A Moment in Destiny

Instead, Marcel Hopkins smiled and said, “Mr. Raphael Gill, only you and Joanna Salinas knew what happened between the both of you last night, aside from being known by that person…”

Just after he finished saying so, the sound of door knocking pierced the air, he then stood up and walked towards the door to listen to the reports delivered by the person at the door , there was coldness in his eyes, at some point of the conversation he frowned and turned back to look at Raphael and Rae Baxter, soon he returned and asked Raphael, “Mr.Gill, you returned to NY Villa last night again didn't you, how would you explain this?”

Raphael frowned for a while but immediately he remained calm, he then smiled and said, “Captain Hopkins, I went home last night, I don’t know what you are talking about!”

Rae was disappointed instead , ‘Did he went out last night?’she thought.

‘Would he?’

Marcel smiled and said, “Mr.Gill, do you think that you have the authority to simply access the security cameras as you wish just because NY Villa is a part of the Raphael family industry? The video records of Green Villa Area and NY Villa last night were both 5 minutes shorter, are you trying to tell me that this is a coincidence Mr.Gill?”

Raphael shrugged his shoulders and said, “Is this not a coincidence?”

All of a sudden Marcel’s voice became deep, “Mr.Gill, please stop wasting your time, it would be more beneficial for you to tell the truth! Or else...” he did not finish his sentence.

Lawyer King suddenly stood up with full of righteousness he said to Marcel, “Captain Hopkins, what you said towards my client just now can be regarded as a threat, we will take legal actions for that!”

Marcel returned with a smile and said, “It seems like it did not say anything!”

“You better keep it that way!” replied Lawyer King.

In the meantime Rae was staring at Raphael, her eyes were full of concern.

Raphael later said, “Captain Hopkins, I can only say that I have nothing to do with Joanna’s death!”

Marcel nodded and said, “Right now I only hope that Mr.Gill could tell me who it is he is defending for?”

Raphael remained in silence.

Marcel then said, “Last night around 11.15pm to 11.20pm, the CCTV at Green Villa Area lost signal for about 5 minutes! 5 minutes, is just enough to move a car from the villa’s garage and drive out towards Green Villa Area, I tested it out with my colleague, right at the corner of Green Villa Area, there is dead corner which is a blind spot for the CCTV on the street, you could have switched cars there!”

Marcel’s interpretation caused Raphael to be expressionless, Lawyer King was anxious. “Captain Hopkins, you will need to prove your statements!”

“You don’t need to remind me, I am a police officer, I understand that. ”Marcel said with confidence.

Instead Rae was thinking, ‘She called Raphael many times last night, she even texted him but he didn’t reply, did he not bring his phone along with him? Or is it inconvenient for him to bring his own personal phone?’ she thought.

is that worth for Raphael to defend? Raphael’s reputation is pretty well-maintained when he was at home, even the whole City B was full of young masters, all dressed handsomely, many
