Chapter 678 Indifference(2/2)
Luke and David meet at Jones' house.
David pointed to a blue two-story building, "This is Jones' house. A few months ago, he invited us here for a party."
The Jones house has an open courtyard. David led Luke into the courtyard. At this moment, the door opened and a teenage white girl walked out of the house carrying a bag.
David waved hello, "Are you Mia Oliver?"
The girl glanced at David and said, "Who are you?"
"I'm your father's colleague, David."
"It seems we have never met before."
"Last time, your father invited us to be guests, and I saw your photos."
"You have such a good memory." After the girl finished speaking, she was about to leave, then turned back and said, "By the way, he is not at home."
"I know……
Is there anyone else at home?"
"My mother." After Mia Oliver finished speaking, she was about to leave with her bag, but David stopped her, "Mia Oliver, please wait a moment.
I want to talk to you about your father."
Mia Oliver curled her lips, "I'm not interested in his affairs."
David was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the other party to respond like this, "It won't take up too much of your time. This matter is very important to you."
"OK, then go ahead." Mia Oliver crossed her arms.
"I want to talk to your mother after we meet her."
"Come in with me." Mia Oliver turned towards the house, opened the door, and shouted, "Mom, we have a guest."
"Who is here?" A white woman with brown hair came out and looked at David, "Are you a colleague of Jones?"
"It's me, my name is David."
"Is there a problem?"
"I want to talk about Jones."
The white woman crossed her arms, "Then why didn't you tell him?"
The attitude of the mother and daughter made David a little uncomfortable, "Madam, I am talking to you about Jones very seriously. He is your husband, and I hope you can respect him."
"It seems he didn't tell you that we were divorced."
David was stunned, "When?"
"Half a month ago."
David rubbed his chin and looked at Luke again.
Since she is an ex-wife, there is really no need to say some things. Luke asked, "When was the last time you saw Jones?"
"Before Christmas, he came back to move things."
"Where did he move to?"
Jones' ex-wife shook her head, "I don't know, and I don't want to know."
Jones' daughter Mia Oliver asked, "Wait, my dad never went to work?"
Luke asked, "When was the last time you saw him?"
"It's also before Christmas."
"Do you know where he lives now?"
"Yes, I remember... he seemed to have sent me the address." Mia Oliver said, looking through her phone, "I found it, No. 203, Christopher Community."
Mia Oliver looked at Luke and asked, "Did something happen to him?"
"Is it important? No one here cares about him anyway." With a hint of anger on his face, David turned to the door and said over his shoulder, "By the way, he will never bother you again, ever."
Mia Oliver panicked and asked Luke, "What does he mean? What happened to my father?"
Luke sighed, "David is your father's colleague. He cares about your father very much, but he speaks more straightforwardly. I hope you don't mind."
"What happened to my father?"
"he died."
"What? What did you just say?"
"Last night, Jones was killed."
"Oh my god, you said my father is dead."
"Yes, I am now responsible for investigating his case.
We came here today, firstly, to inform you, and hope you won't be too sad.
The other thing I want to ask is, do you have any clues about Jones’ murder?”
Jones’ ex-wife looked complicated and said, “You lied.
How could he die? It was always him who killed others...
You must be kidding."
"I also hope I'm joking.
But no.
Jones is really dead. Not only is it difficult for you to accept, but the entire Los Angeles Police Department is unwilling to believe it.
All we can do is catch the murderer and avenge Jones.
If you have any clues about Jones' murder, I hope you can tell me."
Mia Oliver shed tears, covered her mouth with her right hand, and choked, "Yesterday, he called me, but I didn't answer..."
