Chapter 250 The Murderer Is Still at Large

“I guess so, but I’d usually treat this as being polite.” After Rachel kept the medicine kit away, she walked upstairs. “It’s getting late. I’m going to rest now.” I should try my best to avoid spending time with Justin alone, now that both of us are living together. After all, I know how strong he is as a man.

Meanwhile, as soon as Rachel entered the second bedroom, she received a message from Janice.

After reading the message, her expression stiffened and she immediately gave Janice a ring.
