Evander’s expression remained calm. It seemed as if everything that happened was within his expectation. “Go on.”

Sitting on the couch, Angeline curled up into a ball—a posture with a great sense of security to suppress the resentment within her.

“Since Joseline could make a move against Grandpa, I believe my parents’ death was also related to her. I want to collect evidence and bring her to justice!”

Hearing that, Evander took a sip of coffee and reminded, “Since your parents’ autopsy reports are now in Joseline’s hands, I believe you have already asked Old Mr. Sorelle for the license plate number of the car involved in the accident back then, right?”

“Yeah. T-That’s right,” Angeline stuttered, staring at him with a look of surprise.

She couldn’t believe he was able to guess her approach correctly. “So, what do you suggest?”

“Even if you know the license plate number, it will only delay your investigation progress. Why don’t you visit the police station? Your parents’ case had caused a great stir back then. I believe they still keep what was left of the car until today.”

Angeline got anxious at his words. Since Joseline is the culprit, she would definitely be cautious and build a good rapport with the police. It’d be hard for me to enter the police station to investigate.

While she was at her wit’s end, Evander replied leisurely in the video call, “I’ll get Sylas to contact the police. The rest is up to you.”

Angeline was taken aback for a moment. Then, she stared at the man apologetically and said, “Mr. Golding, I can take care of it myself. I’ve already owed you too much.”

“So you’re aware?” Evander raised his brows and smiled cynically. “Anyway, there are already too many favors that you can never repay me, so I don’t mind doing you another one.”

He ended the video call promptly after that.

The look in Angeline’s eyes turned gloomy as she stared at his handsome face, which gradually faded to a black screen. At the same time, she felt a touch of warmth in her heart. The feeling of being protected by someone is so good.

Meanwhile, Joseline couldn’t sleep at the hospital. Gazing at the night sky outside the window, she paced back and forth in the deluxe ward restlessly.
