Chapter 1051 Twist and Turn (5)

Tam watched his sister's urgent gaze, her brow furrowed in concentration as she thought back to the events of that night. It was a stark contrast from her usual carefree demeanor.

Rose stared at her brother with anticipation, too nervous to speak. After a moment of silence, Tom seemed to remember something and hesitated before speaking.

Seeing him like this, Rose couldn't hold back and spoke up. "If you think there's anything off about what happened that night, just tell me. Don't worry about misunderstandings.”

They had hit a dead end. The only way out was through Tom: if he couldn't find any clues, then they would be stuck in this situation.

If Madeleine and Rachel made their move first, things would only get worse for them and it was only a matter of time before Tom ended up behind bars.

Tom looked up at his sister's anxious expression and finally voiced his suspicions.

"I was feeling sick that night - I had a bit of a cold and my head felt dizzy. I think I might have even had a fever."

"One of my colleagues noticed how bad I looked and gave me some cold medicine.”

“At the time, I didn't think much of it but now looking back on it... that medicine might have been the only thing I ate or drank all night.” The woman's expression turned icy as soon as she heard this revelation; her eyes sharpened with intensity.

"It must be something wrong with that medication,” she said excitedly while grasping tightly onto Tom's wrist. “What is your colleague’s name? Do you know anything else about him?"

"He goes by Preston McKnight but other than that... I don't know much else."

Tam hung his head in self-blame while his voice became hoarse and low; regretting not being more cautious when taking medicine from someone else without knowing its origin or contents beforehand.

Rose understood how he felt, so she gently patted him on the shoulder while smiling reassuringly at him. "We've got our breakthrough now though, right?"

Tom lifted his gaze towards Rose worriedly. "Rose, just forget..." Before he could finish speaking however, Rose cut him off abruptly. "I understand what you're thinking, but please don't say it out loud because I'll get angry."

She knew exactly what kind of look Tam had on just now - one where he wanted to give up entirely - but how could they give up when they were siblings?

Madeleine and Rachel were cunning and malicious. Rose had just returned and was about to face them. Tom worried that she would be bullied by them.

Rose saw the worry in her brother's eyes and stepped forward, gently leaning on his shoulder. “Brother, you're my only family now."

The man stiffened and gently embraced his sister.

Rose looked up at her brother with a smile. "Don’t worry about me, I'll be fine.”

"It's you who needs to protect yourself here. I'll find evidence to get you out of there.”

The man lowered his gaze but met her concerned eyes with a firm nodPublished by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"Okay, I'll wait for you.”

After leaving the police station, Rose immediately took a taxi to the hotel.

Half an hour later, she got out of the car and walked quickly into the hotel lobby to inquire at the receptionist receptionist. "Excuse me, is Preston here?"

"Who are you?" The receptionist frowned in confusion at the woman standing before herself.

Upon hearing this question, Rose immediately put on a sad expression. "Preston is my cousin. We had an argument recently that led him to cut off contact with us.”

"My aunt was admitted into intensive care two days ago after being involved in a car accident. Our entire family has been trying to contact him but no one can reach him," she continued

"I called Preston's best friend yesterday and found out he works here so I came as soon as possible because I'm afraid my cousin won't be able to see his mother one last time."

The receptionist looked at Rose's tearful appearance and believed most of what she said already.

She sighed helplessly before saying, "You're too late; Preston has already resigned.”

"What?"

Rose widenedaer eyes in shock while lookingsdown sadly under questioning-gaze from the = receptionist. ‘My cousin actually resigned? Does that mean he really wontbe able to see her mother one last ime?" to 4

Feeling movethby Rose's situation, the receptionist couldn't help but say, '‘Dontworry; although Preston> has esigned, we still have records. of where employees live, so wait for me while I look up his address ‘for yotk” S

“You're such a kind person! Thank you!" choked up by emotions, Rose replied while pretending wiping non-existent tears from corner of her eye.

After getting Preston's current address ftom the receptionist, and finding.dut that he was local, Rose went straight away towards his rental’ apartment, only to discover it was s empty when she arrived there.

She couldn't afford to waste any time, so she immediately headed towards Preston's hometown, only to find out that his parents had passed away. When Rose heard this news, she stood frozen in place with an anxious expression on her pretty face.

The trial was about to begin and Preston was the only witness. If she couldn't find him, what would happen to her brother?

Her hand clenched tightly at her side as her long nails dug deep into her palm

What should she do to save her brother?
