Chapter 786: Chapter 782: Confirming if She’s Dead or Not
He had greeted Mr. Jarvis first, and then, nodded to Richelle Dunn and Nathan Caroule as a greeting.
“Mr. Jarvis, is there any problem? I’m sorry to trouble you with this,” he asked.
Before, the police chief of Lordon and Jayden Dunn were very close friends.
However, in the past three or four months, there had been a big reshuffle in the leadership of Lordon. Not only Mr. Jarvis but also the heads of other departments were not familiar with the Dunns.
Mr. Jarvis smiled at him, “No problem. Ms. Dunn says this place is also her home, and she wants to come back and have a look, but she’s afraid you’d mind, so she asked me to mediate.”
As he said this, he looked towards Richelle.
“I just think you guys don’t have any big conflicts, and she just wants to come back and take a look. It’s not a big deal, right, Mr. Dunn?”
Harris Dunn could only nod his head.
Richelle Dunn had lost both her parents when she was young, and everyone in Lordon knew that she had grown up in Jayden Dunn’s house.
So, her saying this place was her home was not a mistake.
However, if Richelle hadn’t come with Mr. Jarvis, he certainly wouldn’t let her in.
“Yeah, my sister is overthinking it, this is her home, and she is always welcome here. I’m sorry, Mr. Jarvis, to bother you with such a trivial matter even though you’re busy.”
As he finished, he turned to face Richelle Dunn.
Richelle smiled at him, “Thank you, brother. From now on, I will come whenever I want.”
Harris Dunn smiled and nodded, “Of course, this is always your home. You don’t need to give any notice to come here.”
Then he addressed Mr. Jarvis.
“Mr. Jarvis, I’m sorry for my sister’s immaturity; now that our misunderstanding is resolved, we shouldn’t trouble you further. Please go ahead with your work.”
Although Nathan Caroule and the bodyguards from the Lewis family, including Richelle, were not easy to deal with.
But the most difficult one to handle was undoubtedly Mr. Jarvis.
No matter how powerful Nathan Caroule and the guards were, his family had guards who could counter them, but Mr. Jarvis was different.
“I just happen to be quite free today, so I’ll accompany Ms. Dunn for a tour. After all, her identity is special, and as for the ’cause of her death’ in the past, we are still investigating. It’s a good chance for Ms. Dunn to come here and learn more about it.”
Mr. Jarvis’s words revealed information that shocked Harris Dunn.
So, just now in this empty room, they were actually discussing Richelle Dunn’s “death”?
During this period, he had tried to inquire several times, but it was said that the police station had not specifically assigned anyone to investigate this case.
He thought that without evidence, it would become an unsolved case that no one mentioned again.
But this Mr. Jarvis is still investigating?
Could it be that Roy Lewis specifically assigned Mr. Jarvis to investigate?
Harris Dunn’s heart was in turmoil, but on the surface, he had to keep calm.
“So, what progress has been made?”
In order to show his innocence, he asked casually.
Mr. Jarvis seemed quite sincere in his reply.
“There has been some progress, but as Ms. Dunn suffers from memory loss, her information is fragmented, making it difficult to piece together her past.”
Harris Dunn was secretly surprised about Richelle’s memory loss.
No wonder there had been no news for months.
If she never remembers, then can everything about her “death” be wiped away?
Harris Dunn was secretly calculating his chances when he heard Mr. Jarvis say,
“So, Mr. Dunn, from now on, Ms. Dunn and I may bother you quite often.”
Panic flashed in Harris Dunn’s eyes, but he quickly concealed it and pretended not to have heard clearly.
“Mr. Jarvis, I didn’t quite catch that.”
Mr. Jarvis then patiently explained.
“Ms. Dunn said that when she returns here, she can recall some things. So, until she manages to piece together her memories, I’ll accompany her here.”
Harris Dunn wanted to curse, but the person in front of him was not someone he could mess with.
Seeing that he was silent, Mr. Jarvis asked,
“Or do you need me to bring a formal document?”
This was an outright threat.
By formal document, he meant something like a search warrant.
For a moment, Harris Dunn was caught between a rock and a hard place.
Should he say no?
Undoubtedly, it would give Richelle the convenience and opportunity to enter the house at any time.
Should he say yes?
Then Richelle could take the search warrant and dig up everything about him legitimately.
“Brother, is this so hard for you?”
Richelle kept calling him “brother,” which made her sound very intimate.
But everyone present knew that her sweet words were like poisoned swords.
Harris Dunn found himself in a tough spot. In the end, he reluctantly chose the relatively safer option.
“Of course not. As I’ve said before, my sister can come back whenever she wants.”
Richelle Dunn immediately smiled, “Thank you, brother!”
This intimate way she addressed him as “brother” gave Harris Dunn chills. He increasingly realized that Richelle was several levels more cunning and vicious than he had thought.
Only then did Harris Dunn truly understand that he and his parents had always underestimated Richelle.
If only they had gone back to the tile house to personally make sure she was dead.
Then none of the misfortunes and suffering that would follow would have fallen upon their family!
