Los Angeles Detective

Chapter 48 Proud of You

seven o'clock in the evening.

Daisy's house.

Daisy was busy in the kitchen, wearing a pink apron that still couldn't hide her graceful figure.

"Ding dong..."

A doorbell rang.

Daisy walked to the door, checked the access control video, breathed a sigh of relief, and opened the door.

Luke stood at the door and took out a bouquet of roses from behind, "For you."

"Wow..." Daisy took the rose and smelled the fragrance, "Thank you, I didn't expect you to have a romantic side."

"As long as you don't feel corny."

"No, no matter what time it is, women like flowers." Daisy stepped aside, "Come in, dinner will be ready soon."

"Do you need my help?"

"Can you set the table for me?"

"Of course." Luke washed his hands and helped Daisy prepare dinner together.

Fried steak, grilled tuna, vegetable salad, mashed potatoes, mushroom soup, big Lieba, red wine.

The two sat on both sides of the dining table, and Daisy held up the red wine, "Toast to you."

"It should be me who respects you for preparing such a sumptuous dinner."

The two touched a glass, and Daisy said, "I haven't cooked for a long time, how about the taste?"

Luke cut a piece of steak and tasted it, "It's very tender and tastes good, I like it very much."

The two chatted while eating, talking about ideals, hobbies, and some interesting things.

After the meal, Luke took the initiative to brush the tableware, and his thoughtful behavior added a little bit to Daisy's heart.

Luke washed the dishes and walked out of the kitchen. Daisy had already prepared the fruit plate and red wine.

Luke took the red wine glass, clinked glasses with Daisy, and took a sip, "Want to talk about the case?"

"Can we talk? I know you have a confidentiality agreement."

Luke quipped, "Not as strict as your lawyers."

Daisy chuckled, "Is there any progress in the investigation?"

"We re-interrogated the robber Tim, who killed his confession and refused to admit that there were other accomplices."

"Why? He doesn't want to taint witnesses?"

"It's hard to say now, but he is very firm and can only investigate from other directions."

Daisy pursed her red lips, "Do you need my help?"

"Tomorrow, we will go to the hospital where Lawn lives to investigate, and chat with his family members by the way. It is best to call the beneficiary of the will to the hospital."

Daisy nodded, "I'll try my best."

...

Home Hospital.

This is a private hospital located in the suburbs of Los Angeles. The environment is very beautiful. There are no group wards, only double rooms, single rooms and deluxe rooms.

Daisy led Luke and David into the inpatient building.

Looking at the facilities of the hospital, David said with emotion, "The environment here is better than the hotel where I went on vacation."

"Maybe this is the happiness of rich people." Luke smiled, and asked Daisy who was beside him, "Has Lawn's family arrived?"

"I contacted Lawn's wife and asked her to come to the hospital with her children and talk to them about the will. I believe they will come."

David asked, "How many testamentary beneficiaries are there?"

"I don't know the specific content of the video will." Daisy led the two up to the third floor and stopped at the door of Ward 302. "Lauen is in this ward."

Luke reminded David in a low voice, "Try to talk as little as possible for a while."

This big brother's violent temper will definitely hurt someone.

David said dissatisfied, "You don't seem to be the detective yet?"

"It will be soon." Luke followed Daisy into the ward.

The ward is an open room of more than 30 square meters. On the right hand side is the bathroom. There are beds, cabinets, tables, and TV sets in the ward. There is a faint smell of medicine in the ward.

Lying on the hospital bed was a man in his fifties, with brown hair and a medium build, wearing a light blue spotted hospital gown with an oxygen mask on his face.

On the left side of the hospital bed sat a middle-aged woman full of jewels, and on the right side stood a woman in her twenties.

Standing on the bed was a young doctor in a white coat and a stethoscope.

Luke has read Lawn Bull's profile and learned about his family situation.

Lawn's wife is Caroline Bull, and the two belong to a remarried family.

Lawn has a daughter, Sophia, and Caroline, a son, Brooke Pierce.

Lawn and Caroline remarried and had a young daughter, Emma.

The jeweled middle-aged woman asked, "Lawyer Daisy, what do you want us to do?"

"Sorry, I didn't make it clear on the phone. In fact, I have encountered some troubles and I want to ask you for help." Daisy showed an apologetic look, pointing to Luke and David to introduce,

"This is Detective Luke, and that is Detective David."

The middle-aged woman frowned slightly and asked, "Daisy, what do you mean by calling the detective? You better give me a reasonable explanation."

Daisy walked to the hospital bed and asked concerned, "How is Mr. Lawn's condition? Has it improved?"

The middle-aged woman answered irrelevantly, "Please don't change the subject."

Daisy sighed softly, "Since Mr. Lawn was hospitalized, I have also encountered some bad things during this time.

On March 2, someone illegally broke into my office to steal documents.

On March 3, I was robbed on the street.

On March 15th, someone sneaked into my home and installed a surveillance camera in the study room to secretly take pictures.

I called the police. The police thought it might have something to do with Mr. Lawn's entrustment of the will. I would like to invite you to come over and have a chat. "

The young woman showed a look of surprise, "My dear, is what you said true? This is too scary."

"Miss Sophia, these two are detectives from the 'Robbery and Murder Division', they can prove my words."

Luke took the opportunity to ask, "Miss Sophia, are you Mr. Boone's eldest daughter?"

"Yes." Sophia replied, pointing to the middle-aged woman and the man in the white coat and said, "This is my stepmother Caroline, and Brooke."

Luke looked at Brooke, "Are you a doctor in this hospital?"

Before Brook could answer, her mother, Caroline, said proudly, "My son is a resident doctor in this hospital and also my husband's attending doctor. Thanks to him...Lauen's condition has improved."

Luke asked, "How's Mr. Lawn doing? What's wrong with him?"

Brooke replied, "The lack of oxygen in the brain leads to a coma. After fainting, the head is injured and the brain stem is damaged to a certain extent. The coma, the situation is more difficult."

Luke suggested, "Can I see the diagnostic report?"

Brook was stunned for a moment, "Sorry, this is related to the patient's privacy."

Luke looked at Sophia, "I heard that your father left a video will, can I have a look?"

Before Sophia could answer, stepmother Caroline refused, "No, that's a very private thing. It's Lawn's farewell to his family. What right do you have to ask for that?"

Luke said, "It's not a request, it's just a chat."

"We have nothing to talk about." Caroline said to Daisy on the side, "lawyer, please take these two detectives away. Also, please respect your profession. If you reveal to the police that I Another will of the husband, I will sue you."

"Without Mr. Lawn's permission, I won't show it to anyone. I'm sorry for causing trouble to you because of my personal reasons." After Daisy finished speaking, she looked at Luke aside,

"Let's go."

After leaving the ward, David said lightly, "I didn't say anything."

Luke put his arm around David's shoulders, "I'm proud of you."

David pointed his middle finger, "Are you going to leave in such a disgruntled manner?"

"Then what's your idea?"

"Come with me." David walked to the triage desk and asked a female nurse, "Excuse me, which floor is the dean's office?"

The little nurse asked back, "What's the matter with you?"

David flashed his badge.

"The easternmost side of the 5th floor."

"Thank you." After David finished speaking, he took the elevator up to the fifth floor.

Daisy stood beside Luke and asked softly, "Does your colleague know the dean?"

Luke was in a complicated mood, "I got to know each other soon."
