Semua Bab Dead on His First Love's Death Anniversary: Bab 1 - Bab 9

Connor Simpson arrived at the police station in the wee hours of the morning, anxiously inquiring, "Where was the body found? How long has she been dead?"Police captain, Donald Leeman, glanced at the lipstick stain on Connor's collar and answered guiltily, "We just found her. The person's motorcycle was going too fast. We’ve already sent someone after them."He had just finished speaking when another colleague came in from outside with a stern look. "Captain Leeman, that person should have a partner. We lost him. The road surveillance cameras are also broken. We have no leads for now."Donald looked furious. "The murderer is challenging the police by sending the body to the police station so blatantly! We must catch them as soon as possible to give justice to the deceased!"With that said, he patted Connor on the shoulder again. "I'm sorry I kept you from celebrating your wife's birthday."Connor's grim face was filled with disgust at the mention of me. "Who's celebrating that mu

With that said, he turned to look at the other side. "See if anyone has made a police report recently. If they reported a missing woman, pay more attention. The deceased's blood has been sent for data comparison, but the results are expected to take three days."Connor's phone rang once he finished speaking."Connor, why didn't anyone pick up the birthday cake I ordered for Clarisse at the bakery? She's not answering my calls either. Is Clarisse with you?"It was his sister, Celia Simpson, who was also my only best friend at school. If it were not for her, I would not have met Connor.My parents died young and I had no other relatives.After Audrey's death, she was the only one who would secretly celebrate my birthday for me.As expected, Connor's face darkened when he heard my name. "With me? Who does she think she is? As for why she didn't text you back, she was probably embarrassed. If it wasn't for her, would Audrey be dead? Despite this, you're even thinking of celebrating h

Connor said with a blank expression, "Call the police? Don't waste resources. Don't think I don't know that she's just making a scene out of jealousy. Let her be. It's none of my business."Celia was already shaking with anger. "Connor, are you blind? Rosalie doesn't look like a good person! Stay away from her! Go and get Clarisse!"Connor turned furious and shouted, "Celia, don't forget. I'm your older brother! What spell did Clarisse put on you to make you side with her? She's really capable. She caused all these problems after disappearing."With that said, he picked up his phone and opened our chat and spoke cruelly, "Clarisse, why are you pretending? Do you think I'll feel sorry for you? You'd better die out there and never come back. Otherwise, I won't spare you."Celia looked at him with disappointment. "Connor, how did you become like this? I don't know you at all. If you don't look for her, I will," she said and left.Connor stood straight, his eyes dark. No one knew what

I then noticed that his eyes were awfully red.Donald and several police officers who were checking the scene glanced and silently looked away.Connor was silent throughout the search for evidence. It was not until he returned to the police station that he sat down in a chair and gasped as if he had lost all his strength.The police around him were taking everything they found in the abandoned warehouse for lab testing.Connor held his forehead, his voice hoarse. "When will the test results for evidence related to the murderer be out?"A police officer replied, "It should take no more than a day."Connor nodded before suddenly looking up, perplexed. "Clarisse killed Audrey. Yeah, how could I be sad... I should be glad she's dead." After saying that, he forced a smile, but it was grotesque.Rosalie rushed over and saw Connor. She frowned and tried to touch him. "Connor, what came over you..."Connor dodged, rubbing his eyes and saying hoarsely, "What are you doing here instead o

Connor moved his stiff body and looked at Celia with pain in his eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?"Celia smiled wryly and replied, "She wouldn't let me. She said she knew you didn't like her and didn't want to hold it over you because she was afraid you'd be upset. Tell me. How stupid is she? You have no idea how much she suffered when you and Audrey were displaying your affection."Connor hugged the urn in his arms, looking desperate, "It turns out I have been in love with the wrong person. Clarisse, I'm sorry... What can I do to make you come back?" He bent over and wept uncontrollably.Celia wiped away her tears and looked condescendingly at him. "Connor, she won't forgive you. You'll spend the rest of your life in agony!" Celia said and walked away without looking back.The pain in Connor's eyes deepened. After some time, he gradually calmed down and reverted to that noble, distant expression. Connor held my ashes and smiled gently. "Clarisse, I'll take you home."Why? I was puz
