268 Found the Note

In the car, Taylor saw that Mrs. Olsen’s face was set and her eyes were fiercely staring at him. He smiled and said, “Shirley, I know you’re sad and angry, but we must show up for Keira’s final journey. Please stop frowning, okay?”

He reached out, smoothed her furrowed brows and directed her gaze elsewhere.

He quietly sighed when he noticed her hands were clenched tightly into fists.

He knew that Mrs. Olsen was still resisting him, still

angry…

It was fine as long as it wasn’t evident on the surface.

Soon, the Olsen family car arrived at the Horton residence and parked in the parking lot. Taylor then

assisted Mrs. Olsen out of the car and into a

wheelchair, placing her in it afterward.

Taylor wheeled Mrs. Olsen toward the direction of the

memorial hall.

Along the way, those who saw them greeted and

offered Mrs. Olsen words of condolence.

Taylor would silently sigh. “Shirley is heartbroken, without any strength…”

The others immediately said, “Mrs. Olsen, Mrs. Horton surely wouldn’t have wanted to see you hurting yourself like this. Please try to come to peace with it…”

No one suspected Taylor of doing anything to her.

Because the whole of Oceanion knew that Taylor was a model husband and thoroughly devoted.

He had maintained this persona for twenty-two years and four months, never arousing anyone’s suspicion!

Mrs. Olsen observed the people around her; showing just a hint of anger would lead them to comfort her…

Taylor wheeled her swiftly to the memorial hall.

Her gaze initially fell upon the place where the memorial was being held, and she saw Horton family servants attaching Keira’s black-and-white portrait.

Someone explained, “Mr. Horton had been refusing to accept Mrs. Horton’s death, so he wouldn’t agree to the display of the portrait. Today, with the burial scheduled, he finally relented. Sigh! Mr. Horton is also

a man of deep feelings…”

Taylor crouched beside Mrs. Olsen. Noticing her gaze fixed on the portrait, he smiled and said, “Shirley, are you thinking that Sam is about to give himself away at the sight of this photo?”

Mrs. Olsen’s eyes turned to him.

Taylor then said indifferently, “He won’t come today because you sent him a message yesterday, telling him you would show up and asking him not to.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Olsen was stunned.

Her phone had been closely monitored; how could she have possibly sent a message?

So, this was another act of Taylor’s!

He had killed Keira yet here he was, preventing Sam from coming here… All of this filled her with rage, anger, and a longing to tear his flesh, to drink his blood!!

Just then, a commotion arose at the entrance.

Mrs. Olsen looked up to see Lewis, who hadn’t been seen here in the last three days, standing outside the door.
