A Cue for Love novel Chapter 708

Chapter 708 She Will Still End Up Convicted

“Samuel Bowers, what do you mean?” Miguel staggered and pointed at Samuel in exasperation. “To stand up for a woman, you have the heart to pay no heed to your grandpa’s justice! Pfft! You even have the cheek to threaten us into compromising!”

“Mr. Samuel, you should think it through and put filial piety as your top priority. We had agreed to let you be the patriarch earlier due to our utmost trust in you. Bear in mind not to let us down because of this woman!” Yuvaan stated sorrowfully.

Xylan lambasted coldly, “Yeah! What a vicious woman! You’ll surely place the Bowers family in deep water if you insist on backing her up!”

“By hook or by crook, I’ll dig the culprit up. But I won’t let you interrogate her like a prime suspect without any evidence! Most importantly, we should investigate Grandpa’s death instead of barking up the wrong tree and claiming that she should be accountable for the matter!” Samuel emphasized solemnly with a glint of determination in his eyes.

His words sent the elders of the Bowers family into a tizzy. Their faces fell instantaneously.

Right that instant, Natalie could barely take her eyes off Samuel’s well-built figure. When she was about to open her mouth, the latter tightened his grip on her wrist.

He was seemingly trying to reassure her that he would stand up for her regardless of anything. Thus, she could stand behind him without uttering any words.

“As long as I haven’t stepped down as patriarch of the Bowers family, the decisions still lie in my hands.” Samuel gazed at Kenneth’s lifeless body wrapped in white cloth and added grimly, “I’ll get a professional coroner to perform an autopsy before Grandpa’s burial ceremony. Moreover, I’ll trace the root cause of his poisoning by investigating everyone taking care of him all this while, especially senior housekeepers like Jefford,” Samuel stated coldly. His eyes glistened with a flicker of unmissable frigidness.

Sensing Samuel’s penetrative gaze, Jefford cast his eyes down hastily. His body shuddered uncontrollably as a surge of guilt welled up from within him.

All the elders could not resist feeling disgruntled with Samuel’s resoluteness. Miguel snapped coldly, “Mr. Samuel, we respect your decision. But bear in mind that you only have two weeks. If you’re unable to unearth the truth behind Old Mr. Bowers’ death within two weeks, all of us will take charge of the matter. By then, we won’t let the one we believe to be the culprit off the hook! If you still insist on standing up for your woman at that moment, all the other elders and I will surely fight against you till the end!”
