A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 927

Marcel saw that she was being like this, and still he explained, “That woman is in the same profession as us, a policewoman from City C! That’s all I can say!”

Rae looked at him and replied, “She’s definitely not just treating you so simply as a friend in the same profession!”

Marcel frowned, “Even I couldn’t see it, how could you have saw this?”

“Have you slept with her?” Rae asked directly.

Marcel felt a little awkward. “I was drunk that day, and we happened to go to the hotel, so we slept together. But we didn’t do anything!”

Rae merely smiled sarcastically. “I don’t want to be involved with you now, and neither should you be involved with me, I think it’s better that we don’t see each other for the time being! Don’t find me for anything other than official business!”

Saying this, she did not even give the chance for Marcel to speak, and walked out directly.

Marcel almost swore in the office!

Rae did not know why she was so petty, she could not help but be jealous.

She did not move for the entire afternoon, and Marcel did not find her either.

Until the second morning, Lexie notified her that she had to attend a meeting.

Only then she took her notes and went to the meeting room.

When she went in, she saw Marcel, Easton, Garbassi, and two other policemen under them.

After Rae came in, Marcel greeted her formally, “Rae, you should take part in the investigation for the murder case at YS Club as well!”

Rae was quite shocked this time, why would Marcel allow her to participate again?

At this moment, the people from the forensics team came to report.

Rae sat down, being quite close to Marcel. She was supposed to be Marcel’s secretary, so she was sitting quite close to Marcel at this moment.

“Captain Hopkins, the autopsy report is completely generated!”

“Alright!” Marcel nodded, “Go on about it!”

At this moment, Garbassi reported with a stack of materials, “Before Karina died, she had used quite a lot of psychedelics, which caused her to have hallucinations and drowned! We performed at autopsy on her body, and found that she was also pregnant, and the foetus was about three and a half months old. We then analysed the samples sent over from the investigating team colleagues. We confirmed that the child’s DNA wasn’t of Stefan’s, and had a very low percentage of blood relations with him. According to the DNA samples of Reuben and Heath that were sent over, we did a DNA test and found that the similarities of the child’s DNA and Heath’s DNA was of 99.99 percent. So we are sure that the child in Karina’s abdomen is of Heath’s!”

Once she said this, everyone was stunned.

Rae had not known much about it and could only listen, she had found out from Ophelia that Karina was Stefan’s girlfriend, so why would the child be of the second young master of the James family?

Marcel frowned as he listened and did not interrupt.

Garbassi continued, “According to our investigations on the CCTV footage, the wine that Ophelia had given Karina that night was taken from the waiter. From the footage she hadn’t tampered with it. We didn’t completely rule out the possibility that the psychedelic wasn’t in the wine or that Karina had taken it herself afterwards, or that she had taken other drink or food containing the psychedelic in other places and et cetera!”

Marcel still stayed silent.

But Rae heaved a sigh of relief.

She still did not understand the entire process, so she could only listen silently, trying to understand bit by bit!

Stefan’s lover had a child with his own son!

She suddenly thought of Mathew and Raphael!

She had to say that this world was sometimes quite messed up.

Afterwards, the meeting decided to fully investigate the James family.

Stefan, Reuben, Heath, Fern James…

The two cases were combined into one investigation.

The issue in YS Club, and the James family headed by Stefan James.

After the meeting when almost everyone had left, and as Rae was about to leave, Garbassi stopped Rae. “Please wait a moment, Rae!”

Rae turned, and saw that Marcel and Garbassi were both sitting there.

Marcel still remained silent, his face not having any expression at all.

But Garbassi started instead, “Rae, I heard that you and Ophelia had been quite close lately. We know that she’s Stefan’s lover, so I hope you can keep a secret of the contents of today’s meeting!”

Rae was rather surprised. But since Garbassi was of a higher position compared to herself, so she listened quite respectfully.

She had not been able to make her stand when Garbassi continued, “In the case that someone let the news out early, they would all be removed from their posts!”

This was a warning!

Rae looked at Marcel on instinct, this was his intent! Just that it was coming from Garbassi’s mouth!

After Garbassi finished, Rae’s first reaction was to look towards Marcel. But he stood up coldly, without a bit of any expression, he walked outside.

Rae did not answer and waited until Marcel left.

Garbassi looked at Rae and asked, “Rae, do you understand?”

Then only Rae nodded, answering word by word, “I understand!”

“That’s great, you can go now!” Garbassi was packing up as well, getting ready to leave.

Rae picked up her notebook and walked outside. She saw Marcel who was standing in the corridor, smoking a cigarette. His slender fingers held on the cigarette, while behind the smoke was his dark, unreadable expression.

Rae walked past him and did not speak.

She walked straight, her expression silent as well.

He did not call for her, and did not even look once at her.

The rain in the deep autumn came unexpectedly, falling without any symptom.

When she was getting off work, it was already quite chilly.
