You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 207

Jordan stood up and held Irene, "Have a seat. I've been trying to tell you about this, but I was afraid that you wouldn't accept it. Since you've heard everything, there's no need for me to hide it anymore. I suspect that Deborah caused your mother's death."

Jordan repeated what he just said. Irene's face paled and her body kept trembling. She wanted to grab something, but there was nothing to hold on to, so she tightly clenched onto the sofa. Due to using too much strength, her fingertips turned white. Seeing her like this, Kinsey was frightened, "Irene, Irene, are you okay?"

Irene did not speak. When her mother had died, she was still in school. When she had heard the bad news and rushed to the hospital, she had only seen her mother's cold body. She remembered what her mother had looked like at that time. She had been covered in blood and her face was pale.

Her mother had stayed in the hospital morgue for two days. Later, the driver, who had caused the accident, came and reported himself, and everything was filed as a traffic accident.

When her mother died, Steven had been in a meeting somewhere abroad. Thomas did not inform Steven and had instantly arranged for her mother's funeral. When Steven came back, he only saw her mother's ashes. The two of them had a big fight.

While Steven was complaining, he had questioned Thomas' rights to cremate her mother before he came back. Thomas, who had always been calm and peaceful, had suddenly beat Steven up in anger and shouted fiercely at him.

"Steven, where is your conscience? Don't you know what you've done behind her back? Let me tell you, she knew about your scandal. This is what she wanted and she told me to do so before she died!"

Steven had initially been furious, but he suddenly became embarrassed due to Thomas' words. At that time, she did not know why Steven had been afraid of her uncle.

It was not until three months after her mother's death, Deborah took Lily into her house and saw the girl who was only three or four years younger than her. When she heard the girl timidly call Steven her father, she was so disappointed in Steven. Later, she did not hesitate to leave the house to look for Thomas.

In the past few years, she had always believed that her mother's death had been an accident. She had never thought that there would be a side that no one knew about.

If it weren't for Lydia, no one would have known that her mother had met Deborah before her death. Her mother died in a car accident after seeing Deborah. Lydia said that her mother had looked upset and distressed. What had Deborah said to her mother that made her look like that?

Although Irene did not know what Deborah had said to her mother, she was sure that her mother's death definitely had something to do with Deborah. Thinking of how she had been patient with Deborah and her daughter over the years, Irene detested herself.

She had been patient with the murderer who had killed her mother, and she had let them live a free and easy life. She was unworthy of being a daughter! Irene gritted her teeth and uttered, "They will never get away with this!"

Seeing that Irene was being overly emotional, Kinsey grew worried, "Irene, this is just a theory. Don't be so aggravated. We have to calm down. Do you understand?"

"Yes, it's just a theory. It might not be the truth," Dave also comforted her by the side. "Don't be too agitated. You're pregnant with a baby."

"I'm not that weak," Irene's hands let go of the sofa. Her nails had been broken because of her strength, but she could not feel the pain at all, "I must investigate this!"

"Don't worry, I've been looking into it. Just get more rest and take care of the baby. I'll find out the truth and let you know," Jordan said.

"No! I can't let other people handle this. I'm going to investigate it myself!" Irene's face was full of determination.

"You are pregnant. How are you going to investigate? Just let Jordan do it," Kinsey comforted her.

"People who are guilty will show their true colors one day. If my mother's death really had something to do with Deborah, she wouldn't be able to hide so well. I will return to the Cook family and expose her!"

"Deborah is so vicious, so she won't let you catch her so easily. Most importantly, you're still pregnant. If she does anything bad to you, things would get serious. For the sake of the child, you should not take this risk," Kinsey firmly disagreed with Irene's idea to personally investigate the truth.

"The most dangerous place is also the safest. Deborah would never dare to do anything to me. Her daughter is also pregnant now. If something ever happened to my child, she would be the first suspect. She's not that stupid," Irene said with a sneer.

"I always thought that it was the right thing to not fight. Now, I've realized that not fighting would just be stupid. From now on, I'll fight with them. I'll fight to take away whatever they desire. I want them to see me as the enemy they can't get rid off!"

"I know that you're angry. However, if you suddenly go back to the Cook family like this, they'll definitely become suspicious. I think it would be better if we think of a plan," Jordan saw that Irene was stubborn on returning and there was no way to stop her. He understood Irene's feelings. However, Irene's sudden return would definitely make Deborah and her daughter suspicious. That would definitely be detrimental to the investigation.

"Steven has always wanted me to move back, but I had refused because I didn't want to see those ugly faces. It wouldn't be surprising if I moved back. Moreover, it'll be Steven's birthday in a few days. I can just use that as a reason to go back. They won't suspect a thing."

Edric asked John to investigate Deborah's cousin, Simon. Simon had robbed and taken advantage of the victim, causing the victim to have miscarriage. He was then sentenced to ten years of prison. During his imprisonment, he had escaped from prison when security was lax.

After escaping from prison, Simon had gone and stabbed Eunice, who was the victim who sent him to jail, three times. Although Eunice had not been stabbed to death, his crimes of murder and escaping prison were too serious, so he was arrested and sentenced to life in prison. He was still in prison until now.
