371: Chapter 378: Extracting Fingerprints 371: Chapter 378: Extracting Fingerprints Jas Brown was sleeping very deeply and soundly, but Helen Wilson at this mont was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
“You bastard, to go and get married just like that, without even telling a word.” Helen Wilson vented her dissatisfaction by punching the pillow repeatedly.
She had said she didn’t want to advance any further with Jas Brown, but even if she said it was okay, Jas Brown shouldn’t have just done it.
And even if you get married, you don’t have to do it so quickly, let alone not even telling her at all.
Now it was too much, she actually called their house while the couple was in bed, even asking Jas to spend the night at her place; how was she going to face Gina Lopez after that?
After all, Gina and she were acquaintances, and their fathers were comrades in arms.
Just the thought of eting in the future was making Helen Wilson’s face burn.
Helen Wilson was not only angry, but also extrely embarrassed.
How could she possibly fall asleep at this ti?
The next day was the weekend, and Helen Wilson really wanted to call Jas Brown to get him out, firstly to ask the jerk why he got married without telling her, and secondly, she wanted to obtain Jas Brown’s fingerprints—an extrely important matter.
She wouldn’t be satisfied until she figured it out.
But she was afraid Jas might be with Gina Lopez right now; calling him would be even more embarrassing, so she picked up the phone several tis, dialed Jas Brown’s mobile number, but always lacked the courage to actually make the call.
After dawdling at ho for a bit more, Helen Wilson finally couldn’t resist the urge to know the truth, bit the bullet, and dialed the number, but it wasn’t Jas Brown’s, it was Gina Lopez’s.
The phone was quickly answered, and Helen Wilson tried to speak in a very casual tone: “Mr.
Lopez, I’m really sorry about last night, for disturbing you guys, but I really need to speak with Jas about an important matter—it’s work-related.
Please don’t overthink it, is it possible for Jas to co by?
Once I discuss this matter with him today, I promise I won’t bother him anymore.”
Helen Wilson said all this in one breath and waited for Gina Lopez to respond.
At this mont, Gina Lopez was sitting with Jas Brown, gave Jas Brown a glare after hearing Helen Wilson’s words, then said: “It’s okay, I’ll let him go there now.”
“Thank you, I promise, I won’t do anything with him, he won’t be here for more than ten minutes.”
Helen Wilson kept saying this, making Gina Lopez feel sowhat embarrassed.
Although she wasn’t close to Helen Wilson, the relationship between their fathers seed to be good, and they would have to et each other at so point.
It wouldn’t be good to make things too awkward, but for her to say sothing magnanimous was absolutely impossible.
She couldn’t just tell her to keep her husband company, so she said with a smile: “Hehe, he will leave right away.”
After the two hung up the phone, Jas Brown imdiately said, “I didn’t plan to go, don’t look at .”
Gina Lopez gave Jas Brown another glare and said: “Go ahead and drop the act.
However, I’m warning you, if you ss around with Helen Wilson again, don’t bla for not letting you into bed tonight.”
Gina Lopez naturally said this, but her face turned red once the words were out.
How could she, an educated and cultured woman, use sex as a threat to her own husband?
But the words were spoken, and she couldn’t take them back now.
Seeing Gina Lopez talk this way, Jas Brown also hurriedly responded: “Don’t worry, I absolutely won’t fool around.
It’s probably about a case anyway, so I’m heading over.”
“Go ahead, stop with the pretense here.”
Twenty minutes later, Jas Brown arrived at Helen Wilson’s place, and she opened the door for him with a displeased look on her face.
Jas Brown felt sowhat guilty but still said with a smile: “What is it that you needed to see for?
You even called Gina’s phone.”
Holding her arms, Helen Wilson looked coldly at Jas Brown and said through clenched teeth: “Wow, so you just get married without even bothering to inform ?”
Jas Brown cleared his throat and said: “There’s quite a story to this.
If you’re willing, I’ll explain it all to you.”
Helen Wilson turned around and sat on the sofa, “I want to hear it, just how convincing of an excuse you can co up with.”
Jas Brown sat opposite Helen Wilson, lit a cigarette, took a couple of puffs, and then told her the whole story around his marriage to Gina Lopez.
Helen Wilson listened very carefully, and when Jas Brown finished speaking, she frowned at him and said, “Since you already knew Mrs.
Lopez’s illness was fake and you hadn’t slept with her, why do you keep up such a marriage?”
Jas Brown smiled faintly and said, “It used to be no sex, but later it did happen.
But that’s not the main point, actually.
Being with Gina, I found she’s quite nice.
Since we’re already married, I don’t want to get divorced so casually.”
With annoyance, Helen Wilson said: “Hmph, a beautiful CEO for a wife, one who doesn’t demand a house or a car from you, how could you not be happy?”
Jas Brown had finished his previous cigarette and lit another one, saying: “I suppose it’s a kind of fate.
Helen, there’s also a kind of fate between us, but maybe it just hasn’t reached the point of husband and wife.”
“Don’t use that theory to smooth-talk .
I’m telling you, I never even considered marrying you.
Oh, it’s almost half an hour, just get lost before your wife thinks we did sothing.”
With Helen Wilson’s reaction, Jas Brown was relieved that the situation wasn’t worse, and he obediently left her house.
As soon as Jas Brown left, Helen Wilson rushed into the bedroom like a leopard, took out professional fingerprint lifting equipnt, and collected more than ten fingerprints from the tabletop and the doorknob.
Comparing these fingerprints with those found on the contraceptive box, they looked exactly the sa at first glance.
This made Helen Wilson’s heart race, and she imdiately dashed out, wanting to go to the T District to compare them again with a computer to confirm the results.
But even when she reached the base of the T District building, Helen Wilson hesitated.
What if the mysterious figure really was Jas Brown?
This was sothing that Helen Wilson couldn’t find the answer to in her heart.
After hovering at the entrance of the T District for a while, Helen Wilson gritted her teeth and went upstairs.
It happened that the tech colleague was on duty today, so she didn’t need to find soone else to assist her.
And now, Helen Wilson is a star on the rise within the Public Security System of YODC City.
Everyone knew her, the promising luminary of the police force, so they happily helped her with the comparison.
It wasn’t long before the results ca out, and seeing them, Helen Wilson was completely dumbfounded, unable to move at all.
