Chapter 886:
Lowe momentarily froze, showing a flicker of worry. “Tessa is missing? When did this happen p>
Something seemed to click for Lowe, and he glanced in Lily’s direction. Lily gave Lowe a scornful look, clearly viewing him as a complete disgrace.
Lowe instantly turned pale.
Yelena’s sharp gaze caught every detail. She was certain that Lowe was concealing the truth.
Yelena moved closer, her gaze intense as she confronted Lowe. “Lowe, it’s all in your eyes. That night at the bar, Tessa glanced toward the door, and her expression was one of fear. You were there, weren’t you? How do you explain that p>
Lowe fell silent, unable to withstand Yelena’s intense scrutiny. He looked down at his feet, visibly overwhelmed.
The officers were persistent. “Mr. Ferguson, the dashcam footage clearly shows you at the bar entrance. We need the truth about what happened to Tessa p>
Lowe hesitated for a moment before responding, “Alright, I was at the bar and saw Tessa. We didn’t speak. I was just observing her from afar. I have no idea why she vanished. I didn’t harm her p>
Yelena’s expression darkened. She sensed that Lowe was still holding back information, but time was pressing.
She addressed the officers, saying, “Regardless of whether he is being truthful, our main focus has to be on locating Tessa now. His story is inconsistent, but we can’t afford to delay.” The officers acknowledged with nods.
The questioning went on, but Lowe’s answers, clouded by his intoxication, were confusing and clearly meant to avoid the truth.
“Mr. Ferguson, cut the nonsense. We need to know what really transpired between you two p>
Lowe clutched his head, saying, “I can’t think straight! My head is throbbing p>
The officers shared looks of frustration, their patience wearing thin. At that moment, Yelena received new evidence from Brody, a video clip.

She played the video for Lowe to see.
It captured Lowe making a grab at Tessa, who broke free and fled.
Lowe pursued her, both soon moving out of the camera’s view.
The video stopped abruptly, leaving their subsequent actions unknown. Yelena seized Lowe by the collar, her tone sharp as she said, “You still claim you were merely an observer p>
Lowe turned pale, taken aback by the revealing footage.
With a nervous glance toward Lily, he silently pleaded for her support.
Yet, Lily appeared dumbstruck by his appeal, uncertain how to react.
Lowe’s face darkened as a sudden realization struck him. He began to struggle fiercely, his voice rising in anger as he demanded, “Lily, what exactly did you do to Tessa p>
Lily found Lowe’s outburst amusing.
“Seriously, Lowe, have you lost your mind?” Lily snapped, her eyes widening. “We’ve been covering for you all this time, cleaning up your messes. And now that Tessa is missing, you’re pinning it on me?” Lily could hardly believe Lowe would say something so reckless in front of the police. He was completely out of his mind!
Lowe’s accusation immediately drew the officers’ attention, and their focus shifted to Lily. One of them stepped forward and said, “Miss Ferguson, we’ll need you to cooperate with our investigation p>
Lily was livid, jabbing a finger in Lowe’s direction. “Don’t believe a word from this drunken fool! He’s talking absolute nonsense p>
Despite Lily’s vehement denials, both she and Lowe were taken to the police station for further questioning.
