Chapter 518 It’s All Fate

After leaving the police station, Grace went to the Hub Apartment to visit Evelyn’s parents the next day.

The two elderly people, especially Ben, had visibly become much thinner amidst their daily worries and anxieties. Ben used to be full of vitality, with everyone praising his radiant appearance, but now he appeared significantly older. He was wearing a slightly faded shirt with no trace of vitality on his face. As for Lucy, the white hair on the top of her head had grown a lot, and her eyes appeared somewhat swollen from frequent crying.

Grace brought a lot of supplements from home, understanding that they might not have time to take care of themselves, but she still couldn’t rest assured. “Mr. Shelton, Mrs. Shelton, you don’t have to worry. I went to see Evelyn yesterday, and she’s fine. Although she’s at the police station, everyone takes good care of her because of Huston’s influence. Her meals are prepared separately. Her condition is not much different from usual.”

Because she couldn’t bear, to tell the truth in front of the two elderly people who were over fifty, she lied.

Hearing her words, Lucy’s eyes widened. She tightly held her hand, exerting force without realizing it. “What did you say? You went to see Evelyn?”

Grace freed up a hand to pat the back of her hand and comforted her. “Yes, Mrs. Shelton. I went to see Evelyn.”

“How is she doing now? Is she physically all right? Did she mention anything about the lawsuit to you? How much longer does she have to stay in there?” Lucy said anxiously and incoherently. “I believe Evelyn would never commit such a crime as murder. Since she was little, her father and I taught her well. She’s not that kind of child…”

“I know, Mrs. Shelton. Don’t worry. The trial hasn’t taken place yet, and everything is still unknown. The media will release all kinds of true or false news just to attract attention.”
