Chapter 185

Chapter 185 You’ve Never Known Love

Three days later, at 7 pm inside a suburban detention center, Chandler finally saw Tessa, who was being held in custody.

Besides Chandler, Osborn was also in the interrogation room.

Tessa was confined in a trial cell behind iron bars, sitting on a metal chair with handcuffs and ankle shackles. She kept her head lowered. and her hair hung loose. She wore an orange prison uniform over her shirt.

On the second day of being held there. Tessa confessed to all the crimes she’d committed. She even revealed the location where the corpses of her assailants back then had been disposed of. However, those bodies were unlikely to be retrieved because they were all cut up and dumped in the mountains. Wild animals would have devoured those dismembered remains by then.

Her willingness to cooperate and confess astonished Osborn. She also confessed how she and Jack meticulously planned Erin’s kidnapping with the clear objective of obtaining her unborn child. However, Tessa deliberately didn’t disclose the location where Erin was

held captive.

her. But Tessa stated that even if she was tortured to death, she wouldn’t reveal where Erin was.

On the previous day, after yet another round of interrogation, Tessa suddenly requested to see Chandler, claiming she might disclose

Erin’s whereabouts.

Hence, Osborn immediately summoned Chandler to the detention center. In fact, even if Osborn hadn’t called him, he would have come on
