Johanna, however, refused to believe it.
She only believed what she had seen. The investigation results pointed to the Fuller family—how could it not be related to them?
Unless… Stephan was trying to protect the Fuller family.
She was heartbroken, her eyes reddening as she asked, "Stephan, is it because of Ms. Fuller that you're no longer pursuing the murderer who killed Archie?"
He didn't respond.
The investigation had marked the Fuller family as a 'suspect', which meant there was no solid proof linking them to the crime.
Based on his usual methods, if someone appeared on his suspect list, he always believed in killing, even if there was a mistake, rather than letting anyone go free.
So, why hadn't he acted against the Fuller family yet?
He could deceive others but not himself.
It was because Felicia also shared the same last name.
Stephan stood tall and unmoving in the shadowed area, his voice cold, deep, and slow. "I will find out the truth in three days at most."
Three days?
Johanna only felt like sneering.
She couldn't even wait three hours, wanting nothing more than to wipe out the Fuller residence, tie up every Fuller family member, and kill them all!
Why would she have to wait another three days?
What if Stephan still couldn't find evidence? Would Archie have died for nothing?
Dizziness clouded her vision, and she wasn't sure if it was a side effect of the concussion or from her agitation.
However, she held it back.
