Knowing that he had to act like he was interested in her, Alicia nodded in agreement. She knew that with her brother around, she would be safe!,

"Next time, I will ask you! As for the tattoo, practice discretion and only show it to me! Be sure to only tell me about it! Also, there are too many people here, so the name Alicia Blanchard needs to go. From now on, you can't be called by that name.

", After thinking for a while, Nicholas gave a suggestion.,

"Use the surname of your relative. How about Swift? Misty Swift; just like a riddle, be charming and distant. Puzzle people with your beauty. It's best to confuse everyone to help you tide over this difficulty! The person who interrogates you will not care what your surname is, but as time goes by, other staff members will inevitably inquire about it from you or start to suspect you if you keep avoiding the topic. When the time comes and you can't shake them off, you can just disguise yourself as your cousin. Anyway, when the cat's away, the mice will play. It'll not be a problem for you as long as no one investigates it. Even if they do, you don't have to be afraid! I will find a way to solve everything as soon as possible! I will arrange for a trusted follower to come over and have him notify me if something occurs! Also, the person who just came in with me at the door is called Leon. He can be trusted!

", 'Til keep it in mind, Nicholas!

" After that, Alicia added in a low voice,

"Nicky!

",

"Okay, Misty!

" He stroked her hair and replied.,

"I can't stay here for too long. In the future, someone will keep an eye on me. Be wary of how you act around me and how you speak to me! I suppose that the news won't stay hidden for long and the higher- ups will soon find out. I will find a way to properly solve all this! Don't be afraid. I'm here, so I won't let you get hurt! There are some things that I have to check out. If there is a chance, we'll talk again!

" Nicholas grabbed her hand and stood up.,

"If you need anything or lack anything, have them inform me! However, you must remember, you can't contact anyone from the past. If something goes wrong, it may also affect them! The less they know, the safer they are. You must endure it before the problem is solved! These people are desperate.

",

"I know how severe the situation is. I won't be a burden to you. You have to be careful too! Don't leave me behind!

", Waving her hand secretly, she laid back onto her bed., In the following two days, Alicia was locked up in the room. She had three meals a day which would be sent to her room. She was all alone and had to shoulder everything by herself, but there was no need for her to move a single muscle. Her mind was full of scenes of that night with her aunt, the scene of Frederick and Danica being together, and finally the scene where she was separated from her aunt., She felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out. She would burst into tears from time to time., Why did the store catch fire? What did her aunt's last words mean?, Who was it that tried to harm her? What had they done to her car?, Was the death of her aunt an accident or a scheme? Could it be that the scum did it for the insurance money? That day, it was so dark. Did she see clearly that it was Frederick? However, she clearly saw Danica's face! Could it be that everything he did with Danica in the past was just an act for her?, Did she make the same mistake again?, She had to uphold justice for her aunt! She must do it!, Her mind was full of the things that happened before and after this matter. She questioned it time and time again. Her mind would often explode from thinking too much. It was like she was in a multicolored fog She couldn't find her way through it at all. She really wanted to confront Frederick and ask him clearly!, However, every time she went to the door, she would retreat again., She couldn't go out and she couldn't contact the outside world. She was now in someone else's exclusive domain! Her questions would all be answered eventually! Settling the present matter was her top priority!, After staying silent for two days, Alicia became restless. She asked for pens and a notebook from the people outside the door. She seemed to be constantly drawing to soothe her grief. When she thought of key points, she began to write them down one by one in the notebook., On the other side, at the office,, Frederick maintained the same sitting position for several, consecutive days. He did not move nor change his line of sight from the computer screen. There were all kinds of surveillance videos on it. Soon, the video was at its end. However, he would rewind it and zoom in before watching it again and again. , There was a knock on the door and he pressed the pause button,

"Come in!

",

"Frederick...

", Chet came in with the information, took a document and put it on the table,

"Over at the police station, the DNA test results are out!

", Frederick didn't even touch it. He was as still as a pool of stagnant water like he had been in the past. He didn't show any signs of excitement. He merely gave him a glance. Chat swallowed his saliva and spoke.,

"At present, only a group of DNA was extracted from the skeletons collected. Compared with the DNA in Miss Blanchard's hair, the similarity rate is 99%. In other words, it can only be determined that there's a possibility that they were relatives, but it can't be completely confirmed that it is Miss Blanchard! However, it could also be possible that there was a deviation in the result due to the impact of the fire and explosion. There could also be an issue with the hair sample and some other factors! So...

" ,

"99%?

" Alicia was really not in this world anymore! He couldn't even see her for one last time nor was he left with her complete corpse., He whispered and closed his eyes. For the first time, Frederick's tears rolled out. He clenched his fists and his eyes fell back on the computer screen. The computer screen was showing the paused surveillance footage that he repeatedly looked at. In a small frame on one side, there was a part that he had just enlarged., In fact, through the corner of the window, in the fire, it could be clearly identified that there were two figures in the house!, However, because there was some distance between the camera and the window, the image wasn't clear. Even so, a clear picture of two shadowy figures could be seen! Two people!, The second time he looked at it, he found that there were two people in the house and there were signs of pulling! That meant that Alicia ran back and went in! Since she had gone in, how could she be fine?, He had been planning for the worst-case scenario, but he was also holding onto the last glimmer of hope!, He didn't expect that even the DNA was 99% similar to hers! It was almost certain that she was dead, which crushed the little hope and delusion left in his mind. The woman he loved most was gone, just like that. It was so sudden and so untraceable!,

"Frederick, are you okay? You haven't moved for seven days and nights. Shouldn't you take a break? You're going to collapse if you go on like this.

",

"Will I? Why do I feel that I'm in high spirits and don't even feel sleepy?

", If he collapsed, he could go and accompany her! No. Before accompanying her, he had to avenge her! Otherwise, how could he have the courage to see her again? He turned around and said indifferently.,

"Have you found the people who caused the fire? How did the fire happen? Was it an accident? Was the blackout that day a coincidence or a manmade one?

",

"Those people were aiming for the, store owner! The owner was Freya, the former wife of Sebastian Forbes,, a music star. The two of them shared a typical tragic love story.

I have checked all of Miss Blanchard's call records and found nothing unusual. Recently, other than official business calls, most calls went to the shop owner.
