That night, Jack drives Ashley home after Rick Langham's party. The night air provided a touch of refreshing coolness, while the scent of flowers filled their noses, creating the perfect backdrop for serious conversation.As the car's wheels rolled through the somewhat deserted road, the vehicle's interior offered a warm atmosphere that hugged them close. Ashley couldn't help but be amazed, her voice filled with admiration, "I'm actually surprised how quickly you were able to come up with such great evidence, Jack."Jack smiled humbly, his eyes fixed on the road that stretched ahead. "The detective I hired was indeed a very skilled professional. He told me about the CCTV in the building next door, an old mall that was almost bankrupt. It turned out that, even though the building was almost forgotten, the surveillance cameras were still working. The management agreed to give me the footage in exchange for money. The detective also didn't hesitate to charge his fair share. And I, of cou

Jack experienced emotional turmoil that was difficult to express. On the one hand, he was happy to see Ashley happy with Brandon, but on the other hand, his jealousy burned inside. For a moment, he wished he could do more, but he knew he had to limit himself.After dinner, the sky had turned into the color of deep night. They all stood up to go their separate ways, and Brandon offered to take Ashley home.Jack swallowed in discomfort. He forced a smile and bid them farewell. "Bye, Ashley. Brandon, drive safe."When Brandon's car pulled away, Jack froze for a moment. He felt helpless, not knowing how to deal with his complicated feelings. When they left, he froze in place, trying to calm himself.Finally, Jack returned to his mansion with a shaken heart. The sparkling light that usually filled the room, this time felt like a heavy burden. He reflected on everything that had happened today, trying to find a way to calm the wave of emotions he had never experienced before. ***Meanwhile

The sky above Lumina City was vast, but in Jack's heart, a storm of emotions was rolling around. Every step towards the police station felt heavy, accompanied by mounting pressure in his chest. When he stepped into the police station, he tried to suppress the tension that filled the room."My CCTV evidence is authentic," said Jack in a steady voice, his eyes staring intently at the officer behind the desk. "I didn't edit anything. I need justice here."The police officer, a middle-aged man with a serious expression, replied firmly, "Sorry, Mr. Ashworth, the Gordon Hawthorne case has been closed. There is not enough evidence to detain him."When Jack talks to the police, every word he utters sounds trembling with annoyance and disbelief. "Impossible. I guarantee you, that the CCTV evidence is genuine. I didn't do anything with the footage. You have to look further!" he exclaimed in a voice that sounded so steady.The police officer, a dark brown-haired man with a serious face, maintain

As they approached the burning object, the surroundings seemed silent, only their footsteps could be heard rumbling among the unfinished construction structures. Jack looked carefully at the object lying on the ground partially charred."Jack, look at this," Ashley said in a worried tone, pointing at the object. "This is one of the items I found here this morning. Looks like some kind of lighter, doesn't it?"Jack nodded, still watching the object carefully. "Yes, that's right. And if this is the lighter that Gordon used during the fire, then this could be the authentic evidence we need."Ashley interrupted, looking worried. "But what should we do now, Jack? Should we call the police?""The police are not on our side now, so I think we have to think of an effective way," said Jack.Jack then started taking photos of the object with his cellphone, making sure every angle was well documented. This was an important step in their efforts to uncover the truth behind the Gordon Hawthorne ca

Jack looked at Suzzane with a cold and firm gaze. "There are no second chances, Suzzane. It's over." Every word was spoken with certainty, there was no room for debate.Suzzane tried to plead in a hoarse voice, "Jack, please give me another chance, I promise..."However, Jack didn't give her a chance to continue. With steady steps, he went to the car and nimbly opened the door, then locked the door firmly. The next step, he started the engine and drove away without looking back.“Jack! Wait!" Suzzane almost caught up to Jack's car as it started to drive away, but she stopped in the middle of the road. ers gaze followed the car with deep sadness. Jack had really gone too far with her.Suzzane felt uncontrollable anger fill her chest. She wasn't used to being treated like this. Previous men always tried to spoil her, even when she was the one at fault. Jealousy made her even more angry. She knew Jack now had many beautiful women by his side, Diana Buchanan, Ashley Norton, and most recen
