Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 570

Before Tarquin even arrived, he'd already gotten the gist from Lowell, nodding politely in acknowledgment.

"Any progress on finding out what happened?"

"So far, nothing definitive. We're pretty sure your son's poisoning has something to do with that maid, but she's dead now. That leads us to a dead end."

Tarquin frowned, "Any leads on the maid's death?"

Roland shook his head, "Looks like suicide at first glance, but it's too early to jump to conclusions. We need to dig a bit deeper."

Tarquin just hummed, not asking anything further.

Roland then said, "We've wrapped up the evidence collection here and have someone guarding the scene. Unless there's anything else, we'll be on our way. We'll keep you updated on any breakthroughs."

Tarquin nodded, "Yeah, please keep this under wraps."

"Understood, you've got it."

With that, Roland signaled his team to leave, leaving the Bradford family in a state of panic.

"Just like that? What about him holding us here against our will?"

Roland replied, "Didn't Mr. Bradford just say the front door is open, and you're free to leave if you wish?"

"He..."
