    Chapter 1026 Looking For Clues


    J turned her head toward the door as she heard someoneing in. She greeted, “Good morning,


    Sean. Do you want some breakfast? I have some sandwiches here.”


    She made all the food to give Brendon a choice of what he preferred for breakfast, but he didn’t eat


    much as he had no appetite, and so she now had a lot of leftovers.


    1 “Are they Mr. Larson’s leftovers? No thanks, I don’t want it,” Sean replied apologetically. Suddenly, he


    gave J a weird look and said in a strange tone, “Mrs. Larson, did Mr. Larson update you on the


    situation?”


    “No, my family said that the dash cam is currently being repaired in the Larson Group’s technology


    department. I just came to check in on the situation,” J exined. She felt that something was


    amiss from Sean’s tone and gave him a curious nce. “Did you quarrel with Brendon? Anyway, he


    didn’t even touch these sandwiches, so they are not really leftovers,” she added.


    Sean looked unhappy but he still politely replied, “I didn’t quarrel with Mr. Larson.”


    He was just a little sad that a half-year bonus was deducted from his sry.


    Just then, a colleague from the technology department appeared and greeted the two, “Hello, Mrs.


    Larson and Sean. This way, please.”


    Sean and J followed the colleague into the office, and they reviewed the footage captured by the


    repaired dash cam.


    From the footage, they confirmed that someone had indeed tampered with the brakes in Sean’s car.


    The culprit had a clear goal and acted really quickly. He was carrying a backpack filled with tools and


    was also very cautious as he wore a mask and ck hat to hide his identity. The only obvious feature


    in the footage was his eyes.


    “It seems that this guy had the intention to harm you, Mrs. Larson,” Sean said in a serious tone. His


    breath quickened, and his expression suddenly became stiff. He crossed his arms across his chest and


    thought aloud, “The only clue we have is this pair of eyes. But many people in Barnes have single


    eyelids. It’s going to be hard trying to locate him.”


    “You are right. Maybe, we can find out something from his clothes instead,” J said while deep in


    thought. After careful observation, she pointed at the screen and said, “Look at his hat. It looks new. He


    must have bought it recently. It looks like a famous brand too. Although this brand has many shops in


    Barnes, at least we have a lead now right?”

    Sean smiled and agreed, “It should be doable. The Larson Group can offer a high reward for useful


    leads. This way, we don’t need to act solely on our own. We can probably catch the culprit sooner with


    more people helping out.”


    J nodded and said, “This is the phone number of the


    person in charge of the investigation from the White family. If you need anything, you can contact him.


    I’m sure he can provide you with some clues too. You can also share information with each other.” She


    then copied the footage into her thumb drive and continued, “I’ll go back and watch it again carefully


    after work. I might have missed out on some details when we were watching it just now.”


    Sean agreed without hesitation, “Of course, everything here belongs to Mr. Larson. Please, take


    anything you need with you.”


    Before leaving, J patted Sean’s shoulder andforted him, “I’ll be going now. I’m sorry about


    your bonus being deducted.” She then held out the bag containing the sandwiches she made and


    asked, “Since your bonus is deducted, you should learn to be more economical. Are you sure you don’t


    want the sandwiches?”


    Sean patted his empty wallet in his pocket and sighed sadly, “Sure, I’ll take it. Thank you.”


    It was already noon when J returned to the W Marks Studio. She had already applied for leave


    from Draco, and now, she was packing up the documents she needed, before bringing them to the


    hospital to work.


    Just as J returned to the studio, Tasha and Elizabeth spotted her.


    They hurried over and asked in unison, “What happened? Why did you apply for leave?”


    J was surprised by the incredible sync between Tasha and Elizabeth.


    “I have something to deal with at home, so I applied for two days off,” she replied tiredly. Looking


    around carefully, she made sure that there was no one eavesdropping before whispering, “Brandon


    had a car ident. I need to look after him in the hospital these few days.”


    It then dawned on Elizabeth, “Oh, I see. No wonder you looked absent-minded when you came in.”


    After observing J for a while, Tasha asked sympathetically, “Elizabeth and I thought now that the


    dress you designed for Este was a great sess, you should be happy about it. But you looked so


    upset! Turns out it was Brandon. Do you need our help in any way?”


    J gently shook her head and replied confidently, “I am almost done in handling that matter. And


    now we’re going to focus on catching the murderer on the loose. I hope to catch him as soon as


    possible.”


    Tasha was shocked by J’s words. A few secondster, she finally snapped out of it and said in


    astonishment, “Didn’t you just attend a award ceremony with Este? Why is there a murderer?”
