goldie would even record messages or videos of Julian’s daily life.

Julian would only turn off Goldie when he had to deal with private things.

Then Goldie immediately played the conversation.

Abigail panicked and explained, “Yes, I did ask a friend for some barium, but I used it to make facial masks.”

Julian asked, “Use poison for masks?” His voice was cold.

Abigail explained anxiously, “Believe it or not, I did use it for masks. Barium sounds like poison, but it can be used

for facial masks. Barium is good for people, especially those who are prone to acne. After dilution, barium can be

used in small amounts. It can prevent mites and acne and remove blackheads.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, it is.”

“Then why did your mother buy arsenic? Was it a coincidence too?” Julian questioned.

“I don’t know anything about my mother buying arsenic. I’m calling my mother now. I’ll put it on speaker.” Then

Abigail immediately called her mother, Bethany Langdon.

Bethany picked up the phone. Abigail did not have the time for small talk. She asked directly, “Mom, did you buy

arsenic? Why did you buy it?”

Bethany said over the phone, “Well, I wanted to mix some arsenic in the rat poison. Our house is high-end, so I was

shocked to see rats. It was infuriating, right?” Bethany nagged over the phone.

“Alright, mom, I gotta go. I will call you back when I have time.” Abigail hung up and looked at Julian innocently,

saying, “Did you hear that? All of these are merely coincidences!”
