Chapter 314
After about an hour, a delivery bike arrived at the door of Larson Residence.
John was on the phone in his car when it happened. He watched the delivery man open the container on his bike, take out two bags of groceries, and then ring the doorbell beside the gate.
Quickly, the door opened, and the delivery man jogged in.
John smiled. It seemed like Olivia was going to cook up a storm today.
Wes’ voice came from the other end of the line. “Sir, I’ve sent you the details. We need to attend a meeting out of town tomorrow. Please don’t forget about it.”
“Okay.”
“Sir, the incident from two years ago that you got me to investigate might be a little complicated.”
John barked coldly, “What about it?”
“We have all the relevant video recordings from the incident, but the only witness, Cole Zachary, is dead, so there’s a lot of things we can’t seek confirmation on.”
What happened two years ago had always been a thorn in John’s side.
Even if he felt like he had wronged Olivia, he could not let go of the hatred.
After a long pause, John asked, “Where is she?”
Wes knew that he was asking about Dorothy, so he replied to John, “There’s no news of Ms, Ellis leaving town, but I’m sure she’s no longer in Ocean City. She must be deliberately hiding from us. Also…”
“Spit it out!”
“Three years ago, Ms. Ellis did abort a child, and that left her infertile. That means the report.she got you to read was a fake one. I’ve got witnesses.”
John balled his fists up tightly, and the veins on his forehead popped out, displaying that he was so angry he could no longer hold it in. “That’s it?”
“There’s more.” Wes had sensed John’s anger and was sweating buckets.
“Ms. Ellis was once in a relationship with Ben Wilson, the Larsons’ past driver. He was the man who hit Mr. Quinton.”
“That’s all?”
“Sir…” Wes was a little afraid. “When you slept with Ms. Ellis, you were drunk, but that does not diminish the possibility of you having been drugged.”
