Chapter 366 Asking Adeline for Help
"Did you make that call to the ambulance? At that time, Gage was looking for you, probably to leave a record."
Joe looked at him, "I suspect that he said it was Emilio who hit him on the phone, so there would be a recording and he could clear himself of suspicion. Gage wanted to drag you into it too, but you called the ambulance."
Joe lit a cigarette, his hand still shaking, "Ronan, I don't want to think so badly of Gage, but you don't understand how evil people can be when they're trying to protect themselves. You're from the March Family, you fear nothing. But Sean and I can't do that."
Ronan understood the logic.
No one would talk about this openly now.
Thick fog, halfway up the mountain, and the dashcam was broken.
The Watson family and the Gray family wouldn't let Joe and Sean testify.
The most crucial part was that call he took, Gage lied, and he became the Jones family's evidence to protect themselves.
Ronan lit a cigarette too; he never thought there was anything wrong with his friends before.
Gage liked to have fun, go to nightclubs, race cars, and he always invited him.
At first, Ronan wasn't used to it, but then Wyatt kept talking to him about it.
Gage always found ways to make him happy first.
Over time, Ronan thought it was fun too.
He really considered Gage a friend, but did Gage consider him a friend too?
Or was it just because his last name was March?
Ronan suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He sat in the car and smoked two cigarettes in a row.
Joe gave a bitter smile, "Ronan, you're much luckier than us. At least you don't have nightmares. When I close my eyes now, I see that scene. It's torturous."
"I want to pray for Emilio and that kid, but my family won't allow it. It's all surrounded." Joe's lips were pale, "Emilio and that kid have every right to resent me."
Ronan looked at him, "Do you really think you were wrong?"
"I've regretted it for a long time!" Joe murmured, "Ronan, thank goodness you called the ambulance, or even that celebrity wouldn't have made it."
Ronan gripped the steering wheel, "If the investigation comes out and the police ask you, will you tell the truth?"
"Yes." Joe's eyes brightened, "Ronan, I'm a coward, I don't have the courage to stand up, but if someone asks, I won't lie. That would be too scummy and too unfair to Emilio."
Ronan extinguished his cigarette, "There's someone who can solve this."
"Who can solve our problem?" Joe thought it was impossible.
Ronan made a U-turn, "Lyle's niece, let's go find her."
Joe was a bit confused.
Ronan explained everything to him.
Joe's mouth opened slightly, "She divined it? And then you didn't go."
"Yes, I remembered her words at the last minute." Ronan seemed to have finally found hope, "That girl has some abilities, she can definitely solve our problem."
Joe was no longer the dejected person he was earlier; he sat up straight, "As long as I can atone, I'll do anything. She should help me, right?"
"Not sure, we'll see when we find her." Ronan didn't believe in these things before.
Until this moment, he realized that sometimes one had to believe in things left behind by people from the past.
At the same time, Adeline was having someone tidy up her courtyard-style house.
Robert was wandering around, running here and playing there.
Adeline wasn't thinking about anything else, just how to contact Mia, whom she met yesterday.
The WhatsApp messages she sent hadn't received any replies.
Mia couldn't just forget about her, could she?
It was a bit strange.
