Chapter 434 Take Care Of Them
When they arrived at Lusterg Police Station, Neville was also there.
Neville was a little stunned when he saw Jacob, but he soon guessed his identity from Jacob’s appearance. He sighed faintly and asked Yuliana, “Is he Sabrina’s son?”
Yuliana nodded. “Well, he went to high school in Juxshire, I didn’t tell him about Mrs. Livingstone before this. He came back last night.”
Neville nodded and didn’t say anything more. He just looked at Jacob with pity. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Jacob was so young, and both of his parents were gone.
Neville had only learned of the family makeup the previous afternoon. He discovered that Damian was Yuliana’s father and Sabrina’s husband
When Yuliana first reported the case, she provided limited information. At that time, the investigators were only looking into the disappearance of an average woman, so they didn’t delve into certain details.
It was only after the Lusterg Police Station confirmed Sabrina’s identity the previous afternoon that they began investigating the reason for her murder. It was during this investigation that they discovered Sabrina’s husband was Damian.
While his father may have committed wrongs, Jacob, his son, was innocent.
Neville said, “Let’s go. I’ll escort you inside.”
Yuliana and the others followed Neville into the morgue, and with his assistance, they swiftly completed the necessary procedures. Afterward, Lusterg Police Station escorted them to the Forensic Medical Identification Center’s morgue.
As they reached the door, Yuliana came to a halt and glanced back at Jacob, trailing silently behind her. “Jake, you wait outside. I will come out soon,” said Yuliana.
Jacob frowned and said, “I want to go in with you.”
“No!” said Yuliana in a harsh tone that left no room for discussion. After a pause, she softened her tone. “Listen, please wait outside. I’ll go in.”
It was not confirmed whether the body was Sabrina.
Yesterday, Yuliana used her mobile phone to search the internet for news about the body found in the back mountain of Xemrich Village. Even though the police had blocked the news, there were still many rumors about the murder circulating, claiming that the killer’s methods were exceptionally brutal.
Jacob was still young, so Yuliana wouldn’t allow him to follow her.
Jacob was silent for a while before he nodded in agreement.
The staff at the Lusterg Police Station opened the door and allowed Yuliana and Christopher to enter. They pulled out the body from the refrigerator and removed the white cloth covering it, stepping aside to give Yuliana and Christopher space to examine the body.
Yuliana looked up, and her face instantly drained of color. Her legs went weak, and she nearly collapsed, but Christopher held her up. She didn’t dare to look at the body again, turning away as her chest heaved with violent emotion.
Yuliana’s fingers clenched tightly onto Christopher’s arm, digging her nails into his flesh with the force of her grip.
Christopher kept his composure as he glanced at the woman lying in the refrigerator. Despite being reconstructed, the stitching marks on Sabrina’s body gave him an idea of the brutal condition she had been in before being pieced back together.
He withdrew his sight and said, “Okay.”
“Wait!” Yuliana suddenly called out.
She turned around with a pale face and said, “I want to take another look.”
The staff in the forensic center stopped and removed the white cloth again.
Yuliana forced herself to endure her discomfort and stared at the woman lying there, tears blurring her vision.
She had never thought that a kind person like Sabrina would be treated so cruelly.
“How could they do this to her?” Yuliana thought, consumed with anger and hatred. She had never felt such intense hatred before.
After coming out of the morgue, the staff at Lusterg Police Station took Yuliana and Jacob to make detailed records.
Joaquin, captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit of Lusterg Police Station, was the person in charge of Sabrina’s case. He asked Yuliana a lot of questions, including about her father, Damian.
But Yuliana didn’t trust him, so she didn’t disclose too much information.
Moreover, Yuliana was emotionally and physically drained after coming out of the morgue. Joaquin didn’t keep them waiting for long as he swiftly took down their statements. He advised them to head back for some rest, promising to reach out in case of any further need for cooperation in the investigation.
As for Sabrina’s body, it could not be taken back by her family for the time being.
After finishing the notes, Neville was still there.
He dropped Yuliana and the others off at the gate of the Lusterg Police Station and spoke to them before leaving. This case is now under the jurisdiction of the Lusterg Police Station, and my station is no longer involved unless they need our assistance. If you remember anything else, you can contact Joaquin directly. He’s my junior but more capable than me and has handled many big cases over the years. You can trust him.”
Yuliana said in a hoarse voice, “Thank you, Neville.”
“I didn’t do anything to deserve your thanks,” Neville said, unable to bear the gratitude. “Just go back and have some rest.”
He looked at Christopher, who was still calm, hesitated for a while, and said, “Take good care of them.”
He had encountered this young man on several occasions, but they had never had a direct conversation. Most of the time, he stood quietly behind Yuliana, but whenever Yuliana needed him, he would come to her aid without hesitation.
Christopher nodded and led Yuliana to the parking lot.
Jacob followed.
It was past lunchtime.
The car soon drove out of the Lusterg Police Station.
Christopher stole a glance at Yuliana through the rearview mirror. Yuliana remained silent, staring blankly out the window. Her complexion had improved somewhat since leaving the morgue, but her thoughts remained a mystery to him. Despite her apparent composure, he couldn’t help but wonder what was going through her mind.
Jacob was also quiet. Unexpectedly, he was also very calm.
Jacob didn’t ask if the body was Sabrina when they came out of the morgue.
But Christopher was sure that Jacob didn’t ask because he already knew the answer.
“Let’s find a place to eat first?” Christopher’s voice broke the silence in the car.
The siblings snapped out of their daze, and both looked ahead, lost in thought. After a moment, they turned their heads to the person next to them in unison.
Yuliana asked, “Jake, what do you feel like eating?” Yuliana had lost her appetite and wasn’t hungry, but Jacob was still growing and needed to eat on a regular schedule. With Sabrina gone, Yuliana felt responsible for taking care of Jacob.
Jacob looked out of the window blankly. Suddenly, he saw a familiar shop and hurriedly shouted, “Stop the car!*
Christopher parked his car on the roadside.
As soon as the car stopped, Jacob opened the door and rushed out of the car.
“Jake!” Yuliana panicked and immediately followed Jacob. She shouted, “Where are you going, Jake?”
Jacob ran more than 100 yards before stopping in his path.
Yuliana panted and chased after Jacob. The latter had stopped in front of a barbecue joint. Yuliana asked, “Do you want to eat grilled meat?”
Jacob nodded at Yuliana and said softly, “I often come to this restaurant with my mom.”
In fact, Sabrina rarely took him out to eat. She believed it was unhygienic to eat outside and thought it was too expensive. However, he had come to this place with his classmates once before and mentioned to Sabrina in passing that the grilled meat was delicious. After that, Sabrina started taking him here almost once a month.
“Yuliana, will I never see my mom again?” asked Jacob.
