My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily and Loid)

Chapter 257

The house had been untouched for a long time, and a thin layer of dust had settled over everything.

Lily stood in the room, taking in the familiar furnishings. Her eyes stung with a hint of sadness. After a moment, she steadied her emotions and found a box hidden underneath a statue of Launina.

There was a key underneath the box. She used it to open the box and took out what was inside. It was a Bloodstone Emerald. Lily didn’t know much about it, but she knew Belinda died because of it.

Lily’s eyes narrowed as she scrutinized it. What exactly was this thing?

Belinda was in her 70s and didn’t have many years to live. Why did they choose to kill her now and yet leave the Bloodstone Emerald behind?

The people who killed Belinda were different from the ones currently in Driftwood Bay.

After Belinda’s death, Lily used every possible channel to investigate those responsible, but it was as if they had never existed as not a trace could be found.
