Chapter 83

Seraphina took in his words, didn’t ask any more questions, and just sat quietly for a long time.

Back in the day, Wilbur had been the main suspect in the case and he was the one who ended up serving time However, Wilbur passed away due to illness just six months into his prison sentence.
