Chapter 284: Chapter 284

Trevor was satisfied with Nancy’s reaction. His lips curled into a mocking smile. “You didn’t expect that, did you?” Nancy’s eyes were full of hatred. Trevor said coldly, “And you didn’t expect her to be so skilled at boxing, too, did you?” Nancy was even more furious. She was the one who wanted Annalise’s life in the first place. But in the end, she was the one who fell into their hands. Trevor continued, “Annalise’s medical skills are brilliant, and her mentor is Joseph Quigley. She had already become a graduate student at 20 years old. Her techniques are even better than yours, the famous boxer. Nancy, how were you so bold to think you’re better than her?”

Nancy was even more indignant. Just wait. After she settled this matter, she would find another opportunity to end Annalise. Annalise was the bane of her existence. “Uh… You…” Suddenly, her throat was slit. She could feel the heat gushing out of her neck. She reached out to cover her neck. Her hands were covered in blood. She felt the strength in her body quickly draining away. Her body could not take it anymore. She went limp. She heard Trevor say, “My technique is not as good as Annalise’s.

She can extend someone’s life for an hour. But my knife… will only kill people on the spot.”

“Ugh…” Nancy’s body went limp. She tried to stand up again, and blood instantly gushed down from her neck. Trevor quickly left the scene. About ten minutes after Trevor left the scene, the police siren sounded. A dozen armed cops went upstairs. When they reached the eighteenth floor, they discovered many bloodstains and the corpse of a masked woman. They took the fingerprints from the scene.

Then, they removed her mask after swabbing her blood for a DNA sample. Someone recognized her as the eldest daughter of the Zeller family.

Immediately, he contacted Jimmy’s wife, Lily, to come and identify the corpse. After Lily identified the corpse, she hugged Nancy’s body, which had not gone cold. Lily cried so much that she was out of breath. Her heart ached, and she was furious. She gritted her teeth and said, “Please find the murderer and bring them to justice.” She would hire someone to investigate this matter, too. She would never let the murderer off. The police said they would do their utmost.

It was not only because the victim was the Zeller family’s eldest daughter, and her status was extraordinary. But more importantly, someone had been murdered in broad daylight in a place like Jadeborough. That was an utter disregard for the law. It was infuriating. Yechiel also rushed over. He could not believe his eyes. His precious daughter was gone. There were deep stab wounds on her neck, and the stench of blood was everywhere. It had been many years since he saw such a terrifying blood stain.

His eyes gleamed intensely, and his heart throbbed in discomfort. His daughter had fallen into someone’s trap. Lily was shrewd. She looked at Yechiel sharply. “Do you know something? Huh?” “I don’t know. But this morning, when the Xander family was having breakfast, Nancy told me she wanted to take my assistant with her to visit some pharmaceutical company. Oh, Caretech. Pharmaceutical Company…” Yechiel said. There was no doubt that this matter was related to Annalise, but someone like Annalise would not have the guts or capacity for murder. The murderer was most likely Julian. But he was determined to pin this crime on Annalise.

Now that Lee had acknowledged Annalise as his daughter, Lee was full of vigor once again. Yechiel believed that if he made Annalise pay with her life, her death would be a fatal blow to Lee. If Lee suffered another grave illness, he would lay in bed for another 20 years. Lee’s life would surely be over then. We will investigate this matter right away. Our condolences.” The police made the statement and left in a hurry. On the 18th floor of the unfinished building, only Jimmy, Lily, Yechiel, and Nancy’s corpse were left.

Jimmy sighed. He comforted Lily. “Lily, bad things happen to good people all the time. You have my condolences. Nancy has already passed. Let her rest in peace. It’s no use being angry and damaging your health.” Lily cried and yelled, “How should I let her rest in peace? Huh? I’ve raised Nancy for twenty-five years. For twenty-five years, we’ve been together day and night. Tell me. How do I keep living without her?” Jimmy sighed. He was speechless. Yechiel tried to console her. “The most important thing now is to find the murderer and bring them to justice. This matter must be related to Annalise.”

Lily gritted her teeth. “A woman from the countryside has inexplicably become the Xander family’s daughter. Did Nancy get in her way? Huh? She couldn’t even wait to harm Nancy. I’ll go and ask for an explanation now.” Yechiel raised his voice slightly. “Calm down. What evidence do you have to deinand that kind of explanation?” Lily sobbed. “Nancy, my little girl, open your eyes and look at Mommy!” Lily cried, and all her tears fell onto Nancy’s face. She regretted it so much.

Lily regretted not stopping her daughter from trying to steal Annalise’s husband. She did not expect Annalise to be so important in Julian’s heart. Julian would even kill someone for her. She would not possibly let her daughter die in vain. “Let me carry her.” Yechiel reached out to carry Nancy’s corpse.

Lily refused to let go. “I’ll hug her for a while. I’ll hug her just a little longer.” Jimmy started to panic. “No matter who they are, we won’t let them off.”

The Zeller family had also heard the news of Nancy’s murder. Old Madam Zeller let out a long sigh.

“Sigh…” Old Madam Zeller then instructed Jason, “Jason, go and look at the situation. Don’tet Jimmy mess up again. You have to investigate this matter.” “Okay,” Jason replied. In the past, Annalise had treated Old Madam Zeller. She felt a little better. With her current condition, she could stay lucid for a little longer each day. Her pain was not as bad as before, but she still could not get out of bed and walk around.

Jason had been too busy in the company recently. He wanted to handle the few projects he currently had. Since Annalise’s exchange symposium had come to an end, he wanted to go and invite Annalise over. If push came to shove, he would bring Old Madam Zeller to Annalise so Annalise could treat her for some time. Unexpectedly, before he could finish his work, something happened to Nancy. It was such a terrible thing, too. This was Jadeborough. Even someone from an ordinary family would find it difficult to kill someone, let alone an upper-class family like the Zeller family. Immediately, he arranged for someone to investigate Nancy’s death.

Lily cried for more than half an hour. She cried so much that she fainted. Yechiel was about to carry Lily when Jimmy scolded him. “She’s my wife. I’ll carry her myself.” Yechiel glared at Jimmy with bloodshot eyes. Jimmy picked up Lily and reminded Yechiel. “Carry Nancy.” Yechiel picked up Nancy’s body with a sullen expression. They came down from the eighteenth floor and left the unfinished building. That same day, the Xander family set up a funeral hall. Nancy’s body was placed in an ice casket.

Yesterday, Old Mr. Xander had just celebrated his birthday with a banquet. Today, there was a funeral at home. The atmosphere was suffocating. Lee vaguely heard someone say that Nancy’s death was related to Annalise. Instantly, his gaze sharpened. As long as he was alive, he would not let anyone slander Heather’s daughter…
