The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 557

"Someone turned themselves in?"

Nora stood up in disbelief, exchanging a quick look with Nathan. She immediately put the phone on speaker so he could hear the conversation.

"Yes."

"He ingested Paraquat right before walking in. The poison took effect the moment he confessed. We rushed him to the hospital, but he didn't make it."

"Paraquat?!"

What kind of twisted determination drove someone to drink a poison like that!

It was leaving absolutely no way out.

He had turned himself in with the sole intention of dying.

"Did he say why?"

"And how exactly did he tamper with my car?"

Nora couldn't understand it. Even if he confessed to tampering with the car, the most he would face under the law was an attempted murder charge.

With a good lawyer, he might have even gotten a reduced sentence.

He wouldn't have been in prison for life.

If he wasn't afraid of dying from Paraquat, was he really afraid of jail time?

What possible reason forced him to drink it?

"He said he couldn't stand you. He claimed that people like you, who dissect corpses, deserve to die."

"He said your autopsy work violates human decency and ethics, and that you'll definitely rot in hell when you die."

Judging by her colleague's tone, the suspect's actual words were likely much more vile.

Her face darkened, her emotions shifting violently behind her eyes.

"Have you confirmed his identity?"

Seeing her silence, Nathan stepped in and asked the question.

The colleague on the line wasn't surprised that Nathan was with Nora.
