After divorce I am a billionaire novel Chapter 470

The corridor was dim. With a small flashlight, they could faintly see the closed door of each room.

Chad led Lyra onward, with the housekeeper following behind.

They opened a door. And it was a study.

The light in the study was capable of being turned on.

Chad waved at the two soldiers who were still waiting outside the iron door. Then they immediately trotted over and pretended to rummage through the study for the stolen earrings.

Chad then led Lyra and proceeded to open the door to another room.

The housekeeper took a deep and nervous breath, and continued to follow them.

The door was opened and it was a vacant bedroom with carved wooden furniture. It was minimalist but exquisite decoration. And it was spotlessly clean.

The housekeeper explained, "This is the former room of Mr. Callahan. Since he died, Mrs. Callahan often says she can see him in this room. And she's always sleepless at nights. Then the room has been vacant. Mr. Shane has the servants come once a day to clean."

Chad nodded his head. Two soldiers, who pretended to finish checking in the study, entered this bedroom and began to rummage carefully.

Exiting that bedroom, Chad looked at the room across.

Faintly, there were fine sounds of chains thumping coming from the room.

Chad turned back and looked at Lyra, who happened to be looking at him as well.

Both looked serious.

They had a bad feeling.

Chad was about to walk over and turn the doorknob when the housekeeper suddenly stopped in front of him and blocked the door.

"This room is Mrs. Callahan's current bedroom. She is already asleep. If you wake her up, she will be unhappy. You're absolutely not allowed to go in this room!"

The stronger the reaction, the more it meant that in this room, there was something unspeakable secret.

Lyra: "When I was a child, I often came here in this house. Caitlin likes me, and this time I lost my beloved earrings, I'm sure she'll understand."

Chad immediately had to go around the housekeeper and force the door open.

"Mr. Shane will be furious if he finds out!"

"Really! You can't enter!"

He grabbed the door frame and pressed it against the door, breathing heavily with tension.

Perhaps the noise outside was so loud that the sound of chains dragging on the floor came from inside again.

The two sides were at a standstill for a few minutes.

Seeing that it was getting late, Chad could only apologize, "Mr. Tom, I'm sorry!"

He pushed the housekeeper away with much strength. The housekeeper stumbled a few steps to the side and was held by a soldier who had finished checking the other room, in time so he didn't fall.

Chad took two steps forward. As he just held the doorknob, a man's angry yell came from the stairwell.

"Stop it!"

This sound ...

Chad and Lyra looked to the iron door at the same time, and Shane ran wildly all the way up the stairs. He was panting and his face looked furious.

Behind him there were several bodyguards who were carrying lights and followed him into the corridor.

Lyra frowned and tightened her grip. Shane had rushed back, and she was afraid it would be difficult to find Melissa and confirm her condition.
