Chapter 115

Leo’s father card irked me, he tended to use it everywhere only to justify his actions. Firstly, I asked him to calm down and then questioned Bright seriously.

“The wristwatch is the only thing that Jane remembers about that kidnapper, Bright. Are

you aware of it?”

Leo rolled his eyes at me.

“Why are you asking obvious questions, Laura? He is always present at the scene, never missing any development.”

Ignoring his commentary, I glanced at Bright, he spoke remorsefully.

“Yes, Laura!

About half a month ago, she gave her statement in front of me at the hospital. They drew a sketch of that watch according to her explanation.”

Without any further delay, he gave the reason for his mistake.

“Actually, I was too tired after the match last night. And there were back–to–back meetings in the morning.

So, when I got ready for the office, it didn’t cross my mind that my wristwatch is somewhat similar to the kidnapper’s one.

Otherwise, I would have never worn it.”

As Leo was dropped out of the tournament due to his surgery, Bright was playing for my company. His workload was definitely insane because of Jane’s abduction.

He was juggling between an official and ice hockey career, so I gave him the benefit of

doubt and let it slide.

“I can feel your exhaustion, Bright. There are no words to express my heartfelt gratitude for whatever you have done for me and my company.
