"So you're saying, if Verity has an accomplice, it's definitely not someone from the Bradford family?" "Absolutely not! No way!" "Did you find any suspicious characters?" "None. But if you're looking for leads, start with Verity. You're sure to find something!" Tarquin was silent.

He had just learned today that Verity's illegitimate son was living in Karl Town, and he might be connected to the mysterious figure.

Now he found out that Verity was also linked to his parents' death.

Could she be involved with this mysterious person? "Did you know Verity has an illegitimate son living out there?" Gideon scoffed.

"Yeah, I knew. She's been keeping him on the side... No intention of coming back to claim inheritance. And that brat... Mediocre at best. He's never caught my eye. Totally beneath my notice!" "And his father?" "Clueless. I did look into it but got nowhere. The kid was born abroad through a surrogate, father unknown." Gideon finished speaking and gasped for air, struggling to breathe.

"Hurry up and arrange a private jet for me... I want to leave now! If you don't getout of here, you won't get the information I've found!" Tarquin frowned, "Someone will take you to the airport later." With that, he got up and left.

Gideon's confidant waited until Tarquin was downstairs, then excitedly approached Gideon, saying, "Didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Master Tarquin didn't even haggle, just agreed straight away!" Gideon snorted and panted, "All these years, he's been investigating the murder, but... he's got nothing! As long as I can provide a lead, he wouldn't reject my offer! He's always been haunted by his parents' death! You think, after pinning it on the second child, why didn't I confront her? I was saving this for today... I was keeping an ace up my sleeve!" "With this money, you can live out your days in comfort abroad." Gideon was in high spirits, looking disdainful, "So what if they tricked me, or knew I placed Elizabeth's ashes... in a haunted spot? They still obediently pay me, escortout of the country! Thinking of avenging the Inkster family, huh, the Inkster family deserved what they got! They were meant to be trampled on by me! They're the ones humiliated, they're the ones who died a miserable death, and I, Gideon... am still living well! I can still... still enjoy my golden years... ha ha ha..." He gasped for breath, laughing maniacally! Downstairs, Lowell saw Tarquin and promptly opened the car door for him, asking, "Tarquin, are we really letting Gideon flee the country?" Tarquin got into the car, "Yeah."

Lowell quickly took the driver's seat, but before starting the car, he turned to Tarquin, Prowning,

"Isn't sending him abroad letting him off too easy? After all the atrocities he's committed just letting him enjoy his retirement overseas?" He's disgraced! He's lost everything! He's been severely beaten by Evan, left disabled for life! But compared to his crimes, it's nowhere near enough!

He should be tormented every day, hurt every day, wishing for death But unable to die, that would be true justice! Tarquin leaned back in his seat, his brow furrowed, coldly replying, "The police are already on to him. Here, his end would be jail. But abroad, it'll be hell!" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
