Chapter 1093:
Leylaâs eyes narrowed in thought. She was aware that Marisa had been working on this case, and after so many years, she had almost given up hope of finding the culprit. But nowâ¦
âLetâs take this conversation inside,â Leyla said, pulling Marisaâs arm with one hand and Eileenâs with the other as she led them into the room.
Gabriela was left standing behind. Bryan scooped her up, playfully tapping her nose as he suggested, âWhy donât you go play with Raymond for a bit?â
Bryanâs eyes followed Eileenâs retreating figure, and as she turned around, their eyes locked. After a few seconds of silent exchange, Eileen averted her gaze and continued to walk inside. Raymond quickly stepped in, grabbed the toy, and distracted Gabriela, leading her outside to play in the yard.
By the time Bryan entered the villa, Eileen and the others had already settled into their seats.
Bryan approached Eileen and perched himself on the armrest of the sofa.
Even though he remained silent, the moment he appeared, Marisa couldnât help but notice his presence. Bryan had a commanding aura that was impossible to overlook.
âMarisa, what have you discovered?â Leyla asked, gripping her cane tightly.
Marisa shifted her gaze and frowned. âKamila was seen at the location where Eileen went missing, which is why Iâve been investigating her for years. Though Kamila seemed to have been careful to cover her tracks, we discovered that she had a boyfriend back then. They split up because her family disapproved, and it turns out that the man had a criminal record for abduction and trafficking of children.â
Stay tuned galnovð¢ðµð¼.coð Since the man was Kamilaâs ex-boyfriend and their relationship had ended long before Kamila married Keith, Marisa and her team hadnât initially dug into him. However, the investigation hit a dead end. Marisa decided to delve into Kamilaâs past and connections, which eventually led her to this individual.
âThat man has approached Kamila over the years, each time receiving a substantial sum of money from her. Shortly after Eileen went missing, the man got a large sum of money,â Marisa explained, her implication clear.
Kamila had been involved in Eileenâs abduction and trafficking, and the man had been extorting money from her ever since.
âThis is a significant discovery. Please keep investigating,â Leyla said, her expression growing serious. Uncovering the truth had been Dottieâs wish when she had still been alive.
After all these years, with Eileen finally found, Leyla had felt she could no longer carry out her original plans. She had even considered giving up. She hadnât anticipated that Marisa would uncover such a crucial lead now.
Marisa reassured her. âDonât worry; Iâll uncover the truth.â She then turned to Eileen with concern in her eyes and asked, âI heard youâve been involved in a murder case?â
âThe member of the Aston family was murdered by another member of the family, who claimed Eileen had given him the order,â Leyla scoffed. âWe were headed to Onaland this morning. How would we have had the time to do that?â
Although it was tragic that Jaliyah died so young, Eileen didnât feel much sympathy for her. Instead, she felt a bit scared and anxious.
Jaliyah had been killed in an attempt to hurt her. Who would go to such lengths just to target her?
