Linda did not overthink it as she urgently needed money now.
Thus, she hung up the phone and hurried across the road, but a car appeared out of nowhere and rammed into her.
A loud shriek pierced through the stagnant air, and Linda was knocked into the air, flew in the air, and landed a few feet away from the car.
One of her shoes fell off, and the screen of the cell phone beside her shattered.
Her face landed on the ground, and she seemed to be staring straight ahead with an unwilling gaze.
Her fingertips trembled as her pupils gradually dilated, and a pool of scarlet blood oozed out from behind her head.
A man walked up to her, picked up her phone with a gloved hand, pulled out the SIM and SD card, broke them forcibly, and threw them into the flowerbed in the middle of the road.He then walked back to the parked car and got into the car.
Cecile, who was sitting in the rear seat, retracted her gaze as the corners of her cherry lips twitched.
"Let's go." Maisie called Hector, obtained Linda’s number from him, and tried to call her, but her phone was turned off.
Hence, she asked Saydie to track Linda down.
However, the result of the investigation led them to the hospital’s mortuary.
She hurried to the hospital with Saydie.
The police officers were communicating with the doctor when she stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, may I know if the deceased who was brought in is called Linda Vanderbilt?"
One of the officers picked up the ID card and took a glance at it.
"Who are you, and what’s your relationship with the deceased?" Maisie pursed her lower lip.
"I’m her cousin." The police officer nodded.
"We’re just trying to contact her family members, but because her phone has broken, and the SIM card isn’t in the phone..." Maisie frowned.
"What’s the cause of death?"
He replied, "A car accident.And apparently, the street where she was knocked over doesn’t have any surveillance cameras set up, so the perpetrator fled.When she was found, and we rushed to the scene, it was already too late."
The officers left after asking Maisie some more questions.
Maisie was left standing in the empty corridor, wondering about something.
Nolan and Quincy arrived later.He saw Maisie sitting o n the bench and hurried forward.
"Zee."
