Accidental love II novel Chapter 31

Before Janice left, she turned her head and glanced at Marcus. She saw that he frowned more tightly and his face was more gloomy than usual.

After she returned to the room, she recalled the incident and felt that the murder case was full of doubts.

Who was the man she met that night?

She clearly saw him appearing by the swimming pool with blood on his hands. Why didn't the surveillance video capture that person?

There were only two explanations. Either someone tampered with the surveillance video, or Ada really committed suicide.

If the truth was the former, it would be impossible. Because Marcus was blind, he couldn’t do those things.

Moreover, even if he really wanted to kill Ada, he would not be so stupid to leave his fingerprints on the knife.

The murderer chose the fruit knife at home and deliberately erased his traces. Was it just to frame Marcus?

However, what Grandpa said just now made sense. Marcus was already regarded as the abandoned son of the Clinton family. Who would deliberately target a disabled person?

If Ada wanted to commit suicide, this method would be too strange. She could choose to commit suicide in her room. Why bother to walk to the pool?

The women's unique instinct told Janice that the hypothesis of Ada's suicide was not right.

What embarrassed her was that although she had some clues, she didn't have any evidence in her hand.

Last time she impulsively accused Marcus of being the murderer, which caused them to have a fight. If she only relied on her speculation to go to the police, she would get involved and would provoke the real murderer.

After thinking about it, she decided to bury the doubt deep in her heart, and waited until she found tangible evidence.

Because of the murder at home, Shawn was very worried about their safety, so he let Janice ask the company for a long vacation.

Neither she nor Marcus went out for the next two days.

Most of the time, Marcus would stay in the study and read braille books, and occasionally chatted with Shawn. So she could only talk with Marcus before going to bed.

She went around almost every part of this house. The Clinton family was indeed just like what Marcus said. Only the aunt could accompany her to talk. Others rarely showed up. It was really difficult to find a few people who could talk with her.

This afternoon, Janice was lying on the bed, feeling bored. She was staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Suddenly, she remembered that she hadn't seen her grandma since she married into the Clinton family. She didn't know how her grandma was doing now.

She immediately turned over and got out of bed. Then she walked straight to the door of the study and knocked on the door twice. After she got her permission, she walked up to Marcus.

"What’s up?"

His low voice was still calm. His firm facial features looked extremely deep under the dazzling light.

"I want to go to the orphanage. I haven't seen my grandmother for a long time. However, I'm afraid that Grandpa will disagree, so I want to discuss with you first."

Her voice was soft and slow, which was like a feather falling on the bottom of Marcus' heart. He smiled.

"I'll go with you." Marcus announced domineeringly, and then explained to her, "We are already married, but I haven't met your grandmother yet. Don't worry. Grandpa will not object to such an important matter as visiting the elders."

"Ah! That's great." Janice almost jumped up with joy.

She was so bored in the past few days and was looking forward to going out. She wanted to visit Grandma by the way!

Marcus raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, and asked tentatively, "Janice, I look like this. Will your grandma be disappointed when she sees me?"

"You’re so handsome. Grandma will definitely like you!"

"Really?" Marcus squinted his eyes, "In your eyes, am I a handsome guy?"

"Yeah!"

Janice blurted out. She answered extremely readily, not knowing that she had fallen into Marcus' trap.

"Well, ... so you like me too?" He asked back.

Janice immediately realized that she had been molested by him...

She snorted and didn’t answer. Meanwhile, she rolled her eyes at the person in the wheelchair.

Although Marcus was disabled, he was so shrewd!

In the orphanage.

After receiving Janice's call, Grandma stayed in the yard waiting for them. Her hair was combed very tidily. There was no mess. The silvery white hair was clearly visible in her black hair. In the sunken eye sockets, a pair of dark brown eyes were muddy and dim, as if it was shrouded in a layer of mist.

"Grandma, here I am!"

Janice yelled sweetly, with a bright smile on her face. She naturally leaned down and squatted on the edge of her grandma's wheelchair, and kissed her on the face.

"Janice, you haven't come to me for so many days. I miss you so much!"

Grandma gently pulled her hands over and rubbed the back of her hands gently. The calloused hand brought a slight tingling sensation, but Janice didn't mind it at all.

"I'm just married. There are a lot of things to deal with at home. By the way, I brought my husband here today. I want you to see him."
