Chapter 500: The Perpetrator
"Are you certain this is her?" Seb inquired cautiously, his gaze fixed on the sketch artist who presented the drawing to him.
Rosied leaned in beside Seb, his curiosity piqued as he peered at the sketch. A gasp escaped his lips involuntarily. How could it be? He opened his mouth to speak up when Seb cast him a sharp glance. Having worked with the man so long, he did not need any other signal to firmly shut his mouth. However, he did feel antsy...
Detective Davis stepped forward and answered for the artist," Yes. This is exactly how the woman described her. And as you can see, we now know the identity of the woman of perpetrated the death threats and the attacks as well as the person responsible for trying to harm your wife."
Seb narrowed his eyes at the Detective. The sudden change in her tune did not relieve him but instead highlighted his suspicions. Could it be that she was somehow involved in the entire case? It wouldn’t be something shocking. After all, when Nora had been stalked, the man’s brother had been protecting him under the huise of the uniform.
Another silent glance passed between him and Rosie, where the latter gave a subtle nod, understanding that they needed to investigate the detective herself.
"You found the woman, Detective Davis?"
The woman nodded and raised her chin," Yes. I believe I owe you an apology for being suspicious of your wife’s motives. But when my partner pointed out my error, I was intent on getting justice. So, I went to the mall to investigate. From there, I found that she had spoken to another colleague during lunch hours and inadverently let them know where she was from. After that is was really simple to track her down."
Seb raised his eyebrows," Good detective work, Officer. And how did you get her to confess? Was she willing to give up this face so easily?"
Detective Davis frowned and looked at the man carefully. Why did it feel as if he was being sarcastic? She bristled and was about to snap at him when her eyes met her partners who gave her a warning glance. Swallowing her anger, she shook her head," It wasn’t. At first she even refused to acknowledge that she had been bribed to sell the toxic oils and insisted that it was the company who had hired her."
