Chapter 1095 Meat For Gwyn

Name:Take My Breath Away Author:Bai Cha
In the years following Melody's death, Napier did nothing but keep a vigil at her tombstone every day.

Evelyn felt sorry for him. She not only gave him money on a regular basis, but also had someone bring him food and drinks every day.

She even had a house built for him. It was erected near the one intended for the cemetery watchman.

Then one day, Napier disappeared from the world and no one saw him again, not in that cemetery or even in Y City.

"Sad tale. Sounds like the guy let his grief consume him. But why kill Evelyn's ex-boyfriends?" Sheffield thought Napier was nuts. Even if he bore a grudge against Evelyn for his girlfriend's death, killing three people to get back at her was a little weird. And apparently he was trying to target the fourth.

Melody had jumped off the building in a red dress. That was the reason why Evelyn didn't like red dresses. He should have known that sooner.

If one thing was clear from Carlos' account, it was that Melody and Evelyn cared for each other deeply.

"Are you sure it's Napier Tao?" Carlos asked.

"Pretty sure. I caught a glimpse of his face when we fought, but he escaped. The police chief's last name is 'Tao, ' too. Do you think there's a connection?" That was the key to the mystery.

Sheffield had started patrolling the streets at night, hoping to draw Napier out.

At last, they had some measure of success. Last night, in the wee hours, Napier popped up near Sheffield's old apartment.

The two of them fought with each other again. However, Napier was nobody's fool. He figured out Sheffield had men waiting to ambush him, and escaped.

Sheffield wanted to catch him, but this guy was too quick. He pulled out a knife and slashed at Sheffield's midsection. The CEO sidestepped it and managed to pull off the man's mask.

The moment the mask was pulled off, he recognized him. It was the man who he had beaten in Evelyn's apartment some time ago.

'Chief Tao...' Carlos pondered. It was a very important question. "Probably," he answered. The cases of Evelyn's murdered exes were unsolved. Napier couldn't have gotten away with it, unless a cop helped him out. This "Chief Tao" could be the one doing it.

"Chief Tao retired a year ago. I'll go see him tomorrow."

"Okay."

In the living room of the Huo family manor, a white piano sat by

play."

There was indeed some emergency in the company. So Evelyn didn't insist on staying at the manor. Before she left, she said to the father and daughter duo, "Gwyn, do what Daddy tells you. Sheffield, remember to have her drink warm water. Text me about the kiddo." If he didn't let her know what was going on, she wouldn't be able to focus.

"Okay, go ahead. Be careful on the road. Gwyn, say goodbye to Mommy."

The little girl rested her head on Sheffield's shoulder, raised her hand feebly and waved it at Evelyn. "Bye, Mommy!" she said in a low voice.

Feeling sorry for her daughter, Evelyn stroked her cheek lovingly and said, "Be a good girl. If it hurts or you feel weird, let Daddy know. I'm leaving now."

"Okay."

Around lunchtime, Gwyn still didn't seem right. If anything, she was worse.

After Evelyn left, Sheffield tried to play with her. But a while later, she began to feel sleepy again. So he relented, and tucked her into bed.

When she was asleep, Sheffield took her temperature. It was 38.5 degrees Celsius. Sheffield wasn't taking any chances, and brought her to the car. Once she was safely belted into her seat, Sheffield brought her to the hospital.

When they arrived at the pediatric department of First General, the doctor took the girl's temperature. It had jumped to 39.5 degree Celsius. The girl needed to be put on an ibuprofen IV to bring her fever down.

Sheffield filled out all the hospital admission forms, and waited. When she was wheeled into a room and her IV was in place, he called Evelyn.
