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, your 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.
