Chapter 438


    At noon the next day, Ste suddenly got a phone call, which was from the police station. The


    policeman said that Arthur went to Ste’s studio before he died and also contacted her several times,


    so they wanted to ask her about some information to see if they could find any clue.


    After hanging up the phone, Ste stood up, picked up her purse, and walked out of the office.


    Seeing her, Sherry asked, “Ste, where are you going?”


    Ste answered, “Just now, the police station called me. They said Arthur Bat came to our studio


    before and had some conflicts with me, so they asked me to cooperate with their investigation.”


    Sherry frowned, “Why did they call you? You are a victim!”


    Ste smiled faintly, “It’s alright. Just a written record. I’ll be back soon.”


    “Okay. If you need any help, call me.”


    “Sure.”


    After Ste arrived at the police station, a policeman asked her about her identity. Then he asked about


    her rtionship with Arthur. Finally, he asked when she had met Arthur for thest time.


    Ste answered honestly.


    After the record was done, the policeman nodded, “Thank you for your cooperation, Ms. Radomil.”


    “You are wee.” Ste paused and asked, “May I know... how the investigation is going now?”


    When the policeman wanted to answer, Ste saw Modesty show up at the police station.


    She cast Ste a nce and walked over. She said, “I’m Modesty Parker. I came here for the record.”


    The policeman said to Ste, “Okay, that’s all for today. If there’s any investigation result, we’ll inform


    you in the future.”


    “Okay. Thanks a lot, Sir.”


    The policeman looked over at Modesty, “Please follow me.”


    Modesty hummed, following him to leave as calm as usual.


    Looking at her receding figure, Ste slightly pressed her lips, lost in thought.


    After walking out of the police station, Ste didn’t leave immediately. Instead, she waited outside.


    Modesty didn’te out until an hourter.


    Different from Ste, Modesty had a conflict with Arthur which was known by the public. Also, Arthur


    imed that Modesty had hired someone to attack him before, which caused him to lie in the hospital


    for several days.


    Hence, the death of Arthur made Modesty a key suspect.


    However, just like what Ste had guessed - it could be only an adult man who could kill Arthur and


    dump his dead body. Not to mention to kill Arthur, Modesty could never win against him under any


    circumstance.


    When the policeman questioned Modesty about the event that she hired someone to attack Arthur, she


    still answered in the same way as before. She denied that it had anything to do with her. Instead, she


    said it was Arthur who kept harassing her. He ndered her after he had failed.


    Besides, there was no evidence to support Arthur’s im, and the police also found out that Arthur had


    immoral behaviors ording to their investigation, which matched what Modesty had said. After the


    inquiry, they set her free.


    When Modesty walked out of the police station, she saw Ste standing not far away.


    Clenching her fists tightly, Modesty didn’t look as calm as she entered the police station earlier.


    She asked ironically, “Are you happy now?”


    Ste asked slowly, “What should I be happy about?”


    “Arthur Bat died, and I became the key suspect. Your revenge has been taken for the incident of


    the design contest.”


    Steughed in silence, “What are you talking about? You sound as if I’ve killed him and med it on


    you. Besides, if you didn’t kill him, why are you so worried?”


    When Modesty heard her words, her expression slightly changed. She returned calmly, “I was just


    saying.”


    Ste looked at her. Suddenly, she asked, “Have you met Adolph Miller recently?”


    Modesty immediately became alert, “Why are you asking about him?”


    “Nothing. I happened to want to find him. Just asking.”


    “I don’t know anything. Don’t ask me. Arthur’s death has nothing to do with me.”


    Ste said in a cold tone, “If you’ve met him, just say yes. If not, just say no. What do you mean by


    answering so vaguely?”


    Modesty squeezed words between her teeth, “I’ve told you I have nothing to do with him. Don’t ask me


    anymore!”


    After finishing her words, she bypassed Ste, wanting to leave.


    Ste stood there motionlessly for a few seconds. She turned around, gazed at her receding figure,


    and asked in a low voice, “You have something to do with Arthur Bat’s death, don’t you?”


    Moreover, Ste was certain that Modesty wanted to push the me to Adolph.


    Last time, when Ste mentioned Adolph to Modesty, thetter looked annoyed,ining that


    Adolph hadn’t taught Arthur a lesson.


    However, today, Modesty looked alert.


    The police would sooner orter found out the rtionship between Modesty and Adolph. If Modesty


    looked the same and answered their questions in the same way, Ste wondered what the police would


    think. Would they believe that she truly didn’t know Adolph or she was covering him?


    Modesty slightly stiffed. Looking back at Ste, she gritted her teeth, “Ste, even if you hate me, you


    don’t need to push such a big me on me.”


    Ste said, “Do you want to tell me that although you didn’t do anything in person, Arthur deserved it,


    and the man who has killed him had enforced justice on behalf of Heaven? If this man was a wanted


    man by the police, it would be wonderful, wouldn’t it?”


    “Since you said so, I must ask what you meant by saying so. Yes, I know Adolph Miller. We grew up


    together, but I was abroad for three years, so I didn’t know what he had done, which had nothing to do


    with me. Since I got to know he wasn’t a good man, I never contacted him again. But you always


    mentioned him to him again and again. You even made excuses for him. I’m afraid it’s you who have


    killed Arthur Bat and tries to push the me on me.”


    While she spoke, Modesty dared not to look into Ste’s eyes. She kept looking away.


    Seeing that, Ste smiled, “Your words make sense, but I must remind you about the reason why he is


    wanted. Do you really think you will get rid of it after pushing all the mes on him?”


    Modesty said in a cold tone, “I don’t know what you are talking about. I’ll admit whatever I’ve done, but


    for the things I’ve never done, you can’t me me for them.”


    Ste didn’t want to continue talking to her. After taking a few steps, she suddenly recalled something


    and turned around to look at Modesty, “Do you know your father has passed away?”


    Modesty probably had never expected to hear this news from her. Her expression changed


    dramatically, “Ste Radomil, how can you be so vicious? Firstly you pushed the me for the murder


    on me. Now you are cursing me. You...”


    Ste added, “He had died for at least a month. I’m telling you the news, but you me me for cursing


    you. Modesty Parker, what a filial daughter you are!”


    After finishing her words, Ste didn’t stop at all. She bent over, sat in the car, and left.


    Modesty watched her car roar away. Her lips parted and she wanted to speak something but failed to


    utter a sound.


    She was still shocked about the news that her father had died.

    She denied believing it.


    She believed that Ste, the vicious woman, must be lying.


    Modesty pulled out her cell phone and wanted to dial the number of her parents’ house, but she


    stopped.


    She just thought that it was good if her father truly had passed away. At least, there would be no one


    holding her back and making her be disdained by others in this world.
