The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 300

Nathan and the officer exchanged a knowing glance, completely ignoring the developer's theatrics.

Based on Mr. Lawson's own account, he had likely pulled plenty of strings to sabotage their relationship from the shadows.

It was still unclear if this twisted drama directly triggered Evelyn's murder. If it did, they would uncover the evidence in due time.

For now, there was no need to apply extreme pressure and accidentally tip their hand.

Their primary objective was untangling the timeline and mapping out Evelyn's volatile social circles.

They finally arrived at Evelyn's luxury high-rise.

The chaotic sobbing and screeching that had been echoing across the complex was amplified tenfold up close.

Pushing their way through the massive crowd, Nathan and the officer found two frantic people in their fifties wailing on the ground in the center of the plaza.

They smacked their thighs dramatically, screaming at the top of their lungs about how cold-blooded and evil the building management was.

"My perfectly healthy daughter moved into this building, and now she's dead! Shouldn't the property management be held responsible?"

"A grown woman gets slaughtered inside her own luxury apartment—how the hell does something like this even happen?"

"We're not leaving until we get some answers! If your management can't give us justice, we're planting ourselves right here!"

"That's right! We're not leaving!"

The older woman was spearheading the theatrics, while her husband propped her up, occasionally chiming in to keep the dramatic momentum going.

"Look at this mess... how is her getting murdered our building's fault?"

Mr. Lawson paced frantically in a tight circle. "We're victims here, too! This has absolutely nothing to do with us!"

"How were we supposed to know Evelyn was going to get killed?"

"Demanding a payout from us is basically extortion! Officers, you have to help me!"

Nathan shot Mr. Lawson a cool look. "Calm down."
