Edith stared at the photograph in the frame with a dazed expression. She did not expect that the photo would turn out really good. In the photograph, she was seated on a chair while Neil stood behind her with his arms wrapped around her shoulders. 

In the picture, she was looking shyly at the camera while Neil had his gaze on her. His gaze was full of doting. 

Looking at the picture, Edith felt her cheek burned slightly. Though she was used to the way Neil would stare at her, it was a different feeling to see him with that look on his face through another perspective.

"I look at other photos and thought that this one is the best," Neil said. "What do you think?" A thought came to his mind and Neil paused. "If you don't like this one, we can choose another one." He let her sit down on his leather chair and pushed the photo album to her.

There were hundreds of photographs in the book and each of them had a different pose and facial expression. There were a few pages of her in the dress alone, and then, there were photos with the three of them.

Previously, Neil had said that he wanted to let Hazel in the photograph as well as their flower girl. It was because of Hazel that they met and had the chance to be together. As their little matchmaker, how can she not be in one of the photographs?

After browsing through the photos, Edith put the album aside and turned towards the photo frame. "Un. I think I like that one better."

The smile on his lips widened. "Then, we'll choose this one and use it for the wedding." Neil put the album aside and watched as Edith stood up and headed over to the sofa. 

"I thought you might be skipping your lunch earlier today," Edith pulled the paper bag on the table and took out a few lunch boxes. "Come over and eat first. It's not good to let your stomach empty. Have your dinner earlier."

His gaze turned warm as he looked at her. Neil walked over and sat down beside his wife. "Did you come here to deliver food for me?"

Edith smiled as she continued taking off the lid. She accompanied him to eat and waited until he had finished. Then, Edith turned around to grab her bag and pulled out a stack of paper.

Neil was cleaning the lunch boxes on the table when he saw his wife holding the papers. He raised a brow at her and asked, "What is that?"

"Do you remember the last time we went over to your brother's house?" Edith asked. "That auntie gave you a folder with Hazel's drawing."

He thought about the matter and nodded. 

"Earlier, I was accompanying Hazel to look at a few of her drawings," Edith said. "Then, we found this stack of paper slipped inside the folder. Neil, I think your brother, Adam had hidden them with Hazel's drawing."

The moment Neil heard his brother's name, he quickly put the lunch boxes down and reached for the papers. He scanned for the information and after a while, his eyes turned darker.

After his brother had suddenly passed away, Neil had heard a few rumors and knew that before the accident, his brother was looking into their hospital project on the west side of the city.

MH Group wanted to venture into other business other than property development and construction. Once this hospital is completed, it will become the first hospital under MH Group. The public's eyes were on this project the moment they announced it.

It will be the company's first hospital project and they were collaborating with a few big groups. A large sum of money was invested in this project and everyone was waiting to see it complete. The new hospital was expected to share the burden with L City's Hospital.

However, according to that prosecutor, Jennifer Jiang, Adam found out that some people had stolen a large sum of money from this project. He was investigating this matter in secret and had found shocking evidence.

They were planning to reveal this matter to the public, but before Adam could have done so, he was involved in an accident and passed away. Meanwhile, Jennifer Jiang was taken away and had managed to escape. She had to live in hiding as she was afraid that those people would kill her.

Neil had tried to search for the evidence and thought that perhaps their enemy had managed to destroy them after Adam died. He did not expect that Adam would be hiding the evidence in Hazel's drawing folders.

After spending her time for a long time in the office Edith left the headquarter with Uncle Tang driving her home.

An hour after Edith left the headquarter, Neil entered his SUV and drove over to the detention center. When he arrived, his friend, Henry was waiting for him in the parking area. Henry walked over to Neil and gave him a look over. A heavy sigh escaped him when he saw Neil's darkened face.

"I've looked into the matter," Henry said. "The youngsters who died in that accident a few months ago were working under Secretary Liu's nephew."

Neil lowered his head. The first time he saw the name on Adam's document, Neil had thought that the name was a little familiar. It was then that he recalled the youngsters who had died in that accident.

A few hours ago, Neil had given Henry a call and explained the situation to him. He then asked Henry to look into a few matters and told him to meet him at the detention center with the investigation report.

"Previously, Secretary Liu's nephew and his gang were also the same people who had tried to cause trouble at the hospital construction site. If your assumption is right, then, someone had asked those youngsters to cause trouble for Adam on the night of the accident."

Neil looked at the stack of paper in Henry's hand with a solemn look on his face.

"Are you going to talk to him?" Henry asked.

"I need to find out the truth."

Henry nodded before he followed Neil into the building.

As soon as they arrived an officer greeted them with a polite smile on his face. "What can I do for you?"

Before Neil could answer, a voice came over from behind them. "I'll take care of this."

Turning around, Neil quickly recognized the man as Captain Steven Qi, who was recently transferred from Y City. Seeing that the Captain seemed to know the man, the officer quickly walked away to continue his job.

"President Mo, why are you here?"

Neil scrutinized the man in front of him and spoke, "I came to meet Secretary Liu. Do you think you can help me and arrange for a meeting with him? There are a few questions that I would like to ask."

Steven was silent for a while. Then he nodded. "Come with me.. I'll help you and arrange a meeting with him."
