Chapter 1194 Checking Out
The man took the photo and frowned. “I think one of them did look like this girl, but it’s been a long time, so my memory’s fuzzy. If you want to know more, check with the cops. They were alerted to this case, so there should be a record.”
“Thanks.” He whipped out a stack of cash and handed it to the man. “I think the locals should know more about their neighbors. If they ever come back, can you give me a call?”
“Sure. Nothing to it, so save the money. Just give me your number.”
Alex left his number and gave the man the money. “Keep the money. Thanks for your help. I’ll check with the cops now.” And he got into his car. Panic flared in his heart. Even though he had no evidence, he had a feeling that the women were Jewel and her mother. All of a sudden, he got scared of the truth. If the answer was the very thing he had in mind…
Before he could come up with any plan, his phone rang. It was from a worried Jewel, and he felt soothed. “Hey, Jewel.”
“Found them?”
A sigh escaped Alex’s lips. “No. One of the women we saw last night is dead. The cops took two men and a woman away, but their faces were covered, so I am not sure if Damian was with them. I’m going to check with the cops. If he’s not among the suspects, then he might’ve run away.”
A moment of hesitation later, Jewel said, “I think we should drop this. Not like I’m going to run into him anyway.”
“We are not letting him run away. He has the answers to a lot of questions. Don’t worry. This won’t take long.”
