Chapter 560
The next day, after Louise went to work, Shannon went out with the strand of hair.
She hailed a taxi. However, no matter how Shannon thought about it, she felt insecure, like she was missing something important.
“Driver, please turn around and go back. I left something behind.”
The driver drove the car back to the house. Shannon hurriedly went upstairs and returned to Louise’s room.
She went into the bathroom, looked around, and grabbed a toothbrush from the sink. Then, she went into the room to look around. She saw an ashtray by the bed.
She picked up the cigarette butts inside and put them into a sealed bag before rushing downstairs.
She had to be extra prepared so that Louise had no way to deny the allegations afterward!
After taking these things, Shannon finally felt more at ease.

Nova’s company quickly encountered a crisis.
Overnight, the company’s partners withdrew their investments one after another. Early in the morning, Nova was busy having meetings with the higher-ups at Top Group to discuss countermeasures. Louise was in a good mood after hearing the news. She could not help but hum a song as she returned home from work.
When Shannon saw Louise return, she asked her with a smile, “Did something good happen today?”
Louise looked at Shannon and smiled mysteriously. “Auntie seems to be in a good mood recently as well. Is something good about to happen?”
Shannon secretly took a deep breath.
Simply thinking about how she would be able to chase this vicious woman out in a few days made Shannon overwhelmed with excitement. She was so happy that her eyes were shining.
Louise must be the one who murdered Ava! Grace has no deep hatred for Ava. There was no reason for Grace to kill her.
The one who killed Ava was Louise. Louise was afraid that her secret would be exposed, so she killed Ava with her own hands!
Shannon’s hands curled up unconsciously. Her eyes were filled with hatred.
Louise smiled. “Auntie, what’s wrong?”
“I’m fine. I just suddenly missed Ava.” Shannon pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes. “Go wash your hands. It’s time to eat.” “Okay.”
The next morning, Louise could not find her toothbrush even after searching for a long time.
She frowned and muttered to herself, “That’s weird…Where did my toothbrush go?”
She called the servant over and asked, “Did you throw my toothbrush away when you were cleaning the room?”
“No, Miss Adkins. We didn’t clean
dom yesterday. Even when we
up the room, we don’t
simply throw things away without asking you first.”
“Alright, you may leave.” Louise waved the servant away and took a new toothbrush to brush her teeth.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Louise was suddenly hit with the feeling that something was wrong.
She recalled that when she was
smoking last night, she realized that the cigarette butt in the ashtray had disappeared, and the servant had just said that she had not cleaned the room yesterday!
Oh no! The toothbrush and cigarette butt had been taken away!
Shannon…this old woman was indeed difficult to deal with. It was hard to believe that she thought of using saliva for the DNA test. Louise immediately went out and knocked on Shannon’s door.
After knocking for a long time, Marshall, who was downstairs, heard the commotion and asked, “Why are you looking for your aunt? She went out early in the morning.”
Louise’s heart skipped a beat.
“Out? Where did she go?”
“She said she was going shopping with some friends.”
IMS
Louise’s heart was pounding. She must not let Shannon get the report!
“Dad, I’m going to be late. I’ll skip breakfast!” With that, she hurriedly drove out.
There were several identification centers in Capern City. Not knowing which one Shannon went to, Louise could only search them one by one.
