Chapter 1327

After catching her breath in the car, Corinne sat still and said nothing.

Sophia turned to look at her. “Corinne, why aren’t you saying anything? Aren’t you going to ask me

where we’re going?”

Corinne kept her eyes on the road ahead. “You told me we’re going to the crime scene to look for

clues, right?”

“Aren’t you scared, then?” asked Sophia curiously.

“You can stop the car and get out now if you’re scared,” said Corinne impassively. “Give the car and

address to me, and I’ll go there by myself!”

Sophia was a little taken aback. “I’m not scared. I’m hoping that Jeremy is still alive and that the dead

body doesn’t belong to him. And for this, I’m not scared of anything!”

“Then stop talking and step on it.”

Sophia was speechless. She glanced at Corinne’s huge belly and thought, ‘She seems like she isn’t

worried about the baby at all. So this is the length she’s willing to go to for Jeremy… Heh. Despite

saying otherwise, she still cares about him after all.’

Sophia had guessed that Corinne would escape while Lucas was out getting water for Corinne from the

pantry room. That was why Sophia tried to stall him by talking to him. That way, Corinne would have

more time to escape.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Knowing that Corinne was all over the place after she found out about Jeremy’s death, Sophia decided

there was no point in talking to her. Thus, the two women drove on in silence to the abandoned factory

where the explosion happened.

…

It was not difficult to imagine just how powerful the explosion must have been when Corinne and

Sophia saw the aftermath.

Corinne got out of the car and, with the moonlight, tried to look for some signs of life through the debris.

She tried to come up with all the possibilities of how Jeremy could still be alive, but seeing the

destruction before her, she knew there was no hope of that happening.

‘If Jeremy was near this area when the explosion happened, he couldn’t have survived the explosion,’

lamented Corinne.

“Are you sure Jeremy was here when the explosion happened? Even if his car and ID card were found

here, it doesn’t mean he came here,” said Corinne. There were so many details she still did know what

of.

“Corinne, you don’t know how much I wished Jeremy wasn’t here when the explosion happened either.

But the police had footage of Jeremy in his car when he came out to take a break at a rest stop.”

Corinne frowned. “Has the police found out who did this? I mean, why would Jeremy suddenly come to

this god-forsaken place in the first place?”

Even if it was as Lucas said, that Jeremy’s half-brothers wanted him dead, he—with his intelligence—

would never fall into such a simple trap.

Sophia shook her head. “No one knows why he came here. The only things the police found were

Jeremy’s ID card and a burnt phone on the dead body that was blown to pieces. They’re still looking for

the cause of the explosion. We can only come home at night since the place will be filled with police

officers in the morning.”

Corinne fell silent. ‘So that’s why he hasn’t been replying to my messages for the past two days…’ Her

heart ached so much that she started to find it hard to breathe.

‘No, Corinne. Now’s not the time to wallow in sorrow. I have to find out who did this as soon as possible

and to make them pay! I must avenge Jeremy for the sake of our baby!’

She took a deep breath and carefully walked through the explosion site with the help of her phone

flashlight to look for clues.
