Chapter 361
The Cowells panicked when they heard this.
“ra’s the one in trouble right now. Not the whole family.”
At that thought, Francis was the first to speak up. “I’ve been a little busy recently, sir. I’ve got no idea
what my cousin’s been doing so I’d like to retract my statement, 1 have no idea where ra was at the
time.”
Hugo followed suit and said, “Me too! I’ve been busy with work so I wasn’t paying attention to her
whereabouts”

Nathan was instantly enraged when he heard this. ‘They’re abandoning rake cowards now?!
Does family mean so little to them?!!
Honestly, was there a single Cowell who actually cared about each other? Were they all not just looking
out for themselves? ra’s world started falling apart when she saw Francis and Hugo backing out
from being her alibi.
In fact, even Violet joined in and said, “I haven’t been paying attention to where ra has been.
However, we’ll be sure to assist with your investigation”
Grandmother…” ra had not expected Violet would end up choosing not to take her side at such a
critical moment.
Violer was afraid that the entire family would end up being executed. After all, she had put in an entire
life’s worth of effort into building the family.
Thus, at that moment, there was no point even if Nathan and Tracy wanted to be ra’s alibi.
Adrian said, ‘ra Cowell, since nobody here is willing to be your alibi, I will now ask you this… Where
were you at the time of Simon’s death? Who were you with?”
1–L
ra got anxious. She did not dare mention Seth’s name because she knew that the department
would open up an investigation against him if she did. If that happened, it would only be a matter of
time before her involvement was exposed and she would be dead before she even realized it.
After pondering for a very long time, she replied, “I–I wasn’t feeling well that day. It was that time of the
month for me so 1 stayed at home and slept. My parents know about this.”
“Yes, she’s right!” Nathan nodded, refusing to abandon his daughter as Hugo dxd. “My daughter wasn’t
feeling well those few days. I even made her something to eat to help her feel better!
In truth, Adrian and the Cowells were now ying a mind game, and the key to winning was how long
ra could hold out before crumbling.
“ra… All I need is to take a blood sample from you and I’ll be able to find out if you’ve been with a
man within the past seven days. If the resultse back positive, it’d be alwaous that you’re lying.”
“I–I… You can’t take my blood if you don’t have proper evidence.”
Daniel thought that this was funny and said, “You’re right about that, ra”
ralicaved a sigh of relief, while Adrian gestured for ra’s cell phone to he brought to him.
“Your phone will prove to us where you’ve been over the past few days.
With that, Adrian handed the phone to Dantel, who made another gesture. Then, a few termins
walked over with their Laptops.
Adrian said, “You may think you’ve deleted all incriminating evidence from your phone, but the
department’s technicians will be able to help you recover them. We’ll soon find out whether you’re
involved in Simon’s death.”
ra started to tremble, finding it harder and harder to remain calm.
Very quickly, the technicians were able to recover everything that ra had deleted from her phone.
Adrian nced through the data before he said, “Looks like he tried calling you more than a dozen
times a few hours prior to his death but you answered not a single one of them. Were you two having a
lover’s quarrel?”
ra shuddered, while Adrian continued, “Jodging from your phone’s GPS, you’ve been frequenting a
hotel over the past few days… Gorgonshire’s Holiday Resort. General Daniel, have our men ce this
hotel on lockdown and conduct a thorough investigation”
Daniel made another phone call to arrange for his men to take control of the hotel.
