The case was too exhausting. Too complicated.
"Observe everyone involved this investigation, if there is any suspicious person around the area, inform me quickly." I instructed Sir James as he looked at me with his heavy eyelids sliding down. He nodded and then walked away.
I turned around, wanting to go back to work. I saw Joan starring at me. "Oh... Checking on people now eh? Now, now, wheres Kily Francis. Shes changed. A woman never trusting people!" Joan looked at me sternly.
"Come on, Joan. I am doing for government. This is my job. I have to make sure everyone here is loyal to the country. Now, why are you here anyway?" I asked, startled and furious at what she had said.
"I was here to check whether you are fine. I did not know you were so stupid! Don't try to hide, you are the one that murdered her. You were."
"What!? What did you say? Stupid? Yes, stupid me indeed. Now get back to work. And bear this in mind. I am not the liar you are thinking now! Why would murder someone when I am a lawyer!"
Hearing this, Joan stormed out of the room. I sat quickly down on my chair. It was shocking. I regretted. I regretted doing this to her. I regretted so much...
