Chapter 271

The butler committed suicide? Alice refused to believe it, heading to the basement where the Windhams were gathered.

Ethan, standing at the entrance, looked at the hanging butler, his brow furrowed, but a sense of relief washed Over him. Suicide–all the blame would fall on the butler. Noah, seeing Alice arrive, blocked her view. Don’t look. You’ll have nightmares.” Alice’s face was stern.“The butler didn’t commit suicide.” Chloe wouldn’t let him; she’d bought him off. A greedy person like him wouldn’t kill himself.

Caleb said, “You mean he was murdered?”

“Impossible,” Ethan immediately refuted. “If it was murder, who did it? Chloe couldn’t do it; don’t try to frame her,”

“Brother, we need to call the police. Someone died. But what excuse should we use?” Ethan pondered.“Say the butler stole valuable items and embezzled money. Last night, he tried to steal from Alice’s room; we caught him, and he committed suicide.”
