Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 728

Chapter 728

When Colton heard Nicole's query, his eyes curved and he revealed a friendly smile. "I'm here for free food. Remember to prepare my portion too."

As such, Nicole put more ingredients in the pot.

One more person only means an extra bowl, and I don't really care.

It was only after she prepared the chowder did Nicole return to the couch with two cups of warm water. She handed one over to Colton.

Then, she took a sip to moisten her throat before speaking slowly, "You didn't come this early to investigate your grandmother's death, did you?"

Nicole's words hit the spot. Meanwhile, Colton used his slender fingers, which were like a work of art in itself, to hold the glass and slowly press it against his thin lips.

Nodding, he commented, "Yes. I don't know what came over me but I couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd come over early."

When Colton said this, he raised his eyebrows, his expression revealing a hint of happiness.

"I didn't expect you to wake up so early like me. Maybe this is what we call having a heart-to-heart."

Nicole was speechless when she heard that

This man will try to push my buttons if I let my guard down!

Looking at Nicole's thunderous expression, Colton put on a straight face and didn't tease Nicole anymore. Then, he said slowly, "I asked someone to run through the events of that year again. This is the information."

He then took out a stack of papers, seemingly from nowhere.

Nicole glanced down.

This information looks rearranged. The vital remark has been bolded to make it look clear. So that's why there are dark circles under his eyes; Colton must have been tinkering with the information all night.

Nicole had no idea why, but she was suddenly moved. Then, she took a closer look and found that it was some witnesses' words and the scene's description.

She flipped through the pages and found that most of them didn't know much, only that they had seen a car flying by, so they couldn't get a good look at the driver.

Colton looked at Nicole's serious expression and explained, "My grandma just returned from a trip abroad. It was almost midnight. She was waiting for someone here, and there was a zebra crossing. At the top was the security camera, but only one captured the whole incident. The other camera only captured the car."

Nicole listened to Colton's explanation while reading the documents. Confused, she asked, "I have a question. Generally speaking, the car must be stained with a little blood in a hit and run, which means that the other cameras could have captured the suspicious car. What about the license plate number?"
