Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 247

Then, I retreated into a corner with Mrs. Arlen, chatting for a while. She asked me a lot of questions about Evan - more questions than the police had asked.

What surprised me more is that she didn't hold back and asked about the scandal between Jaylan and Marissa!

Clearly, she already knew about my ordeal.

Surprised as I was, I had to tell her the truth. She also asked about my condition when I was ill, and I didn’t hide anything.

Her face turned grim, "I didn't expect Jaylan to be so audacious. Why would you tolerate such arrogance? Why didn't you call the police!"

I chuckled lightly, saying seriously, "It’s not that I could tolerate it, the matter is complicated and involves a lot. There are many mysteries that I can't explain."

Mrs. Arlen looked at me with confusion, her eyes full of questions. So, I briefly explained the strange things that couldn't be explained.

Mrs. Arlen was shocked and looked at me incredulously, "Are you saying that even public officials are involved?"

I nodded solemnly, "Probably!"

She swore fiercely, "Those bastards! They dare to ignore the law!"

"That's why I'm worried, the child may be in danger!" I hinted anxiously, "The one who took the child should be someone familiar!"

"So, the child's mother should know the child's whereabouts?" Mrs. Arlen was clever, "Otherwise, she wouldn't have confronted you so aggressively!"

"But now, Marissa is dead without any evidence!" I spoke bluntly, "All this indicates that there must be a mastermind behind the scenes!"

"It seems like there's no smoke without fire!" Mrs. Arlen muttered, which made me jump. It seemed that Mrs. Arlen knew something, but I didn't think it appropriate to inquire further.
