Lawrence's handwriting was pretty good. He wrote two sentences. Then, he picked up the piece of paper and handed it to Jensen.
Jensen accepted it and stared at the paper. There were two questions written on the piece of paper.
"How can you be so sure that she loves me? Doesn't she love Timothy?"
Jensen read the questions.
He sighed inwardly. It seemed that Uncle Jones really could not live without love. Love seemed to be a priority to him.
It was love.
He was still thinking about love even at such an old age. He asked about nothing but love. Jensen did not know if he should admire him or not. He only felt speechless.
He looked at Lawrence who looked at him with hopeful eyes. Then, he opened his mouth and said, "Uncle Jones, do you want to know one bad thing about yourself? It's that you believe other people's words. The two of you have been together for so long. So, why are you still being so suspicious of her? If you really love her, then you should trust her. However, it seems like you just can't trust her. Look, your suspicion has led to this kind of ending."
Lawrence suddenly became dejected.
Jensen said, "Uncle Jones, Candace is already dead. Why do you still care about your love? Is it really that important?"
Lawrence's shoulders dropped.
It was as if his soul had been sucked out of him and he had lost his vigour.
"I have no idea why the two of you have to come to this point. Candace is already dead. Do you want to live the rest of your life without resistance? Do you want to live your life selfishly?" "Deep down, the two of you have never cared about your own children. You've never thought about their future. You only care about your own feelings. Don't you think the two of you were a little too self-absorbed?"
Lawrence did not say anything.
When Jensen saw his expression, he sighed and continued, "Uncle Jones, if Candace loved Timothy, she would not have gotten together with Anderson and would not have gotten together with you. I've already concluded that she loved you. So, please do not doubt me. I'm sorry, I have to get
back to work. I'm going to leave now."
After that, Jensen walked out.
Lawrence watched as Jensen walked away. He opened his mouth, but still could not say a word.
After Jensen came out, he found his subordinate and said, "I want you to arrange for two people to keep an eye on Lawrence when he leaves this place."
"Boss, are you going to release him?"
"Yes, he can leave. He did not murder Candace, so we have to let him go," Jensen said.
"According to procedures, we cannot detain him." His subordinate also agreed with this arrangement.
When Jensen returned to his office, he saw Timothy at a glance.
"Mr. Yarbrough, what are you still doing here?"
He did not expect Timothy to still be there.
"I would like to know of Lawrence's current whereabouts?" Timothy asked, "Just now, you mentioned that the report states that Candace committed suicide. Does that mean that you are going to release Lawrence?"
"Yes, he can leave. He is not the murderer. So, there is no need for him to stay." Jensen said, "Rest assured, we will not let him go if he was the murderer. However, we will not wrongly convict an innocent person. He can't leave Northern City for the time being. He must stay and cooperate with our investigation when called upon."
Timothy thought for a while and said with a frown, "However, I don't think I'm innocent. I mean, I had the motive to kill Candace. I'm not innocent because I had a motive."
"But Mr. Yarbrough, I doubt anyone would be able to stay rational at that time." Jensen said, "Think about it, their emotional entanglement, your emotional entanglement, you, Heinz, Grace. All of you played a part in Candace's suicide. That includes me. We are all responsible. We did not foresee this. So, we can't blame anyone now."
