“Piper, I didn’t kill grandma. I’m not a bad person. How could I kill you?”
Emily gripped her arms tightly and her face was covered in sweat.
“Piper, I’m really not a bad person. Trust me!”
Piper finally calmed down. Looking at Emily, Piper wasn’t sure if she was a good person or not.
However, at that time, there were only Matriarch Jackson and Emily. There was no anyone else.
If it wasn’t for Emily, could it be that the wheelchair rolled off on its own?
“The sunlight is so strong here. Let’s find another place to talk.” Henry looked up.
Emily’s face turned red because of the blazing sun.
Emily looked at Piper with anxiety in her eyes and pleaded, “Trust me!”
Piper hesitated for a while before nodding.
Under the shade of the tree, Emily and Piper were sitting together.
Henry stood in the distance and did not participate in their discussion.
“I really didn’t harm my grandma. If you can’t trust me, then I can’t discuss it with you.”
Emily exhaled and stared at Piper with a sincere expression.
Piper had to believe in Emily before she could continue to talk about this matter with Emily.
Piper heaved a long sigh of relief, feeling a little helpless.
“Actually, I believe in you.”
In Piper’s opinion, Wendy would definitely not get married with Hunter.
Emily was the only one who was suitable for Hunter.
“I can tell that Matriarch Jackson likes you very much. As for Wendy, she …”
She paused for a moment, and then she couldn’t help but look around.
Henry was the only one around them. Although he was far away from them, Piper’s voice was very low for the sake of caution.
“Matriarch Jackson is actually a little afraid of Wendy. Wendy seems … to be very scary.”
“Why?” Could this matter have something to do with Wendy?
“Mrs. Jackson …”
“Call me Emily. I am no longer Hunter’s wife.” Emily said indifferently.
Piper bit her lower lip. It was only less than a month’s time. Everything had actually changed.
“Emily.” Piper called out before she told Emily what had happened that night.
“After you left, though Wendy’s subordinates retreated, she stayed in Matriarch Jackson’s room all night.”
“Later, I secretly went to see Matriarch Jackson, but I didn’t find anything. However, Wendy stayed there all the time, and I felt … very uneasy.”
Piper recalled that night, and still felt it was terrifying.
Although Wendy’s bodyguards did not stay there, her two maids were there.
It was as if Piper was being stared at all the time. Especially, those two maids were extremely terrifying.
“I originally planned to find Mr. Hunter the next morning.”
Matriarch Jackson and Hunter had a very good relationship. Piper knew that.
“But I don’t know why Wendy was kneeling in front of Matriarch Jackson and crying the next morning.”
“I originally wanted to hear what Wendy was saying to Matriarch Jackson, but there was no chance. Those two maids chased me away.”
“After that, Wendy left. Matriarch Jackson was normal as usual. I went to prepare some breakfast for her and help her get up.”
“When Matriarch Jackson ate breakfast, she was in a very good mood. It was completely different from the previous night.”
“Matriarch Jackson also said that everything had been settled. The truth would be revealed. She said that she can finally relax.”
“Did she say what she wanted to say to Patriarch?” This was what Emily cared about the most!
This was also her biggest doubt.
