Chapter 1249 The Real Matter at Hand

Olivia looked at Albert, her voice slightly icy, and said, “After all this build-up, shouldn’t we get to the real matter at hand?”

After hearing this, he chuckled awkwardly and uttered, “I apologize for the unpleasantness last time. I wanted to explain because I was worried you might misunderstand.”

Then, she sipped her tea and replied, “I’m not someone who can’t tell right from wrong. Just say what you have to say.”

“Okay, I’ll be direct. I did follow you, but I kept my distance. When I arrived, you had already entered the apartment complex. I waited nearby, but it was almost dawn when you came out. I realized that it wasn’t you but your friend. I felt relieved and was about to leave when I heard the sound of an ambulance. The injured person being carried out was covered in blood, and I instinctively felt it had something to do with your friend. So, I took the liberty to investigate the matter. The injured person turned out to be Brett Jams, the owner of Hilton Casino. I was concerned about potential trouble, so I asked River to keep an eye on Brett.”

After hearing this, Olivia’s face darkened inexorably, and her aura grew icier. Her gaze toward Albert inexplicably carried a sense of oppression. “What do you mean? Are you trying to use this to threaten me?”

After hearing this, Albert composed himself, and fearing that Olivia might become enraged again, he said, “The person who was taken away by the police last time was your friend, right? I apologize for not getting your consent before conducting my investigation. The police suspect that she killed Brett. However, there was another incident on the night of the 3rd. I thought it might help clear your friend’s name.”

Nonetheless, she was momentarily puzzled by the unexpected turn of events. “You’re saying that something else happened that night? What happened?”

Afterward, he quickly stated, “River experienced something that night, so let him tell you.” While saying this, he glanced at River.

In the meantime, River stood up and bowed deeply to Olivia. “Miss Maxwell, I apologize for my impoliteness during our last encounter, and Mr. Bleu also scolded me afterward. I hope you won’t take what I said to heart. Hopefully, what I will tell you can compensate for my previous behavior. Around 1.00AM on the 3rd, I saw a woman in a stealth suit descending from a window at the hospital. She chose a blind spot with no surveillance, and I was looking for a place to relieve myself without being seen. That’s when we encountered each other. She attacked me, and Mr. Bleu said she was likely trying to silence me. This person was skilled in combat, and I could tell she was a woman. In the heat of battle, I happened to notice the red rose tattoo on her ankle.” After he took a breather, he added, “Oh, and she was wearing a leather glove that could shoot steel wires. The injury on my arm was caused by her wire. She intended to strangle me, but I blocked her with my arm, resulting in the injury. When we heard the sound of police sirens, she stopped engaging with me, and that was when I learned about Brett’s death.”
