As soon as Gerrard finished speaking, he felt the temperature in the room drop several degrees.
Damon’s expression had darkened noticeably.
Still, Gerrard asked, “You really don’t remember anything? N was your nephew’s wife. Even if you don’t remember her name, surely her face should h
N was beautiful–the kind of beauty that was hard to forget. Although Gerrard had only met her once, her image remained vivid in his mind.
Damon’s face grew colder as he tried to recall the name and face of rk’s ex–wife. Yet, his mind was

Now, discovering that N was rk’s ex–wife left Damon undeniably shocked. How had he be entangled with her?
Everything seemed to be traced back to the car ident five years ago. There was a very

However, just as his hand touched the phone, he paused.
Based on the evidence Gerrard had uncovered, it seemed likely that Spencer had betrayed him. Not only Spencer–
perhaps everyone in the Sumners had been lying to him.
As he mulled over this revtion, his phone suddenly rang.
