Chapter 735

He looked at me, his eyes slightly moist. "Her mother got a loan through usury and those men

probably learned that Serena’s future as a star was over, so they went to extort money from them.

She couldn't fork out so much money, and those guys weren't good guys, hence the consequence

was imaginable."

I frowned. "They didn’t have to kill her. Someone clearly wanted her dead."

"Are you suspecting me?" Theo asked with a smile.

I said without a single hesitation, "You wouldn't have done that."

He was stunned. "How are you so sure?"

I pursed my lips. "Although Serena isn't smart and has caused lots of trouble, she has no power or

influence. After Grant Corporation terminated her contract, her only way out was to start a new life

in another city with her mother. She had no chance of making waves anymore, so there's no need

for you to end her life. Besides, you're not a vicious person either."

Theo was a man with dignity and would not resort to such underhanded means to retaliate against a

person.

He pulled me into his arms and rested his chin on my head. His voice was low and deep. "I didn't

know your

impression of me in your heart is this good."

I smirked. "You're just average."

Theo smiled but did not say anything else.

"Do you have a lead on this?" I looked up and asked him.

He kissed my forehead. "You shouldn’t interfere in this matter. What you need to do now is read

your books and memorize what you need to."

Frankly speaking, this matter really had nothing to do with me, so I simply kept quiet about it.

As we entered October, the seven-day holiday that Munchkin had been looking forward to finally

arrived.

Cassey often disturbed me during this time. After learning that I was about to enroll in Canona

University, she asked me to meet at Canona University one day. After going, I learned that she had

pulled some strings to get me the qualifications to audit a course.

On this day after class, I bumped into Caleb, Cassey's fiance. The man was tall, slender, and

appeared to have a warm personality. The glasses resting on his face made him look even more

elegant.

I had attended several of his lessons, and Cassey had also told him about me. When I bumped into

him, I waved my hand to greet him. "Mr. Caleb, just finished a class?"

He stood on the same spot and nodded his head with

a smile.

I walked up to him. "Do you have class later?"

He shook his head with a faint smile. "How was your class?"

"The lecturer is very knowledgeable," I said, walking toward the university gate while hugging my

books." Are you going to pick Cassey up now?"

He chuckled. "Not today. Someone from my family is coming over and I need to go to the airport to

pick them up."

I was curious and could not help but ask, "Are your parents coming over?"

Their wedding date was coming up. Caleb's hometown was in Salt City, so his parents were

probably here to attend their wedding.

He nodded with a smile.

When we arrived at the car park, he had to leave to attend to some urgent matters. After bidding

farewell, I was ready to go home.

I got in the car and was just about to start the car engine when a car drove up in front of me.

The window rolled down and I saw the driver. It was Matthew.

I frowned and got out of the car, asking, "What do you want?" "Where are you going?" He got out of

the car as well, putting both hands in his pockets, looking quite wanton.
