Chapter 323: EVIL

That night after Rose finished bathing, she stood in front of the mirror, staring intently at her reflection. At the same time, her mind was busy thinking about how to tell Evan what she knew about the explosion in Nova city.

To what extent did she have to tell Evan? Should she explain everything she knows or just talk about the outline?

Rose is worried that Evan would be suspicious if what she was about to tell him was too accurate. Rose’s knowledge — about the people that appeared on the CCTV footage and the exact location of another bomb that was about to go off — was indeed accurate.

Rose took another deep breath at the thought that her husband would think she was crazy. Or, perhaps he would think of her as one of the terrorists who had converted to being a good person and divulged all the secrets of the organization.

She suddenly wanted to laugh at the thought that her husband would actually think so.

There’s no way Evan would think that far right? How could someone as weak as she is a member of a notorious terrorist organization?

It wasn’t long before she came out of the bathroom and saw that the room was empty. She immediately looked for her husband outside and found him watching the evening news in the playroom in front of her bedroom.

Rose paused just to satisfy her eyes to see his good looks. A sight that no one out there had ever seen because only she had this privilege. Watching her dear husband in his casual home attire always mesmerized her weak heart.

Even though he only wears a white T-shirt and black training pants, his noble aura still radiates. How handsome he is.

"My dear wife, are you satisfied to see the face?" He asked in a gleeful tone. It made Rose blush.

A weak smile appeared as she sat down next to him. But her smile soon faded when she heard the news on television; Newscasters reported on the condition of the injured people after the Nova City explosion.

Rose’s body froze when she saw some of the victims who were still being treated in hospital on the television screen.

These terrorists are so evil! How did they plant a bomb at the famous busiest station in the city? When a lot of people are on their way to work!?

And painfully, not only adults are victims, but many children.

Rose’s heart ached when she saw some children lose their parents in this bombing incident. And the children themselves are now seriously injured.

The thought that the children would remember this incident for the rest of their lives made Rose’s heart ache even more. Unknowingly, her hands clenched so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

"Evil! This terrorist is so EVIL!" She muttered. Evan, sitting beside her, was shocked to hear that.

Slowly Evan turned to Rose. And how surprised he was when he saw his wife’s face flushed.

Rose was still watching television and was surprised when the screen suddenly went dark. She looked at Evan, confused, "W-Why did you turn off the television? I still want to see the news...." She asks as their eyes lock on each other.

"Wife, you better not watch this news. Your mood will definitely change..." Evan said calmly.

For some reason, Rose agreed with what Evan said. She should not have seen the condition of the victims now, or their images will fill her mind. What’s more, she knew what would happen next; further attacks would occur in several cities.

"Hubby, about the explosion. I know that the news circulating out there is false. I’m sure you know that too, right?" Rose continued, "I know very well that it was a well-planned terrorist bomb, not a gas pipe explosion."

"Hmm... I know that was one of the strong possibilities. But how could you be sure that it was a well-planned terrorist attack? Even the authorities have yet to conclude their investigation. Also, news media only report the explosion as a gas explosion, not a terrorist attack."

Rose frowned, "Didn’t you promise not to ask? I can’t say how I know. But, please believe what I’m about to say can be true..."

"Sorry, wife... I forgot." Evan immediately apologized for his mistake. He smiled and listened to her explanation in silence.

She immediately told him why she suspected the explosion wasn’t just a gas pipe explosion because the blast was so powerful. Plus, she knows a thing or two about a gas explosion. So, her suspicions led her to ask Oliver to find related CCTV footage for her.

To further avoid Evan’s suspicion, Rose also told Evan she learned it from watching detective series on TV. Detectives and police procedurals TV series — like The Blacklist, Sherlock Holmes, and NCIS — have made her want to investigate the incident. With that knowledge and her keen eyes, Rose convinced Evan that she could deduce the explosion was an act of terrorism. And some of the faces she saw in the footage could be the perpetrators.

Evan was taken aback by her explanation. If someone else said this, he would probably burst out laughing and brush it out under the rug. However, since Evan met his wife years ago, she had never said anything ridiculous like this. So, no matter how foolish her story sounds, he would take it as the truth and respond accordingly.

"Hubby, can you contact the authorities? Okay, let me rephrase it. Can you ask the authorities in charge of investigating the explosion to investigate the people I told you about?" Rose asked very carefully. Worried that her husband didn’t have someone he could trust to help her investigate all this. "Actually, I could have Oliver investigate those people, but I’m afraid he’ll think I’m crazy. So now I hope you can help me instead ...."

"You know you can trust me, wife! Send me all the photos of those people’s faces... I’ll get someone competent to investigate them." Evan immediately answered. He can locate anyone as long as the picture of their faces is clear enough.
