The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 239

Grace frowned at Sofia’s message. Why is Reese getting suspicious about this now?

She tapped her fingers on the coffee table, eyes sharp and cold. After thinking for a moment, she grabbed her phone and dialed a number she didn’t recognize.

The call connected. A rough male voice answered, “Hello?”

“It’s me.” Grace’s tone was icy. “I know you’ve been out for a while. You need to keep your head down. Find somewhere to hide out, and honestly, you’d better start living under a different name.”

“Why?” the man asked, sounding confused. “Wasn’t all that stuff over and done with?”

He’d spent more than ten years in prison for that money. Now that he was finally free, why should he have to keep hiding?

“Someone’s looking into the accident from back then. She’s already started questioning me.”

Grace could tell he was hesitant, so her voice turned even colder. “If you don’t want to get caught, do what I say. If anyone finds out you took money for that job, we’re both finished. Got it?”

“…Alright. I understand.”

At the same time, Reese was just parking her car when her phone rang—Roman’s name flashed on the screen.

“Ms. Meyer, I’ve gone through your mother’s accident files. I found the driver who caused it.”“His name is Alex. He killed your mother while driving drunk. He was sentenced to nineteen years but got out a few years ago for good behavior. He’s living in Greenville now.

“I also discovered Alex’s bank account has been getting regular transfers from an overseas account—the same one that paid off the guy who tried to hit you.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Meyer. Now that we have this lead, we’ll keep digging.”

Reese’s grip tightened around her phone. Her eyes went cold.

So it really was the same person behind her mother’s accident and the one who tried to hurt her.

“Thank you, Mr. Sanchez.”

She hung up and rubbed her temples. Just then, her phone lit up again with a message from George.

She stepped into the elevator and checked the message.
