Chapter 444 I'll Think About It Again

If Selena really wanted to kill someone, she would certainly have made some proper arrangements for her children to be away from the scene, but at that time, the three children were in the bridal party, and so they were among the crowd in the banquet hall.

In fact, the surveillance footage also showed that when Selena was toasting to John, the three children were watching the fun close by, so when John was poisoned and slumped back in his chair, they witnessed everything very clearly.

"Okay, but if a higher-level autopsy is to be conducted, it is necessary for us to dissect the body for further examination. You, as the daughter-in-law of the victim, are eligible to sign the consent form, but..." The officer did not continue further.

Selena was taken aback; she understood what dissecting the body meant. It meant that they had to cut John's body into pieces and then send them to separate places for individual examination. Pierre was no around, and his father had died, so how was she to sign the consent for such an autopsy?

"Isn't there another way?" Selena's voice began to falter.

"No. Although the forensic laboratory has very high-end inspection equipment, if you want to carry out a detailed autopsy, it is still not good enough. Therefore, we need to send each body part to the best laboratories, which are not located in one place.

It's just like when we go in for medical consultations; if we want to check our brain, we go to the best neurologist; if we want to check our foot, we go to the best foot specialist. Do you understand?" Selena hung her head in silence. After all, keeping a body whole was the greatest respect one could offer the dead. Astoria had always held firm such a tradition to keep the body of the dead as complete as possible. But if she were to request for the detailed autopsy, it would mean that such an influential figure as John Fowler could not even keep his body whole upon death! Besides, he was Pierre's father!

"Have you thought it through? If you're clear about it, I'll print out the information and apply for it through my superiors, and then you can just sign."

"I'll think about it again." Selena did not dare to make this decision on a whim.

On the other hand, Jude and Wyatt sent the three kids home. Although there were maids at home, having witnessed John's death, it was inevitable that the three kids were still scared. All of them did not eat much and did not play as much as before.

"Aunt Jude, when will my mommy come back? I miss my mommy so much." Juniper looked at Jude.

Hearing that, Jude took the little girl into her arms. "She will be back soon."

"Aunt Jude, did my grandfather die?" Jameson suddenly spoke, his eyes a little glazed. But Jude didn't know how to answer this question.

Only Joaquin didn't say a word, and his usual serious expression remained on his small face. "Juniper, you didn't sleep well last night, so go take a nap now." He suddenly stood up and took Juniper's hand. "Okay, I'm indeed sleepy."

Holding Juniper's hand, Joaquin prepared to go upstairs with her. Suddenly, after going up three steps on the staircase, Juniper stopped.

"What's wrong?" Joaquin turned his head to look at her, only to see blood flowing out of her nose.

"Juniper is bleeding!" Joaquin hurriedly shouted toward Jude.

How did I end up in this situation? How I wish Pierre was here. Jude stood outside the emergency room, feeling a splitting headache coming.

Right now, Joaquin and Jameson were left at home. The two of them were very worried about their sister's safety and had repeatedly asked to come over, but Jude felt that she couldn't take care of them, so she didn't bring them over. The doctor came out of the emergency room and looked a bit miserable.

Jude came up and asked, "What's going on?"

"A relapse." The doctor let out a deep sigh.

"How could that be? When Juniper was discharged from the hospital, didn't the doctors say she was in good condition before? She could even wait until Selena gives birth and be treated with umbilical cord blood, so how could it relapse so quickly?"
