My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 

Daniel and Shan were stunned. Weren’t they just discussing Lily? How did it suddenly shift to the Four Great Families

However, Daniel didn’t ask further and simply nodded. Understood” 

Lold lit a cigarette and looked out window, his gaze intense. A storm’s brewing” 

o Madam 

Shwan’s heart skipped a beat. Do you mean someone’s plaming to move against the Four Great Families? But how is this related to Max Hutchinson’s death?” 

Loid turned around, his eyes deep and thoughtful. “She was from the Hutchinson family.” 

But wasn’t she disowned by them?Shaan was puzzled. And besides, she’s already dead. What more use could she have?” 

Loid said slowly, It’s Lily. With the Hutchinson family’s capabilities, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to uncover Lily’s true identity. Even if she hides her background, her medical skills alone have made some people wary.” 

Shaun seemed to recall something and then said, Are you saying that the Hutchinson family’s planning to make a move against the Four Great Families

Η 

just them,Loid replied, finishing his cigarette and lighting another. He paused for a moment and contemplated. “Do you remember the mass poisoning case involving tea thousand people?“” 

Of course, I remember!Shaun’s face twisted with anger at the mention of the case. That was the most vicious and brutal case I had ever encountered in my career. Ten thousand people across 20 villages, poisoned overnight, their limbs severed and boiled in highpressure cookers” 

Shaus could still vividly recall the horrific scene. The ground was littered with remains, not a single intact body among the dead

Even now, they hadn’t found the perpetrators. This case had left a deep scar on him, and he was determined to catch the culprits to see what kind of monsters could commit such atrocities

Of the ten thousand people, five thousand had their bodies left intact. But when it came to processing the bodies, those five thousand simply went missing,Loid said, his voice chillingly calm

Yes, and there’s still no trace of them to this day.Shaun nodded

Then, his head snapped up. Are you saying that the mastermind behind that massacre is connected to Madam Hutchinson’s death? And this same person is now targeting the Four Great Families

Does that mean the Hidden Families like the Albotts, the Quinns, the Reaves, and the McKees are actually being manipulated by this person? What’s their goal? If they’re the ones who took the five thousand bodies, what use could they possibly have for them?” 

Madan Hutchinson must have had something they desperately wanted,Loid speculated, turning his gaze upstairs. As for the Hidden Families, they’re being used as pawns by this mysterious figure.” 

He suddenly remembered something important. He quicldy extinguished his cigarette and issued a terse command, Send people to Driftwood Bay and secure Lily’s house at once. No one is to enter or leave.” 

Shaun’s features tightened with urgency. Alright, I’ll handle it right away.” 

Tell the Slayers to come back and have them head to Driftwood Bay Immediately. All members should make haste! With those orders, Loid turned and headed upstairs

Lily had just finished sorting through Belinda’s belongings. She was holding an old photograph, staring at it blankly 

It was the only photo of her and Belinda together. Belinda had never liked being photographed, and neither did she. This particular photo was taken by Poppy on Lily’s tenth birthday

She thought the photo looked quite nice and kept it

Just then, Loid entered the room. He went to the closet, retrieved Lily’s coat, and draped it over her shoulders. His voice was low and serious. We need to go to Driftwood Bay now.” 

Lily’s body tensed slightly, but she nodded. Okay.” 

As they drove to Driftwood Bay, Shaun was on his phone, constantly coordinating and mobilizing personnel

Lily leaned against the car window, her expression distant and cold. She was lost in thought
