The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 915

Lewis had followed me inside after parking the car. I had been so focused on Officer Sutton that I completely forgot he was there.

His unexpected observation caught me off guard. "You saw him at the crash site?"

When the accident happened, my mind had completely flatlined. I only had eyes for Ferris's broken body flying across the pavement. My only thought was rushing to his side; I had absolutely zero awareness of the crowd.

I never imagined Lewis had the presence of mind to spot a random stranger.

Catching my disbelief, Lewis explained, "Normally, I wouldn't have noticed him either, but he stood out like a sore thumb. Everyone else was rushing toward Mr. Sterling to help. This guy was the only one walking away. I practically brushed shoulders with him."

He pointed adamantly at Sidney Skylar, raising his voice. "He had this twisted, excited look in his eyes. When he tipped his hat down, I saw a scorpion tattoo on his right hand."

"He does have a scorpion tattooed on his right hand," Officer Sutton confirmed softly.

The details were a perfect match.

"His behavior fits the profile, too. Some criminals get a thrill from lingering at the scene to admire their handiwork. He could definitely fit the bill," Officer Sutton added.

I stared at Sidney Skylar. Was he the one who ran Ferris down?

But the fake cop was incredibly suspicious too! I vividly recalled the sickening anxiety I felt around him. My intuition was rarely wrong.

Just then, a sharp voice crackled through the speakers. "Wade Winston, what are you doing?"

I jumped, then realized it was Officer West confronting the third suspect in the interrogation room.
