Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 949

After Daphne left the building, she was immediately pulled to a less crowded place.

She asked in confusion, "Donald?"

Donald looked around before frowning and said, "Why are you here?"

Daphne pulled her backpack. "My editor-in-chief received an exclusive and asked me to trace it."

Saying of this, she hurriedly added. "Don't worry. I'm just doing my job. It will definitely not affect you."

Donald kept frowning. "I don't mean that, and I'm not skimmed off with you intentionally."

Daphne laughed. "I know you are strict and will not be interfered with by external factors, especially when working."

Donald answered nothing.

He wasn't as good as she said.

After a moment of silence, Donald asked, "Do you really want to follow this case?"

Daphne nodded. "The editor-in-chief assigns this. Steve…"

After a pause, Daphne hesitantly continued, "Are you going to argue for his innocence in court?"

Donald set his mouth in a grim line, "Sorry, I can't tell you this."

Daphne immediately said, "It's okay. I was just casually asking."

After thinking about it, Daphne said, "According to the police investigation and the interview I just did, I think there's something wrong with him."

Donald said slowly, knowing what she meant, "He is my client."

Daphne understood his intention.

Defending one's client was the most basic professionalism of a lawyer.

While nodding her head, Daphne said, "Then I know, just like what Donald said, let's do our own work."

When Donald pulled her back, she was about to leave, "Are you sure that Steve killed his wife?"

"No. I'll leave it to the police to investigate. I'm just responsible for finding out more hidden truths."

"Since you have decided that Steve is suspicious, whether he is the murder or not, you should stop investigating."

Daphne did not understand. "Why?"

Donald lowered his voice. "Have you thought that what if his wife's death is related to him? What will he do to you if you insist on this matter?"

Hearing this, Daphne tilted her head and smiled. "Can I perceive your words as that you are telling me the truth is what I thought about?"

Donald was stunned, and his grip on her arm loosened, not expecting to be trapped by her like this.

Daphne laughed, "Don't worry. This is just a private chat. I will investigate the truth on my own."

As she spoke, her phone rang.

She answered it and waved at Donald. "I'll leave first. Bye."

Donald stood in place, touched his eyebrows, and took a long breath.

Back in the car, Donald took something from the storage box but saw the pendant of Daphne.

He looked out, and there was no longer any Daphne around.

Donald picked up the pen cap again and looked at it carefully under the sunlight, wondering what was so special about it?
