Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love novel Chapter 73

After a few seconds, Selena looked away and looked at Jasper Holland.

“Jasper, Miss Lane is recently related to a disappearance case. I have to make a statement with Miss Lane. You can carry on with whatever you’re doing.

Jasper didn’t continue to pester, he just gave Georgia Lane some meaningful look, and then walked towards inside.

Georgia felt a little embarrassed. The feeling of being treated as a murderer had made her difficult to tell and had nowhere to say.

Finally, Georgia took Travis Armstrong and followed Selena and Camden to a quiet restaurant, and after both sides sat down, Selena spoke to Georgia.

"I haven't eaten all day, I'm starving. Miss Lane, how about we order something to eat first? And that Mr. Armstrong who is sitting next to you, he must be hungry too."

Georgia looked at Selena’s before and after the attitude didn’t seem to change, her panicked heart settled down a little.

"You're right, Travis must be hungry. Let me order for him. Ms Holland, Mr. Camden, today I've brought you some trouble. Thank you for helping me today."

After Georgia finished her words, Camden shook his head which indicated that was okay, and Selena laughed.

"It was that Eden Lane who bullied you, I'm just helping you today. Let’s order first, I'm hungry too."

After Georgia ordered the Vinegar Pepper Shredded Potatoes and Sichuan Pickles Boiled Fish that Travis liked, and Camden and Selena ordered the dishes they wanted to eat.

After passing the menu to the waiter, Selena ask Georgia curiously.

“Miss Lane, this matter might sound a bit presumptuous to ask, is Eden Lane really your brother? Also, is Robert Simpson the husband of your elder sister or younger sister?"

Listen to what Selena said, she should be confused about the relationship of the Lane family. Georgia responded, and then slowly explained.

"Robert's fiancée's name is Emma Lane. Emma and Eden are siblings who share the same parents. I'm their elder sister, but I don't have the same mother as them. My mother is deceased."

After Georgia finished explaining, Selena nodded.

"I felt that you and Eden look nothing like brother and sister, it turns out to be both of you do not share the same mother, no wonder ..."

Selena had an easy going temperament, and didn’t seem to have any strange emotions towards her because of the car accident that she just knew.

Georgia gradually stopped being nervous.

Travis pulled Georgia’s hand.

“Gigi… My foot pain… Pain…”

Georgia then realized that Travis hadn't recovered from his foot injury.

Travis had only just had surgery to remove the bullet and was supposed to remain in the hospital.

It was because she fainted in this morning and didn't go back to the hospital. That's why Travis ran outside to look for her and ended up coming to the Lane house and then being bullied by Eden.

The food had been ordered, and the two police officers had helped her all day again today. Georgia didn't know how to tell them that she wished to send Travis back to hospital.

She wanted to get Travis back to the hospital right away, so the doctor could take a look at Travis' foot to see if there were any problems.

While she was still hesitating, Camden seemed to hear what they were saying. He turned his head to Selena and said a few words in a low voice.

Immediately, Selena smiled apologetically at Georgia.

"Miss Lane, I'm really sorry. I forgot about Mr. Armstrong's foot injury. The dishes of this restaurant are served quickly. Wait until the dishes are served, we immediately pack up and leave. Camden and I will send you and Mr. Armstrong to the hospital, let the doctor look at the situation of Mr. Armstrong's foot. If everything is okay, we'll make the statement again."

Georgia was very grateful to them. After about 10 minutes, all the dishes were served.

After ordering the waiter to pack up, Georgia took Travis to the two officers' car and then together they headed to the hospital.

After spending about half an hour at the hospital, the doctor rewrapped Travis' foot and gave Georgia and Travis a serious warning.

"No more discharge without permission from the hospital. Otherwise, this foot will not get healed!"

After getting Travis into the ward, Georgia coaxed at Travis.

"Travis, I'm not leaving. I have something to say outside with the two officers now. Remember, even if you can't find me in the future, you have to stay where you are and wait for me, and I will definitely come back for you. You believe in Gigi, right?"

Travis was a little dumbfounded, he pursed his lips and seemed a little sad.

Georgia was also having a hard time in her heart, and she persuaded him again.

"Travis, don't you believe Gigi? If Gigi says won't leave you, then really won't leave you."

After saying this sentence, Travis seemed to compromise.

“Then I believe Gigi… Gigi don’t… leave me, Travis wants to be with Gigi forever…”

Georgia nodded before she walked out of the ward. Then, she followed the officers to a café which was near the hospital and sat down.

After she sat down, Georgia spoke to the two officers, Selena and Camden.

“Ms Holland, Mr. Camden, should I talk about my experience first, or should you ask, and I answer?”

Camden answered her.

“Miss Lane, please briefly tell us about your experience before and after you disappeared, and then we’ll ask questions based on your experiences.”

Georgia nodded and began to tell a brief story about her disappearance from Friday night.

"That night, I went to work at the club, and when I got into the dressing room, suddenly my mouth was covered by someone and I fainted. When I woke up, I was locked up in an abandoned warehouse … Later came in a familiar man, this man named Chester Rogers. He admitted that he was the one who kidnapped me, and also said that he did it under Emma Lane and Owen Lane’s instructions ..."

Georgia also said everything about what had happened after that and how she escaped from there. Selena came out with a serious face.

"Miss Lane, if what you say is true, then we must arrest Chester. You also said that the gunshot wound on Mr. Armstrong’s foot was caused by Chester. So, we must now go to that place on the mountain and then find Chester in order to know the truth behind it."

Georgia nodded. Suddenly, Selena gave Georgia a serious look.

"Miss Lane, you should immediately contact our police on yesterday after you escaped. Now it’s already been a day and a night. You said at that time several people were beaten to the ground, and Chester was also in such a condition. I now doubt that we can find Chester.”

Georgia instantly understood the meaning inside Selena's words. Chester said he was instructed by Owen and Emma.

However, Georgia was not sure if Chester was still in the abandoned warehouse which was on the mountain.

She escaped, Robert knew it, maybe Emma and Owen also knew it. They must have immediately prepared to get themselves out of the trouble.

All the breakthrough points were on Chester. Otherwise, Georgia’s testimony was not corroborated.

After rushing back to town yesterday afternoon, Georgia was busy getting Travis to agree on the surgery. And after that, the arrival of Robert and Vanessa Cooke had completely disrupted her mind which made her forget to call the police to state the situation.

She then fainted again in the midnight and had really missed the best time to call the police.

"Ms Holland, it was my ill-considered. As for where that mountain is, I can only describe to you specifically the route I came back ..."

Georgia once again briefly described the route that she used to escape back. Selena and Camden frowned, both of them searched for a long time on the phone, and finally determined the location.

"Miss Lane, if you don't mind, I think you'd better come with us to that warehouse. Maybe, we still have a chance to find Chester."

“Now?”

Georgia asked. The time was already passed six o’clock in the afternoon.

Selena and Camden nodded their heads together.

“The sooner the better. We will ask other police officers to corporate with us, ask them to help us to investigate the satellite images. You’re the one who went to that place. Mr. Armstrong needs to be hospitalized now, only you can go there with us.

Georgia took a deep breath and then agreed.

“I’ll go there with you. I also hope this matter comes out results quickly.”

Georgia hoped it would be best to arrest Chester and have him to reveal the person behind it.

If it's the Lane family or some other enemy, it would be the best reward to be able to ambush your own enemy.

Georgia called Vanessa and said that she needed to go to the warehouse with police officers. She also told Travis that she was going out and asked him to wait for her return.

Lastly, Georgia also asked Vanessa to take care of Travis.

After arranging all these, Georgia followed Selena and Camden in a car to that mountain.

Selena and Camden also contacted other police officers of the police departments. After a few turns in the mountain, Georgia with Ms Holland and Mr. Camden took more than three hours to reach that abandoned warehouse.

By that time, it was already passed ten o’clock in the evening.

However, what Georgia didn’t expect was that the beggars who were beaten by Travis and went unconscious on the ground had disappeared, left only Chester lying on there.

Chester was dead, leaving behind only a cold corpse.

Georgia still remembered that Travis punched Chester many times. She also hit him several times with a wooden stick.

However, neither of them had hurt Chester’s head.

But now, the blood outflowed from Chester’s head had coagulated on the ground.

Georgia suddenly got scared, something must have happened behind this. Selena and Camden contacted their colleagues. And later the alarm sounded, the forensic pathologist and other officers came one after another to check the crime scene.

The situation now was completely different from when Georgia left, and she always felt that something bad would happen.

After working until midnight, Georgia followed the police car back to the city again.

On the way back, the more Georgia thought about it, the more she convinced there’s something fishy about it.

Chester was dead, then there must be someone else came to the abandoned warehouse after that.

Is it Emma and Owen’s people? They killed Chester. What exactly did they want to do?

Georgia was anxious. Selena let her go back home to rest first.

After Georgia returned to her apartment, her face shaded with melancholy. It was already seven o’clock in the morning, she couldn’t rest as she had already taken a day off. So, she decided to go to work today.

What Georgia didn’t know was that the Simpson family and the Lane family had already caused a stir.
