Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 627

Jimmy was always on high alert, so he had never drunk any water and food given by strangers. Although Kobi was someone he knew quite well, he could not help suspecting him.

"I'm not thirsty."

Jimmy said impassively.

A light then flashed across Kobi's eyes, for Jimmy was much more vigilant, and harder to cope with, in comparison to the dim-witted Kevin.

Suppressing the emotions in his heart, Kobi tried to think of a way to trick Jimmy.

Now that Jimmy was already here today, he must not fail in his plan.

Otherwise, he would be in danger next time.

Since Jimmy refused to drink the tea, then he could only find another way...

Kobi's silence seemed to suggest something. Jimmy glanced at the tea on the table and got up. "Since you don't know where Nicole is, then forget it. At least we know that she's still alive."

With that, Jimmy turned and left.

Kobi then stood up and followed him. "I'll walk you out."

The two of them went to the door, and Jimmy swallowed the words that were stuck in his throat. He really wanted to ask his Kobi whether he really knew Kevin...

But if he asked, Kobi would definitely fall out with him.

While he was hesitating in his heart, he didn't notice what was happening behind him. All of a sudden, he was struck by Kobi's iron rod.

A loud bang instantly exploded in his ears.

Shocked, he staggered a few steps and slowly fell down along the wall in dizziness.

After Kobi threw away the rod in his hand with a poker face, he dragged Jimmy in and closed the door. Squatting down in front of the man, he said, "You chose not to drink that glass of tea, so don't blame me for using this method to knock you out."

"W-What are you going to do?"

Jimmy used his last bit of strength to ask the question before he passed out completely.

With a sneer, Kobi replied, "You'll find out soon."

Once he finished his words, he put on a stolid expression, and his unfathomable gaze instilled fear in Jimmy.

Kobi would definitely do something horrible once he fainted.

Just then, he heard the man's ghost- like voice lingering around. "Come... Come and kill me..."

Jimmy thus got up and walked toward his room step by step.

Standing behind Kobi who was cleaning the room, he thrust a knife into his body and hurriedly cleaned the spot afterward.

When Emily opened her eyes, she smelled a strong smell of blood.

Why would there be blood?

What was going on?

Why did she smell blood here?

Just before she went limp, she saw one man who stabbed the other person with a knife.

Stunned, she screamed with her eyes wide open, "Ah..."

"J-Jimmy is murdering someone!"

Something would happen in the Hudson Family.

It was nine o'clock in the evening.

Ariah and Jimmy's parents were very anxious.

Jimmy promised to come back soon, but he was still nowhere to be seen after two to three hours had passed, and he could not be contacted as well.

He did not answer his phone no matter how many times they called him.

"Why couldn't I get through to him? If he has something to do, he can always tell us on the phone," said Ella anxiously.

Upon pondering for a while, Mack responded, "Well, I guess he won't come back today."

Then, he turned to look at Ariah. "It's getting late. You should go home first. Sorry for troubling you today."

"No, it's no trouble at all." Ariah shook her head. "We are a family."

He then nodded with a smile. "I'll ask the driver to send you home."

"No, I can..."

"It's too late. I'm worried about you. Let the driver send you home," Mack insisted.

Ariah had no choice but to agree. "Alright."

When Mack called for the driver, Ariah got up and followed him out. Just then, they saw a police car driving toward them, which make her shudder.

Why was there a police car here...

Plus, that was not Jimmy's car.

She knew the two people who got out of the car: David and Director Sherlock.

Why did they come here in person?

The suspicion in Ariah's heart thus grew heavier. It wasn't until the two of them got closer that she saw the gloomy expressions on their faces.

"David, why are you here with Director Sherlock?" inquired Ariah.

David glanced at her and paused for a while before he continued, "Ariah, we have something to tell you..."

"What is it?"

David hesitated as he was worried whether she could bear the truth.

Trying to compose herself, Ariah asked, "Just say it. Is it about Emily?"

The lady had not returned yet, and she did not answer their calls either.

"Emily?" David shook his head. "N-No... it's about Jimmy..."

Jimmy?

Ariah's heart tightened, "What's wrong with him?"

Her response made David even more hesitant.

"Tell me now!"

"Calm down." Director Sherlock sighed and took a step forward. "Let's go in first. I will explain this slowly..."

Ariah's intuition told her that something extremely serious must have happened, or else Director Sherlock would not have come over. She believed that Jimmy must be in grave danger now.

Staring straight at Director Sherlock, she asked, "Was Jimmy injured? Was it because of Kevin?"

Pausing for a while, Director Sherlock then shook his head. "No, Jimmy was not injured."

Upon hearing that, Ariah immediately heaved a long sigh of relief.

"Jimmy murdered someone."

The words caused Ariah to freeze on the spot. She laughed as if she had heard a joke, "Director Sherlock, was that a joke?"

Jimmy killed someone?

That was impossible!

Jimmy would never do that unless the opponents were dangerous criminals.

Director Sherlock pursed his lips and his face became very serious. As if he could see what Ariah was thinking, he said directly, "The man he killed was... Kobi."

Who was that?

Kobi? Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Taking two steps back in disbelief, she forced a smile and said, "Did you two make a mistake today?"

Jimmy had killed Kobi. Why would he do that?

That was utterly ridiculous.

Although the news came from Director Sherlock and David, she still did not believe it because it was too ridiculous.

"Sherlock, what did you say?"

Suddenly, she heard Mack's voice behind her.

He came out after being informed by the driver who realized that something was not right.
