There were two polices in their uniform coming, then they said, “A fire has happened in an abandoned
factory at western suburbs, these were found outside the scene.”
The police gave him a bag with a phone and a suicide note inside.
Stanford’s emotion changed in a moment, then he said coldly, “What do you mean?”
“Based on our preliminary judgement, the fire was set by your wife and the reason was to commit
suicide,” the police said.
Stanford couldn’t believe it, he almost couldn’t breathe. ‘Suicide? She had committed suicide? It’s
impossible!’
He stretched out his arm and took the things from the police, it was exactly her phone. Then, there was
a letter, it was exactly her writing as well when he opened it.
A message was written in the letter: Stanford, my life feels meaningless without you. Goodbye, nope,
we shall never meet again!
His body became stiff, there was a tremor in his voice that he didn’t realize, “Where is my wife now?”
“The scene was seriously damaged, we didn’t find your wife,” the police said, “Now we need to know
that is there a conflict in marriage occurring between you and your wife? Which has probably caused
your wife to commit suicide?”
Stanford didn’t answer the police, he took the phone and went outside immediately.
“Eh…”
“Please ask me if you have any questions.” Atwood walked toward the polices.
Lindsay glanced at Atwood, then she chased after Stanford and went outside.
Stanford drove his car back to the villa, then he pushed the door open, inside the house was empty. He
trotted inside, everything remained the same as when he left. Nothing was moved, the only thing that
was moved by someone, was the divorce settlement agreement on the table!
He walked there, her name was written on the signature part of the agreement.
‘She…’
‘She had signed it?’
‘Wasn’t it that she was unwilling to sign it?’
Stanford flopped down on the sofa, his brain was buzzing and going blank.
“Stanford.” Lindsay walked inside and stood in front of him, “You have divorced Amanda, whether she
is dead or still alive, it has nothing to do with you anymore.”
Stanford raised his head slowly and looked at Lindsay, “Nothing to do with me?”
“Yes, you’ve married her just because you want to take revenge on her.” Lindsay squatted down in front
of him, “Have you forgotten how your mum had died? No matter how is she now, it has nothing to do
with you, or do you really have feelings for her? Don’t forget that she is your enemy!”
“I don’t forget!” Stanford clenched his fists tightly. Even until now, he could still remember the scene
when his mum died. She was working as a babysitter at the Nelson family’s home during that time,
then she had died shortly afterwards.
During that time, two more people were sitting in the same car with his mum, but both of them were
fine, only his mum had died.
He had knelt in front of his dad beside the corpse and asked him to bring his mum to justice. However,
his dad had accepted the huge amount of compensation given by the Nelson family, so he didn’t hold
the person who had caused his mum’s death to account!
“Stanford, have you forgotten of your mum’s suffering when she raised you alone in the rural area since
you were young? When life finally improved, your dad had abandoned her again. Have you forgotten of
the suffering that she had gone through? Initially, she thought that she can take care of her once you
grow up, but she was then killed by someone. Do you really want to pity the person that had caused
her death?”
Stanford looked away from Lindsay, “No, I don’t.”
He was saying this without confidence, he also didn’t know why he was unhappy at all even though he
had taken revenge on her.
“You have divorced her, it has nothing to do with you, no matter how she is. Stanford, don’t let your
mum feel restless in the grave.” Lindsay was always talking about his mum because she knew about
his love for his mum.
Or else he wouldn’t have planned for so long, just to avenge her death!
Stanford took the agreement from the table, then he pulled the drawer open and put it inside. ‘She’s
right, we’re not related to each other anymore. How is she now, has nothing to do with me.’
‘Nothing!’
He composed himself, “Let’s go back to the company.”
Lindsay said, “Okay.”
When they were back at the company, the two polices had not left yet.
“Based on her personality, she definitely won’t commit suicide, please investigate it carefully.” Atwood
knew Amanda well, she wouldn’t commit suicide even if Stanford divorced her.
“Of course, we will find out the truth,” the police said.
At this moment, Stanford walked toward them. He was 1.85 meters tall, his shoulders were broad, his
waist was slim and his legs were long. He was dressed in a classic black suit which fitted him well and
made his body outline look more obvious.
“I have divorced her already, everything about her has nothing to do with me now. Whether she is dead
or still alive, has nothing to do with me too. Please don’t ask me anything about her anymore.” Stanford
looked coldly at Atwood after saying this, “Send them away.”
He walked toward his office after he finished his words.
The two polices looked at each other, then they looked toward Atwood, “Did he really divorce his wife
already?”
After all, the grand wedding ceremony with the handsome groom and the pretty bride during that time
had made many people admire them.
But now their marriage had ended in divorce, and the wife had committed suicide?
Atwood nodded, “Yes, they have gotten divorced.”
The polices had roughly gotten the idea, so they went back to the police station and reported to the
superiors.
Stanford had purposely ignored this matter, he was now busy with the integration of the companies, so
he had devoted all his time to his work.
When the big fire was put out at the scene, two corpses were found in the ruin.
After the investigation, they were one male and one female.
The identity of the female corpse was verified as Amanda, while the identity of the male corpse was not
yet verified.
When this news was out, everyone was guessing, ‘Was it because Amanda had cuckolded Stanford,
then she had committed suicide for love with the adulterer.’
Thus, the sensational wedding ceremony in the past had become a huge joke now.
In the Mercy Vale Hospital.
There were bandages on Amanda’s face, her whole body couldn’t move too. She was staring at the
television’s screen and her eyes were full of hate.
“Why did you ask me to change the DNA of the female corpse to yours? Why do you want to let
everyone think that you’re dead?” Casimir Bailey was talking inarticulately. He had lived abroad for
many years and he had just come back not long before, so he couldn’t speak fluently.
Amanda’s eyes fell on Casimir, “Do you think that I will commit suicide?”
Casimir shook his head, “Life is so precious, only idiots will give up life.”
“I’ve let you purposely fake the scene that I’m dead because I want to let those people who hurt me
lower their guard.” So that she would have the chance to take back everything that she had lost.
She was the only daughter of the Nelson family and she had grown up with her dad’s protection. When
she was eighteen years old, her parents had given her all the shares of WY Group.
Andrew didn’t like to go into business, so he had entered the armed forces since long time ago and
joined a secret organization, even she also couldn’t get to contact him.
When Joshua was twelve years old, Mr. Adams had passed away. After that, he had gone to City C to
live with Armand and Theresa, then he inherited the JK Group when he grew up, so he would seldom
come back.
Hence, everything which belonged to the Nelson family was given to her, but she had lost them.
She couldn’t let her dad’s hard work fall into other people’s hands, or else she felt so sorry for the love
from her parents.
There was respect in Casimir’s eyes when looking at Amanda, she was in such a bad situation now,
but she was still thinking so much about it.
“Don’t worry, I’ll help you.” Casimir comforted her, “Take care of yourself first, you’re seriously injured.”
Amanda nodded, and then she asked, “Have you found your dad’s whereabouts?”
“Not yet.” He was searching for him blindly; he had no clue at all. The only thing that he knew was that
his dad was staying domestically, and he was in City B.
He really couldn’t get to find his dad with only this clue.
He knew Amanda from his work, saving her was also just a coincidence.
“By the way, why are there two corpses found at the scene?” Amanda didn’t know whether it was
related to her.
“I’ll help you to investigate about it, I also have no idea of who they are,” Casimir said.
“To what extent does your mum despise you, so she had given you the name Casimir?” Amanda
couldn’t imagine that a mother would give her child a name that meant destroyer of peace.
“What does it mean?” Casimir didn’t understand the meaning of the word.
“You can Google it,” Amanda said gently.

couldn't imagine that a mother would give her child a name that meant destroyer of peace.
