“Let me see, let me see!”

Lauren ran over and immediately took over the police officer’s position.

The first thing she saw was a photo of a woman wearing a black evening dress. Her hair was loosely tied up with a hairpin, and she looked very elegant and beautiful.

The next photo was of this woman sitting in front of the piano. Then, Lauren slid her finger on the screen to read further.

Lauren realized that this woman was actually a famous pianist. She graduated from a very famous university’s Faculty of Economics and Management. However, because she started learning piano when she was young, she later became a pianist.

Greta had an impressive resume throughout her life. Although she had never lost to a man, she still married the wrong man.

Lauren reached the bottom of the page with a clear answer in her heart.

If she had not guessed wrongly, the soul in Ruby’s body was Greta’s. With this, everything that happened could be explained.

Ruby was suddenly good at math for no reason. She even knew how to play the piano. She also had such strong feelings for Samuel and Rene. Also, that night when they were watching the news, Ruby was so angry with people who stood aside when somebody was in peril. It was all because she hated Susan very much.

Susan only saved her own child at that time, and did not save Greta’s children.

After she understood what was happening, Lauren sat down in a chair.

It didn’t make her feel any better inside.

She didn’t know how to face this fake Ruby.

In particular, it was very difficult to tell who was right and who was wrong.

Greta was an educated woman. She once had a very happy family and a very successful career. She definitely was not willing to let things get to this point. She must have been suffering.

If not for extreme hatred and disappointment, how could she have gotten to this point?

The scales in Lauren’s heart were already swaying left and right without her realizing it.

At this moment, Divine Nine specifically came out to remind Lauren.

[System Divine Nine: Host, don’t let your emotions get the best of you. The world is full of grey areas, but in front of the law, black is black and white is white.]

Lauren let out a deep breath. At her age, she should have been living a colorful childhood, but she had to face the ugliness of human nature.

But Divine Nine was right. In the world of law, black was black, and white was white. Everything was very clear-cut.

Currently, the real problem lay with Ruby. It wouldn’t be easy to clear Susan’s name, because Ruby’s previous confession already existed. Even if Lauren could successfully extract the ghost from Ruby’s body, Ruby’s changed confession might not be able to be used as evidence and Susan could still be unable to be released.

The law of the country would favor Ruby as she was a child and there was no need for her to lie.

In that case, there was a good chance that Susan will be prosecuted unilaterally.

On the way back, Lauren was trying to figure out a way to expose the truth behind Ruby’s situation.

She recalled the things she had seen on the desk in Ruby’s room. There was a knife and a ruler.

She suspected that Ruby had used these two items to cause the wounds on her hands.

She was alone in her room at the time, so no one could see her. However…

She could set up a trap together with the police and cause Ruby to give herself away.

Lauren thought for a moment before nodding her head. She felt that this plan was very feasible. That night, Lauren did not go home immediately. Instead, she arranged for Franklin to meet with the chief officer of a local police station, and she told them about her plan.

The plan was very simple. She would tell Ruby that due to lack of evidence, Susan would not be detained, and Ruby had to go back and live with Susan.

If Ruby wanted to continue framing Susan, she would definitely continue to hurt herself. In order to expose her, she only needed to install surveillance cameras in Ruby’s room.

The police had never heard of such a method of solving a case. Wasn’t this likely to put Ruby in danger?

Although they had not figured out the whole story, they were definitely biased toward Ruby.

“I am quite confident that Auntie Susan is innocent. Everything is Ruby’s own doing,” said Lauren..
