Chapter 2563
“I hope so too, Mr. Taylor.” Nollace put down the cup and stood up. He slowly fastened the
buttons on his shirt and turned around.
Lucius watched and clenched his fists tightly as Nollace slowly disappeared from his vision.
The butler breathed a sigh of relief, but a hint of fear lingered in his heart. “Sir, what do we
do now?”
Lucius stopped beside him and ordered, “This is your own business. You figure out how to
settle it. I’ll get rid of you if you can’t settle it.”
The butler’s face turned pale with fear.
Edison was standing in front of the car while Nollace came out of the Taylor manor. He
opened the door for him, and they got into the car. Edison then started the engine and
drove away.
While they were on their way back, Edison looked at the rear mirror and said, “Mr. Knowles,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyour visit will definitely arouse Mr. Taylor’s vigilance. If it’s really related to him, he’ll surely
erase everything that can raise our suspicion.”
Nollace placed his hand on his forehead and leaned on the window. “Motivation–wise,
Cecelia is the only one who benefited from Clover’s death, especially since her reputation is
at risk right now.”
Edison was stunned. “Are you saying that he’ll choose to take someone’s life just to restore
Cecelia’s reputation?”
“Don’t forget that Lucius is someone who values interests more than anything else. If his
daughter admits that she has joined forces with Clover and caused Daisie to have a
miscarriage, Cecelia and the entire Taylors‘ reputation will be greatly affected in the
aristocratic circle.
“Once Clover is dead, Cecelia just needs to divert the attention to a dead person. A dead
person won’t be able to defend themselves, so the public will never know the truth.”
Edison frowned. “But I thought Mr. Colton had already exposed their call records?”
Nollace chuckled. “Everything in this world, including the truth, can be forged.”
Understanding soon dawned upon Edison. Given the Taylors‘ power and status, even a call
record would not be able to do anything if they wanted to divert the public’s attention to
something else.
Once everyone lost their interest in this matter, the Taylors could even make fake evidence.
With their strong connections, they just needed to hire some ghostwriters to write
something on the Internet, and they would be able to twist the truth easily.
Nollace squinted and said, “But I do notice something interesting.”
“What is it?” asked Edison.
Something flitted across Nollace’s eyes as he said, “When I mentioned Bart, the butler
seemed a bit nervous.”
He would never let any evidence slip past his eyes. The reason he had purposely mentioned
Bart was to observe their reaction.
Edison was stunned. “His butler?”

Nollace sat up straight and said, “It’s time we look into the Taylors‘ butler.”

Meanwhile, at the film college…
Freyja came to Professor Merlin’s office. She knocked on the door and went inside after
getting his permission.
Professor Merlin put down his cup and raised his head. “It’s you. What’s the matter?”
She walked up to the desk and sat down. “Professor, I heard from Mr. Lancell that you’ve
studied criminal psychology before, right?”
Professor Merlin was stunned for a moment before chuckling. “Yeah, I did study that before
when ↑ was young. But why would you ask?”
Freyja’s eyes glowed up, and she said, “I’m sure you saw the news the other day about a
woman who was poisoned to death in prison, right?”
“You told me that this matter has something to do with the prince, right?”
She nodded and replied honestly, “My best friend is the prince’s wife. She’s pregnant. I’m
worried that it might affect her, so I want to do something to help her.”
