True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 740
Jensen smiled and said, "Dr. Clarke, I've already told you, I am just here to ask you about Jodie. You are the one beating around the bush, not me."
Aaron was a little shocked. He looked sharply at Jensen. "I have told you everything. Who are you to come here and question me? I don't think I owe you an explanation about me and her, right?" "You' re right, you don't owe me an explanation." Jensen's anger was beginning to rise, but he kept his smile on his face. "Technically, it's true that you don't have any obligations to talk about you two." "So you'd better go back." Aaron took the opportunity to ask him to leave.
"But you told my girlfriend so much." Jensen paused, having no intention to leave. "And you voluntarily provide that information."
Aaron frowned as he retorted, "So what? I have such freedom to do so, don't I?"
"There's no need to be so sensitive. I just wanted to say that typically, people do things with a motive. You have your reasons." "Then you came to me with an underlying motive too?" Aaron asked in reply.
He stared at the USB flash drive in Jensen's hand.
"Yes." Jensen nodded and shook the flash disk in his hand. "You recognise this."
Aaron nodded. "I know that this belongs to Jodie. I have seen her with it."
"Where?"
"In Alsburg."
"Do you want to see the contents of it?" Jensen asked him with the USB flash drive in his hand.
Aaron chuckled and replied, "No, curiosity kills the cat. I'm not curious."
"There are two reasons one may not be curious. Firstly, you know that it will bring you trouble, so you'd rather not know anything at all in order to avoid it."
"Second, you already know what's on the USB flash drive, so you don't need to watch it anymore." Jensen looked at Aaron and smiled gently. "Dr. Clarke, which one are you?"
"I don't belong to either of them," Aaron replied coldly. "Ever since she suddenly be alive, Jodie and I no longer have anything to do with each other. I have moved on. Therefore, I don't want to know the contents of the USB flash drive." "Well, since you don't want to see it, then don't." Jensen chuckled; he did not take it to heart.
With a smile in his eyes, Aaron said, "If there's nothing else, you can leave."
"Yes, I was just about to." Jensen stood up and looked around again. He saw that the door of the study was open and the computer was on. He must have been looking at something. Jensen slightly smiled, nodded and stepped away.
After the door was closed.
Aaron's eyes darkened as he headed to the study.
After Jensen came out, he entered the elevator.
Soon, he saw Alex downstairs.
Jensen immediately instructed, "Cut off the electricity at Aaron's house."
"Cut off the electricity?" Alex was stunned.
Jensen nodded and continued, "Find a way to steal the computer from his room."
"Steal?" Alex repeated in astonishment.
"Hurry up! I'll leave this task to you."
"Yes!" Alex quickly arranged for someone to tamper with Aaron's electricity.
In the study.
Aaron had just sat down and typed a few words, but then a blackout happened. His laptop happened to have no backup battery, so the power got cut off immediately.
He frowned slightly and waited for a while, but the electricity did not come back on.
Aaron got up and left.
He came out to check the meter box, but the switch hadn't flipped, so it should not be a problem on his end.
He furrowed his brows. After a few seconds, he turned around and went out.
The elevator had electricity.
Aaron went downstairs to the first floor and soon found the building manager. "Why is there a blackout in my unit?"
"Sir, please wait a moment. Well check on it immediately."
Aaron waited in the building manager's office and his patience was running thin.
Not long after, the building manager found out what was going on and said to him, "Sir, the main switch below you had been switched off. We have switched it back on so there should be electricity now." "Thank you." Aaron quickly nodded and left.
When he went upstairs, he opened the door of the study and found that the computer inside was gone.
Aaron was stunned. His gaze was sharp as he scanned the study, his fists clenched tightly.
He had been duped.
At this time, Jensen and Alex had already left in a car. In the car, Alex said, "Officer Charm, we have stolen someone else's computer. What do you want it for?"
"Let's head back first," Jensen answered. "Find a hidden place for us to turn it on. If we replace something, Aaron will be exposed. If not, well send it back." "Yes, sir!"
Ten minutes later, they headed over to Alex's residence, turned on the computer and combed through the interface. They found an e-mail.
Jensen opened it and found that it was just an ordinary email. There was nothing unusual.
"It's not what we're looking for." Alex was also very disappointed.
Jensen poked around a little more and checked the internal storage. Eventually, he found something among the hidden files.
He opened it and found a video inside. It was the same video as the one in the USB flash drive.
This discovery stunned Jensen. He didn't expect that Aaron had already seen this video before.
He paused for a second and said to Alex, "Make a copy of everything on this computer. We can check it and sort it out later." "Understood."
Alex quickly backed it up and made a copy of it.
By the time they were done, an hour or so had already passed.
Jensen then said, "Send me back. I'm going to see Aaron again."
"Okay!" Alex then took Jensen back to the Hart Villa District.
They arrived at Aaron's building, but before they got out of the car, Aaron was already waiting there. He looked at Jensen coldly and said, "You came to my home and took away my computer. How cunning indeed."
"It's true that I took your computer away. If I didn't take the computer away, how would I have been able to know more about you?" Jensen smiled and admitted it openly. "Although my methods are disgraceful, it's better than asking the police to come and arrest you themselves. What do you think? Dr. Clarke, are you going to talk to me, or should we go to the police station?"
"Why do you want to arrest me?" Aaron chuckled emotionlessly.
"The video." Jensen responded. "You have Jodie's video saved here. That's a fact. We should talk about how you came across it, no?"
"I got it from Jodie," Aaron replied. "I made a copy in case I might need it in the future."
"Your purpose of saving such a video is a little suspicious."
"I saved it for self-protection," Aaron returned in a low voice. "In order to protect myself. I don't think that that's too much, is it?"
Jensen raised his eyebrows and looked at Aaron as an intense gaze flashed through his eyes. "Dr. Clarke, that's what you say, but whatever your real purpose is, it'll all be revealed soon enough. Perhaps we can invite Jodie along to our discussion as well."
"What's wrong?" Aaron sneered, "You are a policeman. Are you looking to knowingly break the law?"
"I'll bend the rules just this once. Alex, take Dr.
Clarke with us. He's about to be our guest."
