The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2248

Bella couldn't waste any time, so she reached out to Ralph. "Ralph, have you conducted an autopsy on Christopher?"

"We have. It was cardiac arrest. But the forensic examiner said this heart arrest wasn't from an existing condition. It was caused by an overdose of injected drugs," Ralph replied.

Bella's suspicions grew, and she spoke softly. "Christopher used to take all sorts of drugs at Rose Island to stay alert, but they never caused him any issues. Yet now, after being in detention for over half a month without access to drugs or injections, he suddenly dies? Doesn't that seem really odd to you?"

Ralph was equally suspicious and said, "We can speculate all we want, but without concrete evidence, we can't do anything... Apart from you, did he meet with anyone else recently?"

"His family has vanished entirely. Who else could have visited him? Look into everyone who interacted with him. Don't overlook even a janitor; investigate them all!" Bella took a deep breath, her swollen eyes sharpening with focus. "Ralph, don't you recall? When James was detained before, he was killed swiftly. That death was even more brutal. It was clearly a murder!

"This time, the culprit was more discreet, doing it subtly and quietly. They may have even injected him while he was sleeping. So look into all the inmates he shared a cell with-anyone who interacted with him. Their identities, backgrounds, and financial records-investigate them thoroughly!"

"Yes, that's exactly what I plan to do." Suddenly, Ralph fell silent for a moment before asking softly, "Bella, are you okay?"
