NOVEL NEXT Chapter 608: 13
To lazy to reprimand them, Sia simply rolled her eyes and turned on the projecter showing the property documents of Ms. Reema. While pointing at the screen she explained "I checked all of her property documents and found this. After a thorough analysis I realised that Ms. Reema is quite smart. She buys property not for the sake of buying but to invest. All the properties she has purchased up until now were either those whose value increased in a short span of time or those whose value might increase greatly during the following year"
"Even those properties and assets she had recieved as a gift from family and friends, i found out that she sold out those that did not pose her any value and only retained those whose value could increase exponentially in the future. I did a backgroup check on her and realised that she had minored in Finance and account during her undergrad"
"Is it possible that she bought this villa on a whim? Or could it be she purchased it to gift it to her family later on? I heard her grandmother likes peace and hence lives in a courtyard at the outskirts. And since this villa is also at the outskirts, could it be possible that she purchased it for her grandmother but changed her mind later on?" David analyzed
"Its not entirely impossible but I wouldn't agree with you. I did my research and found out that though Old Madams courtyard is in the outskirts, its value is greater than a few courtyards located within the city. Also, I did a background check on this old madam and realised she is quite impressive. Their families political journey began because of her and not her husband. And it was her who guided her husband and son from behind the scene. As her only granddaughter, do you think Ms. Reema would show an interest on this property which is only beautiful without much value?" Sia questioned
"Makes sense" Rishi responded while rubbing his chin
"But we can't be sure until the end. Just in case, I want you to check the registry and see if you find any falsification" Sia informed Rishi
"I will"
"The meeting ends here. You guys can get busy with your task, inform me if there are any updates"
"Understood"
"Rishi, send me Ms. Kareens and the Ministers statemenet"
"Okay"
Just as everyone was preparing to leave, there was a knock from outside and a police officer walked in carrying a parcel "Mr. Shien, you have a delivery"
"A delivery for me?" Sia asked as she recived it. Just as she was about to check who sent it, she recieved a message to her cell phone. After reading the content, a faint smile appeared on her face unintentionally
Stay tuned to mvl
"Woah, the captain is actually smiling. Tell us, who sent you this lunchbox filled with love?"
While responding to the message, Sia replied with a smile "My Wife"
"Ohh...wait what? Your wife? Captain, you really have a wife? You weren't lying actually?" Rishi asked in disbelief
Raising her head, she grinned at Rishi and asked "Why, do you have a problem with me having a wife?"
"Not really but...when did you get a wife? how come you did not inform us?" Rishi asked curiously
"My wife is extremely beautiful to be seen by some bees and butterflies"
"Ohhh....wait, were you just sneering at us?" Rishi asked while pointing at himself
"Sigh, are you too free? Don't you have things to do?" Sia asked back
"That...." before Rishi good argue, David pulled him out good naturedly. The rest of the officers also followed him out except for HK.
"A bento from your dear 'Wife'. I bet you must be very happy?" HK teased
Instead of answering him, Sia asked back with a fake smile "Do you want me to send you out specially with gongs and drums?"
"Okay-Okay, I will leave. I will not disturb you from savouring your 'Wife's' SPECIAL benta"
Ignoring him, Sia started to pull out the lunch boxes one after the other. Just as she was doing so she suddenly remembered something and called out for HK
"HK, wait for a moment"
Pausing on his footsteps, HK turned around and asked "What is it?"
"I have a task for you, don't reveal it to anyone for now, carry on the task secretly"
"Understood, I will look into it now" he said and left the meeting room.
Finally alone, Sia sat down and looked at the widespread of home cooked meals. Her heart felt warm and cozy in this cold room after receiving such love from her 'Wifey'
Just as Sia was enjoying the cozy feeling, her cell phone beeped with a message from her Wifey
'How does it tast?'
'Hmm?' seeing the text, Sia immediately picked up her spoon and started to taste the food on after the other. After tasting the last dish, she suddenly picked up her phone and replied with a question "Did you cook it?"
'Does it taste bad?'
Though she did not recive a definite answer, based on this message and the taste of the food, Sia guessed that it was made by her wifey.
With a smile, she responded "They taste awesome. One of the best dishes I had ever had"
'Then I will make sure you will have them everyday in the future' responded her wifey immediately
Reading the message, Sia felt her heart flutter. 'Oh, how she wished she could hug, kiss and cuddle with her wifey now but in her current situation, it did not seem possible anytime soon'
Though disspointed, just the idea of cuddling with her wifey fired up Sia's fighting spirit. She wanted to close this damn case as early as possible and go back to her wifey.
On the other side, after reading the text sent by Sia, Mu Jun smiled gently. After some thought, he looked through his contact and sent a text to someone
"Next time, could you please teach me how to make some desserts?"
"Sure!"
