Capítulo 224: The same house

"Yes, Lucius? It's almost seven. Shouldn't you come home by now?" Layla's voice carried a hint of worry.

"I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, Wife," Lucius said, his tone apologetic but steady. "But I've stumbled upon something interesting. Orabela's old number was used to give away your location on the day of the attack. I'm at your family home right now, interrogating her. However, she denies any involvement."

Layla paused, her confusion evident. "So? Why are you calling me about this?" She felt Lucius would have handled it in his own way.

Lucius sighed, his voice lowering slightly. "Orabela claimed you bought her a new SIM card a few months ago, and that she stopped using the first number after that. I wanted to confirm it with you."

"That's correct," Layla replied. "I got her a new SIM card a while back. She's been using the second number ever since, not the old one."
