Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 564

Larissa had no energy to beat around the bush. She asked straightforwardly, "Was it Yvette?"

From Gary's reaction, it didn't seem to be the case. Gary hesitated for a moment and shook his head. "No, it's not her."

Needless to say, Larissa was a little surprised by his answer. Since she returned to Caldor, she had kept a low profile and tried to avoid any contact with her enemies in the past. It was only for Aster's sake that she revealed the past in an exposé out of anger recently.

"It's Lana." Before Larissa could probe further, Gary told her the answer.

Lana … Her guess wasn't too far off anyway.

Gary carefully observed Larissa's reaction. When he didn't see any signs of sadness or disappointment on her face, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"She has already been taken into custody by the police."

Gary didn't mention that it was largely thanks to Kevan. His men were in a hurry to send Larissa to the hospital, so they were unable to intercept the culprit. Fortunately, another car rushed out in time and smashed into Lana's car so that she could not escape.

Later, Gary heard that the men in that car were connected to Kevan.

However, the case wasn't progressing as smoothly as he had imagined.

Being caught on the spot for intentionally causing a car accident could be considered conclusive evidence. Considering Larissa's severe injuries, Lana should have been thrown into prison.

Despite that, the Seymour family revealed Lana's medical diagnosis stating that she was suffering from severe mental illness and was unable to control her actions.

In other words, if the case was brought to court, there was a high chance that Lana would not be held accountable for the crime.

Gary had doubted the authenticity of the diagnosis and demanded that the police conduct a thorough investigation.

The officer in charge of the case had also promised him that they would get a professional evaluation of Lana's mental state. However, he warned Gary beforehand, "The results of the evaluation might disappoint you. Based on her behavior during the interrogation, it seems that she really is mentally ill."
