C49 Love or Not?
"The person who made the transfer is Lydia."
The servant's voice sounded from the other end of the line. "Reece's face turned ashen. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I am. We even found the relevant bank to retrieve the video of Lydia making the transfer."
"Give me the video."
"Yes."
Reece hung up the phone, his face ashen.
Lydia?
The person who made the transfer was actually Lydia.
He didn't expect that the final result of this matter would be this.
Ding dong! A notification popped up on his phone.
Reece found a good place to park his car and turned on the video.
After watching the video, his face was as cold as if he was about to eat someone.
Reece dialed a number. "Loran, send me a video to see if there are any editing. Give me a reply in ten minutes."
"No! Don't hang up. I want to know if there are any editing in the video!"
"Uh... Oh, okay!"
The man's voice was too cold. Loran, who was still drinking, was stunned for a moment, but he quickly put down his glass and walked out of the room.
The third floor was a place for him to rest when he was tired.
It was one of his many resting spots.
He sat in the room and turned on the computer.
Loran contacted someone to do a technical review of the video that Reece sent him.
Ten minutes later.
"Sixth Brother, there is no editing in the video," Loran said.
Loran's voice sounded from the other end of the line. Reece frowned slightly. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm very sure." Loran nodded.
Immediately, Reece's voice disappeared from the microphone.
Even from the screen, Loran could feel the coldness radiating from the man.
Loran pursed his lips and glanced at the video that was playing on the computer.
He took a deep breath and broke the dead silence, “Brother Liu, Lydia shouldn’t be so stupid as to let you investigate what happened back then and leave behind the evidence of the transfer of money?”
He had always disliked her.
However, it was all because she was too reckless in the past.
But today, it was a matter of life and death. Loran could tell which was more important.
He would not lose his mind just because he disliked someone.
Reece looked at the video on the screen and narrowed his eyes. His eyes were filled with coldness. "...Indeed, anyone would be stupid enough to put the blame on someone. This matter is getting more and more suspicious."
"Yeah, we've been investigating for a long time, but the only evidence we found was proof that Ava was the culprit."
"There are too many pieces of evidence to prove her innocence," Reece said, frowning. "There's so much evidence that I can't believe that she's the culprit."
At this moment, he was even more confident in Lydia.
He realized that someone had schemed against that woman, and that woman was innocent.
"This matter has already been investigated and turned back to the original point. What should we do now? Where should we start from?"
Reece snapped out of his thoughts and took a deep puff from his cigarette. He recalled the conversation he had with Lydia that day and let out a puff of smoke. "Check out the relationship between Amelia and Viola."
Viola?
Why did he suddenly mention Viola?
Loran was puzzled, but as long as it was something that Reece ordered, he would do it. "Alright, I got it."
After putting away the phone, Reece took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand. His eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
If someone had really planned this scheme behind his back, who was it?
Who was the one who set up this trap for her? And who was the one who dragged him into it?
No matter how he looked at it, this matter was directed at that woman.
Although he had yet to find out who was behind all this, his heart suddenly brightened up. That woman might be innocent.
Lydia was not the one who had harmed Maria.
Looking out through the glass window, Reece could not help but smile.
When he realized that he was happy, he was stunned.
Loran's words instantly filled his mind with Loran's words, saying that his sixth brother had fallen in love with Ava.
"..."
At night.
Reece drove back home.
He entered her room, but the floor was empty.
No one?
Where was she?
Why didn't she come home at this hour? What was she doing?
A hint of irritation surged in his heart, but it was only for a moment before it was replaced by indifference.
It was already 12 o'clock in the evening.
The man, who had been looking down at the magazine, glanced up at the empty floor and frowned.
He was sure that he was going to fall asleep again if the woman wasn't home!
Damn it!
At this moment, footsteps came from downstairs.
The door opened and a strong smell of alcohol wafted into the room.
Had she drunk?
Just as he was thinking about it, the woman threw her bag to the side and slumped onto the floor. She fell asleep immediately.
Seeing the woman's back, Reece frowned even more.
The two of them fell asleep with their backs to each other.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning split the dark night into two, followed by raindrops.
"No... No."
The woman on the floor suddenly let out a painful moan. Her voice was filled with fear and sobbing.
Reece woke up from his stupor.
This time, he did not move forward.
He just stared at the woman on the bed quietly and did not move.
He could not care for her, nor could he sympathize with her!
He couldn't.
He couldn't let this woman easily affect his emotions.
"Ugh..." The woman curled up in pain and cried, "Uhh... Don't come over, don't come over!!!"
The woman started to weep again as she desperately gestured with her hands in the air.
The man looked at her and felt extremely irritated.
He turned around and wanted to continue sleeping, but the woman suddenly raised her hand and was about to hit her cheek. "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, please don't do that to me anymore!"
Reece's pupils suddenly contracted when he saw this.
He suddenly stood up.
He rushed over at his fastest speed and grabbed her hand, not allowing her to hurt him.
However, the woman raised her other hand again.
He had no choice but to lie down and hold her tightly with both hands.
He couldn't help but frown as he looked at the woman sobbing in his arms.
In the end, he was still led by her emotions and couldn't control himself.
"Uuu..." Lydia shook in fear.
If it wasn't for Reece holding her down, she would've been able to injure herself to the point of being covered in wounds.
What was this woman dreaming about?
She looked like she was being bullied and her face was filled with despair and pain.
He had never seen her like this before.
"An..." He opened his mouth and was about to wake her up, but in the end, he resisted the urge.
If he woke her up, she would probably get insomnia.
In order not to let Lydia hurt him, he hugged her tightly.
A few minutes later, the woman stopped crazily hurting him, but she was still crying in agony. It was only after a long time that she finally fell asleep.
Under the moonlight, Reece's eyes were filled with complicated emotions as he looked at the woman's delicate face.
His mind was repeating what Loran had said in the morning.
Sixth Bro, you fell in love with her.
Sixth Bro, you fell for her!
He frowned and shook his head, wanting to shake off this devil-like voice, but it soon rang again.
Did he fall in love?
He lowered his gaze and looked at the woman again. "Are you in love or not?"
