Chapter 85 We Will Find the Truth
But all the way until Paul died, Mandy had never shown any intention of leaving him.

That proved there was nothing wrong between the two of them. The rumors were all just outside
noise.
“The hospital is about to go public. I’ve been reviewing every case file one by one, and I came across Paul’s car accident record,” he said, his voice calm. “But then I remembered Wendy once told me that a witness saw Paul with his eyes still open when he was loaded into the ambulance- he was clearly still alive. The hospital, though, claimed he died on the spot. The statements don’t match. I can’t determine yet if it was the hospital’s fault, so it needs further investigation.”
Mandy knew that was just an excuse. Such a clumsy excuse could never fool her.
Now that Chase and Wendy’s relationship was starting to thaw, and Chase was still technically her son–in–law–just not remarried–there was no harm in telling him about the Quinn family’s
matters.
“Right after it happened, Mandy said, her voice low. “I immediately had people look into it. The hospital probably had someone from the Harrison family involved.”
So it was true.
Mandy lowered her eyes, looking a little sorrowful. Just like that celebrity who had an incident recently–even under your noses, a nurse still managed to give him an overdose. Back then, things weren’t as advanced as they are now. Even if you investigated, you wouldn’t have found anything. I had to let it go. I didn’t want Wendy to carry hate in her heart, so I told her the hospital wasn’t to blame.”
She never expected that Wendy would keep digging on her own, even after all these years.
If she had known, she would’ve told Wendy earlier that Paul’s death was tied to the Harrison family. Maybe then the whole running–away thing wouldn’t have happened.
“So you knew everything all along. Mandy Chase nodded slowly. “Got it. I’ll have someone look into it. But after all these years, most of the nurses back then aren’t even around. It’s going to be hard to trace anything. It might take more time.”
Marady let out a long sigh. I’ve been retired for so many years now. I never got involved in
mpany matter. But I’ve never been able to let Paul’s death go. If we can really find the truth.
Before she could finish. Chair mached out and gently held her cold fingertips. “We will find the truth. No matter how long it takes, the truth will come out!
Chase came hots carrying groceries. Wendy was still in the study working overtime. As soon as she brand the door, she called out, “Who did you go see? Why are you back
“I west to see another woman!” he shouted back

The two of them exchanged a couple playful jabs before the sound of notifications began chiming from Wendy’s laptop. She immediately jumped into a video call with the higher–ups: her company.
Scenes like this were once unimaginable.
Before, every time he came home, it was either darkness or cold silence Even if Wendy there, she’d never look at him.
The two of them had lived under the same roof for five years, yet felt like strangers. Not even as close as roommates working on a shared project
Chase headed straight to the kitchen, washing vegetables and getting dinner started. Every now and then. Wendy’s voice came from the study, talking in her meeting. This was the home he had always dreamed of
Wendy stayed in her meeting until right before dinner.
Chase sliced up some fruit and brought it to the study. But when he tried to leave. Wendy grabbed his hand, not letting him go.
“Alright, I get it. I’ve already handed over the Dragon Bay project to Ms. Zach, she said into the mic “She lost a project recently, and Dragon Bay’s one of our major pushes for next year. The entire team’s assembled and under her lead now–don’t let her screw this one up.
She muted her mie, turned her head, and gave Chase a pout. “Stay with me a bit, don’t go yet
“Stop messing around, the soup is still simmering” Chase chuckled, kissed her on the cheek, and nudged her hand away. “Dinner will be ready soon. Just finish up quickly.”
“Aye aye, captain.”
During dinner, Chase brought it up. “I dropped by Mandy’s place today. The house felt a bit empty
Maybe it was because the two of them rarely visited anymore. The whole house felt cold and Idris Mandy didn’t like socializing much either–she spent most of her time cooped up indoor
Tasked her about Paul’s death. Mandy didn’t look too happy. She admitted that she did lie to you back then. She said Paul still had his eyes open when they put him in the ambulance, like he was oking for something. That matches what the witness said. She looked into it for a long time. The only thing she told me was–there’s something wrong inside the hospital”
