True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 260 Isabella Went Crazy

After speaking, Theodore had someone draw a bit of blood from Cordelia. He needed to verify what Cordelia had said. He had already recorded the conversation earlier. With this evidence, it would be hard for Cordelia to escape the death penalty.

After leaving the prison, Theodore lit a cigarette and took a few deep drags. The nicotine traveled from his mouth to his lungs, and the intensity made him cough a few times.

Thinking about Joyce's situation made him heartbroken. He didn't know whether to tell her about this. He was not sure whether it would affect her relationship with Sebastian if she found out.

'Joyce has finally decided to marry Sebastian, only to discover that his mother was the one who killed her own mother?' Thinking of this, Theodore felt a pang of pain in his chest, but he composed himself and called Joyce.

As soon as the call connected, he heard Joyce's pleasant voice. "Theodore, why did you leave so early? Is something wrong?"

Hearing Joyce's voice, Theodore smiled. "There's some business I need to take care of. What are you up to?"

Joyce sounded excited, her voice filled with laughter. "Grandma has been spoiling me rotten! She gave me so many things. She said they were all prepared by Mom for me back in the day. There are jewelry, famous paintings, and several properties. Altogether, they're worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Theodore, I feel so regretful that I never got to see Mom. If she were still alive, how wonderful that would be."

Hearing Joyce's words, Theodore felt a sharp pain in his heart. He could tell that Joyce's impression of Connie was becoming more profound, but the more it did, the more afraid he became. He asked in a deep voice, "Joyce, if we find out who killed our mom, what do you plan to do?"

Hearing this, Joyce immediately put down what she was holding. "Did you find any clues?"
