The Fortune-Telling Heiress novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69 

After Carins revealed the whereabouts of the stolen artifacts and the identities of his accomplices, the entire criminal investigation team sprang into action. 

Artifact theft was a major crime, and no one expected that capturing a murderer would lead to such a significant breakthrough

The whole wam was thrilled, and so were John and the others, who insisted on joining the investigation 

Those artifacts are national treasures! Do you even know how to protect them?one of them asked… 

Tack sighed and reluctantly agreed to take them along 

With the case resolved, the interrogating officer escorted Madison out

As they reached the door, Madison suddenly turned back. She looked at Carlos, who was slumped in a chair, and said, You were destined to have a son and a daughter, but your family has been tomb raiders for generations, which should have ended your lineage. Yet, it continues. Do you know why

Carlos led his head, his eyes vacant as he stared at her. He knew that even if he escaped the death penalty, he would spend the rest of his life in prison 

Madison continued, If you looked at your family tree, you’d notice that the men in your family always married women from good, virtuous families, and your daughters always married into families with great merits

Your first wife came from a happy family with a lot of good deeds and deep blessings. If you had stayed with her, you could have had both a son and adaughter.” 

Carlos remained silent, but his thoughts wandened to his family. His father was a tomb raider, but his mother came from a family of teachers. His grandparents were reowned educators, widely respected for their good deeds

He then thought of his first wife, a gentle and kind woman who regularly volunteered at orphanages and nursing homes. He used to mock her for wasting her came and energy on those who didn’t matter

Seeing the change in his expression, Madison said, You don’t believe me when I say you were meant to have both a sun and a daughter because your first wife only gave you a daughter, right

Carloseyes widened as he locked at Madiso 

Madison calmly delivered a harsh truth. She asked, Do you know where the son your first wale was supposed to give you is?” 

Gurls frowned, lost in thought

After a long pause, he suddenly looked up at Madison in disbelief

Madison confirmed his suspicions, Yes, When you killed your wife, she was pregnant with your child

She paused and emphasized, The son you always wanted.” 

As she walked out the door, Carles anguished areas echoed behind her. His suffering was primarily due to the pain of losing something he was meant to have because of his 

When Madison remmed to the Locke residence, William simply told her to get some rest without asking much 

Not long after she returned to the bedmom, Tanga came back

Is Becky still throwing and William asked

Tanya nodded. She says there’s something in the house that stares her. It we don’t get rid of it, she won’t come back.” 

She sighed. I still need to call Ethan and Jason.” 

William frowned. Ethan and jason already have issues with Maddie. If they Endout, who knows what kind of fuss they’ll make 

I know. I’ve already stopped Becky from calling them,Tanya said. She got under the covers and lay down Honey, I’m a bit scared, too. Maybe we should talk to Maddie Tomorrow?!
