The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 2075

Chapter 2075 Blue Ring

Lucian, who was often composed, was surprisingly anxious as he hit the accelerator.

He didn't want to wait any longer to discover if his mother-in-law's heirloom was hidden in the photo frame.

A grim expression was set on Roxanne's countenance. Her heart was racing. Winnie cares so much about the object Mom left behind that she's still searching for it after failing for more than a decade. Whatever it is, it must be important. Perhaps it's evidence that she killed Mom. I really want to know how she inflicted a slow-acting poison on Mom because they didn't interact with each other directly back then!

Ten minutes later, they arrived at the Jarvis residence.

It was morning, but Bill was still searching around with the bodyguards. They knocked on the walls, trying to locate a hidden storage space.

When he saw the couple rushing in, he asked, “Did something happen?”

Lucian shook his head, zipped through the living room, and entered his mother-in-law's room.

Seeing that the wedding photo was still affixed on the wall, he became more at ease.

The picture was hung relatively high, so Roxanne grabbed a chair for Lucian to stand on before he carefully lowered the picture frame.

This is heavy! The mahogany frame must be expensive.

Confusion swirled in Bill’s eyes as he watched the couple. A few seconds later, he understood something.

“I examined the picture before but didn't notice how unusual the frame was.” As a famous, experienced cop, he could swiftly realize what he had missed.

Lucian nodded. Like last time, he quickly removed the heavy mahogany frame columns.

Then he brushed his hand along the columns and grinned. The difference in weight is subtle, but I can still tell one side is lighter than the others.

He proceeded to lay three other frame columns aside and inspected the one in his hand scrupulously.
