Chapter 1242
I took a deep breath and said, "This is not my husband!"
The policeman furrowed his brows and said, "Is there anything on him that belongs to yourhusband?"
I looked at the watch on the body that I was extremely familiar with. I endured the pain in my heartand said, "Even if there is, he is not my husband. My husband can't die just like that."
"Madam, we understand what you are feeling right now, but please cooperate with us so that wecan find out the truth as soon as possible. If he is not your husband, we will find your husband assoon as possible according to your statements. If he is, I hope that you, like us, can put him to restmost decently."
The policeman's words were like a knife stabbing over and over again into my heart. I looked atphotos and shook my head. "No, that is not my husband. Although the watch he is wearing is similarto my husband's, I'm sure that he is not my husband. Am I not familiar with my own husband?"
Those policemen looked at each other. One of them looked at me carefully and asked, "do youknow who this person is?" He pointed at the body.
I shook my head and answered honestly. "They intentionally used someone who was 70% to 80%similar to my husband to distract us. There must be a reason why they're doing this."
The policeman nodded. Things were not as simple as they seemed, and he didn't know what to donext for the time being. After recording my testimony, I left the police station with Sheridan and wentto meet Tobias.
When I noticed that Sheridan was not driving towards the Hayes Manor, I was stunned. I lookedsideways at Sheridan and said, "Mr. Lawson, are we not going to the Hayes Manor?"
He replied, "Mr. Hayes doesn't live in the Hayes Manor."
Then, he drove us to the suburbs near the coast. We finally stopped in front of a luxurious villa onthe shore. He stood at the gates of the villa and pressed the doorbell. After saying his name, thegates opened.
As the car drove into the villa, I was surprised at how luxurious the villa was. It was around athousand square meters with expensive European and American decorations. Every corner of thevilla was incomparably exquisite and fashionable.
Sheridan parked the car in the basement of the villa then said to me, "I'll wait for you outside. Yougo on in!"
I nodded, got out of the car, and entered the villa.
The door was already opened. In front of it stood a cleanly dressed, middle-aged woman. When shesaw me, she smiled softly and said, "Miss Reid, Mr. Hayes wants you to go to the living room on thesecond floor straightaway!"novelbin
I nodded and quickly made my way through the lobby on the first floor, then up to the second floor.The second floor was decorated in pure black. It gave off a certain sinister vibe.
There was no one in the hall, but I heard the sound of running water flowing from the bathroom.
I frowned. Was he taking a shower?
I found a place to sit down and waited quietly. I looked around the hall as I waited. Psychologistssaid that a person's inner world could often be represented by what they liked.
Everything in the hall was black. Did it mean that Tobias' heart was filled with darkness?
The bathroom door opened and Tobias walked out from the steaming bathroom with only a towelwrapped around his waist. From his unhurried movements, he seemed to have no intention ofcovering himself up further.
I looked at him indifferently, objectively admiring the beauty of a young man in his twenties.
He squinted at me. He didn't seem uncomfortable under my frank stare. Instead, he mocked, "Itremains unknown whether your man is still alive or dead, but you're still in the mood to admire aman."
