    Nathaniel nodded respectfully toward Elliot, who was seated behind the desk, then turned and left the office.


    Once he was gone, Lionel immediately leaned in.


    “Elliot, should we investigate this further? Or should we bury this suicide note and let Romello’s trial proceed smoothly


    toward a death sentence?”


    Elliot nced at the letter on his desk, noticing the faint, unsteady handwriting.


    “Don’t involve any personal grudges. We''ll handle this matter ordingly,” he stated. “Inform the Department of Justice about


    the new developments and postpone Romello’s trial for today.”


    He continued with clear instructions, “Send this letter to a professional handwriting expert for analysis. As for Nathaniel’s


    revtion about Vanda’s depression, have Logan’s team thoroughly investigate it again.”


    Lionel obediently took the letter and replied, “Understood.”


    In theb, Phoebe had been receiving continuous IVs.


    After a few days of observation, it was confirmed that her nerves were fine.


    Apart from some memory loss spanning nearly four years, her physical condition was nearly back to normal.


    After leaving the National Investigation Bureau, Nathaniel learned that Phoebe could leave theb and


    hurried to see her.


    Despite being half—siblings, he felt indebted to her.


    Since he was no longer the director of the Special Investigation Department, he could not enter theb


    and could only wait outside.


    Five minutester, Howard and Phoebe emerged from theb together. They walked side by side, yet


    there was a gap of about a foot between them.


    Although Phoebe knew Howard was her boyfriend, she did not recognize him, and she could not bring herself to hold hands or


    hug him in such a short time.


    Nathaniel approached them and offered some words of constion. “You''re looking good. It seems


    you''ve recovered quite well.”


    Howard concealed his sadness and asked Nathaniel earnestly, “Can we have a private conversation?”


    Nathaniel gave it a thought and agreed.


    Then, he pointed at the luxury car parked in the open-air parking lot, saying, “Phoebe, why don’t you wait in the car fora


    moment? We''ll join you shortly.”

    Phoebe’s gaze was innocent and clear.


    She nodded and slowly made her way to the open-air parking lot.


    Once she was gone, Howard spoke in a subdued tone for the first time.


    “Nathaniel, can | take Phoebe back to my ce to stay? | know we''re not engaged yet, and it’s not proper,


    but |...! want to take care of her

    Naturally, this responsibility fell on Nathaniel’s shoulders. Hence, he had the authority to make decisions.


    “Sure, | understand that your rtionship with her has been difficulttely, and you want to take care of her yourself,” Nathaniel


    replied. “Besides, taking her to your ce might help her remember some things.”


    Howard was grateful. “Thank you.”


    Nathaniel smiled warmly, which was a rare sight. “It’s no problem. However, she’s still a daughter of the Nicholls family and


    shouldn’t stay with you permanently unless you live together as an engaged couple, which would be reasonable and eptable.


    Unfortunately, I’m not in charge of the Nicholls family, so |


    can’t decide on Phoebe’s marriage.
