Chapter 3

I did not want my mother-in-law's relationship with her son to be affected because of me.

After all, I was already dead, so it did not matter how many charges I bear.

But when Renata heard that it was not peaceful these days, she waited for her son to go in and followed him to another duty room.

Reporting me missing to the police and asking them to help her find me.

The police did not recognize my mother-in-law, but when she described my physical features, his eyes lit up instantly.

"Are you sure she's been missing for three days? We recently received a criminal case and and the deceased's appearance is very similar to what you described. I will contact her now to confirm. Please wait a moment."

As soon as Renata heard these words, her legs went weak and she almost fell down on the spot.

She was so anxious and frightened that she burst into tears.

When Jayden arrived, what he saw was his mother's red eyes from crying.

The police on duty was confused and said that the person she reported missing to the police had a similar appearance to the deceased.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Jayden said irritably, "Mom, are you done yet? Please stop messing up our work, okay? Karina has her own hands and feet and she can run away if she wants, can't you just let her run away?"

Renata was so angry that she was trembling all over. She stood up and slapped him in the face.

"What do you mean by messing up? She's your wife! Things haven't been peaceful lately. She's been missing for three days. Aren't you worried?"

Jayden was caught off guard and slapped in the face by his mother in public. He looked a little embarrassed and his tone was mixed with anger.

"She's always causing trouble for me. What does her own temper tantrum and playing missing have to do with me? How could she tell me where she's going if she runs away from home?"

"You might as well take care of Yasmin instead of spending so much time on her! She just graduated from college and hasn't found a job yet. You can contact your former colleagues to see if their company is hiring."

My mother-in-law was irritated by his indifferent attitude and trembled with anger.

"She's your wife! A wife protected by the law. Now she's been missing for three days. Is this your reaction?"

"What kind of husband are you? What happened to the deceased? Your colleague said that she looks 80% like Karina! Where is Karina? If you don't give me an answer today, I won't leave!"

"The college student you supported is obviously not a good person. She knows you have a family but she still chases you every day. If you feel sorry for her, then go find a job for her yourself!"

Renata slumped down on the chair with an expression of anger that I had never seen before.

I thought she did not know about Yasmin's matter because I had never said these grievances in front of her.

However, I never expected her to see it all.

After the accident between my parents and Jayden's father, Denzel Yeremia, six years ago, Jayden supported Yasmin, an orphan.

Thinking that she was also a victim of abduction, he gave her all his patience and tenderness without hesitation.

The love between the childhood sweetheart was gone and Yasmin had taken away everything I had.

Heartache flooded my chest, and my breathing became heavy.

Jayden was about to chase his mother away when suddenly a colleague ran in from outside.

"Jayden, there's a package for you."

In an instant, all the hairs on my body stood up.

Jayden only took a glance and noticed that the sender had my name written on it.

He threw the package directly on the table.

"What could happen to her? She still has free time to shop online! See for yourself!"

"I've been so busy with that criminal case lately, could you please stop causing me more trouble? After so many years of solving the case, shouldn't I know if she's in trouble?"

"There are too many women who are 1.65 meters tall. Don't just believe everything you hear and confuse the police!"

Seeing that his mother was still not giving up, he took out his mobile phone and looked through the call records for the day of the incident.

"Look, she called me and had a fight on our anniversary. She was just throwing a tantrum. Don't think too much about it, go back quickly."

However, Renata snatched his mobile phone, opened the chat box and sent me a string of apology messages.

Just as the messages were sent out, Jayden snatched back his mobile phone and quickly pressed the button to cancel them.

He ran out of patience and directly asked his colleague who was delivering the package to forcibly send his mother out.

"She gets angry easily, so don't spoil her. If you have the guts, just die out there and never come back for the rest of your life!"

I had never been angry with him before, but this time, I really could not come back.

I saw tears welling up in my mother-in-law's eyes, and my heart ached.

I rushed over to help her wipe away her tears, but my hand went straight through her body.

I could only watch helplessly as she was forced to leave.

Jayden threw the package aside and was about to go out to continue searching for clues when Yasmin's call came in.

His irritated expression instantly softened the moment he saw the caller ID.

"What's wrong, Yasmin? I've been a bit busy with the case these past few days. I'll go back and make up for your birthday after I'm done, okay?"

"You've been staying in your room recently. I'll order takeout for you when it's time to eat. It's not safe outside, so don't go outside and don't open the door to strangers, okay? Leave the takeout at the door, and I'll pick it up when I get home."

His voice was filled with love and concern that I had never felt in six years.

The boy in my memory was getting farther and farther away from me.

Hanging up the phone, he ordered a takeout for Yasmin.

Just as he was about to go out to investigate the case, a colleague came in with a police dog to urge him on.

The next second, the police dog lost control and pounced on the package box, kept circling and barking wildly.

Everyone instantly became alert.

Jayden personally took a knife to open the express package.

Inside was the wedding ring that was originally on my finger.

He did not notice the dried-up bloodstains at the bottom of the box and angrily threw the ring into the trash can.

He cursed angrily. "Why would you do such a prank? But I won't let it go. It's like I owe her something!"

He stood up, kicked the box into the corner and was about to leave.

The police dog refused to leave no matter how hard they tried to pull it.

It kept barking at the package.

Jayden was furious. He let go of the rope and walked out.

"Bark, bark, bark. One or two of them are bothersome. Bark all you want!"

His colleague hesitated for two seconds before saying, "Isn't that weird? The police dog has been trained for so long, it's impossible for it to bark at an empty cardboard box for no reason? Why don't we go back and take a look?"

His patience ran out, Jayden quickened his pace without even giving him a look.

He spoke pointedly, "If you can't even tame a human, how much more so a dog? It's just a beast."

"I've seen the package, what could be wrong with it? My criminal investigation skills are still no better than a beast?”

Until he got on the car.

Suddenly, a phone call came from the office.

"Jayden, the DNA comparison results are out. There's something wrong with your package. Please come back and take a look!"

My heart went up to my throat.

Looking at Jayden angrily cursed and turned his head to get out of the car.

Honey, you'll know soon that I really didn't get angry...
