My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 595

"W-Who killed her? Have you found the murderer?" Horace roared as he clenched his fists, emotions spiking.

Jupiter had not expected Horace to confess immediately. He took a sip of his tea and asked calmly, "Where were you last night?"

Face red with anger, Horace glared at Jupiter and asked, "Are you suspecting me of killing my girlfriend?"

Jupiter slammed the table, his tone rising as he shouted, "Answer my question!"

Clearly frightened, Horace leaned back in his chair obediently and replied, "I was at Starry Sky Bar with a client last night!"

"Who was your client? Roughly what time were you there?"

Horace looked up at Jupiter. "I can't disclose anything about my client.”

Jupiter sneered. "So, you're not going to cooperate?”

Having calmed himself by now, Horace merely replied, "You can only detain me for 24 hours without evidence. By then, be prepared to receive a letter from my lawyer."

At the man’s denial, Angelica coldly said, "It’s because we have evidence that we arrested you. Your cooperation may lead to more lenient sentencing. If you resist, the severity might only increase.

"If you confess now and show remorse, you might even have a chance of suspending your death sentence.”

At the mention of a suspended death sentence, Horace's pupils shrunk faintly.

Jupiter caught this slight change in his expression. He took another sip of water from his thermos and followed up on what Angelica said, "You know Geordi and Sorn, right?"

Horace nodded and admitted, "Yes, we're from the same village."

“Did you meet each other yesterday?" Jupiter continued and Horace shook his head at that.

“No, we haven't met for a long time."
