“No, it's okay.” Shane wasn't at all interested in that.

Whatever grudge Sean has with Sam and Catherine won't change my mind about having all three of them pay the

price for my parents' murder!

“Figure out another method since Sam and Catherine aren't useful in luring Sean out,” he murmured wearily as he

massaged his temples.

Silas nodded in assent. “Understood.”

“Also, speed up the investigation on my parents' interpersonal relationship,” Shane ordered.

Some families were infuriated that he was investigating them and phoned him last night, demanding to know the

reason.

Considering the fact that such an investigation was undoubtedly offensive and would arouse suspicion that he was

planning something nefarious, it had to be done swiftly.

“Understood,” Silas answered once more.

After he had left, Natalie munched on the apple and inquired, “Are you investigating their interpersonal relationship

to unearth the second culprit?”

Shane grunted in affirmation. “Yeah, but eighteen years have passed, so many of their interpersonal relationships

have been severed. Hence, it's difficult to investigate all of them.”

“In other words, the possibility of finding the second culprit through this method is low,” Natalie commented.

Sighing wearily, Shane replied, “Still, I've got to try. Perhaps there will be a clue in Grandpa's will, but we don't even

know where it is right now.” “Yeah, it'll be great if we have a clue,” Natalie remarked while flipping her hair.

Pursing his lips, Shane admitted, “There is a clue, but I can't decipher it.”

“What do you mean?” Natalie gaped at him.

“I found a letter in Grandpa's room some time ago,” Shane confessed. “It's written that the will is with my parents,

but my parents have been deceased for eighteen years. Thus, this clue about the will feels contradictory.”

“Indeed, it seems so. But who stipulated that it must mean being in the possession of a living person?” Natalie

countered with a smirk.

Shane's expression froze for a moment when he heard that. “You mean, the will may very well be in my parents'

grave?”

“Probably not since no one would desecrate a grave. At most, it may be somewhere beside the grave,” Natalie

postulated.

Shane's hands balled into fists. “Perhaps you're right.”

Generally, no one would ever consider that the will would be beside the grave. After all, it would never cross one's

mind that someone would actually hide something in such a place.

However, it was precisely the impossibility of it that made it all the probable.

“Why don't you have someone search there, Shane?” Natalie suggested.

Shane nodded. “That's for sure, but I'll do it myself when I go back tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Natalie bobbed her head.

Shortly after, Shane left to meet with Governor Stephen.

He owed him a favor for having dealt with the matter, so he had to repay him.

Natalie stayed in the villa alone, snacking on fruits while watching television.

It so happened that news of the staff from the obstetrics and gynecology department of several hospitals being

detained for investigation was playing on the television right then.

Now that the public had learned about the misdeeds of the obstetrics and gynecology departments of those

hospitals, their reputations were suddenly called into question.

Many pregnant women who had their prenatal checkups at the hospitals even took to staging protests.

In short, the entire incident was a huge mess and probably wouldn't subside anytime soon.

Nonetheless, Natalie had no sympathy for them since they were merely reaping what they sowed.

In the afternoon, Sally came back with the children.

When she returned, she hurriedly rushed up to Natalie. “Nat, I discovered something!”

“What is it?” Natalie queried as she sipped her milk.

Sally hesitated, throwing a glance at the children.

Instantly comprehending that it wasn't a matter for young ears, Natalie smilingly said, “Take your sister upstairs to

play, Connor.”

“Okay,” Connor assented. Then, he obediently headed toward the stairs while pulling Sharon along.

But when he left, a flash of something glinted in his eyes as he looked back over his shoulder at Natalie and Sally.

In no time, Natalie and Sally were the only ones left in the living room.

Natalie put down her glass of milk. “Well? Spit it out.”
