Chapter 86

Herman had given the whole house a once–over, but couldn’t find any useful leads

He paused hesitantly in front of the last closed door on the second floor.

It was a room that even Seraphina hadn’t been in She looked relaxed, leaning against the hallway wall, smiling at Herman, Mr Herman, the incident happened downstairs Fidelia never came upstairs, so this room is definitely unrelated”

Hearing this, Herman turned to look at Seraphina, Ms Bennett, would you mind if we took a peek?

Seraphina shrugged. Td like to as well, but I can’t open the door.”

“Ms Bennett, since you live here, aren’t you curious about this locked room?”

“Even if I’m curious, there’s nothing I can do. After all, it’s not my house” Seraphina laughed and added, “But it’s not hard to guess what’s in there, considering the previous lady of the house is deceased‘

Hearing this, Herman lingered his gaze on her face, “Ms. Bennett, what do you know about the late Mrs. Lawson?”

“I returned home only in April, what do you think I could know?” Seraphina retorted

“In such a short time, Ms. Bennett, your relationship with Mr. Lawson has become quite intimate, how impressive”

Seraphina considered for a moment, then asked. “Mr. Herman, the case seems pretty clear cut. What are you still doubtful about?

Herman stood tall, his gaze fixed on Seraphina. Im just a bit puzzled, why did Fidelia choose to fight you with a knife for so long when she had a gun?”

At this, Seraphina furrowed her brows in thought, “That is indeed a question… Unfortunately, you shot Fidelia dead, so we may never know some answers we should have known.”
