Chapter 85
Chapter 85:
Dolores looked down at her hand, which was holding a memory card. Dolores frowned, “What is this?”.
Terry looked more serious: “My brother didn’t commit suicide. He was murdered.” It was the same sentence. Dolores wasn’t interested.
“I’m sorry. I have other business to take care of. I’m leaving.” Dolores paid her ticket and headed for the entrance.
At the urgency, Terry ran to her and grabbed her arm, “Six years ago, my brother received a sum of money, which was given to him by a woman who asked him to run over and kill a woman in a car.”
Bang!
Dolores felt as if lightning struck her head.
Someone tried to kill her six years ago?
“You’re the woman my brother was ordered to kill. But luckily you escaped your death, didn’t you?” Terry said his speculation.
After discovering the recording, Terry understood why Dolores found him repulsive and disgusting every time she saw him.noveldrama
Dolores took the memory card from his hand. She looked at it carefully and thought it must be a phone memory card. Only older phones had this type of card. Today’s smart phones had huge internal memory and didn’t need this kind of thing. Dolores put the memory card back in her hand, “Do you have evidence on it?”
“If you have time, we can find a place and talk.” Terry knew Dolores would agree.

Dolores agreed as he had assumed. She also wanted to know who wanted to kill her.
That car accident had almost caused her to lose her babies.
“I know a coffee shop nearby. Let’s go there.” Dolores stepped forward to lead the way.
Terry followed her.
The coffee shop was on the outskirts of the neighborhood. Dolores had seen it last night.
Soon they arrived at the coffee shop. Dolores found a quiet corner and sat down.
“Do you want something to drink?” Although Dolores wanted to find out the truth immediately, she thought Terry needed a drink judging by how thirsty he looked.
“I want some water.” He really was thirsty.
Dolores handed the menu to a waiter, “Bring us two glasses of water first. We’ll let you know when we need something else.”
“Okay.”
The waiter brought two glasses of water. After the waiter walked away and Terry drank a glass of water, Dolores said, “Speak up. What happened?”
“Listen to this first.” Terry pulled out a phone that the memory card fit into. He opened the phone and put the memory card in. He then turned the phone on and found the recording on the memory card before playing it back.
There was only one section of the recording, which should be recorded during a conversation.
“If I do what you said and kill that woman in a car, won’t I end up in jail?”
“Don’t worry. I won’t let you get sued or jailed. We’ll damage the brake on your car ahead of time and then fake a brake failure. You won’t have to take much responsibility for a car accident caused by brake failure. Besides, you are sick and I will also assist you. You should know that you will get a large sum of money after you finish your work. You won’t earn so much money even if you work for your whole life. This is a good deal for you.”
“Don’t worry. Even if they imprison you, I will get you out of there.” The woman seemed very willing to persuade him.
At that moment, Maria not only wanted Dolores to taste the pain of a car accident, but she also wanted her life.
She wanted to make Dolores disappear from this world before Dolores and Matthew divorced. That way, no one would threaten Mary’s position anymore. And Matthew would belong to her and her alone.
But Maria did not know that someone would come to rescue Dolores.
Nor did she know that man took Dolores away from B-town. Dolores was gone for six years. She even gave birth to her babies.
“Based on this recording, I speculate that this woman knew that my brother needed money and that he was a truck driver. So she found him and planned the accident.” Terry put the phone back in his pocket and said.
Dolores rested her head on her hand and thought about the female voice on the recording. It was clear and familiar. She almost recognized the voice the moment she heard it.
It belonged to Helen, who was now Maria.
It was Maria who had caused Jessica to suffer from a mental illness before, which was later controlled and cured by Sampson. So Jessica was like a normal person now. Therefore, Dolores did not want to hold on to her.
The reason she didn’t want to hold on to her was because Maria was Sampson’s sister.
But now…
Dolores had always thought that the car accident was caused by brake failure.
But it wasn’t.
“You know who the woman in the recording is, don’t you?” asked Terry shyly.
Dolores lifted her head and continued to swirl the cup in her hand unevenly. She didn’t answer him, but asked, “I’m curious how you got this recording.”
Terry’s face froze and then he lowered his head.
“You won’t talk?” Dolores dropped the cup and stood up, “Thank you for telling me this.”
Terry suddenly raised his head and looked at her. He asked in amazement,
“Aren’t you going to look into this? Someone tried to kill you.”
Dolores looked blankly at Terry, who seemed very anxious, and said, “It’s my business whether I investigate it or not.”
“But don’t you think that if we work together, the chances of us winning are greater?” If they worked together, he could bring the woman who killed her brother to justice, and Dolores could get revenge on the woman who tried to kill her. Wasn’t this a win-win cooperation?
Why did Dolores seem so calm and indifferent after learning the truth?
“But you’re hiding something from me, aren’t you?” the truth shocked her, but it didn’t make her lose her mind. There was something Terry wasn’t confessing to her.
Terry lowered her head and her nervous hands kept rubbing together.
“After you tell me everything, I’ll think about whether to cooperate with you.” Dolores looked out the window and said plainly, “That woman, she’s not someone you can bring to justice with just some evidence. If it were before, it wouldn’t be so difficult.
But now Maria was a member of the Herbert Family, who had both money and power.
How could it be easy to bring her to justice?
“Wait…” When Dolores reached the door, Terry stood up and looked behind her, “Sit down.”
Dolores looked back at him and observed, “Have you made up your mind?” Terry pursed his lips tightly and nodded.
Dolores sat back down on her stool.
“If you want to cooperate with me, you have to tell me everything you know.”
Terry took a deep breath and looked at Dolores. “I had been looking into my brother’s death, but I couldn’t find any useful leads until I got a call.”
“What call?”
“My brother kept something in Ping An Insurance when he was alive. When the locker room lease expired, no one went looking for it. So the staff called me.” Terry said truthfully, “I am the second number my brother put on the registration form. They couldn’t get through to the first number, which was my brother’s, so they contacted me.”
Dolores said nothing and listened to him silently.
“Wow, looks like my brother saved it on purpose.” Terry lowered his head.
“Why did he do that?” Dolores looked at him and asked.
Don’t speak ill of the dead. Terry didn’t want to expose the disgusting things his brother did when he was alive. After all, they both shared a mother.
Terry lowered his head and kept silent.
Dolores waited for him for several minutes, but he still said nothing.
“If you won’t tell me the truth, and I don’t know the whole thing, how can I cooperate with you? Now that you don’t trust me, why did you stop me from leaving?”
“I do trust you.” Terry instantly denied.
“It’s possible that my brother recorded the conversation on purpose when he was talking to that woman. But maybe he found her later and wanted to blackmail her, threaten her with the recording. So he was killed.” In a word, her brother died out of greed.
Dolores now realized the whole thing. Her brother was the driver who was bought by Maria to kill her with a car accident. After the accident, Dolores went abroad. But her brother was too greedy and came back to blackmail Maria after he was paid. So her brother was killed.
“What are you going to do? You’re not going to let the woman who tried to murder you go free, are you?” Terry asked eagerly.
“It’s all clear now, but it won’t be easy to turn this old case around.”
Dolores stood up, “I have something else to attend to today.”
“I can take you there.” Terry got up too, “I have a car.” Dolores looked at him and nodded.
When they got into the car, Terry wrote her number on a piece of paper and gave it to her, “This is my phone number. You can call me anytime. I’ll introduce myself again. This is Terry.”
Dolores took the paper, “I’ll memorize it. You can call me Dolores.”
“Okay.” Terry concentrated on driving and soon the car pulled up in front of the decorating store.
Theresa waited at the door anxiously. Seeing Dolores, she ran to her,
“What took you so long?”
