It was a call from the police station.
Kian pressed the speakerphone button after picking up so that he wouldn't have to repeat the
information to Ayan.
"Hello, Kian," the police officer responsible for the matter on the police station's side said, "We just
received a distress call claiming to know the whole truth about Mrs. Armstrong's incident."
Given the involvement of Page and the high current attention on the matter, it was impossible for
the police not to take it seriously.
Faced with this inquiry, Kian naturally couldn't provide an answer and subconsciously looked at
Ayan.
Ayan's face remained cold, showing no obvious expression. He only squinted his eyes slightly and
said in a calm voice, "Since the other party knows the truth, please have the police station
investigate in detail and provide our family with the truth as soon as possible."
The police on the other end also recognized Ayan's voice and quickly responded, "Certainly, Mr.
Simpson. We will dispatch officers to communicate with the informant."
Ayan didn't speak further and handed over the matter to Kian.
While Kian was wrapping up the call, Ayan had already walked over to the desk and sat down. He
leaned back on the chair, emitting an air of chilly detachment.noveldramaAfter finishing the call, Kian approached the desk, put down the documents in his hand, and
whispered, "Mr. Simpson, do you think this so-called informant might have some ulterior motive in
wanting to gain something from this?"
"Is it important? This matter has nothing to do with us. As for the motives of others, it's their own
business. We only need to hand everything over to the police for handling. After all, I'm just doing
what a son-in-law should do. If someone doubts or makes a fuss about it, we can also play the
sympathy card."
Ayan seemed to anticipate something. A handsome face exuded a cold chill, and his gaze became
particularly indifferent and sinister. After he finished speaking, Kian fell into a brief silence for a few
seconds, then whispered, "Mr. Simpson, should we temporarily assign someone to keep an eye on
the police's actions? I'm concerned that if we neglect it, the police might think we no longer care,
and they won't communicate with us promptly. It seems a bit passive."
"Hmm, I understand what you mean." Ayan squinted his eyes slightly, his expression turning colder.
He said, "Handle it as you see fit. You can communicate with Logan and keep each other informed.
That way, we won't end up in a passive situation."
"Okay, I understand. I'll contact Logan later," Kian quickly responded.
After their conversation ended, they continued to busy themselves with work.
It wasn't until close to lunchtime that Kian received a call from the forensic examiner, naturally about
the detailed examination report.
After an in-depth conversation with the forensic examiner, Kian obtained the results and then
knocked on Ayan's office door.He truthfully conveyed the examiner's words to Ayan and asked, "Should we release the results
directly?"
"No rush. First, communicate the results with the police, and then talk to the two individuals in
custody based on the results," Ayan said calmly. In fact, he wasn't surprised by these results at all.
After all, when something happened, there would always be someone who had to pay the price for
those results.
Just learning about the result, Ayan felt a bit gloomy. His gloominess wasn't for anyone involved in
the matter but solely for Camille's sake. Even though they hadn't been kind to Camille, she still felt
sad and hurt. This was an indelible point.
So he started to regret a bit, wondering why he didn't tell Camille the truth about certain things
earlier. If he had told her, would she have been less distressed? After all, they had been extremely
indifferent to Camille, and if she hadn't married him, perhaps their attitude toward her would have
been even worse?
It was evident from Camille's childhood that they had sent her straight to Flento City to live with her
grandmother. Ayan was grateful that Camille received abundant love from her grandmother.
Ayan took a silent breath, his voice shallow, as he said, "You should personally go to the police
station and tell them about this evidence, let them make a choice!"
Kian was momentarily stunned, but he immediately understood the meaning behind Ayan's words.
Kian said, "Mr. Simpson, wouldn't it be unwise if this were to get out?"
"The forensic examiner is on our side; no one will leak anything." Besides, even if this matter did get
leaked, it wouldn't matter. They had complete control at the moment, so he wasn't worried about
that.Following Ayan's instructions, Kian went to the police station and personally met Brody. He
explained the forensic examination results in detail and then asked, "Mr. Armstrong, Mr. Simpson
wants you to make a choice. I believe you understand what choice he's referring to."
Brody remained silent with a stern face, his expression filled with indifference.
He seemed hesitant and conflicted, but no matter how hesitant and conflicted one might be, when
faced with self-interest, one would inevitably succumb.
Brody looked up at Kian and asked, "Is Ayan really willing to help me?"
"Mr. Simpson is not helping you; he just doesn't want to see Mrs. Armstrong hurt." Kian noticed that
when Brody mentioned Camille, his face twitched slightly. Kian also knew the reason behind his
reaction. He continued, "Mr. Armstrong and Mrs. Armstrong haven't been good to the lady. I think
Mr. Armstrong is well aware of this. However, the lady still considers the bond with the Armstrong
family. Now that the Armstrong family has experienced such a significant event, and considering the
rumors that have been circulating, it would be better for Mr. Armstrong to make a decision sooner
rather than later."
After hesitating for two or three seconds, Brody spoke up, "I want to report Regina. My wife's death
is related to Regina."
As Brody finished speaking, Kian also stood up.
In truth, Kian had already developed a strong contempt for Brody. Although it was Ayan's
arrangement for him to ask Brody, it was still disgusting how Brody readily implicated the woman he
had been with for many years with just a slight hesitation.
Naturally, that woman deserved to be condemned, having destroyed someone else's marriage. It
was truly disgusting and repugnant.However, as a man, Kian found Brody, who showed no sense of responsibility, even more
detestable. Men who only pushed all the blame onto women when faced with a situation were truly
unlucky. Page and Regina were the best outcome in dealing with such men.
Kian looked at Brody expressionlessly and said, "I will have the police come in and take your
statement. You can have a detailed conversation with them later!"
