My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1800

Adrienne giggled. "The purpose of a person's life is to eat well and live well. These all have something to do with money... In other words, money makes the world go round."

Jefferson glared at her and sighed. "I've known you for more than 20 years, but I never knew that you were so good at coming up with excuses."

Adrienne did not take his fierce eyes seriously. "I've been with you for so long. Naturally, I've picked up a thing or two from you."

Adrienne did not care that much about money in the past, but she had to care about it at present. To find out the truth behind her parents' murder, she needed money.

Although she might not be able to find anything with money, she would be even more helpless to try to get anything done without money.

Albert did not give her any useful clues, but from what he told her, she knew that there must be something behind the murder of her parents. It was very likely that Albert knew about it.

Adrienne's father's relationship with Albert had always been good, and they had been close friends for many years. When Hodge fell ill after finding out about Adrienne's parents' death, she didn't know what to do. It was Albert who stepped forward to help her take care of her parents' funeral.

Adrienne thought that logically, Albert should come out to testify since he knew the truth since Albert and her father had been so close. But instead of that, Albert used it to threaten her... Did that mean there was a bigger power behind the case? So powerful that even Albert could not afford to offend that person?

What kind of person could make Albert cower like this?

Was there such a figure in Chatterton Town?

Two years ago, Adrienne had checked through people who were around her parents, but she found no motive from anyone. During these years, her parents had no grudges with anyone, nor did they have any fights with anyone. They were pretty much the model citizens of the town.

If it were an impulse murder, the murderer would not have chopped up the body and there was no way the murderer would have left no clues. Hence, she guessed that the murderer must have planned everything out.

Since she couldn't find any clues from the people around her parents, perhaps she could investigate people around Albert to get clues.

"Ring, ring, ring-"

The mobile phone in her pocket suddenly rang, which scared her. She was stunned and then took out her mobile phone. It was a call from her team. She immediately answered, "Linette, what's wrong?"

Jefferson couldn't hear what was being said on the other end of the phone, but Adrienne's expression suddenly became solemn. She said, "I'll head over right now."

She hung up the phone and looked at Jefferson. "There's a murder case again. I will have to go there now."

"Tell me the address," Jefferson replied.

"I can take a taxi," Adrienne said.

"Did I ask you for your opinion?" Jefferson's tone was still as overbearing as usual. Adrienne knew that his temper was rising again, hence she had to tell him the address obediently.
