The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 965

Chapter 965 Walk Out Alive

The search lasted the entire morning. The grim-faced Cayden, who returned with his subordinates in the afternoon, said, “We found nothing, Mr. Farwell.”

Admittedly, Cory was an excellent private investigator. Cayden could not help but wonder how he had managed to keep in touch with his employers.

Not only did Cayden not find any evidence of how the mastermind instructed Cory to spy on Roxanne, but he also could not find proof that could expose Cory’s identity as a private investigator.

Cory began playing the sympathy card. “Mr. Farwell, I told you no one instructed me to do anything.” Lucian waited for half a day but did not get the answer he was looking for. His eyes blazed with fury when he saw the pretentious innocent look on the culprit’s face.

“If no one put you up to this, why did you stalk her?” he asked.

Cory blinked innocently. “B-Because I find Ms. Jarvis attractive. I wished to snap photos of her since I was trying my hand at photography.”

He had felt nervous before Cayden carried out his investigations, but upon realizing the latter got nothing on him, he started speaking more boldly.

Lucian was about to explode. He kept staring at Cory, giving him the killer glare.

Instead of continuously triggering him, Cory kept mum and stood quietly in the middle of the room.

“Mr. Farwell, what if we…” A cold glint flashed across Cayden’s eyes as he could not stand how the man disrespected Lucian. There are many ways to interrogate a person. We’ll find one that can make him spill out the truth.

Cory started panicking as he could sense the murderous intent in his voice.

Suddenly, Lucian’s deep voice reverberated in their ears. “Release him.”

“Mr. Farwell!” Cayden was reluctant to do so. How can we let him go when we haven’t gotten anything out of him? Besides, we should teach him a lesson for his arrogance!

Cory, too, was struck dumb. He did not expect Lucian to let him off. I can’t believe my ears!
