My ex-wife is so beautiful novel (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 905

Chapter 905 May Not Be Father And Daughter

“And then what? Did you hear from the police what was said between them?” Jared said quietly, pinching his nose.

Ben shook his head, “I'm sorry, Mr. Farrell, no. The policeman said when Connor Stockert arrived, he asked to see Alice

alone. The police couldn't let him get away with Alice, but Connor Stockert was also a big taxpayer. The police wouldn't say no to

his little request, so they don't know what they said when they met alone, but..””

“Just say it!” Jared scowled.

Ben coughed. He did not hesitate to go on, “One of the police officers who brought Connor Stockert to Alice did, however,

provide some surprising information about Stockert's attitude toward Alice, and Alice's attitude toward Stockert. He said they didn't

look like father and daughter, more like superiors and subordinates.”

"Oh?" Jared stopped his hand on the bridge of his nose and looked a little suspicious, “Superiors and subordinates?”

“That's what the officer said, but ! don't know, because I didn't see it.” Ben answered.

Jared rubbed his thumb a few times, “Did he elaborate on why they weren't like father and daughter, but like superiors and

subordinates?”

“Yes.” Ben nodded, “He said that When Connor Stockert met Alice, there was no emotion or joy in his face. If he’s not happy,

he should be angry. After all, a father should be angry when his daughter did something this bad. But he didn't. Connor Stockert

was calm when he saw Alice, as if she is not his daughter, but someone unrelated”

"Well..” Jared lowered his eyes and murmured thoughtfully before asking again, “What about Alice?”

“Alice, too, did not look happy to see Connor Stockert. If they were a normal father and daughter, wouldn't she be thrilled to

see him come to her rescue? But Alice didn’t. When she saw Connor Stockert, she was horrified.”

*Horrified?”

Ben nodded, "Yeah, I double-checked, and the officer said she was scared. It was impossible for them, in their line of work,

who have met so many different people, to have misread that expression.”

Jared stopped talking because that was true.

It was not until sometime later that he spoke again, “Go on”

“Okay.” Ben continued, “Alice was afraid of Connor Stockert, and that fear was genuine. Police say Connor Stockert must

have done something to her, so she was so scared when she saw Connor Stockert. The policeman was also surprised when Alice

saw Connor Stockert, instead of calling him father or dad, she called him “Mr. Stockert”. That's why the cops were wondering if they

were father and daughter.”

When the father saw his daughter, he did not feel happy, nor did he feel angry.

When the daughter saw her father, she was not excited to be saved, but terrified.

It was weird in every way.

Jared narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything. He was thinking.

Alice was afraid of Connor Stockert.

Connor Stockert did something really horrible to Alice.

Would a father do something terrible to his daughter?

There must be such fathers in the world, but he still betieved they were in the minority.

Connor Stockert, no matter how sick he was, was unlikely to do anything terrible to his daughter.

Unless, of course, they were not father and daughter!

Not father and daughter...

Jared's eyes flashed as the thought came to his mind.

Yeah, well, if they weren't father and daughter, that would explain everything.

“Ben.” Jared said.

When Ben heard this, he stood up, “Mr. Farrell, what can I do for you?”

“Find a way to get DNA from Alice and Connor Stockert. Jared said quietly.

Ben realized something and asked, “Mr. Farrell, do you think..”

Jared said yes.

Ben took a breath, “It's possible. I just don't get it. If they're not really father and daughter, why would they pretend to be?”
