The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2379

The police officer spoke again.

“That car is nearly scrapped. We have investigated Mrs. Quinn Ferguson’s latest activities and call records. She has contacted an unfamiliar number from abroad, but it’s a temporary number. We’ve started tracking it. If you have any clues, you can provide them to us.”

Nicole nodded.

Her expression was very complicated. She felt sorry for what happened to Quinn, but she could not think of Quinn’s purpose for doing this.

“Have you met Mrs. Quinn Ferguson recently?”

The police officer asked.

Nicole shook her head. “No, I don’t have any contact with her privately.”

The police officer nodded.

“Well, we have no other questions for now, so you two can leave.”

Clayton thanked him and helped Nicole get up.

“Were you scared?”

Clayton touched Nicole’s forehead.

Nicole shook her head. “I just can’t figure it out.”

The couple went out and got into the car.

Clayton paused. “Why don’t we go to the hospital to check it out? Mr. Ferguson may know more than us.”

Nicole did not think too much about it and nodded.

Soon, they arrived at the hospital.

Quinn was still placed in the best ward of the hospital.

However, it was cold inside. Quinn was lying unconscious on the hospital bed, and no one else was there.

Just as Nicole was about to say something, she saw Eric walking over from a distance holding his phone. He looked serious and indifferent without a trace of sadness in his eyes.

It was as if the person who got into the accident was not his family member.

Looking at the two people at the door, Eric frowned slightly. However, he quickly regained his composure.

“You’re here.”

Eric was not at all surprised by their arrival.

He took them to the living room inside the VIP ward.

Clayton glanced around and said in a calm voice, “The police told us that Mrs. Ferguson stole Nicole’s car. I think you owe us an explanation, right?”

Eric glanced at him with dark eyes before he glanced at Nicole.

He did not even dare to take another look at Nicole for fear of revealing any redundant emotions.

Eric looked away and quickly regained his composure.

“As you can see, she did this to herself. I will compensate for Nicole’s car and get her the latest model of the same brand.”

Clayton chuckled lightly.

“Is that all? Shouldn’t you give us an explanation? We don’t just want a car.”

Nicole nodded and took a deep breath.

“Eric, I don’t even know why your mother came to my office out of the blue. She even drove away my car and got into an accident. You need to explain this to the police as well, right? Isn’t it weird?”

The silence in the air made the time drag on.

Eric was very reluctant to let another person know about this scandal.

Even if Eric found something that the police did not, he did not intend to say it.

He just wanted to close the case in the simplest way possible.

However, Nicole’s question made him feel ashamed.

Eric stood up and walked to the window. He was tall and indifferent.

He thought that this situation was ridiculous and out of control.

The cold wind blew in, dissipating the tension and staleness in the air.

Soon, Eric finally said in a low voice, “Someone tampered with that car, not my mother. But she knew about it and drove the other car away so that you’ll drive the tampered car. Unexpectedly, she drove the wrong car and got into a car accident. That’s all I know.”

Nicole sat there in shock. Her back was stiff and straight.

How come?

Nicole and Quinn had not seen each other for so long, but Quinn still hated herself so much.
