After a moment of silence, Elisa asked, “Are we really not able to find any evidence at all?”
“That’s the case for now. Maybe it’s because of the short time. We might be able to find something if we take it slow, but there’s not much hope. After all, decades have passed. Even if there were some loopholes, they would’ve been eliminated and their traces wiped clean. Maybe everyone who knew something was dead.”
Elisa kept quiet.
Audrey told her daughter, “You don’t have to worry about this, Elisa. I have time. I’ll search for evidence slowly. It can surely be found one day as long as the current matriarch did commit the crime.”
“Mrs. Stone, I can let my brother know about this and request help from my sister-in-law’s brothers to investigate this matter. We can ask for Mr. Zimmer’s help too.”
Hudson Zimmer was the Houston family’s son-in-law. The Houston family had the same capabilities as the Buchams.
“I’ll let you all know when I need your help.”
There was strength in numbers.
Professional work should be handed over to the professionals.
“I’ll call my brother to inform him later.”
Remy felt it was a chance to prove himself.
Helping his future mother-in-law investigate her parents’ cause of death could improve her impression of him and win him brownie points. That way, he would be able to get his woman.
At that moment, the butler walked over. He glanced at Elisa before telling Audrey, “Mr. Julian is here, Mrs. Stone. He brought a bouquet, jewelry, and other gifts for Ms. Elisa again. He came alone.”
Everyone was speechless.
