Chapter 162: Attempted murder.
"I'm already on it," Bradshaw replied. "I think we need to get a couple unmarked units stationed around the hospital and some plainclothes officers inside keeping an eye on things around the clock. No way we can risk losing this guy as a witness if he really was attacked." "Agreed. I'll put some calls in to coordinate the undercover teams right away," Jackson said crisply. "While you're stuck on bedside manner duty for now, maybe I can do some digging into the wife's financials-policies, assets, that kind of thing. If there's a money motive behind this, we need to know about it.
"Good call," Bradshaw agreed. "This just screams premeditated in my gut. That level of panic she showed? It's like she knows exactly how much hot water she'll be in if Jones wakes up and rats her out!
"Then let's make sure we have all our bases covered to protect him and catch her in the act if she tries anything else," Jackson stated firmly. "I'm not letting another one of these transgressions get buried or swept aside for lack of due diligence."
Bradshaw could hear the passion and resolve in his partner's voice. Jackson had been a homicide detective for over a decade, and he'd seen too many instances of injustice and double standards when it came to crimes of domestic violence or spousal abuse, especially when wealth or status was involved. t made him zealous about defending the vulnerable at all costs. For some reason, he thought that Martin was the vulnerable one here.
"You know I'm right there with you, partner," Bradshaw assured him. "Jones's as good as secured under our watch from here on out until we get to the bottom of what really happened, His wife isn't going to get another opportunity to jeopardize his safety." "Good man. I'll check back in as soon as I have those undercover details locked down on our end."
The conversation finished, and Bradshaw released a tense breath while watching the entrance to Martin Jones's room. Both he and his partner were dedicated to revealing the full extent of Gina Jones's lies. They suspected that she had prioritized her own selfish desires over her husband's well-being. It was too suspicious to be ignored.
They just had a feeling this woman was hiding something and their gut was something they
acted on.
Gina hurriedly walked back and forth across Martin's hospital room, her footsteps echoing on the linoleum floor. Her hands were intertwined in front of her, with her knuckles displaying a white color due to her tight grip. Every now and then, she would quickly look towards her motionless husband, who was unconscious in the bed, with a panicked expression.
