Chapter 443

All she got in response was the man's silence.

He did not even seem to hear her at all, let alone notice that she was freezing.

Tara said in a sobbing tone, "Don't be like this, Odell. I don't want to see you like this."

Her answer was the man's hoarse roar, "Get out!"

Tara immediately shivered in fear.

At that moment, Cliff came from the side and said to her, "Ms. Avery, why don't you go down

first?"

No words would get through to Odell now. She would only cause more trouble if she kept trying

to persuade him.

Tara had no choice but to agree and turned around to leave.

Cliff walked up behind Odell and said in a low voice, "Master Carter, they said that the wind was

very strong yesterday, and this area is connected to the river. They suspect that Mrs. Carter was

likely washed into the river."

Odell growled, "Then fish her up from the river!"

Cliff hurriedly said, "A group of people has rushed there."

Odell pursed his lips.

Cliff did not dare to say anything more and stood by carefully.

Behind a large rock, Tara heard their conversation clearly.

The corners of her mouth curled up secretly.

'They haven't found her even after searching the entire night. Even if Sylvia was carried away by

the river current, she would most probably be dead.'

Another day passed.

The sky turned dark.

Rescue teams were still combing through Cloudy Heart Lake and the nearby river.

The temperature also plummeted.

The man sat in the same place, his back straight and motionless.

Cliff came up from the foot of the hill.

He looked at Odell's cold back and came up carefully, not daring to make a sound.

Then, Odell asked him, "Have they found her?"

Cliff said in a low voice, "They found her wheelchair, but not her body."

After he finished, the air was silent again.

Odell did not say anything more and simply stared at the lake below.

His back was thin, and he looked very lonely and depressed in the night sky.

Cliff could not help but say, "Master Carter, it's been a day and a night. Mrs. Carter is probably—"

"Shut your mouth!" Odell suddenly roared.

Cliff hurriedly closed his mouth.

The night wind was icy, blowing incessantly from the lake.

The man sat where he was, his brows knitted together.

After a long time, when his emotions calmed down a little, he asked, "What did the police say?"

Cliff replied, "They came to investigate twice. The elevator only had one record of going up last

night and didn't come down. They also found Mrs. Carter's fingerprints on the buttons. They

retrieved the nearby surveillance footage, but this area is a blind spot, so they couldn't find out

whether anyone else came here.

However, most people went to wait for the fireworks show at that time, and the staff also said

that people don't come here at night. Thus, the assumption is that Mrs. Carter committed

suicide."

Odell frowned deeply.

His mood which had calmed down suddenly bubbled in anger again. The veins at the comers of

his forehead throbbed.

'Suicide?

'How could she have committed suicide?

'She did so many evil things. She didn't even feel guilty after hurting Grandma. How could she be

vulnerable enough to commit suicide?

'At most, she just had some mental issues!'

After a long time, he said in a cold voice, "Tell them that there's no way she committed suicide.

Tell them to continue investigating!"

"Yes, sir."

Cliff answered and went down.

The icy cold wind on top of the hill continued to blow.

Odell clenched his fists and stared at the dark lake a few dozen meters below.

'That woman must be playing a trick again. She's just trying to get away from me and break free

from my control.

'It must be!'
