Chapter 66 The Real Dead Man Doesn't Tell Stories
- When Julian got back, he noticed Susan sitting on the couch with a distressed look on her face. Susan said, "Julian, you..." as soon as she spotted Julian. Julian, however, interrupted her before she could finish since he already understood her question. "I did ask Seth to help me with the investigation." He took a seat next to Susan on the couch and went on, "Seth says Richard Jenkins has a severe brain condition. I'm still trying to figure out what killed him, but I already have a general idea of what happened." "Okay." Susan's cheeks turned pale as she nodded.
- Julian gave her a head pat. "It will be a difficult battle if the Jenkins decide to take this to court. I must thus gather as much evidence as I can and get the greatest attorney for you. I'll try my best to assist you, Susan, so don't worry too much." Susan pressed her lips thin and said, "Don't worry, Julian. I don't need you to do a lot for me. I'll take the penalty if I am the murderer. She was so overcome with terror at the time of the tragedy that all she wanted to do was flee the situation. But now that she had calmed down, she was prepared to face the repercussions if she was indeed the killer.
- Julian's eyes narrowed, but he remained silent. "Don't worry," he whispered, pulling her into a close embrace and kissing the top of her head. I refuse to give in to their demands.

Julian knew it was the calm before the storm, but for the moment everything appeared to be tranquil.
