Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 142

After a whole day, Summer did not see Lynn in the company.

Summer asked a colleague who had a good relationship with her, "Didn't the chairman come to the company today?"

Her colleague looked around and mysteriously said, "I heard that the chairman has gone abroad."

Hearing this, Summer's expression darkened slightly. At this critical moment, why did Lynn suddenly go abroad?

Suddenly, she remembered what she had said to Lynn.

Could it be that Lynn was going abroad to invite Alexander back?

The words she had said to Lynn before could be considered decisive.

Although Lynn's business methods weren't good, when it came to interests, he could be clear-headed.

Summer thought of Leonardo's mother in a daze.

Back then, the kidnapping case was finally defined as malicious kidnapping for ransom, but in the end, because it angered the kidnappers, it caused the kidnappers to kill the hostage.

However, Leonardo's mother was not simply killed by them, but humiliated to death by those people.

If they only wanted money, and if the Emerson family really wanted to save Leonardo's mother, they would never let things get to that point.

Then there are two possibilities.

First, the purpose of those people was to kill Leonardo's mother from the very beginning.

Secondly, some people of the Emerson family didn't want to save Leonardo's mother because they wanted her to die!

Back then, the kidnapping case had caused a great sensation. The newspaper said that it took a few days to find Leonardo and his mother. However, if the kidnappers only wanted money, they should have contacted the Emerson family on their own initiative. No matter what, Leonardo and his mother shouldn't be found a few days later.

All the details and judgments could not withstand scrutiny at all.

Other people would definitely be able to think of the problems that she could think of, and Leonardo would be able to think of them even more.

Most of the time, people would forget things that had nothing to do with them. Even if they have doubts and puzzles, they would just think about it and then forgot. After all, it had nothing to do with them.

However, Leonardo was different. She was his biological mother. In front of him, she was insulted by a group of men...

All these years, he must have lived in hatred and self-blame.

That was why he had such a gloomy aura.

That was why he didn't show up in front of anyone.

That was why when she was kidnapped by those two men, Leonardo went to save her and made such a vicious move.

He had always wanted to force Alexander back to country. Could it be that Alexander had something to do with the kidnapping case back then?

"Bang!"

Summer was so shocked that the documents in her hand fell to the ground before she regained her senses.

She seemed to know what Leonardo wanted to do.

...

At noon, Summer called Leonardo and invited him to lunch.

Leonardo actually refused it for the first time.

Instead, Douglas sent her a WeChat message, "Summer, what are you eating for lunch?"

"I haven't had lunch yet. What about you?"

Douglas sent her an "obedient" expression, "What a coincidence, I don't eat either."

Summer laughed. Of course, she understood what this little brat meant.

"I'll go find a restaurant When you get there by car, we'll be able to eat. I'll send you the address later."

Not long after Summer finished ordering the dishes, Douglas came.

He smiled and sat down. He picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. Then, he frowned and said, "It's not as delicious as Summer's."

Summer glared at him, "Don't flatter me."

When they left the restaurant after dinner, Douglas’ phone suddenly rang.

He stopped and looked at the name on his phone. "Marco?"

"The boy you beat up yesterday?" Summer leaned over and took a look. She had some impression of this name.

Douglas nodded, "Yes, I just don't know why he suddenly called me!"

As soon as he got through, Marco's hysterical voice rang out on the other end of the phone, "Douglas! Did you find someone to kill my father?"

"Marco, are you crazy? I didn't hit your brain yesterday. Why did your brain break down?" When Douglas heard Marco's tone, his tone was not very good.

"I want you to pay for my father's life!" After Marco finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Summer also heard Marco's words, "He said that I killed his father?"

"Isn't this insane? What grudge do I have against his father and kill him?" Douglas obviously didn't care about this matter at all.

However, before they could go very far, two men walked towards them head-on.

The two men were tall and strong.

Based on her intuition, Summer felt that the two of them might be policemen.

She quietly stood in front of Douglas.

As expected, the two approached and took out their police certificates. "Hello, we are from the Criminal Police Brigade. We suspect that Douglas is involved in a criminal case. Please cooperate with the investigation."

Their gazes had always been tightly locked onto Douglas.

Hearing this, Summer turned to look at Douglas.

Douglas’ expression changed slightly. And his face was full of surprise.

Summer shook his hand and said, "He is a minor. He needs to be accompanied by a guardian, right?"

"Yes." said one of the policemen.

...

Summer accompanied Douglas to the police station.

On the way, she called Leonardo and told him about it.

When they arrived at the police station, Summer saw Tim and Carl at the entrance of the police station.

As soon as Carl saw them coming down, he lazily walked over and said, "Evan, it’s been a long time since we met last time. You are getting manlier."

Evan was the policeman earlier. Perhaps it was because he had been dealing with criminals for so many years. His face looked a little fierce and had a trace of killing intent.

When he saw Carl, he laughed, "Carl? What are you doing here?"

It turned out that Carl and Evan knew each other.

Carl stepped forward and put his hand on Evan's shoulders and pointed in Douglas’ direction with his chins raised. "That child is a distant relative of mine."

"Are you a distant relative of the Emerson family?" Evan sneered.

Sure enough, people couldn't lie to the police.

"You've investigated him thoroughly so quickly. Only you are so bold. Even though you know that he is from the Emerson family, you still dare to touch him."

Evan smiled, "Even if he is a heavenly prince, as long as he really commits a crime, I will still arrest him."

"Well." Carl gave Summer a relieved look before continuing to say to Evan, "Take me as the guardian of that child as well. I'll listen to it later."

"There's no such rule."

"Evan."

"Alright!"

...

In the interrogation room, Evan stared at Douglas with a serious expression.

"Marco is your classmate?"

"Yes."

"His father was killed at six o'clock this morning. He didn't have any enemies when he was alive, and you had a grudge with Marco. We suspect that you hire a murder to kill him."

Douglas thought of the phone call he had received earlier, "Marco's father?"
