A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 880 His Parents Both Have Lovers

Raphael Gill sat down on the seat. "Rae, can I know what happened?"

Rae thought about it for a second and she was sure if she should tell him. It was Mrs Gill’s request to let her keep it as a secret. How could she leak the secret? She shook her head, "Raphael, we have confidentiality regulations!"

"Rae, actually, I know!"

"What?" Rae felt confused.

"I know my mother has a lover!"

Rae was shocked.

"My parents have their own lovers!" Raphael's tone was helpless, sad as well as self - deprecation. "It's disgusting, isn't it?"

Neither did Rae know how to comfort Raphael, nor did she know what to say to Raphael. She could do nothing but only see him suffer. Finally, she walked over gently and put her hand around him.

At that moment, Raphael's body tightened and a light of hope flashed under his eyes. Without thinking too much, he hugged Rae back.

He hugged very tight, Rae was restrained by him and she hardly took a breath.

Raphael didn't release his hand, and he wrapped Rae around tightly.

For a while, neither of them spoke to each other.

Rae felt Raphael's helplessness and hopelessness that moment.

She could understand Mrs Gill's loneliness, but she never thought she could have done this kind of thing. Sometimes people tried to break through their bottom line. However, once they broke it through, they might lose self-control.

Rae sighed deep down in her heart and whispered softly, "Raphael, you can definitely get through it. Everything hasn't gone to the worst part yet, so please cheer up!"

"Rae!" Raphael whispered, "You don't understand, I'm scared!"

Rae was startled because she had never heard Raphael say so, as if he was fearless.

However, in just an instant, Raphael released her and patted her shoulder, "I'm fine. Taking good care of yourself, I should go back home!"

Rae nodded, she still a little worried about him, "You sure you are all right?"

Raphael laughed mockingly, "Of course. I will get through this, as you said!"

Rae took another deep look at him before leaving.

Raphael asked her as soon as she walked to the door, "Rae, do you have time tonight?"

Rae was taken aback.

Raphael explained, "If you are really busy, then forget about it! Actually, I just want to find someone to talk to tonight!"

"I'm not very busy, but I may work overtime. But I will go back home today, Raphael, I will go find you after work!" Rae felt that she should company Raphael this time as a friend. Therefore, she did not refuse his invitation.

When she was about to leave, she turned around and saw a tall figure standing at the door of the reception room. It was Marcel Hopkins. Rae was startled and said, "Hi, Captain Hopkins!"

"Yeah!" She couldn’t read Marcel's emotions right now, but only she could feel he was indifferent. Rae said hello to him, he did not answer her, but just nodded coldly.

Rae looked back at Raphael, and found that Raphael was looking at Marcel.

Then she turned back and looked at Marcel and they were staring at each other.

They two looked at each other, and Rae could tell them were fighting by using their eye sights.

"Rae, you should go to the interrogation room. The upcoming cases are very complicated. Everyone won't go back tonight. I'm afraid your appointment with Mr. Gill needs to be canceled!" Marcel finally said something. But instead of seeing Rae, he looked at Raphael directly when he said it. Rae didn't know if he said this to her or he said it only for Raphael.

Rae didn’t know what to say, and she was not sure if Marcel really wanted them to work overtime, but she could only accept it, "Ok!"

She looked back at Raphael, and her expression was apologetic.

Raphael smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, Rae, we'll meet up when you don't have to work overtime. You must have some free time!"

Rae knew Raphael's words were full of provocation. She secretly took a glance at Marcel, and found that he was still the same, his face was indifferent and gloomy.

Rae felt that it would be better to leave now and to run as far as she could.

After she left.

Marcel didn’t follow her.

Raphael did not rush to leave either.

They two were facing each other and standing there. Marcel was outside the door and Raphael was inside the door.

They didn't speak for a long time, they seemed to have a competition through their eyes.

Finally, Raphael spoke first. "Captain Hopkins, is there anything wrong?"

"Nothing!" Marcel said lightly, "Don’t know Mr. Gill still has time to filter with girls under such a tight schedule!"

"Isn’t Captain Hopkins the same? There are so many urgent cases, and you still have time to worry about girls!" Raphael did not show any weakness. "I don't know if Captain Hopkins heard a phrase called ‘First came, first serve’ before? Rae and I have known each other since childhood and we still are neighbors now!"

Marcel shrugged, "As you don’t sleep in the same room, I guess you don’t have much time to talk alone! I feel like working together would be better right? If I understand correctly, this seems to be called ‘first came, first serve’! "

Raphael put on a serious face, "Then let's see who can get her.”

"Let's wait and see!" Marcel smiled. "But I have to kindly remind you, Mr. Gill. It must be hard for you to deal with problematic parents. This kind of family may not be accepted by the others. I suggest you to hurry up and stabilize Gill's stock. If it is too late, maybe you will lose more. Comparing to you, I only need to focus on work. You still have time to think about girls with so much pressure, I really admire you a lot!"

Raphael blushed, and he couldn’t argue with Marcel.

Marcel showed a confident smile, and turned to leave gracefully.

Raphael stared at Marcel's back, and he frowned for a long time.

Marcel probably was the strongest opponent he ever encountered, and he always knew where the weakest part of the person was.

Rae, Easton Holder, another colleague and a team leader, Garbassi, were all in the meeting room when Marcel came back. Rae thought of things she didn't know, and it was probably because Marcel arranged another group to dig out some other information. So she missed lots of information about Maurice, Braeden Walls, and Sammy.

Marcel walked over her and said to Garbassi, "Take others to the first interrogation room, and then take Braeden to the second interrogation room!"

"Yes!" Garbassi nodded and called to arrange for someone to do it.

Everyone had a 5 minutes emergency meeting in Marcel's office.

"Maurice is not the point, but his testimony can lead us to Braeden! So the point is to figure out the cooperation between Maurice and Braeden. Also, we need to know his relationship with Kaden Duran, Piper Salinas, and Kenzie Salinas. Kaden is the real murderer!"

Everyone felt surprised and shocked when Marcel said that.

Then Marcel said, "He is the man who appeared in Melody Knox's video. There is a red mole in his private part! Arranging a doctor for Kaden to check on him! One more thing, he likes red especially. You

can pay attention to him. He likes to wear red underwear. If a woman wears red underwear, it can stimulate his perverted desire. Therefore, Philippa and Melody were killed by this kind of extremely perverted desire! As for Joanna, I still need some time to confirm her death!"

"But Captain, how did you know?" Garbassi felt that the case couldn’t be called solved if the evidence was not complete yet!

"Now, go look for evidence, pay attention to what Maurice said, and Kaden's private part! Braeden is a conspirator behind everything, and his purpose is to disintegrate the Gill family, he probably knows the relationship between his father and Sammy. So he spent so many years planning everything, with the goal of burying the Gill family alive!"

Marcel's words surprised everyone in the room.

Garbassi and Easton were confused.

Rae was a little convinced.

Marcel said, "Braeden has a pathetic childhood, and his parents didn’t love each other. So he was always covered with shadow. Sammy was the mistress of his father. He saw it and hated him. If he didn't extremely hate the world, how could he possibly sleep with a woman who can be his mother? Garbassi and Easton, you are all men. Can you imagine if you sleep with a woman as old as your mother?"

Marcel's words were so straightforward, even Rae felt blushed.

Both Garbassi and Easton were embarrassed after hearing the question. They didn't expect Marcel ask that kind of questions in front of Rae, so they were very embarrassed and turned to see Rae subconsciously.

Rae turned her face away.

Marcel was still waiting for their answers, "How do you think?"

Easton said, "I, I think if she is beautiful enough, maybe I can be with her!"

Garbassi shook his head directly, "Captain, sorry, I think I don’t think I can do that!"

Marcel nodded, "Our informant found out that Braeden had bought a lot of aphrodisiac drugs over the years. The date he bought them was the day before he was with Sammy. I think he probably was on drugs!"

Rea’s expression kept changing when she heard they discussed it, but she couldn't just walk away.

Marcel said again, "So I thought Braeden was the one who planned everything. He killed Philippa, Melody, and Joanna. Then he blames their deaths to Sammy and Mathew. Also he wants to drag Raphael down to this, then let the whole Gill family go to jail by this! It's just that his game hasn't been fully played out yet, or he is in a hurry, or they didn’t cooperate very well!"

Garbassi nodded. "The deeper the investigation goes, the more suspicious Braeden is! But how can those women fall deep in love with him?"

"It's all about the right way to do it!" Marcel said, "Once a woman falls in love with a man, it must be a crazy love. Sometimes a man only needs to hook his finger, and the women will do whatever for him! There are too many silly women, right, Rae?"

Rae resisted the urge to roll her eyes. She really wanted to stand up and slap in his face. This man was too vicious, and he didn't know how to respect others.

However, Marcel said at this time: "Rae, I didn’t mean to look down on women!"

‘What was wrong with you?’

Rae was speechless.

Both Garbassi and Easton coughed, trying not to laugh.

At this time, Marcel said solemnly, "We have to control Kaden immediately, Garbassi you are on it! Piper's testimony is also very important to us, Rae, you come with me. And Kenzie, she has a lot of things she didn’t say. Easton, please show her the most bloody photos and videos of Joanna, Philippa and Melody’s crime scenes. Remember, the more miserable the better!" Marcel had a very detailed plan.
