CHAPTER 1009 EVEN

Sasha could no longer hold it in anymore. She started laughing maniacally. "You killed Alvin, youb*stards!" She glared at Colton. I can't believe I've sacrificed Alvin for love. She thought Alvin wassmart enough to keep himself out of torture, but she was wrong. In the end, he died.

"Lock her up and grill her for answers." Colton turned around to leave as soon as he gave out his order.He didn't bother to respond to her.

Sasha was flabbergasted. When someone came to drag her away, she finally snapped out of it androared, "Let me see his body, Colton!"

He went ahead without stopping, however. No matter how much the woman screamed, he refused tobudge.

Roger followed the people who took Sasha away, while Julian followed Colton. He'd been working forColton for a while now, so he knew Colton's history with Sasha. Looking at his grim face, Julian askedin a low voice, "So, what will you do with her?"

Colton still looked dark. A while later, he said coldly, "You know what to do."

Okay, he's mad. Like, for real, Julian thought to himself.

Seeing that Julian followed him, Colton stopped and said, "This case is almost done now. You don'thave to come with me. I've given you the address. You should see her now."

The mention of Dream made him freeze. Julian had been keeping that tucked at the back of his mindfor a long time, but every night, he would dream of a bloodied woman holding a child, asking him,"Why?" He fought with himself for a long time. Eventually, he nodded. "I understand."

After he sent Julian off, Colton went back to the hospital. Nicole covered herself up like a cocoon. Thewhole blanket covered her head, and Colton pulled it down a little. Nicole looked like a pitiful kitten, andhe felt sympathetic. Carefully, he brushed his thumb across her cheek, wiping her tears away. Then, hesaid in a gentle tone, "You don't have to be down about it."

Nicole wasn't asleep. She knew the moment Colton came in, but she didn't respond to him. Slowly, sheopened her eyes and looked at the man, humming in response.

He dragged a chair and sat down before taking a napkin from the table to wipe her tears. "Sasha iscaptured. Roger is grilling her for answers. I promise we'll get her to talk."

Nicole closed her eyes. She looked calm as if she didn't care about the case anymore.

Colton knew she was bothered about what Siobhan said, so he consoled her, "If Evelyn is involved inthis, I'll make sure she pays for it even if I have to fight the Wrenns."

After a long silence, she finally responded. She shook her head. "No need for that."

The man looked at her and frowned. That's not what she said earlier. Did something happen? "Whathappened?" he asked softly.

"Just let Evelyn's case go. Madam Gould is my birth mother, after all. This makes us even now. I oweher nothing anymore," she said calmly, leaning on her bed.

Colton looked at her, feeling sorry for her.
