a nodded timidly." was cleaning the staircase railing that day. I saw Mr. Barron enter your bedroom with my own eyes. Then, I went somewhere else. I didn't see what happened after that, but I heard Mr. Barron arguing with a woman. After that, Mr. Barron fell down the stairs. Now that I think about it, that woman sounded very young. I don't know if it was Ms. Sharp, but I did hear him arguing with a woman"

"Mr. Hackett, did you hear that? It's all true!" Ernest burst into tears. He could not help but cry when he thought of the fear and helplessness Barron must have felt when he was pushed down the stairs.

Hackett's expression became darker and darker. He stared at the maid called Laila and questioned, "Are you sure you heard Grandpa arguing with a woman? Do you remember what the argument was about!"

Laila began to recall the scene that day. After wiping the staircase railing, she had gone to wipe the vase. Although she didn't see who Barron was arguing with, she heard an argument.

"I vaguely heard Mr. Barron say something about letting Mr. Hackett know her true colors. Oh right, I also heard Mr. Barron say that he would never let that woman marry into the James family."

Hackett was even more confused when he heard these keywords. His grandfather had always liked Valèria. How was it possible that he said those words to Valeria?

Moreover, his grandfather really wanted him to remarry Valeria After that, his grandfather hid the child because he felt that there was no hope of Valeria and Hackett remarrying, so he wanted to take back the James family's bloodline. Hackett frowned. "Are you sure the woman's voice you heard was Valeria's?"

Laila shook her head, looking lost. "I can't be sure, Mr. Hackett. To be honest, I'm not too familiar with Ms. Sharp. I don't remember her voice either. I only know that Mr. Barron quarreled with a woman that day before he fell down the stairs When I found Mr. Barron, Ms. Sharp was beside him. That's all

Laila told Hackett all the useful information she could think of

Hackett only had one question now. Why didn't Laila volunteer this information at that time? He couldn't help but suspect that Laila had colluded with Ernest

"Answer whatever I ask you."

"Okay"

Hackett looked like he was interrogating a suspect. "Let me ask you, why didn't you say anything back then? Now, you're here as a witness. Don't you think it's too late? Grandpa has already been cremated." Laila was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

However, Ernest had a strong reaction. "Mr. Hackett, are you suspecting that I colluded with her and told her to make up stories? Mr. Hacken! In all honesty, I didn't! This is the truth, nothing more!"

"Ernest, don't be agitated. I know you don't mean any harm. I'm just a little curious why she didn't tell us earlier. It would have been easier for me to investigate back then."
