Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 444

Chapter 444 I’ll Think About It Again

If Selena really wanted to kill someone, she would certainly have made some proper arrangements for her children to be away from the scene, but at that time, the three children were in the bridal party, and so they were among the crowd in the banquet hall.

In fact, the surveillance footage also showed that when Selena was toasting to John, the three children were watching the fun close by, so when John was poisoned and slumped back in his chair, they witnessed everything very clearly.

“Okay, but if a higher-level autopsy is to be conducted, it is necessary for us to dissect the body for further examination. You, as the daughter-in-law of the victim, are eligible to sign the consent form, but…” The officer did not continue further.

Selena was taken aback; she understood what dissecting the body meant. It meant that they had to cut John’s body into pieces and then send them to separate places for individual examination. Pierre was not around, and his father had died, so how was she to sign the consent for such an autopsy?

“Isn’t there another way?” Selena’s voice began to falter.

“No. Although the forensic laboratory has very high-end inspection equipment, if you want to carry out a detailed autopsy, it is still not good enough. Therefore, we need to send each body part to the best laboratories, which are not located in one place.

It’s just like when we go in for medical consultations; if we want to check our brain, we go to the best neurologist; if we want to check our foot, we go to the best foot specialist. Do you understand?”

Selena hung her head in silence. After all, keeping a body whole was the greatest respect one could offer the dead. Astoria had always held firm such a tradition to keep the body of the dead as complete as possible. But if she were to request for the detailed autopsy, it would mean that such an influential figure as John Fowler could not even keep his body whole upon death! Besides, he was Pierre’s father!

“Have you thought it through? If you’re clear about it, I’ll print out the information and apply for it through my superiors, and then you can just sign.”

“I’ll think about it again.” Selena did not dare to make this decision on a whim.

On the other hand, Jude and Wyatt sent the three kids home. Although there were maids at home, having witnessed John’s death, it was inevitable that the three kids were still scared. All of them did not eat much and did not play as much as before.
