Chapter 1252 New Evidence
With the defense of their lawyer, the police believed their testimonies. Although the
evidence and witnesses pointed to another culprit, it didn't absolve Jewel of suspicion. She
was granted bail but forbidden to leave Mastar until the case was resolved. The group
persisted until nightfall when the police finally released Jewel.
After taking a few steps toward her, Olivia embraced her and said soothingly, "It's okay
now. Everything is okay."
However, Jewel glanced at Albert and River standing nearby and asked, "Do you have new
evidence?"
Olivia replied, "Mr. Bleu and the others provided testimony. They encountered the
murderer who killed Brett that night."
Jewel was surprised upon hearing this and asked, "Who was it?"
"It's not certain yet, but we can rule you out. The person had a red rose tattoo on their
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtankle, and their weapon was a wire."
Jewel widened her eyes in astonishment and asked again, "Is it Blood Rose?"
"It's not confirmed yet. We'll have to rely on the police investigation for more evidence."
After saying this, Olivia held her hand and said, "Let's go back."
After leaving the police station, Olivia looked at Albert and said, "Mr. Bleu, thank you for
your willingness to testify. I appreciate your help and will surely express my gratitude in
the future."
Then, he replied, "You're welcome. As I said, I consider you a friend. Don't make it seem
like everything I do has some ulterior motive."
Nonetheless, Olivia smiled and replied, "All right."
After parting ways, Olivia, Eugene, and the others returned to the clinic.
Ellen, still shaken by fear, hurriedly greeted them and hugged Olivia. "Jewel, are you
okay?"
"Godmother, I'm fine. Sorry for worrying you."
"As long as you're okay! Thankfully, they rescued you. By the way, you must be hungry. I'll
cook for you." After saying this, Ellen went straight to the kitchen.
Jewel then watched her godmother's bustling figure and felt a warm feeling spread in her
heart.
In the meantime, Alex felt his throat drying out and thought about how much easier things
would be for him and Jewel if his mother were more like Ellen.
At this moment, Jewel took a couple of steps toward Olivia and said apologetically, "Albert
helped us because of you. I didn't expect you to owe him a favor."
"Even without this incident, he would have found another way. After all, he wouldn't give
up on finding the necklace. Don't overthink it. Did you face any suffering inside?"
"No, they treated me quite well."
"That's good, then. Go home, take a shower, and get a good night's sleep. Don't think too
much."

Jewel replied, "Okay, bring me along the next time you meet Albert."
Olivia agreed, "Sure."
On the other hand, George had just returned and overheard their conversation. He
couldn't help but ask, "What did Albert say? Did he ask you to exchange the necklace?"
Olivia replied, "No."
Then, he snorted, "He must be worried you'd give him a fake one."
"I don't know his intentions, but no matter what, he did help us today."
"Well, don't overthink it. Even if he helped us, we could repay the favor through other
means. Why insist on using the necklace?"
Olivia responded, "If giving him the necklace will settle things, then so be it. I was
planning to give it to him anyway. Keeping it in my possession serves no purpose. It's their
lack of sincerity that prevents a discussion about it. As long as he guarantees I won't be
involved in their political struggles this time, I'll give it to him."
However, George asked again, "Well, what about Blood Rose?"
She replied, "We've provided the information to the police. They should set up a trap for
her, which will work unless she never leaves Double Dragon Court."
