Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 1728: Who holds it now?

All these theories—and not a single one could be discarded. Even so, everything remained circumstantial until Jonathan confessed. With his knowledge and involvement of the Zorken Family, Jonathan could become a key piece in the case.
