Rae was stunned for a moment when she heard this. Impotent?
Marcel had sex with her last night when she was in his condominium. How could he be impotent?
She looked at Lexie in surprise and wondered what she was thinking about in her mind to say these words.
Lexie noticed Raeâs silence and said again, âDonât tell me that youâve never been together with Captain Hopkins. I saw you getting out of his car several times. And you two came together in the morning. So, I believe you two broke up so quickly because of the discord in your life as a couple.
So, his self-esteem has suffered greatly. He flew into a rage out of humiliation and broke up with you in public!â
Rae was so astonished as if she was struck by lightning.
Rae sighed once more that Lexieâs imagination was indeed so rich that she could write a play!
She shook her head. âSome of the things are not like what youâve imagined. This matter had already passed, and I donât want to bring it up again.
Weâve already broken up. Itâs pointless to investigate the causes now! So, please donât bring up the topic of Captain Hopkinsâ impotence again!
Otherwise, if he hears about it, you will land yourselves in serious troubles!â
Lexie caught a glimpse of Marcel when she looked at the door at this precise moment. She was so terrified that she almost stared out her eyes. She didnât say anything and lowered her head.
Rae said again, âDo you hear me, Lexie? Donât mention Marcel being impotent again!â
âNo, I donât!â Lexie quickly said pitifully, âRae, youâre the one who said it!â
Lexie raised her head uneasily. She gave Rae a quick glance before moving her gaze to the door. Then she exclaimed, âCaptain Hopkins, I didnât say anything!â
Rae abruptly turned around and saw Marcel.
Marcelâs handsome face was gloomy at the moment. He narrowed his eyes and gave them a menacing glance.
To be exact, he was looking at Rae.
Raeâs heart began to pound violently. She scolded Lexie for not being righteous in her heart. She even betrayed her!
Rae made no explanation and immediately became serious and said, âCaptain Hopkins, do you have any instructions?â
Marcel smiled icily but said nothing. He only said to Lexie, âLexie, you follow us to the fieldwork today!â
Lexie had never been out on the field before. She was shocked when she heard it and shook her head immediately, âCaptain Hopkins, can I not go?â
âWhy donât you want to go?â Marcelâs expression darkened even more. He asked icily, âDo you think itâs okay if you donât go?â
âHmm. I think Iâm on my period!â Lexie lied to him in order to not go out in the field!
Marcel didnât feel embarrassed also and said directly, âI noticed that it was written in your attendance book that youâre on your period every day!â
Lexie was very embarrassed, âYes! Iâm the type of person who has a short menstrual cycle. When Iâm on my period, it takes a long time for it to end.
Iâve even had metrorrhagia before. So, I wonât be able to go out in the field! Ask Rae to go. Captain Hopkins, I just canât do it!â
Marcel cast an angry glance at Lexie before turning to Rae and asked, âAre your feet okay?â
âFeet?â Rae looked at her own feet in surprise. She was wondering why Marcel had asked her this way in her heart. She suddenly remembered the shoes she had left with him. She pulled her lips and said in a formulaic manner, âItâs fine. I can go if you need me to!â
âThen meet me at my office at half past ten at noon,â Marcel said.
âYes!â Rae gave the nod.
Marcel walked away.
Lexie breathed a sigh of relief and then said embarrassedly to Rae, âIâm sorry, Rae. I just betrayed you by accident! I thought that, after all, Marcel is your ex-boyfriend. He would definitely be angry if he found out I had said something like that about him. He would definitely give me a hard time. He just grabbed the opportunity to retaliate against me just now! And I said that you were the one who said he was impotent. He didnât dare to retaliate against you. It was because doing so would make everyone look down on him! Seeking revenge on an ex-girlfriend is a stupid and inept act!â
âPerhaps he doesnât even care if others look down on him!â Rae was at a loss for words. âWhat youâve said has done nothing but aggravate him! As for whether he will retaliate against me, I think he probably will!â
âNo, no. He wonât!â Lexie shook her head, âHa-ha. If he retaliates against his ex-girlfriend, Iâll be the first to look down on him!â
Rae didnât want to chat with her any longer and said, âI go to the archive room first!â
âRae, you havenât said the reason yet! Why did you and Captain Hopkins break up?â
âExactly as you think!â Rae threw the sentence at her, and she thought that the news of Marcelâs impotence would most likely spread to the whole police station the next day!
Marcel would probably go insane at that time!
Rae had a light smile on her face as she walked to the archive room. And she felt as if her entire body was brimming with power.
She entered the archive room. She found the colleague who was in charge of the archives and asked, âCan you show me the archives of the unsolved cases five years ago?â
âWhat do you want to do with these?â The colleague was perplexed.
âOnly for research purposes!â Rae said.
âAlright!â Her colleague searched for the dossier of the archives for a while and took over, âYou take a look. Please donât break it!â
âOkay!â Rae then looked at them in the archive room.
However, despite her extensive reading, there was no Raeâs case during the few months she went to the Baxter family! If the case was present, then it should be sent by the police station under them! The head office should have a summary file. She went over it again and again, but she couldnât find that case!
She stayed in the archive room for two hours, going through all of the files in that month. Still, she couldnât find the files of the case, which was the case of Rae dying namelessly, but it turned out to be Natalieâs body!
Rae only thought that this was a major issue. Did Kane even have a helper in the police station?
That was certain, but who would it be?
The first person that came to Raeâs mind was Easton!
She handed the files back to the in-charge colleague and asked casually, âHmm, are these all the files? Are there any more files?â
âNo!â Her colleague told her certainly. âHowever, the archive room once caught fire. Some of the files had been burned. What youâre looking for is most likely among them!â
âWhat!â Rae was taken aback. âWhen did it happen?â
âItâs been quite a long time. Because the fire didnât spread, so no one knew. It only burned a few of the files so that it could be ignored!â
Rae was feeling a bit dejected. Could it be that the file of the case was burned?
She took a look at her watch. It was already eleven oâclock!
Rae shuddered as she remembered Marcel had told her to meet him at half past ten. So, she walked hurriedly towards the office.
When she returned to the office, Marcelâs office door had been locked!
Rae knocked on the door but received no response. She could only return to the office. When Lexie saw her coming back, she told her nosily, âYouâre done. Captain Hopkins was so furious just now. He seemed to really have endocrine dyscrasia. His face even turned pale. Tsk, tsk, tsk. He doesnât seem to be someone with such a bad temper!â
âWhat did he say?â Rae was a bit worried. After all, she had forgotten about the time. She was too anxious and eager to find out the answer quickly.
However, it had already been five years since this incident happened. How could it be so simple to conduct a thorough investigation?
She felt guilty for delaying Marcelâs work because of this.
âHe told you to meet him at his office in the afternoon!â
âAlright!â Rae nodded.
âArenât you scared?â Lexie asked her.
âI have something to deal with right now!â Rae didnât want to continue talking with the nosy girl, Lexie. She remembered the help from Gustavo these few times. So, she took the phone and dialed Gustavoâs number. The phone soon showed that the call had been connected. Gustavoâs voice came from the other end of the phone.
âHello? Rae, do you have anything for me?â
âAre you busy now?â Rae asked.
âNo!â
âYou donât have an appointment at noon, do you?â Rae asked again.
âNo!â
âWell then. Iâll treat you to lunch!â Rae said.
Gustavo seemed to freeze for a moment before saying a word in joy, âOkay!â
âThen, when we get off work, weâll eat Sichuan cuisine at the restaurant across the street!â Rae said again.
âNo problem. Iâll see you later at 11:50 a.m. at your office!â
âAlright!â
Rae called the hospital again after hanging up the phone. She got the news that Mrs. Baxterâs infection was now under control. She woke up for a minute, but she was too tired, so she fell back asleep.
Raeâs mood suddenly improved much, and she felt hopeful. She put down her phone and unconsciously curled her lips.
Gustavo dressed up in his new clothes for his meeting with Rae at 11:50 a.m. He wore a formal shirt and came to the office. As soon as he saw Rae, he smiled and said, âRae, letâs go?â
âOkay!â Rae gave him a smile as well. They made their way downstairs together while talking with each other.
However, when they arrived at the Sichuan cuisine restaurant, Rae noticed that Marcel was having lunch with a woman!
They sat by the window. The woman looked beautiful and dressed fashionably. Even though it was in the late autumn, she was still dressed in a dress. Her shoes were also very high, and she had a nice shape. She looked pretty nice!
Gustavo also noticed them and whispered, âCaptain Hopkins is here as well!â
Rae smiled and expressed that it was alright, âItâs fine. Weâll have our lunch after we greet him!â
Gustavo and Rae approached them. Marcel had already had his eye on Rae for quite some time. He noticed them as Rae and Gustavo talked and laughed while crossing the road from the work unit just now. They crossed the road and walked here. He was a bit surprised because he didnât expect them to come up to eat together.
Rae walked over and greeted him magnanimously, âCaptain Hopkins!â
âYes!â Marcel didnât show a lot of emotion.
Gustavo also said, âCaptain Hopkins, are you having lunch? We go there first!â
Marcel had no intention to introduce the pretty woman to them. Rae gave the pretty woman a light smile before following Gustavo to the other side.
They chose a seat by the window and sat down.
A Moment in Destiny ï¤Chapter 966 Burst into Tears The convenient Bride ï¤Chapter 414: There Is Nothing Happier Than This (Ending)
Predestined Marriage They were too far apart to hear the sound from Marcelâs table.
At Marcelâs table, the girl noticed Marcel frowning with a glum expression and a bit of hidden anger. She burst out laughing like a little fox.
Marcel poured her a cup of tea, raised his eyelids, and gazed at her. He asked, âWhat are you laughing at?â
âIâm laughing at you!â The girl admitted in an easy manner.
Marcel paid no attention to her.
âMarcel, I think you are like an unsatisfied little boy with a short fuse now!â The girl laughed loudly and approached him. She asked him across the table, âAre my guesses correct?â
âWhatâs correct? If you donât have anything for me, go back quickly!â
âI have something to do!â The lady laughed. âIâve come to see what youâre up to! You came to City B without a word. What do you want to do?â
Marcel said in a deep voice, âEllen George!â
The girl, who was called Ellen George, grinned, âActually, I came here to bring my brother over. He was recently in a bad mood. I couldnât take care of him, so I brought him here. Marcel, just keep him under control! Adam is just too annoying!â
Marcel frowned again and was a bit surprised, âWhere is he now?â
âAt the hotel! I left him at the hotel. He said he would stay well at the hotel!â Ellen was still playful. âHe should be at the hotel. There is room service there. Furthermore, itâs not that his legs are incapable of walking at all. That shouldnât be an issue! Donât worry!â
