Chapter 225 Benjamin the Murderer

Joseph answered, “Pretty much.”

Lucas found out that the month Karen gave birth to Ava was also the same month that Luciana got

pregnant. Benjamin stayed by Luciana’s side almost every day.

The hospital staff recalled that a different man would come to visit Karen from time to time, and they

would always argue with each other. Their topic of argument was quite sensitive, discussing the fact

that the man who had impregnated Karen was a married man. Hence, the hospital staff had a deep

impression of that incident.

“Wow…” Chloe drew in a cold breath. “Did you find out who that man was?”

“Not yet, but we may get the answer tomorrow.”

After learning about the affair, Chloe had a restless night. She was busy sorting out the current clues

she had obtained.

It was no wonder Karen chose to get back together with Benjamin that year. It was very likely that she

wanted to find a father for her child. And it must be because of Karen’s example that Ava was so

cunning since childhood

Chloe wondered if Benjamin would be driven mad when he learned about this.

The next day.

Lucas proved himself to be very efficient and quickly brought over the nanny who had attended to

Karen the year she had given birth.

言

Her name was Wren, now in her early fifties. The woman in plain clothes elaborated honestly, The man

who hooked up with Karen was named Diego Bailey. He seems to be from Docwood and has a family.

He got to know Karen during a party. That’s all I know… Can you give me the money now?”

Lucas looked toward Joseph before the latter waved his hand. After that, he took out a stack of cash to

give to Wren.

With trembling hands, Wren happily accepted the money. ‘Finally. I’ve secured the money for my son’s

surgery.’

Lucas opened the door and was about to see her off when Chloe, who had been silent all this while,

suddenly got up and stopped her. She asked in a fierce tone, “Didn’t you also work as a nanny for Mr.

Johnson’s family?”

When Chloe mentioned that name, Wren averted her gaze. “No, I didn’t.”

“Didn’t you?” Chloe laughed coldly and found an old family photograph on her phone. She pointed at a

blurry figure in the photograph. “Isn’t this you?”

When Chloe left the Johnson family, she took with her the only family photograph there was and took a

picture of it so she could look at it when she missed her mother. Although the nanny’s figure was not

very clear in the picture, her face could be seen. Hence, Chloe was certain that not

only had Wren worked as Karen’s nanny, but she also worked for Chloe’s mother too.

Chloe believed that this was not a coincidence.

Wren screamed and did not dare to look at the photograph as if it had exposed her wrongdoing. She

became scared and nervous.

Joseph narrowed his eyes before he took Chloe’s phone to make a comparison between the two. After

looking at it carefully, he affirmed that the figure in the corner of the photograph was not that much

different from Wren. He exposed deep oppression Although his voice was not harsh, it was full of great

momentum.

“You can either explain yourself here or at the police station. I’m sure you know the pros and cons.

“No, I can’t be locked up in prison. My son is still waiting for me at the hospital. I have to go back with

the money to save him. Please be kind and show mercy. Let me go. I’m begging you. Please don’t

make things difficult for me.”

However, Chloe would not compromise if it was related to her mother. She dialed 911 in front of Wren,

her face devoid of emotion.

Wren broke down and screamed, “Okay! I’ll tell you everything!”

It turned out that Wren had worked as a nanny for the Johnsons because Karen had recommended her

to Benjamin. Besides that, Karen ordered Wren to monitor all of Luciana’s actions, and if there was a

chance, Wren had to sow discord between Benjamin and Luciana However, Luciana fell seriously ill

before Wren got the chance.

Wren also witnessed how Benjamin purposely drove Luciana mad until she fell sick. After that, he

ignored her and went to Karen for a great time.

While crying, Wren slapped herself. “I was out of options. Benjamin threatened me and prohibited. me

from caring for your mother. I didn’t do it on purpose…

“I always dream of your mother. She hates me for not saving her and I’ve never had one night of good

sleep for the second half of my life. And now, my son has fallen ill. I’ve already paid a price. for what I

did. I’m so sorry… I wronged your mother.”

Chloe was struck dumb on the spot. An endless chill engulfed her heart as her body trembled

uncontrollably. She then burst into tears. “My mother was driven mad and killed by Benjamin?”

‘Mother didn’t hesitate to cut off her relationship with her family for the sake of her love, but at last, she

died in Benjamin’s hands In the past, I even dreamed of being spoiled by him. Of course, a murderer

wouldn’t feel anything for me. How ridiculous and pathetic!”

Heartache flashed through Joseph’s eyes as he pulled Chloe into his arms. “Benjamin will be punished

for what he did. Trust me.”
