My Fair Stunner novel (Faye and Colin) novel Chapter 145

Chapter 145 A Heart-to-heart Talk

Colin was not exaggerating. He had heard that Shepard and Daisy were disfigured beyond recognition in the car accident. A few years ago, he watched a horror movie with his cousins, including Faye.

In the movie, a female ghost was caught in a fire before her death, and her face was completely disfigured.

Faye still remembered Faye's ghastly pale face when she watched the movie. He saw her run into the kitchen and crouch in the corner, shivering.

Hearing the sound of the slap, Tiffany ran over and stood in front of Helen. "Colin, how could you beat her? Helen is just a kid. Kids are always curious. She just wants to share something with Faye." Colin chuckled, "Is she a kid? She's in her twenties now."

Tiffany was lost for words. "Since Helen is so curious about the disfigured face of the dead, I can try to ask the policemen to keep Jared's dead body for another night so that she can see enough of it."

Tiffany was speechless. Every Farrell knew what kind of person Colin was. He was a man who meant what he said.

Tiffany dared not to offend Colin, so turned to look at Old Mr. Farrell. Old Mr. Farrell gasped for breath with rage, his chest heaving. "Enough!" he stormed.

The living room fell into silence. Faye stood holding her breath, and clenched her hand, trying to suppress the tremendous anger in her heart.

She told herself that it was not the time. This farce lasted until Jared's body was carried away at noon, and then a sergeant-like policeman came in to talk to Old Mr. Farrell. "Mr. Farrell, have you lost any valuables at home?"

There was a thoughtful look on Old Mr. Farrell's face and then he smiled. "To be honest, I haven't done statistics on these things at home."I didn't count the valuables at home."

The sergeant nodded and said, "After our investigation, we found that he might have stolen something and was going to run away from the backyard. Unexpectedly, he fell into the swimming pool and drowned because he couldn't swim."

Old Mr. Farrell sighed and said in a compassionate tone, "It's just a cheap thing. I don't care if I can have it back, but the case..."

The sergeant replied with a smile, "You're very kind-hearted. I may as well tell you the person died from drowning and it has nothing to do with your family."

And it was the final verdict on Jared's death.

When the police left, Old Mr. Farrell sat on the sofa and said slowly, "Since Jared is dead, this is the end of those things. No one is allowed to look into them."
