“I just don’t understand… I really don’t. Wasn’t my mom his benefactor? Why didn’t he do anything?”
Seeing her spiral, Ethan pulled her into his arms, worry written all over his face.
“Sweetheart, we’ll get justice for your mom. I’ll help you. I’ll help you make things right, okay? Just… calm down first.”
Dawn couldn’t calm down.
She couldn’t face it either.
Hershes trembled gently, and beneath the unsteady emotions, there was something else, something she couldn’t name.
Ethan had booked a hotel room nearby. After a long time coaxing her, Dawn finally fell asleep.
By 9 a.m., Tony arrived.
“Sir.”
He handed over a folder. “This is the footage from the scene, copied from Ms. Porter’s car. It’s clearer than the nearby street cameras.”
“Mm.” Ethan took it and asked in a low voice, “Have the police handled things over there?”
“Yes. They’ll notify me immediately if there’s any update.”
“Keep an eye on Andy. If he tries to leave Northville, intercept him.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Tony left.
Ethan sat on the couch and started reviewing the footage.
Just as Dawn had said, the
first
person she saw after getting out of the car was Micah–no one else.
The video was grainy, and the sound was unclear, but it was obvious that their initial conversation seemed calm enough.
After a while, Dawn’s face grew paler.
She suddenly stood up.
Something was said that clearly upset Micah. His emotions red, and he even moved physically.

By 11 a.m., Dawn had slept lightly but woke up from a nightmare.
Sweat soaked her hair as she jolted upright, gasping.
Hearing the noise, Ethan opened the door and pulled her into his arms. “It’s okay. I’m here.”
Dawn calmed slightly but hadn’t slept well. Her head felt heavy, like it was weighed down.
“I’m fine.”
Her voice was hoarse as she lifted her head from his chest.
“How’s Micah?”
“Still unconscious. Let’s eat first.”
“I don’t…”
“Do you want Micah to wake up and see you like this?”
Ethan’s words shut her up. She pressed her lips together and said nothing more.
Ethan had the restaurant downstairs deliver breakfast quickly: three simple dishes and a soup.
Dawn forced down a few bites, her stomach uneasy.
After she set down her fork, the phone rang. It was the police.
“Mr. Jackson, the technical unit’s analysis isplete. Ms. Porter’s car brakes were definitely tampered with. The issue is… if she drove normally to the scene, the sabotage must have urred there. But we didn’t find any suspicious people or vehicles.”
Having watched the footage, Ethan knew there was no fourth person.
Then how were the brakes tampered with?
It wasn’t telekinesis.

Dawn shook her head. Nothing made sense in her mind. “Was it to frame me, or to keep me from knowing something?”
But the drive happened after the conversation. She already knew what she needed <i>to </i>know, so what would framing her achieve?
Ethan’s gaze darkened. Another possibility lingered<i>… </i>Killing two birds with one stone.
Dawn had spent so long at the hospital yesterday; she felt grimy all over and wanted a shower before going
out.
Ethan adjusted the hot water, ncing at her. “You really don’t want me to help?”
Dawnughed and pushed him out
“I can manage myself. Just wait outside.”
Ethan’s eyes softened with a faint smile. He closed the bathroom door and immediately got a message from Tony.
“Sir, Mr. Kelsinger is downstairs.”
Mr. Kelsinger. Andy Kelsinger.
Ethan’s eyes darkened further. He nced toward the bathroom, grabbed his cont, and went out. Downstairs, Andy hadn’t entered the hotel. He leaned against the outer wall, a cigarette in hand. His usual work
