    Chapter 241 I Didn’t Care About Her Life or Death


    I paused for a moment, instinctively looking up at Walter.


    Walter slightly furrowed his brow, shaking his head at me, indicating that I didn’t need to tell the truth.

    I didn’t understand why Daniel would ask this at that moment. I replied, “No, I’m at the police station,


    helping the police to find Henry’s body.”


    Lying left me somewhat parched, I picked up the water cup and took a sip.


    On the other end of the phone, Daniel didn’t ask me anything more. He simply said, “On the cliff wall


    opposite the Heart Ind.”


    For a moment, I didn’t realize he was talking about Henry’s body. It was Walter who took the initiative,


    taking the phone from my hand. and pressing the end call button.


    Then he pulled me and said, “Let’s go.”


    I was still a bit dazed until I ran into Captain Lucas who wasing to meet me. Walter looked at him


    and said, “Henry’s body was thrown on the cliff opposite the Heart Ind. You need to arrange for


    someone to investigate the scene immediately and bring the body back.”


    Captain Lucas paused, nodded, and without saying anything more, directly led people to the Heart


    Ind.


    Daniel had left Henry on the Heart Ind!


    Captain Lucas left, and Walter was ready to go, pulling me along.


    Seeing that I was standing still, he looked back at me, frowning, “What’s wrong?”


    I looked at him, “I couldn’t leave the police station yet.”


    I was still a suspect then.


    Looking at me, a hint of helplessness appeared on Walter’s face. Het spoke, “It’s okay, I’ve notified the


    police station. You’re free to move around. Go.”


    After speaking, he didn’t wait for my response and directly took me out of the police station.


    After leaving the police station, he took me to a restaurant and ordered some food.


    Seeing that I was constantly out of sorts, he looked at me and said, “Don’t worry, as long as we find the


    body, the results wille out quickly.”


    I looked up at him and said, “Ashley killed the person.” I told him this to let him know that if my


    suspicion was cleared, Ashley would be the murderer. An eye for an eye, Ashley would die.


    Seeing me speak like this, Walter nodded, his gaze calm, “I know.”


    “Did you know you were still helping me?” What I wanted to ask him was, wasn’t he upset that Ashley


    had be a murderer? But I never did.


    Seeming to understand the implication in my words, he slightly -furrowed his brows, looking at me with


    a somewhat serious


    expression. “From the moment I knew she wasn’t you from the past, her life or death became irrelevant


    to me. You don’t need to test me on this,” he said.


    I pursed my lips, feeling somewhat uneasy, and said, “I wasn’t probing, just telling you the fact.”


    He raised an eyebrow, squinting his dark pupils at me, saying, “So, you care that I care about her?”


    “No!” The word almost slipped out of my mouth.


    He hooked his lips, didn’t speak, only the faint smile at the corner of his mouth could barely reveal his


    mood, which seemed not bad.


    There was no need to continue this topic. I lowered my head to eat, but after such a long fuss, I had


    long lost my appetite. Besides, I had something on my mind, so I couldn’t eat much before I couldn’t


    eat


    anymore.


    Walter naturally noticed my condition and frowned, saying, “Don’t waste food.”


    I pursed my lips, lifted my gaze and nced at him, saying, “You ordered it yourself, you eat it.”


    I originally wanted to snap at him out of annoyance, but somehow, when the words came out, they


    unexpectedly sounded a bit… childish!


    Seeing him smile at me, I nodded and said, “Hmm, I’ll eat, you should eat some too.”


    This sentence was filled with… indulgence.


    His sudden action left me feeling indescribably awkward. Since when did we be so close?


    Although my face was cold, somehow, my heart didn’t reject it… I attributed all of this to my character


    of being more receptive to gentleness than to force.

    After finishing my meal, my mind was constantly waiting for a message from Captain Lucas.


    Sure enough, half an hourter, Walter’s phone rang. It was a call from Captain Lucas. After answering


    the call, Walter put it on speaker. The voice of Captain Lucas came from the other end, somewhat


    heavy, “Mr. Hinton, the body has been found.”


    I had intended to rx, but even through the phone, I could sense the heaviness in Captain Lucas’s


    voice, which instantly put me back on edge.


    Perhaps sensing my apprehension, Walter asked over the phone, “How’s it going?”


    Captain Lucas took a deep breath and said, “Although we found. Henry’s body, the situation is not


    good. His body has been severely damaged by poisonous snakes and insects, leaving almost nothing


    left. The coroner said it might be impossible to determine the exact time of Henry’s death. Besides,


    there are several skeletons next to his body, which seem to have been there for some years.”


    “Hmm!” After hearing the words from the other side, Walter responded, his face calm, showing no


    particr emotion.


    Seeing this, I slightly furrowed my brows and said to him, “If there’s no way to determine the exact time


    of death, does that mean there’s no way to…”pletely rule out my suspicion.
