Rae didn't stimulate him when she heard Mathew's words, but changed the subject. "Mr Mathew, it doesn't make sense to pursue what kind of person I am! You are going to get involved in a lawsuit right away. You should plan for yourself, Gill Group and Raphael! As for what you are worried about, don't worry, I have someone I like. I won’t be with Raphael, I won’t marry into your Gill family in this life! We are friends. I like Raphael, only because he is my friend! So, you can be relieved!"
Mathew heard this but said. "People usually make empty promises. Man’s mind is unpredictable!"
"Dad, do you think it's interesting for us to quarrel here?" Raphael couldn't listen anymore, he was so anxious. Mathew was still there to be angry with Rae, there was no need at all! "Don't worry about this. Rae doesn't like me. I know it in my heart. Now, I tell you that my mother has also been arrested and will most likely be sentenced. And you are involved in the death of Sheffield, we are all involved. Now, will you tell us what happened at that time, or will you continue to hide it?"
Mathew narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "You swear to me that you won't marry this woman in this lifeor she will be your mistress, I'll tell you!"
Rae felt frustrated, she didn't have that thought at all!
"Mathew, Raphael can’t do that, I will swear by my life, I don't have any thoughts of marrying the Gill family!"
Mathew turned his gaze to Rae, as if to see if she was telling the truth. Rae met his eyes without avoiding it.
Mathew looked at Raphael again, and Raphael spoke very tiredly. "Dad, I just surrendered myself, but I can't tell where the tools of the crime and the wound are!"
"That's natural!" Mathew smiled faintly, "Of course you don't know!"
"What the hell is going on? Can you tell us?" Raphael asked again.
"You have to ask your good mother!" Mathew smiled coldly. "She should know better than me!"
"Dad! It was you that I saw that night, not my mother. I don't care what my mother has done. She is always my mother. Over the years, you have ignored her too long, and she has a new love just like you. I don't mind such things! You are not qualified to mind either!" Raphael said in a deep voice.
Rae sighed. It was sad that the Gill family became like this. Mathew had no intention to say anything!
"Heh!" Mathew sneered suddenly. "Do you think I will be the murderer who killed Joanna?"
Raphael looked at his father for a long time, then nodded. "I do think so. If not, show the evidence! But we all know that the evidence of your absence is difficult to forge! And I personally picked you up. Don’t tell me there is another person in the villa!"
"When you went home that night, was your mother at home?" Mathew asked Raphael suddenly.
Raphael was taken aback and shook his head.
He did not see his mother when he went back for the first time that night. When he went back for the second time, his mother was already at home. If it had something to do with his mother, what was going on?
Mathew looked at him and continued, “That day, your mother dressed up as a servant and appeared in Joanna's villa. Even I was taken aback. You don't know, your mother disagreed me to find another heir! Do you think that she will let Joanna go, who is pregnant?"
"My mother dressed up as a servant?" Raphael was completely taken aback. "How is this possible?"
"You can check the surveillance video to know the truth. The policeman is too ill-advised. You just watched it casually and blamed me not to cooperate with you. There are loopholes in your work, why you blame me!" Mathew's tone was ironic.
Rae was also shocked, only feeling a little weird.
Will it really be what Mathew said?
However, the surveillance video was indeed not clear. The face of the person who was shooting was not very clear. If it was just similar, it was difficult to determine which person it was!
Raphael stroked his face with both hands, and asked sullenly, "Did you see Mom do it with your own eyes?"
"Yeah!" Mathew nodded.
Raphael suddenly had no strength.
Rae questioned, “Mathew, I don't think that the blade was made by a woman. Mrs Gill shouldn't have such great strength!"
Mathew suddenly raised his voice, looked at Rae, and sternly asked, “What do you mean? So you doubt I killed her? Why should I kill Joanna? She had my child. I also wanted to protect her. How could I kill her? What's my motive?"
"I don't know the motive, but I don't rule out that you have no motive!" Rae said.
"Raphael, why did you suddenly surrender?" Mathew asked Raphael suddenly.
Rae also thought this was weird. Raphael modified his testimony in a short period of time, which was really weird.
Raphael said, "Believe it or not, I did think that the murderer was you. As for my mother's presence there, I was surprised. Why didn't she come out?"
"Because I tied her to Joanna's bedroom. The sound you heard was from your mother!"
Raphael said the same when he was interrogated for the first time, he said that he heard the sound. It shouldn't be false, Rae remembered that he used to say that.

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
