Archie stared at her with his dark eyes.
"That's it?"
"Or what? What do you think it is?"
"Nothing."
His eyes were complicated, and it was obvious that he had hidden something else. Natalia secretly tightened her fingers, and felt a little flustered for no reason.
But she was always good at camouflage. After she looked away, she quickly calmed down and did not show any traces on her face.
"Have you found anything?"
"Yes, I have."
Speaking of this, Natalia had nothing to hide. She took out the photo that Mr. K had given her.
"Someone did something to my mother's car, and the brake pad was cut in advance. I suspect that was just why the accident happened."
A flash of complex light was in Archie's eyes.
It was a faint cold light.
"Do you need my help?"
"No, I don't!"
Natalia answered straightforwardly, "I'll do it myself. I don't want to rely on anyone else."
Her mother had always been the one she loved most in the world. Five years ago, she was still young. For her mother's sudden death, she could do nothing but be at a loss and doubt.
But now it was different. Since she had the ability, she must find out the murderer by herself!
She would never let that murderer go!
Archie looked at her for a while and then nodded.
He touched her head and said softly, "Okay, if you need anything, you must let me know."
Natalia nodded.
Now that the misunderstandings had been cleared up, she had to eat food.
But when she went downstairs, Natalia felt a little embarrassed.
Archie smiled and didn't say anything. Mrs. Dottie was happy to see that they made peace so soon. She asked the servants to heat the cold food and take it back as soon as possible.
After dinner, Archie went to take a shower, while Natalia lay in bed in a daze.
She was still thinking of what the man had said before.
Selena was the adopted daughter of the Kawn family?
She had never heard of this before.
Then she thought of his daughter, who should be very young. Where was her mother? Where did she go?
Was she Archie's ex-girlfriend? Or...
Could the daughter be the result of a one-night stand?
Thinking of this, Natalia suddenly felt disgusted.
Although she still felt a little uncomfortable, she knew that everyone had a past, not only Archie, but also her.
So she didn't have to dig into it.
It was late at night. Natalia couldn't help yawning.
Just then, Archie's phone rang.
He put his phone on the bedside table and didn't take it into the bathroom.
Therefore, as soon as Natalia sat on the bed, she could see the caller ID on the screen.
There were several simple letters on the screen.
-Baby.
Natalia's eyebrows twitched.
Baby? Was it... his daughter?
She took a look in the direction of the bathroom. It wasn't long after Archie went in. It should take a while for him to come out.
She was wondering whether she should give him the phone or not.
The phone was suddenly hung up.
Looking at the darkening screen, she thought for a while and was about to go back to sleep.
However, a few seconds later, the phone rang again.
It was that number again.
She hesitated for a moment, thinking that there might be something wrong with the child calling again and again.
