Chapter 138 I’ll Fulfill Your Wish for You

Meanwhile, Josephine sat at the dining table while propping her cheeks with both hands and trying her best to fight off the desire to sleep.

Suddenly, a loud notification ringtone chimed from her phone.

That shocked the sleep out of her. She quickly dug out her phone to check the screen. It was a text message from Avery.

“Josie, did something happen to the Alvarez family?”

Josephine frowned before texting Avery back while feeling confused. “What happened to

them?”

“Didn’t you read the news? Your sister-in-law got taken away by the authorities. I even received a notification regarding the news that has gone viral.”

The woman was surprised when she saw the text message. Before she could search for the latest news regarding the Alvarez family, Avery had already sent her a link to the news article

she had read.

Josephine tapped on the link, soon realizing that Avery was telling the truth.

“The Actual Killer Behind Lily Alvarez’s Demise Has Been Arrested” was the headline that

popped up before her eyes.

The article was uploaded half an hour ago. Despite the mosaic bars concealing the identities of the individuals in the picture, Josephine could still discern the distinctive backdrop of Alvarez

Manor.

There were many people in the picture. Nancy, Derek, and the others could be seen there, but Josephine was unable to spot Lewis.

Could it be that he was taken away by the authorities as well?

Josephine stood up all of a sudden. After a moment’s hesitation, she turned to look at the clock on the wall. It was already 12 am by then.

She gritted her teeth in determination and decided to book an e-hailing car on the e-hailing

app. 1

After that, she ran out of the mansion to wait for the car on the sidewalk. Soon, the e-hailing car arrived to pick her up.

Josephine opened the car door and got into the car right away. She gripped the corner of her shirt, anxiety already gnawing at her heart.

At the same time, the woman kept sending Lewis text messages, but she had yet to receive any replies from him.

Josephine located his phone number on her contact list after that. Before she could call him, a voice suddenly boomed from the driver’s seat.
