Chapter 365 Re-Investigation

Contrary to Elliot’s expectations, even though Anastasia looked pale, she only held on to his arm for

support. At that moment, Elliot desperately wanted to hold her in his embrace.

However, she retreated instinctively, so he retracted his arm mid-air.

“I’ll send you home first and let my men handle the rest here,” said Elliot in a deep voice.

“Let Rey send me home! You should stay back and catch Riley instead.” After saying that, she closed the

door. Through the car window, she seemed cold and distant.

When he saw that, Elliot could feel his heart throb in pain. Why did he feel like she was miles away from

him though they hadn’t seen each other for merely a day?

What did Riley tell her?

After that, Elliot instructed Rey to send Anastasia back home while he stayed back to settle everything

here.

Never did Riley expect a simple kidnap case to cause him so much trouble. All of his subordinates had

collapsed, and he was being pressed to the ground like a losing warrior surrendering in front of his

nephew.

Elliot resembled a young king on the throne, looking down at the man below him in contempt.

“Let go of me, Elliot! I’m your uncle! I’m your senior!” Riley huffed, intending to use his relationship with

Elliot to escape.

“What did you tell Anastasia? Are you the culprit who killed her mother and kidnapped me back then?”

shouted Elliot.

In response, Riley snickered while saying, “Find the evidence and sue me if you’re capable of it! I won’t

admit a thing.”

Elliot’s eyes darkened at that. “In that case, be prepared to rot in prison!”

From the looks of it, Riley could be sentenced to a few years of jail for the kidnapping of Anastasia.

However, Riley did not panic as he was being detained in the car. Even if he went to prison, he didn’t

have to be scared since he had one more trump card.

His goddaughter, Aliona, would certainly give birth to her son. Sooner or later, the entire Presgrave

Group would fall under his hands.

While they were on the road, Anastasia tried to call Grace. Fortunately, the latter picked up the phone

and told Anastasia that she was found thrown into a ditch by the roadside and was sent to the hospital

for treatment. Thankfully, she was awake now.

“Thank goodness you’re alright, Anastasia.” Grace was so shocked that she nearly cried. She had also

called the police.

Anastasia was grateful for what she had done and told her that she would talk to her in detail once she

got back.

While sitting in the backseat, Anastasia’s mind was filled with Riley’s words. She felt conflicted. Was she

going to blame the Presgrave Family for her mother’s death back then?

Back then, Old Madam Presgrave had called the mayor and pressured the police. Because of that, the

police ordered her mother to save a life at the scene. Was her mother forced to save Elliot, or did she do

it willingly?

No matter what, her mother sacrificed her life in exchange for an opportunity for Elliot to live.

However, as her daughter, Anastasia developed feelings for him, and that made her even more

distressed.

Once Rey dropped her off at her house, he reminded, “Have a good rest, Miss Tillman.”

“Thank you, Rey.” After thanking him, Anastasia entered the house and shut the door.

Rey didn’t leave after that, for he had to protect Anastasia until Elliot came over.

At the police station, Riley was arrested for kidnapping, whereas Elliot’s bodyguard handed over all video

evidence so that he couldn’t escape the punishment.

At the same time, Elliot also applied for a re-investigation of his kidnapping case back then with Riley as

the primary suspect. He also called for another investigation into Amelia’s case, the policewoman who

had died in the same year. Thankfully, the police attached great importance to this matter.

After coming out of the police station, Elliot rushed to Anastasia’s housing area immediately. He called

Nigel, told him what happened today, and ordered him to protect Jared well.

On the other end of the line, Nigel was taken aback by the information. With that, he hurriedly sent

someone to the kindergarten to pick Jared up. He was going to let Jared stay by his side so that he could

take care of him for the next few days.

As she sat on the sofa, Anastasia could feel that the fear of being kidnapped had dissipated, but she felt

complicated emotions. She stood in Old Madam Presgrave’s shoes; if her only grandson had been

kidnapped back then, she would also be willing to do anything to save him no matter how crazy it was.
