Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 365

Chapter 365 Re-Investigation

Contrary to Elliot’s expectations, even though Anastasia looked pale, she only held on to his arm for support. At that moment, Elliot desperately wanted to hold her in his embrace.

However, she retreated instinctively, so he retracted his arm mid-air.

“I’ll send you home first and let my men handle the rest here,” said Elliot in a deep voice.

“Let Rey send me home! You should stay back and catch Riley instead.” After saying that, she closed the door. Through the car window, she seemed cold and distant.

When he saw that, Elliot could feel his heart throb in pain. Why did he feel like she was miles away from him though they hadn’t seen each other for merely a day?

What did Riley tell her?

After that, Elliot instructed Rey to send Anastasia back home while he stayed back to settle everything here.

Never did Riley expect a simple kidnap case to cause him so much trouble. All of his subordinates had collapsed, and he was being pressed to the ground like a losing warrior surrendering in front of his nephew.

Elliot resembled a young king on the throne, looking down at the man below him in contempt.

“Let go of me, Elliot! I’m your uncle! I’m your senior!” Riley huffed, intending to use his relationship with Elliot to escape.

“What did you tell Anastasia? Are you the culprit who killed her mother and kidnapped me back then?” shouted Elliot.

In response, Riley snickered while saying, “Find the evidence and sue me if you’re capable of it! I won’t admit a thing.”

Elliot’s eyes darkened at that. “In that case, be prepared to rot in prison!”

From the looks of it, Riley could be sentenced to a few years of jail for the kidnapping of Anastasia.

However, Riley did not panic as he was being detained in the car. Even if he went to prison, he didn’t have to be scared since he had one more trump card.

“Thank you, Rey.” After thanking him, Anastasia entered the house and shut the door.

Rey didn’t leave after that, for he had to protect Anastasia until Elliot came over.

At the police station, Riley was arrested for kidnapping, whereas Elliot’s bodyguard handed over all video evidence so that he couldn’t escape the punishment.

At the same time, Elliot also applied for a re-investigation of his kidnapping case back then with Riley as the primary suspect. He also called for another investigation into Amelia’s case, the policewoman who had died in the same year. Thankfully, the police attached great importance to this matter.

After coming out of the police station, Elliot rushed to Anastasia’s housing area immediately. He called Nigel, told him what happened today, and ordered him to protect Jared well.

On the other end of the line, Nigel was taken aback by the information. With that, he hurriedly sent someone to the kindergarten to pick Jared up. He was going to let Jared stay by his side so that he could take care of him for the next few days.

As she sat on the sofa, Anastasia could feel that the fear of being kidnapped had dissipated, but she felt complicated emotions. She stood in Old Madam Presgrave’s shoes; if her only grandson had been kidnapped back then, she would also be willing to do anything to save him no matter how crazy it was.
