Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 591

Henry only answered one sentence. "Married for six years, slept in separate rooms for six years.”

But the message was very obvious. They had slept in different rooms since they were married and that clearly showed that they had no feelings for each other.

Since there were no feelings, how did they understand each other?

When the male police officer finally reacted, he touched the tip of his nose which indicated that he understood, and then he asked, "So Mr. Lancaster, do you know what this list means?”

Henry looked at him. "You mentioned that organization. Does Jacqueline have something to do with that organization?"

The male police officer explained, "Yes, someone made a report and provided this list. Everyone on this list is a special outsider of the organization. They invested a lot of money to make the organization have enough funds to buy poison powder and sell it at a high price to earn huge profits."

Sue covered her mouth in horror. "Doesn't that mean taking advantage of others’ misfortune? Jacqueline really took advantage of others' misfortune?"

The male police officer said sighed, "Yes, we've verified this list and found that it’s true. Miss Conrad has been in the organization for several years and she has hundreds of millions of investments. You can imagine how many families have been destroyed in the country because of her."

Henry clenched his teeth. "I'm sorry, I don't know about this.”

"It's alright, Mr. Lancaster. In fact, we didn't know this either before we got the list, but it's not too late now. S o the purpose of our visit this time is to take Miss Conrad back for investigation, but we couldn't locate Miss Conrad, so we're here to ask you, Mr. Lancaster." The male police officer looked at Henry.

Henry made a gesture to Joe directly.

Joe stood up. "We don’t know about Jacqueline's whereabouts yet. Before this, Jacqueline made Mr. Lancaster upset because of tax evasion and Mr. Lancaster locked her up. After being locked up, we found that Jacqueline wasn't in the right mental state, so we didn't let her out. We were afraid that she’d hurt people after coming out.”

"Wait a minute!" The male police officer frowned and interrupted him, "You said that Jacqueline wasn't in the right mental state. Did she take that?”

As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked.

Henry’s eyes burst out with chills. "I don't really know. We didn't know that she was involved in that kind of business in the first place, so we wouldn’t think about her taking that kind of thing. We just thought that she wasn't in the right mental state because she suffered from cyberbullying.”

The male police officer nodded. "I wouldn't rule this out, but I would prefer Miss Conrad to have taken that kind of thing. As far as we know, if you want to join that organization and earn huge profits, you must first commit a crime."

Sue didn’t quite understand. "What do you mean?"

Joe explained, "It means that if Jacqueline wants to join the organization to make money, she must take drugs and get addicted to them. This way, they won’t betray the organization and the organization won’t be afraid of being betrayed because they're all on the same side.”

The male police officer speculated, "Yes, I suspect that Miss Conrad must have taken the drugs because this gentleman said that after they locked Miss Conrad up, they found out that she wasn't in the right mental state. Perhaps she was addicted to drugs but couldn’t take any when she was locked up, leading her to mental disorder."

Although the speculation wasn’t necessarily true, everyone on the spot chose to believe it.

Sue looked at Henry. "Maybe she did take them, sir."

Henry didn't answer but only looked at Joe.

Joe understood. He took a step forward and handed the mobile phone to the male police officer.

"We told you that we don't know Jacqueline's whereabouts. In fact, Jacqueline ran away on her own tonight. We’re looking for her too. She called Mr. Lancaster earlier and Mr. Lancaster recorded the call. I was going to locate her and bring her back because she wasn't in the right mental state. We're afraid that she'll make trouble outside this time."

The male police officer said seriously, "In that case, we understand, Mr. Lancaster. We'll report the situation and send someone to arrest Jacqueline. I hope that M r. Lancaster will cooperate with us too. If there's any news about Jacqueline, please inform us as soon as possible."

Henry nodded slightly. "I know, I’ll fully cooperate."

"Thank you, Mr. Lancaster." The male police officer stood up and called the female police officer who was taking notes. After they saluted Henry, they turned and walked towards the door.

Sue followed them and brought them out.

Soon, the door closed again and Joe sighed, "I can’t believe that Jacqueline is so bold to get involved in this."

Henry stared at him unhappily. "Didn’t I ask you to investigate what Jacqueline did in the past six years? Why didn't you find out about this matter?"

Joe felt that the abyss was staring at him and he couldn't help but shudder "Mr. Lancaster, it's not that I didn't manage to find this, but I didn't think of this at

all, so naturally..."
