The Contract Marriage

Chapter 348 Truth Of Daphne's Death

Samantha immediately looked at her daughter reproachfully. "You are also joking with your mother, right?"

Sarah laughed mischievously and hugged her mother's arm coquettishly, "Mom, I don't dare! I just feel that Stephen's grandpa is a good person. You said that you can live alone, but I'm not at ease. Uncle isn't at ease either. Christian’s father's relationship with our family started when I was very young. You have a common language with him. If you really get along with him. . . I think you'll definitely be happier than now! "

Samantha heard her daughter's words and shook her head. "You'd better stop! I will not agree to this matter! Ethan is a good person, but he is your father's best friend. Besides, I am already so old. What is the point of remarrying? If our neighbors know about this, they would definitely think that I'm too indecent. I don't want them to poke my spine. Don't mention this anymore in the future!"

To her, at this age, she no longer thought about other things. She only hoped that her daughter would live a happy life. Then she would be content.

"Our neighborhood also has one! I remember you telling me before the New Year that Auntie Taylor married another retired worker. And you also said that she is living a good life last time.”

If you enter the Cooper Family, you will be even better than her. Of course, I don't need to talk about Christian. You watched Julian grow up. He has become better now. If you go. . . It will make him very happy to have such a big family every day. You can see Stephen every day. No matter which way you looked at it, there were only benefits and no disadvantages to it! Don't always be in a hurry to refuse. Can you think about it first?" Sarah tried to pursue softly.

Samantha listened to her daughter's words and thought for a while. Then she nodded. "Okay, I understand. . ." After saying that, she lowered her head and went to play with her grandson.

Sarah looked at her mother's expression and knew that this matter still needed to be considered and did not continue to speak.

The lunch was very good. Christian's cooking naturally could not be described.

After lunch, Stephen fell asleep in Sarah's arms. Because he was going to the army early in the morning the next day, after lunch, Christian brought Sarah and Stephen back to the villa.

On the way back, Christian looked at Sarah as he drove and asked, "Did you talk to Mom?"

Sarah nodded. "Yes! But I didn't succeed. . . " After saying that, she let out a light sigh.

Christian smiled and said, "Don't worry! It will succeed! Didn't you say that everything will be difficult at the beginning? Don't worry. Once my father takes action, he will definitely succeed."

"Sigh, I really hope that my mom agrees. That way, I won't have to run between both sides. I don't have to worry about anything happening to her either."

Christian lightly patted Sarah's hand and looked in front of him and said, "Don't worry. She will be fine."

Sarah nodded and did not say anything else.

The atmosphere in Cooper Family had been very good these two days.

The case was getting clearer and clearer. Although Greta had not been caught, it was only a matter of time. Thinking about how the bad guys were finally going to be punished, everyone in Cooper Family was very happy.

During dinner, Old Master Cooper looked the whole family sitting on the round dinning table and said with emotion, "I always thought that Ethan's health wasn't good, that’s why he fell sick. Now I know it was all because of Vivian! Fortunately, Ethan was lucky. That was why he escaped the doors of death! If we didn't find out, we would still be in the dark."

Ethan nodded and sighed heavily. "Sigh. Back then, I shouldn't have agreed to let her marry into the Cooper Family. It was also because I thought of the child in her womb at that time. For a moment, my heart softened and I agreed to her marriage with Julian. But I never thought that compromise would almost take my life! This person. . ."

After saying that, he couldn't help but shake his head.

His father's words made Julian feel ashamed. "Dad, this is all my fault! I shouldn't have liked her back then! If I hadn't married her, so many things wouldn't have happened. Sigh, if my mother knew that all these things were done by Vivian, she would definitely be furious. Back then, my mom was so good to her. . ."

Old Master Cooper listened to Julian's words and took over the words with a solemn expression. "When Julian said so, I suddenly have a thought. . ."

The whole family looked at the old man. Ethan looked at his father and asked, "Dad, what do you think?"

Old Master Cooper slowly said, "I am thinking. . . So many things happened in our family in the past few months. Do you think Daphne accidentally fell down the stairs at that time was also related to Vivian?"

This sentence shocked everyone!

There was suddenly silence at the dining table.

Julian suddenly slammed the table and said hatefully, "With that woman's ruthlessness, she could definitely do such a thing. Perhaps my mother's death really has something to do with her!"

Christian frowned. He looked at Sarah beside him and asked, "When Aunt Daphne died, did you call the police?"

Sarah nodded. "Yes! At that time, although we did not think about anything else, we still called the police. The police also came to investigate the scene, but they did not say that it was a murder. They only said that it was an accident."

"Was Vivian at home that night?"

"Yes. She went upstairs after dinner, but we didn't see her come down."

Christian nodded. "Based on what she did in our house, Aunt Daphne's death might have something to do with her. Dad, how about this, I'll call Chief Warren tonight. I think since we called the police back then, the police must have a file. But I have to report to the army tomorrow. I can't delay any longer."

After saying that, he looked at Julian opposite him. "Julian, I'll give you the phone number of the captain of the criminal police. If there's anything, I'll ask him to look for you directly."

"Okay, Big Brother. If this matter is also related to Vivian, then this woman's heart is too ruthless." When Julian mentioned Vivian, his teeth itched with hatred.

Christian thought for a moment and then looked at Sarah beside him and asked, "Oh right, who saw Aunt Daphne fall on the ground first?"

Old Master Cooper took over the conversation. "It was Mrs. Garcia. She woke up the earliest every day."

Christian immediately asked the housekeeper to call Mrs. Garcia over. After a while, Mrs. Garcia walked into the restaurant.

Christian looked at Mrs. Garcia and asked, “Mrs. Garcia, do you remember the day Aunt Daphne died?"

Mrs. Garcia immediately nodded when she heard that. "Yes!"

"Then do you remember that when you walked out of the room, were the lights in the living room and the stairs turned on?"

Mrs. Garcia stood where she was and thought for a while, then shook her head. "No. They were all turned off."

"Did you remember it clearly?"

"Yes." Mrs. Garcia nodded affirmatively.

Christian continued to ask, "Do you remember during that period of time, did the lights on the stairs break?"

"No, they are all fine."

Christian nodded and raised his hand slightly. Mrs. Garcia immediately understood and left.
