Chapter 1299

The dust on the lock wasn't evenly spread, a clear sign that someone had unlocked it recently.

Colby pulled out a key he had ready and said, "These locks are old masterpieces, designed with such ingenuity. Without a key, there's no way to get into the Costello family's ancestral hall." With that, he opened the grand doors to the hall.

Inside, the place was filled with memorial tablets of the Costello ancestors, and it looked a bit more spacious than the Russell family's hall.

Sophie, gazing at the tablets, realized she had never formally paid her respects to Colby's ancestors since they got married.

"Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Great-Grandma, Great-Grandpa, I've brought Sophie to see you," Colby said softly, holding Sophie's hand. Sophie squeezed his hand back and said to the tablets, "Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Great-Grandma, Great-Grandpa, Colby and I have come to see you. We hope you can bless us from above and help us find the culprit behind the tragedy that struck the great families soon.'

"We will," Colby reassured her, tightening his grip on her hand. "Let's start looking for the ledger."

"Okay."

Sophie had expected finding the ledger in the Costello family's hall to be tough, but to her surprise, it was hidden right under a column.

Looking at the box containing the ledger, she said, puzzled, "This wasn't as hard to find as I thought."
