Chapter 269
After Edward entered the police station, Susan picked up the business card under the car seat and looked at it.
It was a very ordinary card, and its quality was not very good. Two hundred yuan by the road could be printed into a stack of quality, but the black words on it made Susan’s face turn pale.
It was a business card of an orphanage, and the name of the orphanage was naturally familiar to Susan. She used to come out of this orphanage and was adopted by Qi Jiying!
“Why does Edward have this orphanage’s business card on him?”
She didn’t think it was a coincidence. With Edward’s life circle, she couldn’t get in touch with the lowest level of society at all. The orphanage didn’t have much fame in Haleston City. It was abnormal for Edward to pay attention to it, unless there was only one possibility. Edward was in contact with this orphanage for something.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Or, investigate.
Susan had a bad feeling. She clenched the business card in her hand with her fingers.
The more glamorous a person looked, the more afraid of being dug out of her past. Susan knew very well how dirty and ugly her past was. This was the black spot that she could not get rid of, as well as the knot in her heart.
She was afraid that she would be exposed day and night and return to her original form, so she tried every means to cover it up.
It wasn’t easy for her to live a good life in a rich and powerful family. She couldn’t let all her previous efforts go to waste.
Over the years, Susan had never gone back to the orphanage, let alone set foot in the nightclub where she used to make money by selling out her physical body. Her name had changed from the former No. 1 actor, Rose, to the current Susan, completely cutting off the past and present.
The nightclub had closed down a few years ago. Susan’s hands and feet were illegal. Most of the Misses sitting on the stage were young girls, and the customers liked to play with young girls.
A few years ago, the yellow storm in the city was very serious. Susan took advantage of the policy to report it many times, but later it was all over the place.
The person in charge, who was related to the ladies sitting on the stage, was sentenced to a severe punishment. A few men were beaten to disabled because they had offended someone in prison. It was unknown whether they would be released or not after the punishment was completed.
There was also the owner of the nightclub. A month after his disappearance, he was rescued from a river. His body was soaked in water. It was unknown whether it was because he had escaped from an accident or he had been murdered. The case had been hanging up until now and had not been solved.
Susan’s past was almost completely buried in the darkness. Those who knew her in the past were either in prison or dead or disabled. As for those who used to be her guests, most of them were poor old men. They had no ability and could not make any waves.
There were a few gangsters who didn’t know what was good for them. They wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail her. Now they were all in prison. The reason was very serious.
The only thing that Susan couldn’t erase was that she was adopted by Qi Jiying in the orphanage.
This was a hidden danger in her heart, but she was lucky to think that in this indifferent society, very few people would really come into contact with the orphanage, so she had been taking it lightly.
Until now, Edward suddenly paid attention to the orphanage where she used to live. It was too strange. The sense of crisis told her that Edward must be investigating her.
As for the investigation, Susan thought of two possibilities.
First, it must be Nelissa’s plot. She might have confessed everything to Edward. Knowing that she was not the real daughter of the Quest family, she began to investigate her past, trying to get her back to her original state.
Second, she was suspected of Nelissa’s car accident!
No matter what, Susan felt very terrible. She had an impulse to scream and go crazy. She couldn’t let Edward continue to investigate. She didn’t want others to know her past. It was Nelissa’s fault. It was Nelissa’s fault!
Susan’s temper became crazy. She pulled her hair hard with her hands and snapped a few strands of hair between her fingers. She opened the wrinkled business card and thought that she had to find a time to go back to the orphanage to see if those who knew her were still there.
At present, what she was going to do was too eye-catching and could only be suppressed as much as she wanted. Edward might not have time to think about her affairs, and he was also entangled in the matter of Sophie.
Susan took a deep breath and took a deep look at the police before she drove away. Even if Edward suspected that she did it, it was hard to find evidence to prove her innocence.
When Edward left the police station, it was already night time. He held a file bag in his hand. The driver drove over to pick him up and went straight to the hospital.
It was already an hour by the time they arrived at Nelissa’s ward.
Nelissa was sleeping. When she heard someone open the door and come in, she had already woken up. But she was lazy and didn’t want to open her eyes. It wasn’t until her footsteps got closer to the bed that she slowly opened the curtain. The next moment, a man’s big hand covered her eyes, and her sight was dark.
Nelissa’s heart beat faster. She instinctively opened her mouth and called out softly, but her voice was sealed in her throat by two warm, thin lips. After a brief exchange of lips and teeth, she heard Edward’s sexy voice pressing against her ear. “It’s me. Don’t shout.”
Nelissa knew from the beginning that it was Edward, but she still couldn’t control her heart. She opened her mouth slightly and breathed quickly. Edward felt thirsty inexplicably, so he leaned down and kissed her fragrant soft red lips.
He took the sweet honey.
All over Nelissa’s body, including her small mouth, Edward was very satisfied and obsessed with it.
The deep kiss ended;
Edward gradually left Nelissa’s red lips and straightened his body. He moved his big, warm hand away from her eyes. Her watery eyes reflected her newly awakened hazy eyes. She was looking at him in a daze. Her lovely and tender appearance was very beautiful.
“Yingyong.” Nelissa stretched out her little white hands to him. Suddenly, she wanted to flirt with this man.
Edward grabbed Nelissa’s fingertips and caressed her skin. He lowered his gaze and asked her, “Who came this afternoon?”
Nelissa didn’t say a word. She knew in her heart that it must be the bodyguards outside who told him.
Edward’s brows twitched slightly, but he didn’t let Nelissa muddle by. “I’m asking you a question, a question.”
Nelissa was honest. “Zayden.”
Edward’s face was full of displeasure and obvious emotions. He let go of Nelissa’s fingertips and pursed his thin lips without saying a word. Nelissa sat up on the bed and quickly tidied her slightly messy long hair with her fingers. She looked up at Edward with eager eyes. Looking at his unhappy expression, she felt a little guilty.
She knew that Edward didn’t like her meeting with Zayden. He had never allowed anyone to challenge his bottom line. If it were anyone else, he would have lost his temper long ago. He was very tolerant of her.
“Are you angry?” she asked in a low voice. Edward just frowned and stared at her without replying.
