When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 425
Gina persisted in her quest to uncover the origin and ownership of the key.
Harry felt a gnawing unease. If Neil caught wind of his involvement in Emily’s demise, it would spell endless trouble for him!
Harry gritted his teeth. Since Gina entered his life, he hadn’t had a single day of peace.
He had to devise a plan to prevent any discoveries. Harry was plagued by unprecedented anxiety over his past misdeeds.
After Gina securely stowed away the items again, Neil regained his composure. “Gina, I need your help with drafting a letter.”
Understanding Neil’s request, Gina nodded. “Of course.”
ways with every glance.”
Neil recited a verse, “Like those birds in the grove, finding solace in each other’s song. Like those fish in the brook, parting ways
Upon finishing the letter, Neil glanced at it approvingly. “Excellent work, Gina. Emily held your creations in high regard. That’s why I’d like to present her with this piece you’ve personally crafted. I trust you don’t mind?”
“Not at all,” Gina replied earnestly, shaking her head.
Neil managed a faint smile. “If Emily were still with us, knowing that her favorite artist, Ms. Gena, is about to become her daughter-in-law, sho’d be overjoyed…”
Neil took a deep breath, steadying his emotions and regaining his composure. His earlier excitement had unsettled him, causing some discomfort in his heart.
Feeling better now, Nell addressed Gina, “I’m feeling a bit weary. I’ll head off for some rest. You don’t have to accompany me anymore.”

“Alright, Neil. Rest well. Take care of yourself and try to balance your emotions,” Gina advised instinctively, speaking from her medical background.
“Alright,” Neil nodded, then instructed Isaac to escort him to his room.
Gina then prepared to depart. Harry’s gaze, shaded with suspicion, remained locked on her, never wavering from her form. Gina glanced his way before he finally withdrew his unfriendly stare..
Without paying Harry more attention, Gina departed from the Jackson family and headed straight to the Jackson Group. She navigated smoothly to Gabriel’s office.
“You mean, this key belonged to Emily?” Gabriel exclaimed, surprise and excitement evident in his voice. He once thought that no souvenirs were left of Emily due to Neil’s carelessness
“That’s right. Now, we need to investigate what this key is for. Gabriel, do you have any memories related to this key?” Gina inquired.
Gabriel shook his head in response.
Gina pondered another possibility. “Did Mrs. Emily entrust anything to you for safekeeping before she passed away? Or perhaps she may have entrusted something to someone outside the Jackson family.”
If it hadn’t been entrusted to any member of the Jackson family, including Mrs. Emily’s son and husband, it must have been entrusted to someone else.
This speculation offered Gina a new avenue of investigation.
Gabriel followed Gina’s line of thought. “Before Emily’s passing… Besides family, she only saw the medical staff”
Gina nodded in understanding. “Let’s track down the caregivers who tended to Mrs. Emily back then or any friends.”

Chapter 425
After a day and night of searching and reaching out, they finally connected with all the medical staff who had cared for or interacted with Mrs. Emily. After discussions, a female doctor revealed that Mrs. Emily had entrusted a box to her. Gabriel and Gina then visited the doctor’s residence.
The female doctor, now retired, saw Gabriel produce a golden key and retrieved the box.
The key indeed unlocked the box, revealing a valuable horn comb inside.
Gabriel immediately recognized the familiar comb. “This was Emily’s favorite during her lifetime.”
Even in the later stages, when Emily lost her hair due to chemotherapy, she would still use this comb, even with a wig, until she was too weak to do so. When Gabriel was sorting through Emily’s belongings, he didn’t come across this comb and thought it had been accidentally lost. At that time, deeply immersed in grief, he didn’t pay much attention to it.
Gabriel looked at the comb in the box and instinctively reached for it, but the female doctor immediately stopped him and closed the box. “Mr. Jackson, don’t touch it. When Mrs. Emily entrusted this comb to me before she passed away, she explicitly said that I must never touch it, even though I don’t know what’s wrong with it. But Mrs. Emily insisted that no one should touch it lightly”
“Mrs. Emily also mentioned that if the person holding the key wasn’t one of her kin, husband, or son, she advised me against handing over the box to them.”
It seemed evident that there was a significant issue with this comb.
Gina closed the box and took it with her.
“Thank you for keeping it safe.” Gabriel didn’t hesitate to produce a bank card as a token of gratitude. “Here’s 200 thousand dollars.”
