Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 1013

Chapter 1013 Evidence

Nicholas told Tessa to stay away from the orchestra, and Tessa obliged in case someone tried to sabotage her again. She would practice the violin with Gregory at home in the morning and record her album at Simon’s place in the afternoon.

On the other hand, Kellen was in a rut from making no progress on the case. The news outlets were stopped from writing anything about it, but the orchestra’s fans were keeping a close eye on the case, and he needed to give his team members closure as well.

Just when he thought he had no lead to follow up on, his assistant came in. “The makeup artist for Tessa is here, Kellen. She said she probably knows who sabotaged Tessa.”

Kellen told his assistant to take the makeup artist to him. “You know who sabotaged Tessa?” Kellen asked the moment he met the makeup artist.

The makeup artist nodded and told him the conclusion she came up with after two days. “The cops say I was the only one who came in contact with Miss Reinhart’s makeup products, but Susan came to see her on that day as well. That makes her a suspect. When I was doing Miss Reinhart’s makeup, she approached the dressing table as well.”

Kellen frowned. He didn’t think Susan would sabotage Tessa, but the makeup artist’s conjecture concerned him. He asked his assistant to bring the security footage over. Since the investigation was already underway, they got the footage without a hitch.

After hearing what the makeup artist had to say, Kellen watched the footage seriously, especially from the moment Susan came in. When she was about to leave the room, Susan raised her hand, and Kellen saw something powdering fluttering from her fingertips. He narrowed his eyes. “Rewind that by three seconds and enlarge her fingertips.”

The assistant nodded and did what Kellen said. Then they saw something like powder falling from Susan’s nails.
