Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 165

“Now I finally understand the saying–when someone’s got no shame, they’re unbeatable. Perfect match, those two. May they be chained together for life.”

Autumn gave Selena’s shoulder a light pat in comfort. “I’m glad you can see it that way. Want me to drive you home?”

A man’s love could turn in a heartbeat, and only when a woman truly saw him for who he was could she break free and start anew.

That was why a woman had to stand on her own two feet, built something of her own, and earned her place in the world.

Selena dangled her car keys with a little smile. “No need. I drove here tonight. My brother bought me this new ride a couple of days ago. Want me to take you for a spin?”

To make it up to her, her parents and brother had gone out of their way to treat her well.

Anything she wanted, they did their best to give.

Compared to Autumn, Selena was definitely the lucky one. Losing a scumbag still left her with a family who adored her.

Autumn, on the other hand, had no one.

That was why Selena’s wounds healed faster because she’d been reminded how fortunate it was to be loved by family.

“Sure,” Autumn said with a nod. “I actually have something I want to talk to you about.”

She remembered Selena’s uncle was the chief of police here in Northhaven, and she might have even worked a case involving him in the past.

If she could get his contact information, maybe she could dig up old evidence and reopen her case.

The two of them got into the car, Selena chatting excitedly about her new ride and her life at home, almost as if she was letting off steam.

Autumn listened quietly, offering the occasional response, and waited for her chance to bring up what she really wanted to discuss.

When they rounded a bend, Selena finally fell silent, and Autumn seized the moment.

“Selena, is your uncle still chief of police in Northhaven?”

Selena nodded as she turned the wheel, glancing over at her in curiosity. “Yeah, he is. Why?”

Autumn hesitated before answering. “It’s like this–my uncle was also with the Northhaven police back then, but ten years ago, he was framed and sent to prison.

“Until the day he passed, his case was never overturned. But a few days ago, I saw that same girl from back then.

“I want you to ask your uncle if he can let me look into the old case files. I’ve got some evidence in my hands too.

Just thinking about it stirred something deep in Autumn’s chest.

She’d seen firsthand how her uncle had suffered over the past ten years.

If he hadn’t stepped in to help Jasmine’s family of ungrateful leeches back then, his life could have taken a completely different path–one bright with promise and potential.
