Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1416

"Sonny is right. That's exactly why I didn't dare to tell you." Rose sighed.

Toby pursed his lips, letting go of his doubts. "Okay. I understand your intentions now, Grandma."

Rose smiled. "I'm glad you do. After all, the one who died is my son, and I want revenge more than anyone else, but I can't just drag my grandson into it just because I'm too eager to avenge him. That's why I chose to keep it a secret for the time being and wait to see if you would recover, and fortunately, you returned to normal in the end."

"Grandma, why didn't you tell me after I went back to normal for all this time? I even had to find out for myself," Toby interrogated.

Rose smiled helplessly. "That's because I know that you can find the murderer with your abilities, so I don't have any reason to tell you. Look, you've just recovered and you already found the culprit. That's a really impressive feat. So, I chose to watch over you quietly. I believe that you will avenge your father."

"I see." Toby rubbed his temples and asked, "Then, Grandma, how did you find out that Connor killed Father back then?"

Sonia listened quietly as well, wanting to know the answer.

Rose's wrinkled face darkened at his question. "There's something I haven't told you yet. Actually, when your father got married, Connor attended his wedding, and I clearly saw the murderous intent in the way he looked at your father. At that time, I was immediately on high alert and secretly guarded against that snake, and I also told your father to watch out for himself. He agreed, and he did start bringing a bodyguard around with him after that. However, in the next decade, your father was safe and sound while Connor peacefully remained in Westsanshire without leaving that place, so I began to think that he only looked at your father that way during his wedding but didn't plan to do anything to him. Then, we dropped our guard."

At this point, she wrung her hands, overwhelmed with sorrow. "We never saw it coming. I underestimated that snake's tolerance. The moment we lowered our guard, he immediately made his move on your father. He really is cruel; he was able to hold back for more than ten years without doing anything just to kill your father, all so he could loosen our guard and find an opportunity to off him with a single blow. When news of your father meeting harm abroad reached our country, I immediately suspected Connor, but his records were too clear, so I couldn't find any proof that he did it in the next few years. However…"

Rose huffed. "If he could hold back for over a decade without making any moves to kill your father, I can obviously do the same. At my age, I've already trained my patience long ago, and I can spend a large amount of time and patience looking for him. I believed that I could find the evidence to prove that he was the culprit one day, and as expected, this investigation went on for seven years. The spy I hired infiltrated the Salzburg Residence, and at some point, he heard Connor muttering to himself with a picture of your mother in his hand, describing how he killed your father. Unfortunately, the spy only heard this by chance and didn't have any recording equipment with him, or we would've had concrete evidence by now."

It really is a huge shame. Sonia sighed.

Hearing that, Toby frowned. "Grandma, is the person you hired to infiltrate the Salzburg Residence still there?"

"Of course. He's always been looking for evidence," Rose said with an icy expression, "Although Connor has hidden his trail well, is it possible to not leave any evidence of something he's done before? It isn't. There must be something that can prove that he killed your father, so he's been laying low in the Salzburg Residence during the past few years. We haven't been hearing any good news, but I know that Connor isn't in Westsanshire now and is in Seafield, so it's given the spy more time to look for evidence."

"Grandma, can you hand him over to me?" Toby narrowed his eyes.

Rose raised an eyebrow. "You want me to hand the spy to you?"

"That's right." Toby nodded and explained, "I will definitely avenge Father properly, so hand him over to me, and I will give you a perfect result, Grandma."

Hearing that, Rose smiled. "Sure. I'll tell you how to contact him later. Actually, I was planning to give him to you too."

"Thank you, Grandma." Toby nodded.
