In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 391

"Chief Hopkins, you know who I am. Can't you make an exception?"

Timothy looked troubled, his brows furrowing as he muttered, "Mr. Stevens, this isn't appropriate."

Callum hadn't expected Timothy to be so stubborn. He was about to say something when Xander stopped him.

Xander remained unbothered, and he spoke calmly. He carried himself like a true leader. "Let's meet the police officer handling the case first."

Callum's irritation instantly diminished. "Alright."

The contrast in his behavior before and after was so stark that Timothy, who was standing nearby, was left dumbfounded. He was more curious about Xander's identity now.

Hence, his attitude toward Xander improved. "Mr. Fulton, this way, please."

They entered the police station. When they walked into the office, a uniformed officer was already waiting.

"Mr. Fulton, Mr. Stevens, this is Officer James Anderson," Timothy introduced.

"Officer Anderson, this is Mr. Stevens. You can discuss the details of the case with him."

James saluted formally. Timothy found an excuse to leave as they sat down, giving them space.

Once Timothy had left, James said, "The chief mentioned you want to know about a car accident that happened five years ago?"

"Officer Anderson, this case is very important to us. Please share everything you know."

James smiled and explained, "This case caused quite a stir then, so I remember it well. Before you arrived, I had reviewed the case file again.

"Skin grafting surgery?"

"Yes, burn victims often suffer deep emotional trauma. To mend this, they usually choose cosmetic reconstruction or skin grafting surgery to restore their appearance."

So Jessica had undergone plastic surgery.

But even if someone had plastic surgery to change their appearance, certain things would remain the same, like a person's habits, mannerisms, or work style.

Maybe Xander's assumption wasn't wrong, and the person they're dealing with wasn't the real Jessica.

So where was the real Jessica?

"There were two survivors in the accident, one being Ms. Jessica, the heiress of Landon Group, the person you specifically came to inquire about today."
