Chapter 332 Inexplicable Affinity
Grayson looked at me as if he had entertained a similar suspicion. Then, he asked, “So, who fell off thecliff? There were witnesses and physical evidence. Even Mr. Atlas saw it with his own eyes!”
“How could this be?” I tightened my grip on the steering wheel.
It was more of a mutter to myself, but suddenly, a memory surged. It was something Atlas had said tome.
I recalled him telling me, “Annalise means nothing to anyone, especially not to me!”
In light of Grayson’s words, Atlas’s statement held a different meaning. It appeared that Atlas was
keeping something from me.
He had said he would reveal it once the clues connected. Coupled with Grayson’s revelations, I wasnow thoroughly convinced that the information they had found didn’t add up.
“What about Rory? Any leads on him?”
This man held a certain allure for me. After all, he was Stella’s father.
Plus, I sensed a certain distance in Stella’s attitude toward her parents. It wasn’t just indifference but akind of numbness. Every time she spoke of them, it was with an air of detachment. It left me somewhat
perplexed.
I couldn’t believe she was so apathetic towards her own parents, even if she had grown out of her
rebellious phase.
Moreover, from my time with her, I sensed she didn’t hold a particularly significant place in Celine’sheart.
I could tell that day outside the emergency room when Atlas was injured. She looked at Celine withfear,novelbin
trembling at a single sharp glance from her.
I believe she did not hold the same significance in Celine’s heart as Kenzie did,
Grayson responded, “Yes, Rory wasn’t difficult to investigate. We’ve managed to confirm most of thebasic information. I’ve got a detailed report, which I’ll give to you once I’m back. I just returned from the
neighboring city and didn’t have time to get it. Also, I looked into Rory’s wife.”
Grayson glanced at me. “His wife is quite the character. No one would have expected that Louis’s
assistant has a wife with such a hidden and illustrious background”
Oh Grayson’s words oddly made my heart beat a little faster. I asked, bewildered “Hidden and
Mustrious
“That’s right! Can you imagine that Rory’s wife comes from a family even more distinguished than thePierces?” Grayson continued to watch me as he spoke.
This was truly something I hadn’t anticipated.
“So, with such a prominent background, why did she marry Rory?” I pressed on.
“Well, there’s a story behind that! Love is always to blamer Grayson quipped, “I’ll tell you all about itwhen
I get back. At the latest, in three days! Ill definitely be back!!
I could only nod in agreement, pulling up to the airport terminal. Grayson pushed open the car door,
turning back to wave at me before entering the airport.
Sitting in the car, I pondered for quite some time on our conversation. Then I started to head back.
At that very moment, I received a call from Atticus. He informed me that ATL Empire was considering
replacing the current head of this branch. He advised me to be prepared.
This revelation left me utterly astonished. Unconsciously, my voice rose in disbelief. “You mean they’rethinking of replacing Nick?”
