Chapter 303 Sion’s Explanation
David showed him the latest news and videos, explaining, “The message I received is that you reported directly to the police with evidence, but strangely enough, when the police arrived at her house, Nevaeh had already disappeared without a trace. Therefore, the authorities are now conducting a city-wide search.”
The news directly broadcast the evidence from the video, where they could see Nevaeh taking away the criminal. Moreover, the police found the bodies of the criminals with the help of the videos. They were thrown into an artificial lake behind a villa and had been salvaged and confirmed on-site.
Sion watched the scene on the news, tightly clenching the towel in his hand. Never had he expected that Nevaeh would do such things. After all these years, he still hadn’t seen through her true face, and even let her play him around.
“Let’s go to the scene.”
Sion put down the towel. His face turned cold and stern. Soon, he quickly got changed and then left with David.
Meanwhile, Aurora had been by the lake. Standing behind the tape with the others, she was staring at the three bodies on the ground. She looked pale.
The bodies had been covered with white cloth, while the police and the forensic team were examining them.
Aurora felt nauseous while facing the death of three lives. Although they were the ones who harmed both her and her daughter but she couldn’t bear to see them like this.
Nevaeh was so ruthless that she dared to take matters into her own hands. After doing so many outrageous things, it was surprising to see her still putting on a poker face and acting in front of everyone. Even Sion had been deceived by her. Just as she thought of this, she saw a man hurrying towards her. Her face immediately turned cold.
“Aurora,”
At the sight of her, Sion quickened his pace. Aurora looked at him coldly, with no expression on her face, even a hint of resistance that was hard to detect.
“What are you here for?”
Her cold attitude successfully stopped the man’s words of comfort, and after a while, Sion said, “I just saw the news and rushed over immediately.”
He felt that Aurora’s attitude to him was a bit strange now.
Aurora snorted and said, “What? Are you here to confirm whether or not these people killed Nevaeh? The police are over there, why don’t you go ask them?”
She thought Sion came over here for that woman. It was ridiculous.
Sion frowned. “They tried to harm Morgan, and I came here to find out the truth.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“As for Nevaeh, I didn’t think she was involved.” He added.
Sion had a certain idea in his mind now. No matter who was behind the criminals, he would make sure the one paid the price.
“Is that so?” Aurora looked at him mockingly. “Or is it because your beloved is wanted by the police and you’re heartbroken so you came here to find out information?”
Sion’s eyebrows twitched slightly. Her tone was full of sarcasm which made no sense at all.
“Aurora…” He sounded a little helpless as he spoke. “I didn’t know Nevaeh did so many things behind my back until today when I saw her true face.”
Sion felt responsible for this situation too. He should have been more vigilant since Nevaeh pretended to be his saviour during the earthquake years ago; then maybe she wouldn’t have ended up like this today.
“So what? Weren’t you two deeply in love just a while ago?” Aurora didn’t believe anything this man said anymore; his lies were just too easy for him. She was unwilling to believe nor trust anything Sion said anymore.
“I’m sorry,” Sion apologized again with an unclear expression on his cold face. “I was not vigilant enough so I’d been left in the dark all the time”
“What are you apologizing for?” Aurora sneered. “This has nothing to do with me. What you should be worried about now is whether Nevaeh can escape the police pursuit.”
“…”
Sion broke down, for Aurora felt alternately hot and cold. It seemed like all his effort had been in vain. Sion wanted to explain a few more things, but suddenly caught sight of the police officers walking towards them from not far away.
“Miss Robertson, thank you for providing the evidence. We have just confirmed the identity of the deceased and it is indeed the suspects. The murderer should be arrested as soon as possible. If there is any further information, please notify us immediately.”
“Of course.”
Aurora smiled at them and couldn’t help but glance over to where the criminals were.
“How long had they been dead?”
The police glanced at Sion beside her and said, “According to the preliminary forensic examination, these three people had already died five days ago.”
That was the day she went to Highland Resort with Cameron. That meant Nevaeh took them out and killed them on that day.
At the thought of this, Aurora’s heart was filled with an inexplicable panic. Fortunately, they rescued Morgan in time. Otherwise, if Nevaeh had gotten her hands on Morgan, she couldn’t imagine what would have happened.
Sion looked at her thoughtful expression and asked the police, “Do you have any clues about the culprit now?”
The police smiled and said, “I’m sorry sir, the progress of the case involves confidential issues, so I cannot directly answer you. What we can disclose has already been released to the media.”
Aurora glanced at Sion and turned to the police officer with a smile on her face, “Sorry to bother you.”
“If the follow-up situation can be made public, I will notify you as soon as possible.”
Saying this, the police turned around and left.
Aurora then walked away, ignoring the man standing beside her.
Sion wanted to explain more so he followed her and said, “Aurora, I am only concerned about the progress of the case, not Nevaeh.”
It seemed like he’d said the wrong thing again.
