Chapter 413 Chapter 413 Suspect

He took it down in his notepad to make a report on the case. Now the question arises, who wanted to kill Nexus?

He read the files about Nexus in Martin\'s office. Nexus was known to be a rookie alchemist of an unknown origin. There were several encounters if written in the file but none of them were offensive or declared to be offensive in any way.

Even the people of town called him a kind and generous person who had helped them a lot without getting anything in return.

So far, there was no complaint about him and any action noticed from his side which might gain him an enemy.

He never had any feud with any person in the town, it was hard to believe if he had one with the police department. There was nothing mentioned about his affairs with the government as well. His history seemed clean with paper.

Again, his investigation led him nowhere. Tom got stuck with the case and a lack of clues would make it impossible to solve this case.

Tom sighed deeply and inhaled. He turned pages of his report on the case. Going back through everything in the case if he had missed anything important. Now the case got frozen, his investigation stalled.

For the time being, he couldn\'t do much till the coroner\'s report came out. He returned to his home and put the papers down before heading for bed. This entire investigation depends on the report, and Tom had to wait patiently.

Mary Kay was sitting in her room, deeply indulging in the papers he had her gaze on. Wrinkles appeared on her forehead, indicating she was thinking about an important matter.

Her fingers tapped on the wooden table while other hands went for the cup of tea placed in the saucer. Taking a sip of her tea, she put down the papers she just read and stroked her temples.

Apart from the night of the attempt at Nexus\'s assassination, Mary gathered information about Nexus and his meeting with other people to find out the murderer.

There was no solid proof to justify it, but Mary came to a conclusion. She suspected Mike to be the murderer. However, she had doubts about it. Mike worked for her family for a long time and he had been faithful to them.

She knew Mike took things personally, but he could go that far beyond her imagination. Still, it was assumptions made by his reactions around Nexus, but the possibility of Mike being the murderer wasn\'t low.

There were other factors that could be included which clarified Mike disliking Nexus on several things. He had always sided with the opposition party if Nexus was involved. Mary noticed Mike acting weird around him and his body language changing. All she needed to prove that her assumptions were right.

Mary called her butler to gather further information about Mike. She sent a messenger and soon the butler arrived and stood outside Mary\'s chamber.

"My lady, Can I come inside?" The butler asked Mary in a submissive tone.

"Yes, you can." Mary permitted him to enter the chamber, and the butler stood a few steps away from her with his head bowing lower in respect.

Mary turned around and observed the butler from head to toe before walking right in front of him and said, "I hope you will answer me honestly with each question I will ask from you." Mary\'s authentic tone alerted the butler and his outcomes of dishonesty appeared in front of his eyes. He bowed lower and responded back.

"My lady, I would never or dare to disrespect you. My family had work for your family and it\'s my duty to serve you till my last breath. I will answer all of your queries with honesty."

Mary seemed to be impressed with her butler\'s word and crossed her arms below her tender breasts. She tilted her head and asked the butler, "I need to know about something important. It\'s Mike! Where was he at the night of the celebration? He wasn\'t here for a long time and I know it never happened before." Mary\'s sudden query about Mike\'s whereabouts made the butler confused.

"Yes, my lady! Young man Mike was present during the celebration, but he left the palace shortly. I had noticed him leaving when I confronted him about it. Mike informed me about his visit to \'HEAVEN ON EARTH\'. He was looking for Angel in the brothel." The butler responded to Mary.

Mary remained silent for a few seconds and nodded her head. "Is that all you know?" She inquired further from the butler.

"Yes, my lady! That\'s all I know so far." The butler responded.

"Fine! You can leave." Mary dismissed him, and the butler left the chamber to focus on his duties. But Mary wasn\'t satisfied with Butler\'s information. He was honest, but she doubted Mike for giving false information to him. Toi clears the doubts. She called her messenger and said, "I want you to bring Angel into my chamber. Do as soon as possible. I have wasted a lot of time already." The messenger bowed and left.

Soon, Angel came to the chambers and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Mary permitted Angel, and she entered the chamber.

The tapping of Angel\'s heels on the marble floor gave another episode of a headache to Mary, but to gather information from her, she passed a faint smile and looked at her with her gaze.

"Lady called me to her chambers. The issue must be sensitive! Right?" Angel asked Mary.

"You can say so. But if you didn\'t behave in my territory, I can punish you for it." Mary warned her, which made Angel shut her mouth immediately.

"So, why did you call me here?" Angel asked while looking at the expensive furniture and beautiful interior of the chamber.

"I need some information about Mike. My butler informed me that Mike left the celebration in the middle and went to the bethel looking for you. Is that true?" Mary asked in a snapping voice.

Angel was shocked but normalized her racing heartbeats.

"He was with me that night. Your butler is right." Angel calms down quickly.

Mary narrowed her gaze at Angel and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"

Angel furrowed her brows at Mary\'s inquiry and responded with a high-pitched voice, "Of course, he was with me that night. Why would I lie to you? I don\'t have a reason and I am not the type that bites the hand who feeds her." Angel\'s response relaxed Mary, but she wasn\'t satisfied with the information she got.

Angel was surprised by Mary\'s sudden change of behavior. She was a rude woman and everyone knew about it but Mary seemed stressed and zoning out, staring into empty spaces. Angel assumed Mary wasn\'t feeling well and random thoughts were running in her mind. Hoping the interrogation ended, she turned her heels to leave.

"Did I tell you to leave, Angel?" Mary snarled at her and Angel dropped her shoulders down while facing her again.

"No! I wasn\'t leaving. I just wanted to admire this beautiful place, not sure when I will visit again."
