Chapter 186 Not The Sort To Kill Herself
Arielle unhurriedly fished out a photograph from her pocket and turned it to Susanne.
Depicted in the photograph was none other than her very good friend—Maureen.
Susanne gaped at Arielle, her eyes widening in disbelief.
This vixen looks just like her! She gives off the same air too. Besides, she was able to produce a photograph… Thoughts raced wildly through Susanne’s head.
It can’t be!
After a moment, Arielle commented coolly, “It looks like you do know my mom.”
Dumbfounded, Susanne continued staring at Arielle wordlessly. She raised a trembling finger and pointed at Arielle. Her lips parted as if she were about to speak but only managed to croak out a single syllable, “You…”
Arielle nodded calmly. “Yes. I’m Arielle Moore, Maureen’s daughter.”
Susanne felt her head spinning.
She had interrogated the butler for every detail about Arielle except for her name.
If Susanne had known that this woman shared the same last name as Maureen, she would have been able to deduce her identity more accurately.
It took Susanne a long while to recover from the shock. Gulping, she asked doubtfully, “Weren’t you kidnapped ten years ago by those traffickers?”
Susanne felt a wave of regret wash over her. When Maureen died and her only daughter had vanished, Susanne had done her best to look for the daughter. However, the chaos in Susanne’s own home fully absorbed her attention for a long while. The missing person’s case had grown cold since then.
Arielle twisted her hands together nervously. “Was my mom’s death really due to suicide?”
Susanne stared at Arielle, her eyes darkening.
She examined Arielle, then said cautiously, “Are you suspecting that your dad…?”
Arielle nodded firmly. “That’s right.”
Susanne sighed heavily. “At first, I suspected that as well, so I conducted a private investigation of my own. I didn’t manage to uncover anything. They either managed to cover up their tracks completely, or it wasn’t done by them at all.”
Arielle’s brow furrowed. “If it wasn’t them, I can’t think of anyone else who would hurt my mom. I can tell that you know this, just as well as I do. Mom’s not the sort who would kill herself.”
