Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 867

Though Ruby hadn't been directly involved in child trafficking, buying a child still made them accomplices. Plus, no one knew how many children the traffickers had abducted over the years which led to countless broken families.

Though Ruby knew this, she'd never reported them. Instead, she kept in contact with them "just in case" she ever needed them.

The livestream audience raged. They recalled Shannon's earlier statement that the traffickers carried deaths, so they must've been responsible for lives lost during transport. That was another tragic side effect of their crimes.

"Please! Just sentence that old lady and human traffickers to death!"

"Human traffickers deserve the worst! They should be reborn as animals in their next lives!"

"I'm in tears; angry tears!"

"May this world never see trafficking again…"

Ruby and Brennan were soon brought to the interrogation room. With a new lead on the case, the police quickly sprung into action and were ready to reunite the kidnapped children with their families.

As the officers busied themselves for the preparations, Shannon and Skylar returned to their respective stations.

Skylar turned around to see Olivia looking abnormally somber. He assumed Ruby's crimes had frightened her and hesitated before handing her a soul-calming talisman. "This might help settle your nerves."

Olivia blinked. Then, she gave him a slight smile. "I'm not scared."

She paused, then muttered softly, "I was just wondering… Did Brennan ever suspect Ruby of being responsible for Macie's death?"
