Chapter 382 It’s Not That Simple

    Captain Smith sat on the sofa beside and stared at Xenia sharply. He read every slight change on her face.


    However, Captain Smith found that Xenia was very cunning, because she evaded the crucial points when she answered questions from Soames. Although her answers were clearly fake, they were so reasonable.


    He thought that this case was very troublesome.


    “Ms. Xenia, thest question. You must answer honestly. If we find out that you are hiding the truth, we have the right to arrest you for your disturbing the police.”


    Soames’ gaze was sharp as he looked at Xenia, and he warned with a gentle tone.


    Xenia smiled, “Officer Soames, what you said is really funny. You asked so many questions and I answered you seriously, didn’t I?”


    Soames chuckled softly, “Ms. Xenia, no matter if it was true or false, I have the ability to distinguish it. All you need to do is answering this question truthfully.”


    Xenia nodded, “Alright, go ahead.”


    Soames looked down at the case record in his hand. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Xenia. “Ms. Xenia, do you know Gand Cheek?”


    Xenia thought that he was going to ask questions rted to the case, so she was astonished when she hear Gand’s name.


    Soames repeated, “Ms. Xenia, do you know Gand Cheek?”


    Xenia regained her senses and shook her head without thinking. She denied, “I don’t know any Gand.”


    “You don’t know him? Are you sure?” Soames asked.


    Xenia was anxious, “No, I don’t know him. Don’t ask me again and again.”


    Seeing that her emotions were finally fluctuating, Soames turned around and exchanged a knowing look with Captain Smith. And then he closed the case record in his hand and stood up. He said politely to Xenia, “Thank you for your time today, Ms. Xenia.”


    Now that the interrogation was over, Xenia gradually rxed. She quietly watched Soames walk over to Captain Smith and hand him the notebook.


    Captain Smith took it and flipped through it for a while. Then, he closed it and held it in his hand. He walked towards Xenia.


    Xenia looked at Captain Smith with caution.


    Captain Smith stopped in front of her with an expressionless face. “Ms. Xenia, the case of Mr. Tang and your forging documents is still under trial. You only applied for bail pending trial because of illness, but your punishment is not exonerated. I just want to tell you seriously that it is notte for you to confess your crime. Otherwise, when we find out the facts arepletely different from what you said, then your crime will be aggravated and the punishment will be harder.”


    Xenia was not an idiot and she understood that well. But she still wanted to take a chance, and she didn’t want Rosiley to be pleased. So she said firmly, “Don’t worry, Captain Smith, every word I said is true. I’m not afraid of your investigation.”


    It seemed that Xenia would never give up until there was no way out. Since that was the case, Captain Smith didn’t have to speak to the wind.


    Therefore, Captain Smith put on a faint smile and he said indifferently, “I hope you can remember what you said today.”


    Captain Smith left with his men. Rorey hurriedly walked into the ward and asked anxiously, “Mom, how is it? Did they make things difficult for you?”


    Xenia was exhausted and shey on into the sofa.


    Rorey quickly walked to Xenia’s side and asked anxiously, “Mom, are you OK?”


    “I’m fine.” Xenia nodded weakly. She grabbed Rorey’s hand and asked, “Rorey, what did your father say? Will he help me?”


    Rorey bit her lips and looked at Xenia’s face full of hopefulness. She had to nod and said, “Dad said he would help you.”


    Xenia heaved a sigh of relief. “Oh, great. As long as your father is willing to help me, I don’t need to worry now.”


    Rorey wanted to tell Xenia that Gand didn’t want to help her. Instead, he wanted Xenia to take on all the usations to protect his only daughter.


    How could she tell her mother such a thing?


    She didn’t want to disappoint her mother, so she would find a way to solve the problem herself. Apart from protecting her mother, the most important thing was to displease Rosiley.


    …


    Captain Smith told Rosiley everything. Rosiley remained silent for a long time before asking, “Captain Smith, who is Gand?”N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    “He is Xenia’s ex-husband, Rorey’s biological father.”


    “Biological father?” Rosiley raised her eyebrows in surprise, “Rorey Gu and Gand Cheek, they don’t share the same surnamed. How could they be rted?”


    “ording to our investigation, after Xenia and Gand parted ways, Xenia discovered that she was pregnant. So she randomly married someone, whose surname was Gu, and then divorced him soon. Afterwards, she met your father.”


    Rosiley shook her head and eximed in disapproval, “I am surprised that Xenia lived a wonderful life when she was young.”


    Captain Smithughed and said, “Ms. Rosiley, your focus may be off.”


    “Sorry.” Rosiley rubbed her nose embarrassedly. She put on a serious face and asked, “Why did you ask her if she recognized Gand?”


    Captain Smith pondered for a moment. “I just wanted to test her. It is pointless.”


    This waspletely beyond Rosiley’s expectations. She couldn’t help butugh, “You guys spent a long time to ask some pointless questions.”


    Captain Smith was embarrassed. He pursed his lower lip and exined, “It is not pointless. At the very least, we know that she was lying.”


    Rosileyughed with a little frustration, “I’ve told you all the details. We can see at a nce if she is lying. Why bother?”


    Captain Smith raised his eyebrows and asked half-jokingly, “If I told you that things weren’t that simple, would you believe me?”


    “I’ll believe you if you say so.” Rosiley looked at him and raised her chin to signal him to go ahead.


    “Actually, before you asked me to investigate this case, our team received a phone call. The other party told us a lot about Xenia, and atst he said that his name was Gand Cheek.”


    Rosiley was astonished. She didn’t expect that.


    “So… this is the real reason why you asked Xenia?” Rosiley had the feeling that he was making up a story and she didn’t dare to believe what he said.


    Captain Smith nodded, “Yes.”


    Rosileyughed hollowly and said, “Captain Smith, if you don’t exin it to me, I have to doubt your team’s ability of handing a case.”


    Captain Smith smiled, “Ms. Rosiley, don’t worry. Our team is still very capable.”


    “Whether you’re capable or not will depend on how the case is handled this time.” Rosiley felt that she was right to ask Captain Smith to investigate this case.


    She believed that with Captain Smith’s help, Xenia would soon be brought to justice.
