“How’s the investigation going?” Shane asked.

Silas’ face turned serious as he said, “I looked around at the site. It looks like Ms. Lawrence was alone when she fell. Of course, I won’t rule out the possibility that Harrison and his wife had gotten rid of the evidence that they were there.”

The former narrowed his eyes at that.

Then, his assistant continued, “Since there were only the three of them there when it happened, the couple can definitely get rid of any disadvantageous evidence and act as though Ms. Lawrence had fallen on her own before calling the cops.”

“So we still can’t tell the truth about Yulia’s death?” Shane’s face darkened as he spoke.

Silas nodded. “That’s right. We don’t have enough evidence to prove that Harrison and his wife had pushed her down, nor can we prove that she had fallen herself. That’s why we’re stuck. If we can’t find out the truth about what happened within the stipulated deadline…”

“Then we’ll have to close the case with the conclusion that Yulia had fallen down the stairs on her own.” Shane completed Silas’ sentence.

Natalie pushed open the door just as the assistant was about to reply. Her eyes were red as she exclaimed, “That’s unacceptable!”

She still didn’t think that her mothers had fallen down the stairs on her own.

“You heard?” Shane stared at her.

 

She murmured a “Yes,” before adding, “I want to go to the police station and meet with Harrison.”
