Chapter 153 153: Go On Vacation



Joseph knew that he couldn\'t hide all these things from her, so he stretched out his hands and touched her nose. "You have to know that this is a complicated matter, but at least one thing can be made certain, it is Leo who is trying to destroy the Runestone Group. He has waited for a proper chance like this for a long time, and it\'s also true that those board members want to remove me. After all, the company has suffered huge losses because of me."

"So you just let this news go out? Joseph, is this your way of preventing me from getting involved in this matter? Go on a vacation? How could I go on a vacation at this critical moment?" Irish didn\'t know whether to smile or cry.

But Joseph just patted her head and said, "Trust me. What you should do at this point is to travel and enjoy yourself."

"It is easy to quiet down a rumor, but it\'s difficult to clarify the news that the media have already reported. Yes, this might be the best way to protect Ruby and me, but we don\'t want it." Irish strongly disapproved that he was trying to attract the media attention to himself. She continued, "If you continue like this, you will destroy yourself."

But Joseph did not want to listen to her long speech, and he held her tightly and said with a smile, "I\'m still your boss, and you will go on this trip; otherwise, I\'ll deduct your bonus."

"You..."

"Okay, so that\'s settled," Joseph said smugly.

He was being stubborn, and Irish knew that it was useless to argue with him. She said with a sigh, "Give me some time to consider it."

During their conversation, his cell phone rang several times. After hearing this, he felt relieved and picked up his phone to call back. Sitting on the couch, Irish held a cup in her hand, and gradually she began to feel anxious, watching him standing beside the window. She did not want to owe anyone anything.

During this period, she didn\'t accept any cases and asked for time off from Tim, who was aware of the scandal. For the sake of the general situation, he agreed to her request. Fredrick also called her several times during this period, but she told him that she was fine to reassure him. Cassie also worried about her, and she told her the specific situation of the Runestone Group. In short, the board of directors had lost their confidence in Joseph, and some of the directors even requested that Henry step in to manage the company again, but Henry never responded.

After hearing this news, Irish hastily asked Cassie how she might improve the situation. After thinking for a while, Cassie stated that there were two methods to reverse the overall situation. The first one was to clarify the news that Joseph had a mistress, while the second was that Joseph could take on the diamond mine project in South Africa because the diamonds inside were priceless.

Recently, when Joseph called her, he only focused on her journey to Uyuni, so she did not have a chance to ask him about it.

The next day, she got the news from Jay that the prisoner who had dismembered those people had killed himself, which worried her.

When Irish arrived at the prison, Jay was talking with the legal examiner. He briefly introduced the situation to her with a severe expression. "The prisoner sharpened a toothbrush and pierced it into his neck."

Irish closed her eyes, and she sensed the smell of blood in her nose. The man had ended his life before she could make a psychological evaluation of him.

"He left a strange sign on the wall. Please go check it out." Jay thought it was necessary to let Irish know all the information since he had cleared up this case through the use of Irish\'s analysis.

Irish nodded and went into the prison with Jay.

The wall of the cell was stained with blood, indicating that he had committed suicide facing the wall. Irish was confused and couldn\'t understand why the prisoner had killed himself in front of this wall.

Soon she found the answer. Just as Jay had told her, there was a pattern on the wall that was carved in with something hard. She observed it carefully and found that it looked like a butterfly. Irish thought it was weird, but she could not figure it out. Under the pattern, a line of words was carved, "He went into the city of God and punished the guilty people with his wings. I am guilty, so I am willing to follow him."

Squatting beside Irish, Jay stared at the pattern and frowned. Then, after a long while, Irish hesitantly said, "It doesn\'t look like usual graffiti."

"Can you find any meaning in these words? Just as you said, he is obsessed with the occult. Are these words related to his weird behavior?"

But Irish couldn\'t decipher it in such a short time.

When she walked out of jail, the sunlight made her slightly dizzy, and the words lingered in her mind: He went into the city of the God...

Though the criminal was gone, his family and the families of his victims still wanted a psychological evaluation of him. She understood that they just wanted to find comfort in it because they believed that he killed people due to mental illness. On the one hand, she was willing to do that for them because she felt terrible for them. On the other hand, it was easy to deduce from his modus operandi and interrogation video that he was seriously mentally ill.

Jay also agreed with her, and before she left, he said, "Go to the police station and get something for me."

When Jay left, Irish went to the parking lot. She didn\'t worry about being followed by reporters here. But soon, a middle-aged man blocked her way. He introduced himself, and then Irish realized that he was one of the victim\'s family members, and he hoped that Irish could make a psychological evaluation to prove that the criminal was not mentally ill.
