Chapter 2567
At the detention center…
Under Yorrick’s arrangement, Colton got a chance to meet Nollace. “What the hell are you doing? Why did you get yourself in jail?”
Nollace leaned on the back of the chair and took a glance outside. “Why have you come to visit me? Do you have too much free time on hand?”
“Who would be free enough to come all the way here just to visit you? I’m asking what you want. You’ve got to the bottom of Daisie’s affairs and found out that it has something to do with the daughter of the Taylors. At the end of the day, why would you insist on investigating the death of the housekeeper?”
‘By doing so, this ba*stard just dug your own grave with your own hands, didn’t he?”
Nollace chuckled. “What you did to expose the recording won’t force the Taylors into compromising. Clover’s death has something to do with the Taylors, but the witness is now dead, and I haven’t found any other piece of evidence. If I didn’t come in and lock myself here, who else would do so?”
Colton crossed his arms. “Then what do you plan to do?”
He laughed again. “Are you worried about me?”
“Keep dreaming. All I want is for Daisie to stop worrying. Of course, if you were to have to spend years or even decades in prison for this crime, then I’d have no choice but to talk my sister into finding herself another husband. After all, the Goldmanns will never accept a son–in–law who’s been in prison.”
Nollace narrowed his eyes. “Don’t worry. I won’t go to prison, but since you want to help me, then I shall ask you for another favor.”
“Nollace Knowles, you b*stard, you’re quite a pro when it comes to pushing your luck, huh?”
“Same goes for you too. So, will you help a brother out or not?”
Colton was at a loss for words.
Not long after Colton left, Cecelia arrived at the detention center and asked to see Nollace. The police hesitated, but they gave her ten minutes to talk to him due to her identity.
Seeing Cecelia walk in, Nollace gave off a pregnant smirk. “What’s wrong, Ms. Taylor? Have you come to ridicule me?”
Cecelia sat across from him. “I’m here to negotiate a deal.”
“And what’s that?”
