Divorced My Scum Husband, Married His Evil brother

Chapter 625 625

The Officer sighed, "Unfortunately, Ma'am, we found no trace of her phone. Chelsea Davis said that she lost it somewhere, so we can't find any evidence."

Chloe's heart dropped. Chelsea wasn't usually careless like that, and her gut feeling told her she didn't exactly lose it.

It must've been Vincent's doing, maybe he stole it or took it from Chelsea directly, but Chelsea might be unaware of it.

"Then you should search for it," Chloe insisted. "I think she didn't just lose it somewhere. My husband is a very meticulous person, he must've done something to retrieve that phone, because the damning evidence would be inside his phone."

"We… we will try to search for it," Officer Derek said.

"What if you check on his phone instead. I believe you may find something—"

"We can't do that, Ma'am," Officer Derek interrupted. "Mr. Vincent Gray is not a suspect. He is not obliged to show his phone because it contains a lot of privacy that we can't pry on. He is just a witness, after all."

"Damn…" Chloe cursed in a low voice. It seemed that Vincent must've planned everything at this point. Vincent might look and act recklessly, but when he had a plan set in his mind, he would never tolerate any failure. There was a reason why Vincent could keep his name clean and his business running smoothly.

It was because he became a coldhearted cunning man when he was serious, the same trait that Vernon had.

Though she knew that she wouldn't be able to completely ruin Vincent because of this case, she could at least get revenge by creating a buzz.

"Then, that's all, Officer," Chloe said. "Try to find Chelsea's phone, and—"

Chloe paused for a moment and then asked, "—May I know when you will call my husband as a witness in this case?"

Officer Derek answered without hesitation since this was Vincent Gray's wife who asked, "The investigation is still ongoing, Ma'am. But we shall interrogate him here in three days."

"Great, thank you for the info."

"What are you going to do, Ma'am?" Officer Derek asked. He started to get suspicious because it wasn't exactly a secret. After all, this case would go public soon. Vincent Gray would eventually be summoned as a witness during the trial because Chelsea Davis kept mentioning him. "Do you want to accompany him during the interrogation? I'm sorry, Ma'am, you cannot do that. You may accompany him during the trial later."

"Ah, it's nothing," Chloe quickly denied. "I just want to make sure."

Officer Derek nodded, "Alright then, do you want to have a talk with your sister first? Don't worry, she is handcuffed."

"No," Chloe refused curtly. She had two reasons not to check on Chelsea.

One, she didn't want Chelsea to say that Chloe visited her with Vincent or anyone else. She wanted to go out of this case scot-free with the boys.

Two, she didn't know if she could hold the urge to attack Chelsea.

Chloe was a very meek person in real life. She really disliked a fight or even an argument. She also actively tried to avoid them unless necessary, such as in her arguments with Vernon.

However, she doubted she'd be meek and passive in front of her sister after what she did to her mother and four nephews.

Chloe would probably lunge at Chelsea and claw her face to make it even uglier.

"It's better for us not to be in the same room, Officer," Chloe said. "I will visit her once she's been in jail or mental hospital."

Officer Derek nodded, "Anyway, you can go to the hospital three blocks from here. The body of your mother, Mrs. Judith Carlson has been put in the morgue, since she has no living relative that could claim her except you."

Chloe's heart was aching again once the Officer mentioned her mother.

Though she had an estranged relationship with her mother, Chloe always fondly remembered her late mother as a hard worker who tried her best to support her two daughters.

"T—Thank you, Officer. I will check on her as soon as possible," Chloe said. "Can you escort me back to the boys? I want to bring them with me."

"Sure, Ma'am."

They returned to the previous room, and Chloe retrieved the boys.

"Boys, all of you will be with me for some time," Chloe said.

"For sometimes? Can we stay with Aunty forever?" Nathan asked.

"Yes, I want to stay with Aunty!"

"I want to meet Boss Mackie too!"

"W—We can talk about it later. But let's just get you boys a better place to sleep tonight."

"Whoo!"

"Yay!"

"Horrayy!"

The three younger boys were so happy and quickly hugged Aunt Chloe's legs and held her hands.

Meanwhile, Aaron stood straight in front of Aunt Chloe and murmured, "Thank you so much, Aunty."

"All of you are my boys. We're family after all," Chloe said to reassure them all.

She glanced at Officer Derek, who had been standing in silence. There was an oppressive aura around her, "Remember your promise, Officer."

"I will," Officer Derek replied. "But Ma'am, I will not be able to control everyone in here. The best I can do is to hide this for a few days, or maybe a week at most before child protection service asks about these boys, and I will have to tell them that they're in your custody."

"It is fine, a few days is enough for me to handle this," Chloe said. Though that was mostly just wishful thinking. She wished that Vernon could help her in this, mostly with documentation, just like he did for Mackie's document to transfer schools.

"Then, you may leave now, Ma'am," Officer Derek said. "Be careful on your way home."

"Thank you, Officer. I hope this case will be solved as soon as possible, with the right trial for her," Chloe said, though she didn't mention Chelsea's name because the boys were here. "And watch out for that dangerous man. I believe he will do something with his power and influence, probably tamper with evidence."
