One Night Bride: Master Blackwood's Substitute Wife-Chapter 793: Crime of Passion

Realizing this, Sharon Langley quickly withdrew her words and sat quietly alone, contemplating the situation ahead.

Silas Eastwood naturally saw through her thoughts, but in fact, it wasn’t difficult for him to inquire about the Blackwood Group.

The real challenge was that the Blackwood Group had sealed all information tightly, not a single detail was revealed, not even whether Sebastian Blackwood’s surgery had ended!

With the Blackwood Group refusing to disclose any information, sending more people to investigate would still be futile.

Meanwhile, at the police station.

As soon as Ivy Kensington was brought back, she was placed in the murderer’s interrogation room.

The glaring light shone straight into her eyes, making her pupils shrink and involuntary tears flow again.

The officer interrogating her was quite young, seemingly under thirty, named Frank Spence.

Frank Spence sat expressionless across from Ivy Kensington, tapping his fingers on the wooden table.

"Name."

"Ivy Kensington."

"What is your relationship to the victim?"

"He is my ex-husband."

"Why did you arrange to meet him tonight?"

At this point, Ivy Kensington’s eyelashes trembled lightly. After a while, she replied, "We had reconciled recently, but I didn’t expect him to have rumors with Sylvia Sterling again. I felt upset, so I arranged to meet him."

Frank Spence took notes, his eyebrows subtly furrowing at her words.

Indeed, at the time, the rumors between Sebastian Blackwood and Sylvia Sterling were widespread, almost all major entertainment tabloids were reporting on it.

This explanation seemed valid.

However...

Frank Spence slightly narrowed his eyes and asked again, "So you thought of killing him?"

Ivy Kensington swallowed, her throat painfully dry.

After a while, she nodded, "Yes."

In this case, it appeared to be a crime of passion.

Yet Frank Spence felt something was off; Ivy Kensington’s reaction seemed peculiar for a crime of passion.

He’s handled many cases, with crimes of passion being quite common.

Not to mention how a woman like Ivy Kensington could have stabbed a tall adult man like Sebastian Blackwood, the main point is, given Master Blackwood’s character, if things had really escalated to this point with Ivy Kensington, it’s likely they would have already fallen out, making it impossible for him to accept her meeting.

And before entering the hospital, Sebastian Blackwood had already reported another case at the police station.

Forest arson, Ivy Kensington narrowly escaped death; he was the one who brought her back.

Therefore, their relationship couldn’t have reached the point of murder.

Upon closer examination, the motive Ivy Kensington cited for murder doesn’t hold up well.

"Officer Xu."

At this moment, someone called for Frank Spence from outside, prompting him to rise and leave the room.

"Officer Xu, we’ve checked the hospital’s surveillance, but they were destroyed ahead of time. They’re being repaired now, which will take a while."

The technical restoration at the police station requires queuing up; there’s still time to wait.

Frank Spence hadn’t anticipated even the hospital’s surveillance being destroyed ahead of time.

This suggests it was more of a premeditated act.

But Ivy Kensington had just been rescued, still bearing injuries, how could she have prepared so much in advance?

Thinking this through, Frank Spence already had his judgment.

Ivy Kensington absolutely isn’t the killer; she’s likely hiding something!

Returning to the interrogation table, Frank Spence stated, "Ivy Kensington, do you understand the consequence of concealing the truth?"

The Blackwood family demanded conviction and a death sentence, and if she admits to it, no one can save her!

Ivy Kensington stared blankly at the floor and after a while asked, "Can I know Sebastian Blackwood’s current status?"
