Chapter 388
“What you did to my family that year... I don't think I need to remind you, right? You should know it clearly!” Nathan stared at him. “What right do you have to ask for my help? Do you think I'm going to help you?”
“But I have something you need more...”
“Then think about it, do you have a choice?” Nathan interrupted him calmly. “If you keep these things forever, Joseph will be very happy, but if you give them up, he will fall. So choose.” Nathan looked at him. “Honestly, wasn't your downfall today Joseph's doing? Richard, don't forget that you are also part of the Collins family!”
“Yes, I am also part of this family!” Richard Collins' body stiffened, and then he nodded.
“So can you talk now?”
“I know that Madame Collins was killed by Joseph that year.” Nathan pursed his lips and said nothing, waiting for an explanation. “Actually, there is an eyewitness to this case...”
“Did you see it?” Nathan asked, and Richard Collins nodded.
"Not me. There is a young nurse who took care of Madame, the one who testified against you. She said that before entering Madame Collins's room, who was ill, she heard some noises, and after you and Philip left, the nurse stayed in the room, and then Madame Collins said she wanted to rest and asked her to leave. Joseph had just entered at that moment. The young nurse returned to her office, but realized she had forgotten her tray, so she wanted to go back, and bumped into Joseph. Madame Collins and Joseph were fighting and arguing. Then Joseph pushed Madame Collins toward the table, and she hit her head on the corner and died...“
”How can you know this so clearly?" Nathan looked at Richard Collins.
“That young nurse and I had a relationship...” Richard Collins said. “That year, Joseph realized that I was in a relationship with that young nurse, so he secretly arranged for her to take care of Madame Collins to make things easier for him.”
“So what happened? Where is the young nurse now?”
“She died.” Richard Collins sighed. "At first she was good and lively, but after the Madame Collins case, she became very distracted and kept having nightmares. At that time I didn't care much and just received the news that she was dead.
I thought it was strange, so I came to visit her house and found a diary in her closet. She wrote in detail about Madame Collins' murder. She wrote that she took some photos during the crime. At that time, she was so surprised and afraid that Joseph would kill her too that she didn't dare to go inside. I found the photos on her computer, but Joseph doesn't know that. He asked her to testify, and she felt guilty, so she decided to commit suicide by jumping off a tall building.“
”Where are the photos now?“
”At my house. On my computer."
“Why didn't you give the photos to Joseph at that time?”
“I wanted to leave myself a way out,” Richard said. “I didn't expect that this way could also help me.”
“All right, I'll go after the things!” Nathan stood up and said.
He had always been looking for evidence about his grandmother's death, and everyone thought that there were no eyewitnesses or evidence, but he didn't expect that Richard Collins could obtain them.
No matter what happens, Nathan feels grateful.
In the end, Joseph will be punished for what he did, and they found important evidence for Madame Collins' case, and Gabriel will also testify against him.
His downfall would be no better than Richard Collins'.
They left the detention room and got into the car.
“Mr. Collins, should we go to Richard Collins' house now?” Marlon asked.
“Okay, let's go to his house, because I want to see those photos.” Nathan was somewhat emotional, not as calm as before.
Madame Collins' case had been dragging on for two years, and he had been unable to find a way to punish Joseph according to the law. Finally, he had managed to find evidence. How could he not be excited?
“If we go in like this, Richard Collins' wife, I'm afraid she won't let us in. I heard that his wife doesn't care about him anymore, and she hates him very much!” Marlon said.
“Don't you have someone you know at the police station?” Nathan thought for a moment. "You should ask them to do it. Ah, yes, let's not make this public first to avoid inadvertently alerting the enemy, and also, we can't let Joseph know."
Marlon took care of the case, and since he knew someone in the police force, he went to Richard Collins's house to investigate the case. He went to the study and found the photos inside the laptop, and handed them to Nathan.
Nathan and Marlon waited outside and looked at the photos seriously.
The photos showed Joseph fighting and arguing with Madame Collins, and they were pulling and pushing each other. There is another photo that captured the moment when Joseph pushed Madame Collins.
The last photo showed Joseph getting rid of the evidence.
These photos were discovered two years later, and Marlon pursed his lips.
“Unexpectedly, he manages to act so calmly after killing someone, and he didn't even show any expression of guilt. He just went to wash his hands and collect all the evidence. What did he feel at that moment?”
“What did he feel?” Nathan laughed coldly for a moment and picked up his cigarette. “He hates the Collins family so much, what else could he feel?”
Marlon said nothing more and just sighed.
“What should we do now?”
“I'll take care of it.”
“Mr. Collins, are you going to look for Joseph?” Marlon asked.
“But I won't go now, tomorrow.” Nathan nodded.
Nathan went home and sat on the couch, and called Stella.
“Let me show you something?”
Stella approached and sat down next to him.
“What is it?”
Nathan picked up his phone and opened the gallery, then handed the device to Stella.
“Take a look.”
“This is...” Stella took the phone and looked at it seriously.
“Richard Collins gave it to me.”
“How could he have these photos?” Stella was very surprised.
