Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 619

Chapter 619 Only The Evidence Speaks The Truth

Logan's face went pale when he heard that, but he was quick to regain his composure a few seconds later and said, “It's true that the incident took place many years ago, but it was a traumatizing one for the Jenson family. I may not know the truth and the details behind the car accident, but I do know that Mr. Yael and Mr. David were not likely to have been present at the scene.”

Gwendolyn observed his expression closely as she pressed on, “Do you know where Uncle Yael and Uncle David were at the time, then?”

“They were keeping Old Mr. Jenson company right beside him when they heard about the car accident. I was with Old Mr. Jenson at the time as well, so I remember it very well,” Logan answered decisively.

Gwendolyn let out a sigh and shook her head in disappointment after hearing that.

“What do you mean by that, Mrs. Jenson? Do you not believe me?” Logan asked in confusion.

“There's no way I'd believe you. The information that I got from my investigation, you, Grandpa, and Uncle Yael all have conflicting parts that don't add up at all. Who is the one telling the truth, and who is not?” Gwendolyn replied.

Logan lowered his gaze and kept quiet.

Gwendolyn stepped forward and spoke softly. “Or perhaps, apart from the evidence, everyone else is lying. Maybe you are all trying to hide the truth behind what really happened.”

Logan's eyes went wide when he heard that, but he kept his head low and remained silent.

Gwendolyn let out another sigh and patted Logan on the shoulder as she said, “Uncle David left Salinsburgh the night Uncle Yael revealed this incident to Cedrick. If you insist that they don't know anything about the car accident, then I will assume you are defending them and helping them hide the truth.”

“Mrs. Jenson, I—”

Logan was about to say something when Gwendolyn cut him off, “Honestly, I don't believe someone as kind-hearted as Uncle David would do something so heartless either, but this incident has led to the death of Cedrick's parents, so he won't rest until he has found the truth behind it. He will surely have someone arrest Uncle David and bring him in for questioning at the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This case is far more complicated than you and Grandpa would have thought. You might think that it would just die down over time, but that's not the case for Cedrick. He will not stop until he has confirmed the truth behind his parents' deaths.”

Logan listened to everything Gwendolyn said even though he kept his head low the entire time.

“Logan, someone is bound to tell the truth sooner or later. If you know the truth behind this and care about Cedrick, then you should speak up as soon as possible. Dragging this on will only worsen the relationship between Cedrick and Grandpa. You wouldn't want to see Grandpa lose his grandson, would you?”

“Mrs. Jenson!”

Logan clenched his fists.

How could she talk about Old Mr. Jenson like that?

Gwendolyn didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said, so she continued, “Xander has gone missing. In order to have Cedrick spare him, Uncle Yael said he would never let Xander return to the Jenson family. Uncle Yael pulled a knife on Cedrick and tried to kill him last night. This is very serious and could land him in prison. If Uncle David is closely connected to this incident, then Cedrick would most likely go after him as well. If Grandpa and Cedrick were to fall out because of this, then Triss would be all he has left. Isn't that right, Logan?”

Logan had a conflicted look in his eyes.

As unpleasant as Gwendolyn's statement sounded, everything she said was true.

Noticing that Logan was starting to waver, Gwendolyn pressed on, “Neither of them are willing to confess, so you are the only person who can save Uncle David, Grandpa, Cedrick, and the Jenson family as a whole. Don't worry; Grandpa won't blame you for telling the truth.”

Logan's lips twitched slightly as he contemplated his options.

Right as he finally mustered the courage to speak, a housekeeper from the villa came outside and said, “Old Mr. Jenson has woken up and is asking for you, Logan.”

Logan quickly regained his senses and replied, “Understood. I will walk Mrs. Jenson to the entrance and will be there in five minutes.”
