My Second Husband novel Chapter 189

Amos' small shout immediately attracted Eudora and Harley's attention. They quickly put their thoughts away.

"Here!" Amos pointed to a position on the screen. "Zoom in here!"

Harley immediately followed as told. After zooming in, he saw a large trash bin on the screen. A garbage collector was taking out the trash.

Harley was stunned. "You mean, someone took Juju out in a trash can?"

"That's the only possibility!" Amos said. "And, as far as I know, garbage collectors usually don't come around this time!"

"Yes!" Harley exclaimed, making sense of the situation. "Amos, you're pretty good at this stuff. I suddenly feel that you are more suitable to be a policeman than I am! I am going to find out who that person is right now."

"I'm coming with you!" Eudora said hurriedly.

"No, I think it'll be better that you stay here!" Harley Louis said. "You'll scare them away if there are too many of us. It's not worth it."

Eudora's growing anxiety for Juju clouded her mind. After thinking about it, she nodded her head.

After Harley left, only Eudora and Amos were left in the room. Amos pursed his lips and said after a long time, "Don't worry, everything will be alright!" While they were talking, Harley had brought over the garbage collector. Seeing that there were two more people in the room, she said hurriedly, "I don't know! I don't know anything!"

Harley grabbed her wrist, "Be honest!"

The woman couldn't run away, so she turned around and said, "I swear, I don't know anything!"

Harley ignored her and quickly opened the trash bin. At a glance, Eudora saw a hairclip in the bin. It was Juju's!

"Where is the girl?" Harley's eyes darkened, and he snarled. "Where did you bring her to?"

The garbage collector was scared out of her wits. "What girl? I'm just a garbage collector!"

"Why is there a hairclip in the trash can then? Don't play dumb with me! Otherwise, I'll arrest you and bring you to the police station!"

As soon as she heard that they were going to the police station, the garbage collector finally panicked. "Well, I'll tell you, don't send me to the police!"

"Then spill it!" Harley said. "Once you tell me, I won't send you to the police station."

The garbage collector said, "It's a guy. He said he's the school's gardener. Since there're so many flowers in the parterre, he wanted to sell some of them, but he was afraid of being discovered. He told me as long as I put them in my trash bin and took it out, he would give me 5,000 dollars as a reward."

"You are lying!" Harley's eyes widened, and the garbage collector was scared to death. "I'm telling the truth. The garden is currently under renovation. You can go and have a look!"

Harley snorted. "Of course I'll do that."

Harley swiftly went out, and after a while, he brought back another man. "Is this him?"

The garbage collector was stunned. "Not this gardener..."

"There's only one gardener. Think about it properly and tell me."

"It's really not him. That guy is shorter and looks a little thinner. He was wearing a mask and a hat..."

At this point, everything seemed clear. Someone must have kidnapped Juju. In order not to expose himself, he had hired the gardener and the garbage collector as part of his fraud.

Of course, Eudora and Amos also thought of this, and hence they looked even more worried. Who knew what happened to Juju after she was kidnapped?

The garbage collector was about to leave when Harley stopped her. "You're not allowed to leave. Follow me to the police station and assist in the investigation."

Then, he turned to look at Eudora and Amos. "I'll help you make a report, and I'll start the investigation right away."

Eudora's heart was uneasy, and she felt that something was off.

When she was hesitating whether to nod or not, her cell phone suddenly rang, and she hurried to answer her phone. There was a very strange voice from the other end.
