Chapter 714
"Ms. Abbey..." Marguerite's voice was a raspy whisper, trembling with each word, "Does this mean that
Penelope's car accident... the culprit behind it all is Yuna?"
"Well..." Abbey hesitated, choosing her words carefully. "We can't jump to conclusions just yet. The evidence we
have is limited to that one surveillance video from the parking lot. It's not enough to definitively tie Penelope's
death to Yuna.
But there are a couple of red flags.
First off, Yuna lied to us. She denied meeting Penelope that day, which we now know wasn't true.
Secondly, | had a buddy in the traffic department run Yuna's license plate, and it turns out she canceled her
registration overnight right after the incident.

With these facts alone, we have every reason to bring Yuna in for another round of questioning."
Hearing this, Marguerite felt a conviction settle in her heart.
Yuna was the killer!
Everything added up - Yuna's behavior these past few days, her lies to the police, and the hasty cancellation of
her car registration. It was almost too clear.
Marguerite's mind was in turmoil, but nothing compared to the anger and sorrow boiling within her at the
thought of Yuna killing Penelope.
She wished she could confront Yuna this instant, make her pay dearly for what she'd done. But Marguerite also
knew the importance of following legal procedures and the need for concrete evidence.
"Ms. Abbey, what kind of evidence do we need to officially charge Yuna?" "The most direct evidence would be
surveillance footage, but the remote mountain roads where the accident happened are not covered by cameras.
What the police need to do now is locate the vehicle Yuna had deregistered and compare its tire tracks to those
found at the scene of Penelope's accident."
"And if we can't find it?"
Abbey paused on the other end of the line, then quickly replied, "If we can't find it, Yuna remains a suspect at
best and could be released due to lack of evidence.
But don't worry, Marguerite, there's no such thing as a perfect crime. If someone has done something wrong,
they've left a trail.
I've got my hands on hospital surveillance footage that clearly indicates Yuna's unusual behavior. With this, | can
request a focused investigation by the department.
Once the police get involved, we're bound to find something."
Abbey's words offered Marguerite a sliver of comfort, yet her heart ached even

Yuna's motive was a mystery that Marguerite couldn't unravel.
It was beyond her wildest dreams that Penelope's own daughter could be her killer.
She felt an injustice on Penelope's behalf, yet her mind was filled with questions. Why would Yuna harm her own
mother?
And what was Penelope so desperate to tell her?
"Marguerite, unless there's anything else, | need to head back to the station. We're setting up a special task
force and bringing Yuna in for questioning again." "Wait, Ms. Abbey."
Marguerite instinctively held her back, "Ms. Abbey, can we wait a few days before bringing Yuna in?"
Abbey was clearly puzzled, "Why? Don't you want to get to the bottom of this as quickly as possible and seek
justice for Penelope?"
