Wrong Marriage and Sweet Love

Karl took out his log book and and pen. Then he looked at his watch and said to Juanita, “I have things to take care of, so hurry up and tell me what you know, in detail.”

Juanita sat in the seat across from him and grunted, “That’s the kind of professional ethic you need.”

“Let’s get started.” Karl raised his long eyelashes slightly, ready to record.

“No coffee?” Juanita looked up and around and questioned, “I see that other police officers have offered coffee, or tea, to the people being questioned. That’s not very good service from you. We’re all taxpayers.”

Karl took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. He stood up, went to the coffee machine and made a cup of instant coffee, walked back and put it in front of Juanita, “Okay? Can we start now?”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Juanita’s soulful eyes cooed around, pretending to take two sips and began, “Today Joyce went to R&S Group headquarters for her work, and she arrived at the office around 11:00 am. This is the extra work arranged by Casey. I had nothing to do, so I went to the group to accompany her. By 4:00 pm, Joyce finished the work at hand. She said she was going to the supermarket today to buy groceries and go home to make dinner for grandma. So she let me go first.”

She paused and thought back, “About half an hour or so later, I was shopping and suddenly got a call from Joyce. She said she was too late to explain, and she had returned to the Warner family. She said I should wait about 20 minutes, and if she called me within 20 minutes, it meant she was fine. If she went beyond that time, she told me to call the police. When I didn’t hear from her, I called the police.”

Karl was typing rapidly into the computer, taking notes.

Juanita added, “I think she must have realized that there was danger inside the Warner family before she called me.” Suddenly she stood up and looked nervous. “She just can’t be the murderer. You just have no idea how nice she was to Stephanie. She grew up in an orphanage and now she took Stephanie as her only family. She saved Stephanie’s life. The two of them, Jacqueline and Shelly, were afraid that she would fight for her fortune, and they have been pushing her around. This time they will definitely seize the opportunity to frame her. Just a few days ago, Shelly also framed Joyce and accused her of leaking a car design to a competitor, the Ballard group. Joyce had been lucky enough to get prepared beforehand and Shelly did not get what she want. You must not listen to them.”

“Thank you for the important information. Personal speculation will not be necessary. The law is about evidence, and we’ll be the judge of that.” Karl said seriously.

He raised his hand and looked at his watch, “I should go in and question Joyce, and you can go ahead and contact me again if you remember any useful information.” After saying that, he stood up.

“Wait a minute.” Juanita reached out and took his arm with a pleading look, “Can I see her for a second? Please.”

She showed a pitiful and begging look like a little rabbit. The small lion showing her teeth and claws just now was completely gone.

Karl was stunned by how quickly he changed his face.

“I’m sorry, but the security footage is currently against Joyce, and she is now indeed quite high in the list of suspects. You can’t see her until we find out the truth.” Karl rebuffed.

“Just ten minutes? Two minutes? Okay?” Juanita wouldn’t relent.

“No.” Karl was decisive, “I’m sorry, I’m going to the interrogation room. Please get out of the way.”
