A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 962

“Captain Hopkins let us keep some investigations confidential so I can’t tell you. However, I think the result should be out soon. He might inform everyone about it during the meeting, then the result will come out after it!”

Rae knew Matthew well. Thus, she didn’t continue to ask other questions.

When Rae reached Gustavo’s office, she took out the things that she had collected. The things were Mrs. Baxter’s blood mud, Leonard’s hair and her blood sample.

Gustavo looked at Rae with suspicion when he saw the three things. Rae just spoke before he asked her about it.

“Gustavo, this is the reason for me coming here to find you. I want to know the relationship between these three people. Can you help me to do the genetic comparison of them?”

“When do you want to get the result of it?” Gustavo asked.

“As soon as possible, I really wish to get the result right now!” It seemed that Rae was in a hurry.

Maybe Gustavo had mentioned her anxiety so he spoke to Rae, “Then I am going to the lab now. However, the results may be coming out in a few hours! You know, the equipment also needs time to analyze!”

Rae asked, “Can I go to the lab with you?”

Gustavo was a bit surprised. Rae explained to him, “Gustavo, this really meant a lot to me. I want to know the result within the shortest time and I feel better if I can watch through the process, is it okay? Am I causing trouble to you?”

Gustavo was looking into Rae’s eyes. After keeping silent for a while, he nodded, “Sure, there won’t be any problem to me, we can go to the lab now. Well, we don’t need to take a long time there. I am going to work overtime now to show the result of it to you!”

Rae’s eyes were full of gratitude when she heard him say so.

Gustavo stared at Rae with a complicated expression. Gustavo just heard that Matthew had broken up with Rae on the day out of the blue. He was totally taken aback at the moment he got the news. He was so confused about it. What happened to them? How could they just announced their relationship, and then they just broke up suddenly before their relationship was known by everyone.

He really worried about Rae when looking at her as Rae did not look well. Her face was slightly pale, it looked a bit grey and it had lost its original hydrated color. Not only that, her lips also looked pale.

Gustavo could not stop himself from worrying about Rae when looking at her in such a state. There were a few times he wanted to say something but he held his words back in the end and didn’t ask anything.

He might be too embarrassed and so he could not ask her anything. He concealed his doubts in his heart and then both of them went to the laboratory. Gustavo let Rae sit on the bench and waited at the entrance. She could look into the lab completely by staying in that position. She didn't have to enter the lab and change clothes because she would need to change clothes if she went in there!

Rae also did not know about those precise laboratory instruments so the only thing she could do was to sit on the bench and watch his operation.

Gustavo was wearing a white gown and a face mask. He just looked like a doctor at that moment. Rae kept staring at him and she saw him extracting things and make them into slices. It seemed like it was a very complicated operation.

Around an hour passed, Gustavo was still waiting for the analysis of the laboratory instruments. At that time, he came out and stood at the door of the glass room. Then, he took off his mask and asked her, “How was it? Did you feel bored?”

Rae shook her head and said, “No, I think it seemed quite interesting. Before this, I also had thought about studying forensics. However, maybe I just didn’t dare to make that decision as I am afraid to face the corpse every day. Therefore, I gave up studying forensic and changed my ambition to become the police!”

After Gustavo finished listening to Rae’s words, he showed a regretful expression, “Oh, what a pity. If you go and study forensics, we might become classmates at that time. Then, I might have known you earlier! If we had met each other at school time, you would have been my little junior! Then, I will definitely take care of you, my little junior, like a gentleman!”

Rae also laughed lightly. The atmosphere between them was harmonious. “Then it was sure that you would be a good senior!”

Both of them were chatting in the lab and laughing for a while.

“What are you guys doing here?” Suddenly, a deep voice came from the doorway.

Rae and Gustavo looked towards the door and found that Marcel was standing at the first door of the laboratory. He looked calm and his voice was as light as a breeze like usual. However, Rae could hear the sharpness in his voice. Obviously, Marcel was unhappy.

Rae smiled faintly at Marcel. She stood up and greeted him, “Captain Hopkins!”

Her alienated expression and polite greeting made Marcel’s mood turned even worse. However, the thing that made him angrier was seeing Rae chatting and laughing with Gustavo in the laboratory. He had been watching them for a while at the door just now. Marcel became even unhappier at the moment.

He had determined that Rae was a slutty woman in his heart.

The contempt shown on his face was getting more obvious and his sarcastic vision looked so sharp and merciless.

Rae mentioned Marcel’s expression and she also noticed his contempt towards her. Her heart was in great pain suddenly. The kind of pain was spreading and reminding her that they were not a couple anymore, their relationship was ended long ago.

When Rae thought of that part, she smiled gently. She even mocked herself. How could she still have illusions about them? It was obvious that their relationship was ended. Rae told herself. ‘Silly girl, you can no longer think of these non-senses anymore. For the sake of your loved one, you can’t have expectations on the relationship between you and him.’

Maybe Gustavo had seen through the meaning of it, he asked, “Captain Hopkins, what’s the matter?”

Marcel turned his gaze and looked at Gustavo, “Of course, I have something to tell!”

After he finished saying that, he looked at Rae. It seemed that he was not willing to say it in front of Rae.

Rae knew it for sure. However, she chose to act stupid like she didn’t understand his words and sat back on the bench.
