Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 639

When Yolanda remained silent, Flynn repeated impatiently, "Did you not understand what I just said?"

"Enough, Flynn. Get out." Gavin had caught Yolanda's subtle mood shift and frowned.

"Mr. Savage?" Flynn looked hurt that Gavin would snap at him over a woman he had known for barely two months. His wounded feelings made him glare at Yolanda again.

Caught in the crossfire for no reason, Yolanda felt speechless. She had always seen Flynn as something of a little brother, so his words did not really bother her. Besides, she and Gavin were the ones keeping him in the dark, so he had every right to complain a bit.

Just as she was about to change the subject to lighten the mood, her phone rang. She was surprised after seeing who the caller was.

Xavier was actually giving her a call this late. "Ms. Henderson, Donovan is dead."

Yolanda paused, then casually moved to the window with her phone. This news would keep countless people awake tonight.

…

The next day, Yolanda called Joel to get details and let him know she was coming. She then headed to the district hospital's morgue. When she arrived, Joel and Viktor were already there with others.

"Cardiac arrest from external trauma. There's a needle mark at a pressure point near the heart."

"A needle mark?" Yolanda paused. Then, she suddenly understood Xavier's hesitation on the phone earlier.

"Yes, it's an extremely fine puncture. We suspect the murder weapon was an acupuncture needle that's commonly used in traditional medicine."

After the examiner finished, Joel and Viktor both looked at Yolanda. Neither believed she had killed Donovan, but someone was clearly trying to frame her for Donovan's death.
