Chapter 659

Passionately locked in a ki*s, the two were on the brink of intimacy when the ringing phone disrupted their moment.

Lindsey tried to grab her phone, but Domenic gently held onto her wrist.

He gazed into her eyes, pleading, “Can it wait a bit?”

She squinted and remarked, “It’s my brother calling.

Could be some news from the police station.

”

Upon hearing that, Domenic had no option but to sit up, separating from her.

He looked at her with a hint of disappointment and said, “Go ahead.

I’ll take a shower.

”

Lindsey pouted and reluctantly picked up the phone.

“Hey, Linds, I handed the evidence to the police last night.

They called me first thing today.

You won’t believe what happened.

”

“What is it?” Lindsey felt a knot in her stomach.

“Marisa’s son’s been located, and the police got Kendra’s prints off him.

And that piece of voice message was a confession.

Now the evidence is solid.

Kendra’s under arrest; she won’t slip away this time.

”

“Really?” Lindsey straightened up with excitement.

“They found the boy? Where did they find him? How is he now?”

Leonel sighed over the phone, his voice filled with righteous anger.

“He didn’t make it.

They found his body in a river, far away from Morcastle.

The police say he suffocated.

I never thought Kendra could be so heartless, not sparing a three-year-old.

”

Lindsey felt a heavy sadness.

“By the way, Linds, the police mentioned they need you to confirm the statement and asked when you’re free.

”

Lindsey felt a bit taken aback.

If the police wanted her, she should be there without delay.

Did they need to consider her schedule first?

Without overthinking, she quickly replied, “I’ll be there right now.

”

Lindsey got up and dressed swiftly.

As she walked out of the bedroom, she spotted Domenic emerging from the bathroom, towel-drying his damp hair.

He glanced at her from head to toe and asked, “Are you going out?”

Lindsey gave a nod.

“I need to go to the police station with my brother to confirm my statement.

”

“Wait, I’ll come with you.

”

Domenic retreated to his room and returned wearing a crisp white shirt paired with black suit pants.

His air of sophistication left Lindsey slightly taken aback.

“What’s on your mind? We should get going.

” A slight tap of her forehead caused the corners of his mouth to lift in response.
