A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 853

Rae thought again about seeing Philippa’s photo in Kenzie’s house, now Kenzie looked like she had nothing to do with this at all, but how would a one-time meeting leave behind photos?

Rae suddenly felt very angry, she hoped that this case would be solved soon!

Rae and Marcel went to the interrogation room to interrogate.

Manager Griffiths and Kenzie were separated.

This was the first interrogation towards Kenzie.

Rae did not know what Marcel thought, he merely asked Rae to retrieve that photo, the photo that was taken from Kenzie’s house.

Once they entered the interrogation room, after the standard procedural recording, Marcel then looked at Kenzie and said, “Miss Salinas, you lie! Philippa and you had known each other for very long!”

Facing Marcel’s affirmative tone, without the slightest fear, Kenzie smiled lightly. She leaned backwards against the back of the chair, crossing her arms, and showed a casual and calm demeanour, “May I know why you say this, Mr Policeman?”

“Of course I have evidence!” Marcel was direct as well.

“Really?” Kenzie raised an eyebrow, “Then take the evidence out!”

“Miss Salinas must surely be the kind of person that wouldn’t give up until the end, right?”

“No!” Kenzie shook her head and corrected Marcel, “I’m the kind of person that wouldn’t give up even after the end!”

Marcel heard this and only smiled lightly, “I’m not interested as to how you are as a person, what I’m interested in is that you clearly knew Philippa, but why do you pretend that you’ve only met her once?”

Kenzie looked seriously, examining Marcel. After a long while, she smiled and asked, “May I know your name, Mr Policeman?”

“I’m Marcel Hopkins!” Marcel even told his own name, he was afraid of nothing.

Kenzie’s words were filled with the provocation, she had scolded without any swear words, and even scolded so knowledgably. Rae did not know if it were her, how she would answer.

But Marcel merely smiled lightly, not minding at all about Kenzie’s provocation. His eyes too, lit up with a shine, “Miss Salinas, you are knowledgeable. You control both the careers of file management and also public relations and both have prospered, and it’s rare that your personality is also so open!”

Public relations?! Being open?!

Rae stunned, thinking about the incident between Kenzie and Zack. Indeed, Kenzie had been very open that night. Marcel too, scolded her without a bit of swear words.

Once he said so, Kenzie froze slightly, understanding instantly what Marcel was referring to. But she did not know the people beside that night were Marcel and Rae, she only saw Rae but did not expect for Rae to follow her, so she did not ponder upon it.

But Marcel’s words made her thought that Marcel had already carried out some certain investigations on her, that was why he said this. Indeed, she had another career now as a female public relations officer. She could have not used seduction but she liked it, whenever she met the suitable man she had always liked to try out that feeling. Marcel had said this, but Kenzie was not angry as she smiled and replied, “Well, Captain Hopkins is indeed more experienced and astute. Since you have already investigated my primary career, then stop beating around the bush. Tell me, what else do you want to know?”

Marcel leaned back as well, looking down at Kenzie mightily. He could indeed intimidate others by his demeanour. He watched Kenzie for a long time before he spoke, “How did you and Philippa meet?”

Kenzie still smiled, “Captain Hopkins, you can’t interrogate without some sincerity. Where’s your evidence? How can you prove that I knew Philippa?”

“Rae!” Marcel did not look at Rae, but called from her to show the evidence. Rae took out that photo of Philippa and pushed it towards Kenzie.

Kenzie took a look and paused slightly, she then glanced suddenly at Marcel. She laughed, as if she felt a bit of disdain, “I never expect for the mighty Mr Policeman to actually become a house-breaking thief! You have really widened my sight, when did you visit my house?”

They were exposed?!

Rae felt guilty, indeed, since the way they obtained the evidence was not exactly just and honest. At this moment she felt guilty, as she was also one of the thieves.

Just when Rae lowered her head in guilt and did not dare to look, the back of her foot was suddenly stepped on by someone. Rae raised her head instantly and looked at Marcel who was beside. That man had actually no change in expression and no remorse, as he slowly retracted the foot that he stepped on the back of Rae’s foot. He posed a casual look as he stared at Kenzie, smiling lightly, “Why do you say this, Miss Salinas?”

Why did Marcel step on her?

Rae came to her senses and realised that Captain Hopkins was reminding her to not be guilty. Since the leader was already being shameless openly, she could only cooperate and play along!

But how was Philippa related to Braeden? Why had she not found out about their relations?

“So, this means my sources are reliable, that man is Braeden!” Marcel continued without any change in expression, “Philippa was together with Braeden, and you were once Braeden’s girlfriend. You’ve broken up over some reason, and got back together after for some reason. You wanted all of Braeden, but he only gave you a part of him!”

Kenzie was stunned again, seeming as if she did not expect Marcel to know so in such detail. But she was not angered either, and instead she spoke calmly, “I must say that I’m impressed with your sensitivity and ability to investigate, Captain Hopkins, to even find out about what happened between Braeden and I more than a decade ago. Actually, Braeden and I are friends with benefits now, whenever we are free we would hookup, apart from this there’s nothing else.”

To talk about hooking up so openly, Rae did not know whether it was her principles that were problematic, or the society now was indeed too casual. Why would they even talk about hooking up so openly?

“What about any transactions financially?” Marcel still asked about the key point.

“Financially?” Kenzie raised an eyebrow. “It’s possible to transact with anyone financially, since it’s been like this, why not trade with a friend with benefits that matches my cause?”

Her rebuttal was so right and proper, that Rae felt that she herself was abnormal, as if Kenzie was the normal one. The corner of her eye glanced at Marcel and found that Marcel’s expression seemed unaffected as well.

Indeed, even Captain Hopkins himself had mentioned about hooking up. Although this was not related to others and would not affect traffic nor order, it was nothing. But it affected the law and morality!

“Miss Salinas, please recount how you fought with Philippa at the ranch!” Marcel asked flatly.

After Kenzie paused for a while, she continued, “Nothing had happened originally on that day, Braeden brought Philippa to the ranch to ride horses, and I went by myself. But then we met and I provoked Philippa with my words. I said that she was just a juicy young plant, Braeden would take a fancy towards her now but not longer after he would change his tastes! She said that I was like a pickled vegetable, although tasty but the vegetable’s all old and lack of any moisture. I really hate for others to say that I’m old, whoever says I’m old I’ll fight them!”

“You really don’t look that young anymore!” Marcel replied.

Kenzie froze, her face looking angered. “Captain Hopkins, do you believe that I can push you over now and forcibly make love to you?”

Rae was shocked!

How shameless could it be, for her to say these bold words that she wanted to make love to a police officer in the interrogation room?

But Marcel refused her without even so much as a blush, “Sorry, I’m not interested in pickled vegetables. Also, I don’t do hookups!”
