Chapter 703 Did you Have a Fight?
Just as she was getting out of the bathroom after washing up, her phone rang.
Violet hurriedly put down the clothes she was about to change into and walked towards the bed, sitting on the edge of the bed, she picked up the phone on the bedside table, glanced at the caller ID and immediately answered it, "Hello Detective Chambers."
"Greetings, Mrs. Murphy." The other party politely returned.
Violet asked, "Detective Chambers, have you gotten any results on the matter I asked you to investigate yesterday?"
On the other end of the phone, Detective Chambers shook his head, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Murphy, I've checked everything about Miss Robinson in the last few days and found that Miss Robinson didn't get into any trouble."
"No?" Violet frowned.
How can there be none?
That look on Jessie's face, full of apology and worry, clearly indicated that something had happened.
Detective Chambers knew what she was thinking and shook his head and added, "Mrs. Murphy, it's true that there is no such thing, Miss Robinson has hardly had any contact with others in the last few days, but the most obvious time when Miss Robinson's mood changed was three days ago."
"Three days ago?" Violet sat down on the edge of the bed, "What happened three days ago?"
Three days ago, she remembered just happened to be the day that Jessie came to George and told him about the real murderer.
"I'm not sure about the details, three days ago, Miss Robinson came out of the third hospital and broke down emotionally for a while. I checked the surveillance of the third hospital at that time, Miss Robinson was crying a lot at that time, after that, she asked for leave to go back to her parents' house, so I guessed that what happened to Miss Robinson might be related to Dr. Joe of the third hospital." Detective Chambers said.
Violet nodded, "I know, thank you, I'll gave you the final payment later."
"Okay."
The call ended and Violet put down her phone, her brow furrowed tightly.
She originally thought that Jessie was in some kind of trouble to be like this.
But to her surprise, in the end, the reason was still related to George.
It seemed that when Jessie went to George that day, something else happened between the two that she didn't know about, otherwise Jessie wouldn't be like this.
Thinking, Violet picked up her phone and called George.
However, George's phone was still turning off and he couldn't be reached.
This caused Violet an immense headache.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Even if George was looking for the murderer, he wouldn't turn off all his cell phones and make it impossible to contact him.
As she was thinking, there was a knock on the door of the room and Bella's voice came from the door, "Mrs. Murphy, are you awake?"
Violet looked up towards the door, "Yes."
"Then come out for breakfast first." Bella added.
Violet answered, "Okay, I'll be right down."
Getting her reply, Bella dropped her hand from the door and turned to go downstairs.
Violet also put down her phone and continued to change her clothes.
It was just that since I could not contact George, it was better to start with Jessie.
Having a proper heart-to-heart talk with Jessie might clear up what happened between Jessie and George before and solve Jessie's current predicament.
After changing her clothes, Violet put on makeup before opening the door to her room and going out.
While eating breakfast, she sent a message to Jessie, asking her to go back to work in J City.
At this moment, Jessie was accompanying Lorenzo to watch a movie.
When she received Violet's message, she and Lorenzo were just coming out of the cinema after watching the movie.
"Lorenzo, let's go sit over there while I reply a message." Jessie pointed to the row of chairs in front of her.
Lorenzo nodded in agreement, "Okay, go ahead, I'll go buy some drinks, what do you want to drink? I remember you liked mango milkshake when you were a kid, do you still like it now?"
"Of course." Jessie nodded happily, "I didn't expect you to still remember, Lorenzo, it's been twenty years."
"Of course I remember, I have never forgotten what you like." Lorenzo looked at her with deep eyes.
The smile on Jessie's face froze for a moment, and her lips twitched as she was about to say something.
Lorenzo chuckled, "Alright, go over there and wait for me first, I'm going to get a milkshake."
With that, he turned around and headed in the other direction to the milk tea shop.
Jessie watched his back and frowned slightly.
What was going on?
Why did she feel like when he just gave her that look, as if he was interested in her?
Was it an illusion?
It should be an illusion, they'd been separated for twenty years, how could Lorenzo like her?
Shaking her head, Jessie didn't think much about it and went to the row of chairs.
After sitting down, she then clicked on Violet's message and read it, seeing the content on it, her eyes dimmed for a moment before she typed, "Sorry, Violet, I might not be able to come back tomorrow, I still want to stay at home with my parents for two days, please forgive me."
She still had a lot of stuff that she hadn't gotten for her parents yet.
She would wait until after that.
J City, Violet finished drinking milk when she heard her phone vibrate next to her, knowing that it was Jessie who had replied, she immediately put down her milk cup and picked up her phone. Looking at the message Jessie replied, she pursed her red lips before sending her a voice message, "Jessie, do you really still want to stay with your parents, or do you not want to come back?"
All of the work at Jessie was distributed, clearly indicating that there was no intention of returning to the office. Otherwise, she wouldn't have sought out Jessie, much less questioned Jessie for not wanting to come back.
Jessie's heart jolted after hearing Violet's voice.
She didn't think that Violet would know right away that she was lying.
Jessie sighed and replied, "Violet, I'm sorry that I just lied to you, I admit it, I don't want to come back, and I don't plan to come back in the future, period."
When she finished, she simply put down the phone.
Lorenzo returned with a milkshake and a cup of coffee, just in time to hear this from her, handed her the milk tea and asked, "Who is it? Let you go back where?"
"It's my bestie." Jessie took the milkshake and said, "My bestie and I created a clothing design company in J City, and now my bestie has asked me to go back to work, but I don't plan to go back."
"Is that Violet?" Lorenzo asked as he sat down beside her.
Jessie was surprised, "How do you know?"
"When I came to look for you, I got to know you a little bit, your bestie is beautiful." Lorenzo said as he opened the lid of his coffee and took a sip.
Jessie looked at him warily, "Lorenzo, you don't have any thoughts about my bestie, do you? Let me tell you, don't, my bestie is indeed very beautiful, unbelievably beautiful, but she's married and has three kids, so you don't stand a chance."
After hearing her words, Lorenzo was amused, raised his hand and knocked her head, "What are you talking about? How could I possibly have thoughts about your bestie? I just complimented her on her beauty, she is indeed the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, but I don't have any thoughts about her. I know that she is married and her husband is still the chairman of the Murphy Group."
"You know all this?" Jessie was stunned.
Lorenzo nodded, "Of course, Mr. Murphy and I sort of know each other, I work for a company abroad and am in charge of receiving business tycoons, and the tycoon at this side is him." "So that's how it is." Jessie nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Lorenzo finished his coffee and threw the disposable cup into the trash can next to him, then bent his head to look at her, "Tell me about you, your best friend asked you to go back to work, why didn't you go back? Isn't that the company you founded together? Did you have a fight?"☐☐☐
