Chapter 753

By the time Skylar learned of Sadie’s death, it was already evening. She and Joe were having dinner at a Taegu cuisine restaurant.

Skylar had assumed that Sadie would succumb to her illness in the hospital, but it turned out Peter had beaten her to death instead.

“They want you to go there again? I will send Paul to the hospital,” Joe said, his voice tinged with frustration at being interrupted during their dinner.

“It’s not Peter. The call’s from the police,” Skylar replied. She then relayed the details of the call to Joe. After that, she stood up and grabbed her bag. “You keep eating. I have to head to the police station to assist with their investigation.”

“I’m coming with you,” Joe said, standing up as well.

Vera watched from the restaurant entrance as they drove off, her bag clutched tightly in her hands.
