Chapter 2507
“It doesn’t matter.
I just wanted to know that you are safe.
”
Lucinda exhaled a deep sigh of relief, her eyes scanning the headlines about the Perez tragedy on her computer screen.
Nathan chuckled softly, trying to lighten the mood.
“I’m just investigating, not involved.
Why would I be in danger?”
Lucinda frowned as she read the online reports, feeling something was amiss.
“Darling, how’s the investigation going?”
“It’s not clear yet.
The bodies from the villa are counted and sent to the forensic laboratory for examination.
No murder weapons were left at the scene, and the assailants were extremely meticulous.
”
The more Lucinda listened, the more her worry intensified.
“Can I come and take a look?” she asked.
“No.
The scene hasn’t been cleaned to preserve all evidence.
The stench of blood is overwhelming.
It might make you uncomfortable.
Stay put, and I’ll come to Simmons Group to pick you up after I’m done.
” Nathan’s response was immediate and steely.
“Do you have any initial suspects?” Lucinda pressed.
There was a long silence on the other end of the line.
The ambient noise around Nathan gradually faded away, indicating he had moved to a quieter area.
When he finally spoke, his tone was grave.
“Judging by the scene, it’s either a seasoned criminal or someone with military training who knows all the tricks in the book.
”
Lucinda’s brows knitted in worry.
“Are you… Are you suspecting him?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Nathan’s silence was deafening before he finally replied, “Yes, a little.
He used to be the most elite operative in the Secret Investigation Department.
And I’ve been investigating the Perez family’s recent enemies.
Only Kyson has a motive.
He had a conflict with Phillis on a blind date last month, and after that, he took a series of actions to punish the Perez family.
”
“He wouldn’t!” Lucinda immediately responded, her voice firm.
“I believe in him.
”
Nathan fell silent again.
Eventually, he asked, “Do you trust him that much? Are you sure you know him well enough? If he were a law-abiding person, he wouldn’t have stolen those medicines from the lab and thrown them at me.
”
Lucinda was rendered speechless.
It was true.
Although she had known Kyson since childhood, there was a period when they were apart.
He had changed, becoming almost psychologically sick, like a lunatic.
He wanted to destroy everyone, sparing no one but her.
After a moment of heavy silence, Lucinda insisted, “He couldn’t have killed over a hundred people in such an inhumane manner.
Besides, even though he’s now the head of the Shaw family and CEO of the Shaw Group, he has no army.
He couldn’t have orchestrated such a large-scale massacre.
”
Nathan remained silent for another two minutes.
Finally, he said, “Alright, I understand.
I’ll thoroughly investigate and not wrongfully accuse anyone.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

After hanging up the phone, Nathan stood in the corner of the Perez family’s garden, his grip on his phone tightening.
His deep eyes darkened with a blend of doubt and fury.
