Chapter 959 959: Ruby Died



He didn't even think about it and bowed his head and kissed her.

With his own tongue and teeth, he opened her teeth.

The next second, however, she bit his lip very hard.

He snorted, his big hand holding down her body.

Soon, Lilith cried. She would at least retain a trace of reason. While she cried, Jay raised his face, and she had bitten his lips, blood flowing out.

"Lilith, let me treat your wound." This time he took her clenched fingers, sterilized them with hydrogen peroxide, and wiped the blood marks before he found multiple wounds in her palms.

Jay felt more hurt than before. 

"Has she been like this before?" Jay asked them.

William was a little confused. He looked at Kelly, whose face was full of grief, and said softly, "She has been addicted to drugs before, but never as serious as today."

"How long has it been before I came?"

Kelly choked and said, "Nearly two hours."

"What?"

Jay was shocked.

"What did you do when she was suffering the drug addiction?" He looked at them.

Kelly stopped talking.

William's face was full of embarrassment.

Jay felt very strange, but Lilith began to beg again. She curled up all over. Although she was forced to be tied, she still desperately struggled, and she shouted at Shirley, "Mom, I beg you, please, let me take the drugs, I beg you."

Jay heard her words, stunned, and turned to look at Kelly.

And Kelly knew that this time she could not hide, and she cried, sobbing, "A few times before, I really couldn't bear to see her so painful, so I paid a high price in the black market to buy heroin."

Jay was shocked, and he just stood up suddenly, shouting, "What?"

The rain finally stopped.

It didn't rain the next day, but it still looked gloomy, marking a bad day. 

Joseph didn't go to the company too early since he was waiting for the contract made by the Legal Department.

The doorbell suddenly rang, interrupting Irish's thoughts. Assuming it might be Mia, she pressed the button to unlock the door. However, to her surprise, several stern-looking men in uniforms stood before her.

Irish immediately called Joseph, seeking his guidance.

Two men presented their credentials as Joseph opened the door and introduced themselves. One was an official from the procuratorate, while the other was a police officer.

The official from the procuratorate spoke, "Mr. Dover, we have received a report alleging that you have illicitly gained benefits through the theft of confidential information. We need to conduct a business investigation into these allegations."

The police officer added, "Mr. Dover, Ruby's body has been discovered, and there are suspicions of foul play. It has been reported that you had quarrels with her the previous night. We kindly request you to accompany us to the police station for further investigation."

There was a tale on a rainy day. When it was a rainy day, someone asked God, "Why am I unhappy on a rainy day? "God said, "It has nothing to do with the weather. It's because there is no sunshine in your heart. If your mind is absorbed in something else, you will feel lost."

This answer may be related to philosophy. Irish would answer with her career experience, "The surrounding environment greatly affects one's psychology. One has various emotions, which the weather can trigger, and then psychological changes occur. Take a rainy day as an example. When the air pressure gets lower, one's breath can be affected. One's view will also be vague, and then it can give one a hint that she feels down."

Irish felt up and down from yesterday's heavy rain to today's clouds.

After seeing these men with uniforms, Irish felt an air of terror in the color of these uniforms for the first time.

She couldn't keep it easy and joyful on such a rainy day, especially when she saw those men come in a hurry.

Joseph was also surprised, but he still opened the door calmly and waited for their words without any changes in his expression.

Their words shocked them totally.

Especially the policeman's words.

Irish felt so startled that she couldn't help asking, "What did you say? Ruby died?"

The policeman glanced at Irish, and then he stared at Joseph's face fiercely, "The body was found at 4 a.m. in the morning and in the bush near the building. It has been found out that the dead is Ruby. She died at around 11 p.m. Mr. Dover, you didn't come back home then, right?"

Joseph turned from being shocked to being calm now, saying lightly, "Ruby's death has nothing to do with me."

"You need to go with me to the police station."

Joseph took a glance at the time peacefully, "Could you please give me two more hours? I need to go back to the company."

"I'm afraid that you can't do that." The policeman said firmly, "The meeting room of the Runestone Group is the first scene of the murder, and now the police have blocked it for investigation."

Joseph heard that and frowned.

Irish was in a daze, and her heart just beat quickly. Soon the phone on the desk rang. It was Roy. She passed it on to Joseph immediately. He just took it over and signed it to the policemen.

Joseph got it through. Irish was close to him, so she could grasp Roy's voice. It was anxious, seeming to tell him that the Runestone Group was blocked because of Ruby's death.

"I see. Please just comfort the employees and make a report to the shareholders." Joseph's voice was very low, sounding calm and logical.

Putting the phone down, Joseph looked at those policemen, "Will it take me much time? Now the Group's situation is terrible."

"I'm afraid that things will not go with your will because you also need to cooperate with us because Henry's case occurred in December last year."

Joseph's eyes turned cold.

Irish was shocked. She couldn't help coming forward, "My father died of heart disease. Why did you say that he was murdered?"

"Mr. Dover, please go with us to accept the investigation." Obviously, the policeman didn't want to show many details on the case.

Irish's heart just beat quickly. Joseph comforted Irish and looked at the personnel of the procuratorate beside them.

The personnel just said, "We will wait for your coming back from the police station."

They all stared at Joseph.

The accusations are a business crime, and the two murder cases were all big issues.

Although Irish was anxious, she wasn't so childish that she rushed to them and defended that Joseph was innocent. They all came here in the early morning. There must be much certain but unbeneficial evidence. It was no good to use shouting and quarreling. Joseph had to go with them.

Joseph took a glance at Irish, worrying that she would be concerned about him. Seeing her constrained, he felt released.

"Mr. Dover, please."

Joseph said calmly, "I need to notify my lawyer."

"Sure."

Joseph looked at Irish again. He didn't speak, and Irish just said calmly, "I will go to the Runestone Group for more details and then notify Daisy to inform your lawyer."

"Okay." Joseph smiled lightly and pulled her head over, kissing her forehead.

Irish wanted to cry.
