Chapter 414 He Swears a Solemn Oath

“Give me the second half of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes.”

Cecelia needed to retrieve what belonged to the Songo Group, and she firmly believed that the original manuscript must be in Alfred’s possession.

He had admitted it before, though he had used a replica to deceive her.

Alfred had already expected Cecelia’s condition. At that moment, he sighed deeply.

“Cecelia, I must tell you the truth. The original edition of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes is not in my possession. What you saw was just a replica and I only have a replica.”

“Do you think I’ll believe you?” Cecelia scoffed.

How cunning this old man was, didn’t she know?

“Believe it or not, I truly don’t have it. When you asked me last time, I deceived you.”

Alfred explained with great weight and depth.

Cecelia stared at him for a long while before speaking coldly, “Uncle Grandpa, I hope you’ll answer me carefully. Otherwise, considering your age, what can you do even if you had half of the secret manual? Do you want to take the secret manual with you into the coffin?”

“Sigh… I truly don’t have it, Cecelia! You’ve seen it yourself; I only have a replica. It was made by your great-grandmother while she was still alive. She created many replicas back then to confuse outsiders.

Over the decades, the Songo family has had many thieves, but what they managed to steal was all fake.

The real one was taken away by your great-grandmother. You should ask her!”

Cecelia kept her gaze firmly on the old man, who was sweating under her scrutiny. In order to prove the truth of his words, he didn’t hesitate to swear a solemn oath.

“Cecelia, if you don’t believe me, I can swear to the heavens. If what I said contains a single false word, let me be struck down by heaven and never find peace!”

For a person to swear such a solemn oath indicated that what he said might actually be true.

Could it be that the second half of The Collection of Fragrant Clothes wasn’t really in the Songo family?
