Chapter 1653

"Amy." Patrick hung up the phone and put down the design blueprint at the same time. He then looked at Amelia and continued, "Did you hear that? They found Yancie's body."

"Who called?" Amelia's attention then fell to his phone.

"Owen."

Amelia replied, "At last." Reckoned the time, they had tried to track down Yancie's whereabouts for half a month at this point.

Patrick nodded. "It's great that they've finally found Yancie. It turns out that she hasn't been anywhere and has always been in Northville. Her corpse was found in a river."

Amelia pondered for a moment before she said, "A clear-minded, normal person doesn't fall into the river unless it's an accident, isn't that right?"

Then, Amelia continued, "If she was in the river, how did Owen find her?"

Patrick explained, "To be exact, Owen did not find the body. A fisherman found a suitcase in his fishing net when he was fishing in the river. Out of curiosity, he opened it, which he then found the corpse. He immediately reported to the police after that. After forensic identification, they found that it was Yancie Cabeza."

Amelia gasped in horror as she heard this, "Oh my god! Are you saying that Yancie was stuffed in a suitcase and thrown into the river?"

"Yes. There are many serious injuries to Yancie's body. Furthermore, the body was swollen and rotten. And the truth surfaced under the autopsy from the forensic experts. Yancie's cause of death was a homicide," Patrick stated.

"Is Kaleb the murderer?" Amelia asked in a trembling voice.

At the thought that such a horrifying person had been lingering around her, Amelia could not help but put her hand to her belly. She then thought, "Fortunately, I gave up the acting director's position. Otherwise, Kaleb might have taken mine and the baby's lives as well."

Patrick sensed Amelia's fear, so he reached out to hold her shoulders and

comforted her, "I also think that he's the murderer. But we have to wait for Owen's investigation to come to a conclusion. If it's really him, you don't have to be afraid because it means his time is ticking."

He was right.

Amelia's stiffened shoulders relaxed. She looked at Patrick and said, "Mr. Hopper, I'm going downstairs for a glass of juice. Do you want one too? Or do you prefer coffee?"

"I'll have coffee. Sorry to trouble you." After Patrick pecked her forehead, he let go of Amelia so that she could get up and leave the study.

He knew that she was heading out to get some fresh air to change her mood, so he did not stop her.
