Chapter 449

Chapter 449

“Back then, the investigation went nowhere and was deemed a cold case and set aside for years.If we could have solved it, don’t you think we would have.”

Franklin sighed exasperatedly.He had wanted to get to the bottom of it and give the victims some closure.

“There are times when Edgar sees a wider picture than we do” Joseph frowned.

He walked out before stopping and turning around.

“Sir, can I continue to investigate this off the books?”

By the time Jean got home, dinner had been prepared.

“I Know you don’t feel like it, but you have to eat something” Susan said with concern.She pushed a bowl of soup to Jean.

“It’ll be good for you”

The smell of the seafood chowder made Jean’s stomach turn.She dashed for the toilet.She emerged a few minutes after.She met Susan’s gaze and held it for a few seconds.

“Miss, are you…?””

Susan hesitated before asking.

“Susan, please don’t tell him.”

Jean pleaded.

“Nothing will change between us just because of this.I don’t want anything to interfere with my decision”

Susan sighed and nodded.

“Okay”

“Let me make sure I really am before I do anything else”

Jean went back to her room.She burrowed herself into the blankets and slowly placed her hands on her stomach.

An old memory came to mind.

Back then, the doctor had told her that she would have problems conceiving.She might never be able to be a mother.

Were the heavens giving her a chance to be a mother now? She took a deep long, stuttering breath.
