Thinking about this, Cristofer sneered.
“Mr. Hans, there’s one thing that I think you should think about carefully,” Vincent said.
“What’s it?”
“Since Miss Hudson didn’t kill Mrs. Moorsum, then the murderer could only be...” Vincent said. He didn’t finish his words, but what he meant was obvious. “I know that Miss Abrams accompanied you to go through the hard times, and you love her very much. But if it’s really she who killed Mrs. Moorsum, you’d think carefully about her motive to do so.”
Cristofer's face darkened. “I know what I should do.”
“Sorry, Mr. Hans. I’m babbling.”
“Vincent, go on with the investigation and try to find the car. Besides, send someone to go to Ameris and bring Estelle’s son back,” Cristofer said.
“Mr. Hans, that child...”
“What’s wrong with that child?”
“I have done a paternity test for you and that child. He... He’s not your son.”
Cristofer stood up in an instant and asked, “What?”
Vincent felt a little embarrassed and said, “The child does look like you, but the test result showed that he is not your son.”
“Didn’t you say that he was very likely...”
Before Cristofer could finish his words, Vincent said, “To confirm the truth of the result, I sent the samples to different hospitals and testing organisations for paternity tests. The result coming from the hospital that Miss Hudson used to stay in is the only one confirming that the child is your son. I even especially took the samples to Ameris for a test, and the result shows that the child is not your son.”
Hearing this, Cristofer slumped back into his chair in frustration.
‘The boy is really not my son... He’s five years old now, meaning Estelle was pregnant about six years ago. At that time, we were still passionately in love and were preparing for our wedding, but she actually had an affair and got pregnant with another man’s child! No wonder she went to Ameris not long after the car accident. It must be because the child’s father was in Ameris.’
Thinking about it, Cristofer laughed at his foolishness.
“Mr. Hans, do you still need me to bring that child back?” Vincent asked.
“No,” Cristofer said coldly. “I have nothing to do with that bastard.”
Seeing his darkened face, Vincent said, “I see, Mr. Hans. And I’ll go on looking for the car.”
“Okay.”
“By the way, Mr. Hans, I forgot to tell you that Miss Abrams called me before to ask where you were. I told her that you had gone to Hans’ Residence to look after Miss Yvonne.”
Cristofer nodded and said, “Got it.”

After hanging up on Cristofer, Estelle took a deep breath and was in a better mood.
Ron had been waiting for her outside the restaurant. Seeing her come out, he opened the car door for her. “Miss Hudson, please.”
Estelle nodded and said, “Thank you very much.”
“My pleasure,” Ron said gently.
“Ron, does Mr...” Estelle wanted to ask something about Mr. Mysterious but was interrupted by Ron.
“Miss Hudson, no one can discover what Mr. Mysterious doesn’t want others to know. You just need to enjoy your current life now. Mr. Mysterious will handle everything for you.”
“Okay.”
While they were talking, Estelle’s phone rang again.
She thought that it was Cristofer calling again and felt a little annoyed. But when she saw the caller ID, she found that it was Rebecca who was calling her.
Then she answered the phone. “Hi, Rebecca.”
“Estelle, a friend of mine, came back from abroad not long ago and set up a jewellery company. He’s recruiting a jewellery designer. So you can have a try!” Rebecca said happily.
Hearing that, Estelle got excited and said, “Really? Rebecca, thank you so much.”
“Don’t mention it. My friend is also a professional designer and can be counted as an expert in this field, so he has very high standards when choosing a designer. I heard that he had interviewed hundreds of designers before, but no one could meet his expectations. Anyway, you can have a try first. It will be better if you pass the interview. If you fail, I will help you find another job!” Rebecca assured her.
Rebecca quickly sent Estelle the information and address of her friend’s company. The interview would begin at two o’clock the next afternoon.
She also told Estelle on the phone that the company had received a big order recently and was in urgent need of recruiting a suitable designer. And if Estelle could get the position, she would be well-paid.
After returning to the hotel, Estelle searched for the company’s information online.
The company’s name was Only Love Jewelry. It had a unique rule that a man could only buy one customised ring with his ID card in his whole life for the woman he loved, presenting the highest promise of “you’re my one and only in my whole life”.
However, this company was disliked by many people. It was said that many remarried rich men who wanted to buy wedding rings from Only Love Jewelry were refused, although they were willing to pay more for the rings.
When Estelle saw this, she thought, ‘The boss of this company is a real personality. The customised wedding rings of this company are almost as expensive as those of famous jewellery brands. If he took the orders, he would make a lot of money. But he didn’t. Well, maybe he doesn’t lack money.’
Only Love Jewelry was popular among young people because the wedding rings could be customised according to the customers’ requirements and were unique worldwide.
And it was precisely because of this that the company demanded a lot of excellent designers.
Every time the company took an order, the designers would have to design a ring of a new style, which was very tiring. And many designers in the company would resign after working in this company for some time because of the high pressure. Therefore, Only Love Jewelry had been recruiting new designers all year round.
To provide the best service for the customers, the boss of the company set a very high standard for recruiting designers, and the pass rate of the interviews was shallow.
Recently, Only Love Jewelry received a big order from a rich man who generously paid two million dollars for customised wedding rings. However, the man and his fiancee were not satisfied with all the designs demonstrated to them. Therefore, the company was in a hurry to recruit new designers.
