Mufron.
The driver was driving the luxury business car.
Casey looked at Luther in the back seat, and Luther's face was full of shock, pain, depression, and
disbelief. Casey did not hear exactly what was said on the phone, but looking at Luther's face alone, he
also knew that something big must have happened. He did not dare to ask.
In the car, everyone felt like the air was getting thinner and thinner.
Gradually, they felt it hard to breathe.
Dead air. They had never seen Luther with such a terrible expression. Casey did not even dare to
breathe.
Luther looked at the dark phone screen and didn't say a word.
Karl hung up the phone, but he could never get back to himself from the call.
His brain already went blank.
Did Grandma pass away? When he left, he had been told the new targeting drugs had worked, and
Grandma's health improved. Her chest water subsided, her pain subsided, and Jamie said she could
live for a long time. Today he was suddenly told that his closest relative passed away.
No matter how he tried, he just could not find a way to contact Joyce, and as it turned out, she was
taken away by the police and put into the detention center.
Joyce was at the scene of the crime and was even listed as a suspect. How was it possible, how was it
all going on?
The worst thing was, neither of Jacqueline and Shelly had ever informed him!
"Luther, what's wrong?" Casey finally couldn't help but ask with concern when he saw Luther's livid face
clouded with gloom.
Luther took a deep breath and sorrow dripped from his voice, "Grandma passed away."
"Ah!" Casey immediately shut up. God, he didn't expect such a big thing to happen to the Warner
family. They came to Mufron for business at such a time, and he was insistent that his boss meets with
Professor Williams.
The business car sped along. They were actually quite far away from the private airport, and it would
take another half hour for them to get there.
Casey privately urged the driver, "Hurry up, it's an emergency."
The driver understood what he meant, step on the gas, and accelerated.
At that moment, Luther's cell phone rang again. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
He picked up his phone and saw that it was Jacqueline calling. He picked up the phone with a blank
face.
Jacqueline and Shelly just got back from the detention center back to the Warner residence, and
Jacqueline rushed to call Luther. It had been nighttime in Mufron and she was afraid that she could not
contact Luther if she did not do it now.
After the call was answered, Jacqueline deliberately squeezed her thigh with great force, and she was
almost sobbing, "Luther, there's some sad news for you. Your grandmother, passed away yesterday,
oooh …"
She was on the phone as if choking up.
"I know you grew up closest to your grandmother. You must not be too sad and you will have to take
care of yourself."
Luther interrupted and asked, "Why didn't you call me yesterday then?"
Jacqueline was stunned. From Luther's tone, it sounded like he already knew? No, who could have told
him?
"Yesterday, yesterday, we were all terrified … then we didn’t even have the time for that. We just got
too many things to deal with, just, just … so we did not tell you." Jacqueline stammered.
"Yes?" On the phone, Luther's voice was almost emotionless.
"Luther, I did not dare to tell you. I was afraid you wouldn't be able to take the shock. I have been
thinking about a better way to tell you the news. Listen to me, don't get excited. Your grandmother died
yesterday afternoon around four o'clock, the police said. It was asphyxiation, and think it could be a
homicide. Joyce was at the crime scene at the time. At that time we rushed back to the house, Joyce
still had a gun in her hand, she held the gun at us, your grandmother was lying on the ground, not
breathing." Jacqueline began to add fuel to the fire, "Later the police came in. They got Joyce and
seized her gun. Hey, I was really scared to death."
