Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk by Melissa Johns

Chapter 377

After Ray swung by the hospital in Oak Lake to see his son, he decided to have a little get-together at his place that night with two police chiefs and the lead detective working on Ben's poisoning case.

In the cozy Fisher family living room, the three men greeted Ray with a unified, respectful "Mr. Ray." Despite Ray's high-ranking position, he never put on airs. With a slight nod, he motioned for them to take a seat, "Please, make yourselves comfortable."

The room was spacious and inviting, featuring a long mahogany coffee table set with an elegant porcelain tea set. Ray sat facing the trio, with Joshua settled to his right.

Instead of sitting right away, the men turned to Joshua, greeting him individually, "Evening, Joshua." Once Joshua courteously acknowledged them, they took their seats opposite Ray, giving quick introductions before diving into the latest updates on the case.

Ray had wasted no time catching up on Ben's situation as soon as he got back to Oak Lake. The cops had already dug up a few leads.

Richard, the lead detective, was a no-nonsense guy in his forties. He spoke seriously, "Rose pointed the finger at Lillian as the main suspect. She told us that back when Lillian was still the Fisher family's adopted daughter, she used to whip up health broths for Mr. Fisher every few days. Mr. Fisher had a routine of starting his day with a cup of iced coffee like clockwork, so we focused our investigation on these habits and found some interesting leads."
