Even after her death novel

Chapter 332 After he hung up, Ethan looked at all the new leads before him. In the time Olivia was out of town, he

had gotten to investigating the whereabouts of Toxic Hive and about the past. He found the hometown of Paul Cruz and Clara Foster. According to what his people found out, the

child had been gone for some days. From the pictures provided by the villagers, the child looked a lot

like Belle and had some of Paul's features. Paul and Clara had also disappeared from Aldenvine. Even though he couldn't bring the child back,

their existence was proof enough. Someone had pinned the blame on Jeff. The claims about Belle having his baby and Jeff forcing her

away, which caused her to suffer from mental illness before she ultimately committed suicide didn't

hold up to scrutiny. Someone had plotted everything, even before Jeff's traffic accident. But it didn't seem like the person

wanted to harm him. Their main objective was to destroy his relationship with Olivia. The person went to great lengths to get him to divorce Olivia. They spent countless time and energy

over a few years to set everything up. Now that most of the truth was revealed, one thing remained a mystery. What did the person stand to

gain from his divorce? If it was to take Olivia's place, no young women had approached him in the two

years he was divorced. Ethan also didn't understand the connection between Leia's death and Jeff. After he went through all his leads, he looked at Brent and asked, "Did that Moriarty kid take any

action?" "No. His routine has been very simple. He spends most of his time at the office and goes home

afterward. Besides the occasional social engagement, he hasn't been anywhere special." "What about people he socialized with?" "We've people keeping an eye on those people as well. We haven't noticed anything off about them.

But our tapping devices are running out of power soon. "Mr. Miller, we've spent the entire week keeping an eye on the kid. We haven't found anything

suspicious. Could we be wrong about him? Maybe his motive was just to help Mrs. Miller escape." Ethan rested his head on his hands and said with a severe expression, "No. The most suspicious thing

abou. is that we can't find anything wrong with him." Ethan felt like Colin seemed too calm. He wasn't even 20 years old, but he didn't even show the

slightest bit of fear when he was about to be thrown overboard. He might've already known it wouldn't happen. Ethan recalled Olivia's actions that night. Colin had

stood farther from Olivia than him, but they grabbed Olivia almost simultaneously. That meant he had known what Olivia was about to do. Ethan smiled bitterly. He didn't expect Olivia to

pull a stunt like that just to get him to let Colin off the hook. But there was nothing Ethan could do even if he knew. Colin was cunning. Ethan had already

witnessed that firsthand. "If my guess is correct, he must've known we would monitor him." Brent was stunned momentarily. "So that means he has been putting on a show for us? Damn, this kid

is so cunning. "No wonder he would always go the longer route. Sometimes, he'd buy a slice of cake. Other times,

he'd buy pastries. So he's been playing us all along." Ethan said with a grunt, "He'll reveal his true colors eventually. He'll keep scheming as long as Liv

doesn't show up. We have the initiative." "Mr. Miller, you mean …" "Liv wants to come back. I need to clear out all the threats before she does." Brent frowned. "But we haven't found Toxic Hive's lair." "If we can't trap them in their lair, why don't we lure them out?" They had always been put in a passive position and manipulated at every turn. "What will we use as bait?" Ethan stood up. His coat slipped off his shoulders as he moved. His tall figure blocked the light above,

casting a shadow over his desk. His face was shrouded in the shadows. Only the silhouette of his face was visible. He was like the devil in the dark. He said slowly, "Me.". Meanwhile, at the Moriarty residence, Colin was toying with a tapping device on his palm. He smirked

as its power ran out. He then threw it on the floor and stomped on it. The device was instantly crushed, and Colin disappeared into the darkness.
