After finishing his water, Rhizone pondered deeply. In the end, he conceded, “All right, I’ll go with you.”

They retraced their steps from the previous night, taking the shortest path since there was no need to hide anymore. Before long, they found themselves back near the lake.

By then, the villagers had either gone home or were giving their statements next to the police car. Only the police and Carol’s group remained at the scene.

Lysander was immediately stopped by a stern–faced police officer the minute she got near the lake. “We’re conducting an investigation here, so bystanders should keep their distance for now.”

The warning tape was stretched out extensively, effectively blocking off nearly all the spots where one could enter the water.

Lysander’s anxiety surged: “I’m looking for someone.”

Right after she spoke, Carol, who was anxiously watching the police inspecting the lake on boats, turned toward Lysander. She quickly stepped forward to explain to the police. “She’s not a stranger. She’s our CEO, Mr. Guerra’s wife.”

Rhizone found the title somewhat familiar. However, his concern for Josiah at that moment took precedence, so he didn’t think further about it.

Lysander knew that only family members could stay at the scene at a time like that, so she avoided answering directly. “I’m here to find Josiah. We parted ways in this vicinity last night.”

Rhizone had already explained the detailed circumstances to the police once, so she didn’t need to repeat it.

Upon receiving a definite answer, the policeman’s expression relaxed a bit. “Perfect timing, Mrs. Guerra. We happen to need your assistance with identifying something.”

The word “identifying” involuntarily made Lysander clench her hands. It brought to mind something that sent chills down her spine.

Carol felt the same..

They walked to the side, following the police officer.

Fortunately, no stretchers covered with white cloth were there.

The police officer took an evidence bag from his colleague. Holding it in his hand, he asked, “Mrs. Guerra, do you recognize this ring? Is it something that belongs to your husband?”
