Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred)

“Oh” he realized and quickly reported, “Mr. Alfred sent these people. He’s worried about your safety and specially assigned them to protect you Nothing will go unnoticed, not even a fly. Since you have an exam tomorrow, he didn’t want to disturb you, so he didn’t inform you in advance.”

Lea finally relaxed, a warm feeling rising in her heart, her mood settling. Indeed, as long as Alfred was there, she was content. “Okay” she responded softly, her voice gentle. “Tell him the mole has been caught and is safe here. I will be fine.”

“Alright. 11l call him right away,” Jason said.

After hanging up, Jason dialed Alfred’s number immediately and recounted how Lea had flushed out the mole. “Mr. Alfred, you have no idea how terrifying Miss Berry was. When Jeffrey found out, he almost fainted on the spot. Even Mr. Berry and the others were stunned.”

On the other end of the line, Alfred’s lips curved into a charming smile. He could easily imagine Lea’s calm and confident demeanor at moment. She had never been ordinary, but the more he got to know her, the more she continued to amaze him.

“Thadn’t even mentioned the people stationed outside to her, and she already noticed them. Is her level of vigilance essential?” Jason said.

The people sent to protect her aren’t even as capable as her.

Alfred instructed, “Keep an eye on her around the clock, ensuring she doesn’t encounter any trouble.

“Understood,” Jason replied,

Lea was in good spirits for the exain the following day and performed excellently. After completing the paper, she double checked her answers to ensure accuracy before submitting them. After the exam, Jason was at the examination venue to pick her up. Lea got into the car, which drove about 300 feet away from the examination venue.

Jason spoke up, saying. “Miss Berry, this afternoon, the police retrieved a body from the river, claiming it to be Jeffrey’s. They’ve informed Mr. Berry to come and identify it

Lea froze, with her hand gripping her backpack tightly, she thought, “Dead?”

“Let’s go check it out,” Lea said.

“Okay,” Jason replied.

As the car headed towards the police station, Lea contacted Chris Foster, asking her to arrange a technician to trace jeffrey’s movements since he left the old mansion last night.

The car pulled up outside the police station. It was already past six in the evening, and the setting sun was casting a crimson hue on the horizon. Lea stepped out of the car and immediately spotted Matilda assisting Christian out of the police station. Frowning slightly, she went to greet them.

Christian’s eyes were bloodshot, and his tears were glistening. His posture stooped, and his body trembled. Without the support, he wouldn’t have been able to maimain balance. Matilda, with swollen eyes and having cried, was supporting him.

“Grandpa, what’s wrong!” Lea asked.

Matilda looked at her, her expression guarded but quickly softened. Sering Christian choked up and unable to speak, she spoke up to explain. “Jeffrey has passed away. He was one of his last remaining friends from the unit in the past, How could he not be saddened?” With that, Maulda reached up to wipe away the tears streaming down her cheeks, empathizing with the grief.

Lea wondered how much sincerity Matilda possessed. She restrained her disgust and asked, “How did he der

“According to the forensic examination, it was ruled as suicide,” Matilda replied.

“Suicide?” This outcome was within her expectations. But could the forensic examination indeed find nothing? Or was there something suspicious “But last night, when he left the old mansion, he didn’t seem like someone who would commit suicide,” Lea said.

Jeffrey valural has life greatly. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have refused to disclose a single word about the mastermind behind him. Lea was very confident it was a murder.

Maulda’s eyes darkened. “This is the forensic examination result. If you have any doulits, gu anul talk to them,” she said confidently and unabashedly

Lea felt a pang in her bran jeffry’s death seemed to have nothing to do with Marilla.

At this point, Christian had calmed down a bit. “He left a suicide note,” he said, pulling out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket.

2:37 PM

Lea took the note, noticing the watermarks from being soaked in water and the messy handwriting, but the overall message was sull discernible. From beginning to end, his words conveyed a sense of despair about the world, mentioning his diagnosis of PTSD. Finally, he instructed for his organs to be donated. From the note, it indeed seemed that he had committed suicide. When considering the forensic examination results, there didn’t seem to be any evident loopholes,

est person to him was Christian. And now Jeffrey was gone, there was nothing to argue about. They would see to his funeral arrangements. It was up to the adults to handle his affairs, and Lea did not

mervene.

Christian wanted to return to the old mansion, and although Lea had many tasks awaiting her attention, she knew she had to accompany him back at this time. Matilda joined them as well

With the responsibility of arranging Jeffrey’s funeral resting on their shoulders, Christian’s advanced age and the demanding nature of corporate affairs left him physically exhausted and emotionally drained from recent serbacks. Lea took the initiative to assist, and he did not refuse her help. They decided to handle the funeral with discretion, arranging for a qitet service and laying him to rest in a cemetery in Vaporleon City, where he could find peace.

As for Helen, she had already arranged for someone to pick her up directly from the examination venue, citing preparations shoot as the reason. In truth, it was to minimize her interactions with the rest of the Berry family,

Upon arriving at the old mansion, while the sky was not completely dark, she received a message from Chris. It stated that after leaving the old mansion last night. Jeffrey had gone to Fraley Hospital, leaving only shortly before dawn. Then, his body was found in the river in the afternoon around two o’clock. She had already warned him not to go, but it seemed he went anyway. It wasn’t hard to understand; he was always driven by greed and likely went to demand compensation.

The fact that they dared act at this time showed their cruelty and lack of scruples, not to mention their disregard for Christian and the old mansion. Lea turned to Jason and said, “Go to the hospital

“Alright. I’ll get the car,” he said, taking the wheel and driving her to the hospital.

Having just finished her exam, Christian was eager for Lea to relax, especially considering his busy schedule. He didn’t pay much attention to her. With Frank missing and Matilda and Nixon Donovan having already handled the aftermath of the kidnapping case, they had relaxed their surveillance of her. Now, with the funeral arrangements for Jeffrey to attend to, they had even less energy to spare for her. Lea was pretty free at the

moment.

At the headquarters of Riverview Hospital, Lorrand Phoenix was already waiting for her. “I’ve inquired with the forensic teams, and the examination results are solid. I suspect that Jeffrey was under the influence of drugs when he entered the river, and the drugs used to control him are likely to have dissipated from his body quickly, making them undetectabile. It’s similar to what happened to you during the kidnapping”
