Once Marilyn regained feeling in her arms and legs, she left the study hastily and returned to her room.

After shutting the door behind her, she leaned against it while breathing heavily. Her heart sank at the thought of Harriet’s sudden death, but she soon composed herself.

She provoked me first. There’s nothing wrong with me talking back! Her death has nothing to do with me! Wait… The housekeepers of the Faulkner residence knew Grandma called me to her study, and they’ll undoubtedly discover that she’s dead when they go to the study later…

Her fingers paused.

Instead of making the call, she opened the door slightly, peeked outside, and saw the housekeeper bringing Genevieve to the study.

While the housekeeper went back downstairs, Genevieve knocked on the door. After waiting a few seconds, she pushed the door open and walked into the study.
