A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 898

At this moment, Marcel Hopkins continued, “To hide your mother’s crime, you betrayed your father. Raphael Gill, you are in such a dilemma, so you decided to make fake evidence to frame your father. You’ll be the only successor once your father is sentenced to death or arrested into prison. Raphael Gill! You are such a merciless son!”

Such words were full of malicious judgment!

However, Raphael Gill had no time to think about it.

Rae Baxter also sighed.

Raphael suddenly raised his head and looked at Rae.

Rae ignored Marcel’s order and said to Raphael, “Raphael Gill, what’s fake is always fake, so just tell us the truth! Where is another shirt?”

Marcel glanced at Rae with cold eyes, but Rae didn’t care about it.

Raphael lowered his head, and after a long time, he finally spoke, “It’s in your room!”

Rae was stupefied!

Marcel and the other fellows were all stunned. Everyone stared at Rae.

Rae shouted, “Raphael Gill?”

Raphael raised his head and said hurriedly. “Don’t misunderstand. It’s my mother’s clothes. I found it and hid it in Rae’s room. Our houses are quite close, and her room is right opposite mine. She’s not living there now, so I jumped into her room by the windows, and hid the clothes in her room!”

His explanation eased everyone. They almost thought Rae was the murderer!

Rae was speechless. She gazed at Raphael, and there was disappointment in her eyes.

“Sorry, Rae, I know I’ve let you down! I have no other way. She’s my mother, and all she wants is that I can live well. I can’t send her to the scaffold! I can’t!”

“But you’ve done this!” Rae spoke in a deep voice, “Raphael! You’ve lost your mind!”

What Raphael had done couldn’t help Sammy Champs, but only brought more crimes on her!

Raphael was speechless. He closed his eyes with misery. “I know I’m wrong. Captain Hopkins, All is up to you!”

He had nothing to do now!

After that, Garbassi and Rae went to Rae’s home. It was five in the morning, and there were two strange men with Rae, so the servant was surprised, “Young lady? Why are you coming back now?”

Rae sighed and asked helplessly, “Auntie, you forgot to close the windows of my room, right?”

The servant was stunned, and then nodded, “Well, yes, I forgot it some days ago!”

Rae didn’t speak more but led Garbassi and another fellow to her room.

At this moment, Leonard Baxter and his wife also got up. Leonard frowned as he saw Rae there, but as he found Rae’s limping leg, the blame turned into concern.

“Rae, what’s wrong with your leg?”

Rae turned back and saw them. She had mixed feelings now, but she didn’t want to show anything on her face. There were so many clues indicating that she was abnormal, so she couldn’t let her fellow know more about this.

Therefore, she called Father as Leonard showed his concern.

Leonard was surprised and pleased. During these five years, Rae seldom called him father.

Leonard was moved and almost cried, “Well! Good! What’s wrong with your leg?”

“Nothing important!”

“Nothing important?” Lady Baxter came over with a fast pace, and then bent down to check Rae’s feet. She was shocked as she saw Rae’s swollen feet, “Rae! You can’t work with that. Just ask for a leave and have a rest for some days! Are these your colleagues? Sir, please tell your head that Rae has to take a rest. It’s inhuman to ask a young girl to work with such wounds!”

“Mom!” Rae also called Lady Baxter mom!

Lady Baxter cried out, and couldn’t help hugging Rae, “My daughter! It’s my fault! I didn’t take good care of you!”

This was really out of Rae’s expectation. She even didn’t know how she should react, embarrassed and uncomfortable.

Garbassi was also surprised. Rae was a tough girl in the police station who always worked hard. Why didn’t she stay at home to be a baby young lady? It was so tiring to be a policewoman. This job was dangerous and with not high salary. Most importantly, it might be hard for a police girl to find a boyfriend.

“Aunt, our leader has given Rae a holiday, but we need to finish this case today,” Garbassi explained, which meant that he had no right to give Rae a day off!

Lady Baxter was disappointed, “you guys should be humane! Especially your boss! Look at her feet. What a hard-hearted police guy!”

“Mom, I’m busy now, so please go to sleep!” Rae tried to be gentle.

“Eat the breakfast first. What are you doing here so early in the morning?”

“I’m here to find something!” Rae explained.

“Find what?”

“Don’t ask more. I’m really busy!” After saying this, Rae went upstairs.

Lady Baxter hugged her tightly, but Rae reacted toughly. She got rid of Lady Baxter’s hug. However, Lady Baxter followed her to go upstairs and was crying, “it’s so terrible with your feet. Don’t go to work today. Listen to me, just quit this! You’re our only daughter, so you can’t make yourself in danger!”

Rae didn’t speak.

They got to Rae’s room. Rae opened the door and went in.
