Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 91

Two assistants rushed to Balch’s side, as the show producer also immediately led a team carrying cameras to approach him, pointing at Balch to film The studio was suddenly in chaos

Balch stood un sandwiched between two assistants, but was still bumped a couple of times

In the midst of the chaos, he heard one of the assistants say “M: Lawson, we’ve got a problem”

Then he heard the almost shrieking voice of the show producer Mr Lawson, there are online rumors that your ex wife’s death is linked to Fidelia and that you’re in the know is this true?”

Hearing this question, Batch’s head felt like it was blown up, buzzing with confusion that stopped him from thinking

“Back off” the two assistants tried to push away the crowd “Stop filming!”

The station’s reporters continued to ask, ‘Did you collude with Fidelia to kill your ex wife?”

Was Fidelia’s death also your plan?”

“Why would you have Fidelia kill your wife?

In this extremely noisy and chaotic environment, Balch abruptly took off his glasses, glaring at the crowd, his voice cold and stern: “This is utter nonsenser

Then a phone was handed to Balch.

“How do you explain the content of this online expose?”

Balch looked down to see the content on the phone screen: “The mystery of Janetta’s death has been revealed, the murderer is the closest person!”

Balch reached out to take the phone, but the person suddenly pulled back, continuing to ask more sharp and aggressive questions

“Mr. Lawson, you should leave now! The assistant managed to block the crowd and turned to Balch.

Balch turned around and headed for the studio ext

But as soon as he got to the door, someone came in from the outside, bumping right into him.

“Mr Lawson Herman, leading a small team, blocked his way, saying, “About the deaths of your ex–wife Janetta and Fidelia, we would like you to come back to the police station to assist with the investigation”

Balch, not wearing his glasses, revealed a deep gaze, calmly looking at the police in front of him

After a while, he put his glasses back on, returning to his usual gentle demeanor, and replied lightly, “Okay”

He left the TV station with Herman, with many people holding up cameras to follow and film. Balch knew that the online report was now public knowledge.

Not until he got in the car did he finally get to see the full content of the online expose

The expose analyzed his relationship with Janetta and Fidelia in detail. More importantly, it included a video that he had watched countless times and was supposed to have been destroyed

The murderer in the video was dressed in black, hiding her identity, and stabbed Janetta

Janetta was powerless to resist, gradually losing her life.

“What is this?” Balch’s face turned serious, and he slowly asked Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“This is the surveillance footage from when your wife was killed” Herman said slowly. “In the previous investigation, you didn’t mention that you had surveillance installed in your house”

Balch suddenly laughed, “So what? Is this proof that I’m the murderer? I didn’t know about the surveillance, and I don’t know where this footage came from.”

“No problem Herman paused, took out his own phone, pulled up a video, and handed it to him. “Take a look at this.”

Balch glanced at him, took the phone, and saw the same video

Though it had the same content, this video was obviously processed.

Balch’s hand suddenly froze

In the video, he saw himself, his face appeared in the surveillance footage

There was a not–so–obvious mirror in a liquor cabinet

He saw his face in that mirror, calm and composed, quietly watching as the murderer stabbed Janetta over and over again.

Until the moment Janetta’s life ended, the face in the mirror smiled

While the outside world was dramatically changing, Seraphina slept until the evening at home.

After she got up she quickly freshened up and went out to find something to eat.

Walking into a small restaurant, everyone was discussing the same thing

Seraphina didn’t care ordered a bowl of spaghetti Bolognese for herself, and quietly sat there eating

As she was just taking a few bites, a car key was suddenly thrown onto her table, then the chair across was pulled out, and someone sat down.

Seraphina looked up to see Herman in plain clothes.

“Mr Herman, what a coincidence Seraphina smiled slightly What are you having? It’s on me.”

I’m not used to women picking up the tab Herman looked at her with his arms crossed and said, “Ms Bennett, you have quite an appetite.”

Seraphina smiled at him again. Tim in a good mood, so naturally. I have a good appetite”

“How about going to the police station with me after you finish eating?”

Seraphina agreed readily. “Sure”

Herman looked at her as if he were looking at a monster “Aren’t you going to ask why?

“Is there a need?” Seraphina said, “You’ve found me. I think we both know the reason, don’t we?”

Herman didn’t say anything; he just looked at her with his eyes.

Seraphina ate her spaghetti Bolognese leisurely, then left with Herman.

They arrived at the police station, where Herman found a room for Seraphina to give her statement

Seraphina seemed very familiar with all this. Herman looked at her and said, “It seems Ms. Bennett is quite familiar with going to the police station”

“This is the second time.” Seraphina smiled In Starhaven, I’ve been to the police station many times.”

“In what capacity did you go to the police station?”

“As a journalist”

Herman stared at her again. “So, from the beginning of your acquaintance with Balch, you were investigating him?”

Seraphina slightly tilted her head, smiling very relaxedly. “Is there a problem?”

For a moment, Herman was at a loss for words

At night, Herman wrapped up a full day’s work and left the police station when he suddenly got a call from Edgar.

When he got to the winery, he saw Edgar and Victor deep in heated discussion.

“What time do you think it is?” Herman grumbled, “I’m beat. If you’ve got something to say, spit it out.”

“What else could it be?” Edgar retorted, “How’s the Balch case going? Can you give us some intel?”

At this, Herman made an “X with his hands and got up to leave.

Edgar quickly grabbed him and said, “Wait, just give us some info, a little bit’s fine.”

“The case is under investigation; I can’t reveal anything” Herman was ruthless. As he turned to leave, he saw Leandro come in frong outside.

The sight of Leandro reminded him of the Seraphina he’d seen that night, making him pause.
