It was late at night, and the children were deep asleep.
Rosalie’s abdomen was in pain, and she could not even sleep well.
Byron warmed her stomach as he muttered about her working so hard without paying attention to her health.
“It hurts because I didn't take care of my health after giving birth to the kids,” Rosalie said.
That made Byron feel bad, and he started to evaluate his mistakes.
His palm was warm, and the strength he exerted when he massaged her was just nice. Gradually, the pain Rosalie felt reduced.
“It’s not your fault. It only hurts most on the first day. I’ll be fine tomorrow!” Rosalie comforted Byron.
Then, she mentioned the car crash.
“After the investigation and looking through the surveillance camera footage provided by Linda and Mary, it shows no one had the chance to do anything to your car. I wonder if it's really because the brake has worn out.”
Byron concluded all the details found and looked at Rosalie, waiting for her to recall if she had missed anything.
“I had just bought the car, and it's impossible for the brake to wear out. The traffic police’s examination of the car wouldn't be wrong.” Byron denied his guess.
Suddenly, Rosalie thought of something.
“I pulled over somewhere and helped an old lady cross the road last night. It took me about a few minutes.” Rosalie pondered and could not recall anything strange.
She immediately told Byron the location. Byron immediately called Luther and asked him to further investigate with the traffic police.
Half an hour later, Byron’s hope was crushed. The surveillance camera on that stretch of road was not working.
He felt troubled.
It seemed that someone had indeed tampered with Rosalie’s car brake within that few minutes. Moreover, that person knew the surveillance camera there was not working.
