Divorced The True Heiress Gets It All novel Chapter 755

Chapter 755

Deangelo asked, “Who are you?”

The man handed him a box. “Delivery.”

Deangelo figured it was something Elsie ordered and took it instinctively. The man glanced around the room, locking eyes

with Owen.

Deangelo didn’t see a delivery slip, so he said, “Why isn’t-”

The delivery guy turned around and left without another word.

Owen frowned, and Deangelo shut the door, still looking confused.

Elsie glanced at Deangelo in surprise, saying, “Do you shop online now?”

Deangelo looked completely baffled. “Isn’t this something you bought?”

The room suddenly fell silent. Owen immediately stood up and said, “Mr. Reed, let me take a look at that package.”

Aria stopped checking on Elsie.

Owen took the box and noticed there was no delivery slip on it.

“Wait a second.” Deangelo got up, fetched a pair of gloves, and said, “Be careful. Open it with gloves on.”

“Okay,” Owen said.

Owen checked for any sign of explosives or hazards, let out a short breath, and cautiously opened the lid. Inside was an oddly made little doll.

“What’s this supposed to mean?” Elsie asked, confused.

Deangelo was just as puzzled. “I have no idea.”

Owen grabbed a bag, stuffed the doll inside, and threw the gloves in the trash. “We’ll check with the neighbors later. Maybe it wasn’t just us. If not, we’ll dig into who that guy was.”

Deangelo nodded. “Okay.”

Since it was just a little doll, Deangelo and Elsie didn’t pay much attention to it. Aria grabbed Elsie’s wrist gently and said, “Mrs. Reed, let’s keep going.

Elsie nodded.

Five minutes later, Aria withdrew her hand. “Mrs. Reed’s body is a bit weak from childhood malnutrition. Coughing mainly comes from emotional distress, which means it can’t be treated. Don’t worry. With proper care, she will get better.”

Elsie grabbed her hand, excited. “So, can I-”

Knowing she meant the baby, Aria nodded firmly. “Yes. If you trust me, follow the treatment plan. I’ll come back to Kanit City next week to give you acupuncture therapy.”

Elsie’s biggest issue was psychological, and that was always the hardest to treat. The body listened to the head, and if she stayed stuck, healing would be really hard. Saying she couldn’t keep the baby would only crush her.

Elsie’s health wasn’t ideal for pregnancy, but Aria decided to give her a chance-try some meds first and see how things looked in a month. If nothing changed, the baby probably couldn’t make it.

Elsie looked visibly relieved. She said, “I trust you. I’ll take the medicine like you said.”

Aria added, “And make sure you get enough sleep.”

The medicine Aria listed was pretty pricey, but Deangelo could afford it. He asked, “How much do you charge? I’ll pay market price if that’s alright.”

Aria grinned and joked, “Mr. Reed, I won’t charge you if you can come to the Stars Group.”

Deangelo knew what she was trying to say. He said, “Well, I’m not that broke yet.”

Aria grinned. “Then you don’t have to pay me. I really like Mrs. Reed. It’s free for friends.”

“No. I have to pay you,” said Deangelo.

Aria said, “Come on, it’s not for you. It’s for Mrs. Reed. Don’t feel bad about it.”

Deangelo was at a loss for words.

Aria and Owen left the house together, taking the doll with them. While waiting for the elevator, they ran into a resident. Owen stepped forward and asked, “Excuse me, have you received a doll like this recently?”

The resident shook his head. “No, I haven’t. Is this some kind of event giveaway or something?”

No. Thank you though,” Owen said.

After getting into the elevator, Aria sent a message to Deangelo. [Mr. Reed, please check the surveillance footage and send it o me. Try not to alarm Mrs. Reed. I don’t want her to overthink it.]

Deangelo: [Got it. I’ll report it to the police and have them look into it.]

With the serial killings in Kahit City on the news lately, he couldn’t help but start to worry.

Owen had the doll tested at a nearby lab. The results showed no traces of drugs or any identifiable fingerprints. Meanwhile, Deangelo was waiting at the police station.

By the time Aria and Owen arrived, they heard a police officer saying, “It’s just a doll, and there’s no physical harm involved, so we can’t file a report. Sorry, we’ve got more serious stuff going on.”

Deangelo was unhappy about it. “Isn’t this serious enough?”

“Mr. Reed,” Aria called out,

The police officer turned and, recognizing her, immediately softened his tone, “Ms. Saxon, please wait here. I’ll go get Mr. Ludwig right away.” Then he rushed off.

He had been told to notify Ronald as soon as Aria showed up.

Deangelo grew even more annoyed. “Do the police not take public safety seriously anymore?”

Aria didn’t answer him. She just pulled out her phone, opened her photo album, and asked, “Mr. Reed, do the guy’s eyes

look like that?”
