Edward's POV

When I got off from car, I forget my wallet there. Leth came running towards me Hey dude! you forgot your wallet in the car.

When he showed me my wallet, I quickly take it to check something.

What happened? is something missing? He asked me in confusion.

The ring! Leth, it is not in wallet! I said worried and became anxious.

What? The ring is not in it. Don't Worry! I will go and check it in car. He said and leave.

I can't lost it, That is the last thing I have....

There was a strange pain like a knife is piercing my heart, that was killing me. I quickly rans toward car.

Fortunately, Leth found the ring in the car and return it to me, making me relieved.

Edward, I can't see you like this anymore, that incident was happened 11 years ago, you should let go of it now. Leth said to me in a worried voice.

I know Leth and I want to, But everytime I want to let go, her face appears in front of me which filled me with a lot of guilt. A guilt that is slowly killing me. I said to Leth controlling my emotions.

I just want to tell you brother, it is not your fault, you tried to save her but that wasn't something she want. Just let go of it now. Leth said to me while putting his hand on my shoulder.

How should I tell you Leth, In this lifetime, I can never overcome that incident.

I put that ring in my pocket and busied myself in other works.

No matter how much I think about it, there is a connection in these two murders and the previous one. I don't have any evidence but only a feeling which is not sufficient to prove it.

I think I should talk to Charlie Water's wife again.

In the Interrogation room

Mrs. Waters, Can you tell me when your husband was murdered, where were you at that time. I asked her first question.

Are you insane, How many times do I have to tell you that I am the one who murdered my husband. Can't you understand it? She answered annoyed.

Who is the person you are saving? I again asked her.

What....who...what are you talking about? She answered with a little hesitation.

Your changed anxious face is telling everything. Think about your son Mrs. Waters, how will he survive without you, who are you saving, that person have nothing to do with your son but you have. I said confidently.

Your son will pay the consequences of your sin. Sin of saving a killer. I continued.

She started to think about the situation and I got up to leave.

Take some time and answer me soon. I leaves after said that.
