Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber)

Chapter 520 It Wasn't Makenna

Elias squatted next to the dead body and answered without raising his head, "She jumped off from the

building. Her head reached the ground first. Her death is caused by a cracked skull. Besides..."

He raised Makenna's arm and pinched from her fingers to the shoulder. Suddenly, he looked confused.

The bones...

Elias shook off the arm and grabbed the other. He also repeatedly pinched from the fingers up to the

shoulder. Then he squinted. A dark light flashed through his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Jared asked as he was confused by Elias's actions.

Elias stood up and didn't answer him. He looked at Officer Everett. "Send the body to the mortuary. I'll

do an autopsy."

"I need to ask my supervisor for permission first," Officer Everett said with a frown.

Elias took off his gloves and said, "Make it ASAP. It's essential to your case."

Officer Everett looked at him and then at the dead body on the ground. He had to walk away to make a

phone call.

Jared squinted at Elias. "What on earth have you found? I can tell there's something wrong with the

corpse from your expression just now."

Elias pushed up his glasses. "Yes, there's something wrong with the dead body. I suspect this is not

Makenna."

"What did you say?" Jared's eye pupils shrank. His expression changed. "Not Makenna?"

Elias hummed. "I'm seventy percent sure right now. As you know, I used to be a part-time legal

examiner abroad, so I know human bones. When I touched the arms, the bones on the arms didn't

match Makenna's. Although the height of this body was similar to hers, the bones were bigger than

hers. Hence..."

Before he finished his words, Officer Everett came back. "Dr. Lansdale, my supervisor has agreed on

the autopsy. Thank you for your hard work."

Elias nodded slightly. "Not at all. As long as you wire me the autopsy fee on time."

Officer Everett's lips twitched. "No worries. We will.

Then he asked the policeman to keep the scene and carry the dead body to the mortuary.

Elias looked at Jared and continued, "I have Makenna's DAN in my hospital. Hence, I'll extract the DNA

from this body and

compare it with hers. If the report shows the DNA doesn't match, it'll prove this isn’t Makenna. She has

escaped."

Jared clenched his fists, emanating a murderous aura. His face was icy-cold. "I know. Please go

ahead. Leave the rest to me."

Elias put his hands in the pockets of the green operation gown and turned away.

Jared stood motionlessly, watching the policemen pick up the corpse. His thin lips pressed tightly.

Heady tempest surged in his

eyes,

He believed Elias. This dead body wasn't Makenna's possibly.

Earlier, on the way here, he thought many questions about Makenna's suicide, such as the time and

the reason.

Hence, he was worried if anything unexpected had happened.

The fact showed that he didn't overthink.

The unexpected incident happened— Makenna didn't commit suicide. It was her substitute.

Elias said the bones didn't match hers. Also, the dead's face.

Jared looked up at the building.

He recalled that Makenna’s ward was on the tenth floor. She would die at the scene after jumping off,

but her face couldn't be

beyond recognition at all.

The face of the dead body was completely ruined. No one could tell what it looked like initially.

At the first glimpse of this dead body, Jared felt weird and sensed something wrong, but he couldn't tell

what was wrong.

Until Elias toid him this wasn't Makenna, Jared realized that the face didn't seem right.

He could be sure the face on this body had been ruined before the person jumped off. Hence, when it

landed on the ground,

no one could tell whose bocly it was.

Otherwise, Makenna would be exposed with a different face.

Thinking of that, Jared pursed his lips into a stiff line.

Makenna could manage to escape under the police's watch and find herself a substitute. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Jared realized that they had underestimated her.

Soon, the corpse was taken away. Only the undried blood was left on the lawn.

Jared glanced at the blood and walked to Amber.

Amber was drinking the water bought by Ben. Seeing him come back, she hurriedly closed her bottle

and opened the other for

him. "Drink some water, Jared. It'll ease the discomfort."

Although she knew Jared didn't fear that horrible scene, she believed he would feel a bit uncomfortable

after staring at it for a

long while.

Hence, it would be better for him to drink some water.

Jared looked at the water bottle and loosened his frown. He took it over and said, "Thanks."

“You are welcome.” Amber shook her head and glanced over at the scene. "Has the autopsy been

done? I saw them carry

away the dead body."

“Not yet. It'll be carried into the mortuary. Elias found some clues." Jared sat next to her.

Amber moved aside to make ample space for him. “What clues?"

“The person who jumped off might not be Makenna," Jared answered while looking at her.

Amber's eye pupils shrank.

Ben also gaped. “Not... not her?"

Jared nodded. He told them Elias's words and his thoughts and suspicions.

Amber couldn't find her tongue for a while upon hearing his words. She said agitatedly, "How could it

be possible? If Makenna

didn't jump off, who would it be? She's on the execution outside prison, watched by the police twenty-

four hours a day.

She could never manage to leave the ward. How could she find the substitute for jumping off? How did

she escape from the

ward? This doesn't make any sense."

Ben nodded and echoed, "I agree, Mr. Farrell. It's impossible."

Jared cast down his eyes. "Nothing is impossible. Makenna cannot go out, but others can enter. As

long as the person entered

and exchanged her outfit with Makenna, the latter could manage to hide from the police and leave the

ward."

"Uh..." Amber and Ben were agape.

Jared's words made sense. Makenna couldn't leave her ward, but others could enter her ward.

If the dead body was confirmed not to belong to Makenna, it would prove that Jared's suspicion was

correct.

Someone entered Makenna’'s ward, exchanged her identity with her, and jumped off from the window

to put on the show that

Makenna committed suicide for escaping from going to jail.

"I need to investigate how Makenna managed to find someone to be her substitute," Jared took a sip of

water and said ina deep tone.

Amber was silent, goosebumps appearing all over.

Right then, Jared's phone rang.

He put down the water bottle and pulled out his phone. Seeing the caller ID, he frowned. Then he stood

up. "Please excuse me. I need to answer a call."

"Yes." Amber nodded.

Jared walked forward, followed by Ben.

He glanced at the caller ID on Jared's phone just now. It was from the company. He knew Jared would

give him some instructions soon.
