Chapter 511 The Farewell Letter

It’s related to Craig!

Cedrick and Nico exchanged a glance, both feeling puzzled.

The former stood up, picked up his military jacket from the coat rack, and put it on neatly. “Let’s go and have a look.”

Just as the two of them reached the lobby of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, they coincidentally bumped into Neville, who was bringing Charles in.

Neville swiftly bowed before Cedrick. “Mr. Jenson, Mr. Charles has informed me about the discovery of significant and crucial evidence. Hence, I have brought him here.”

Cedrick, without uttering a word, turned on his heel and made his way back to his office. “Come with me, Charles, he commanded.

Charles wordlessly trailed behind Cedrick, matching his brisk pace as they made their way to the office.

Once inside the office, Charles placed an envelope on Cedrick’s desk.

Cedrick glanced at the envelope. “What’s this?”

“I found it by chance while helping to clean Mrs. Newton’s room last night. It seems to be her farewell letter.”

Although Charles was listed under Caylie’s name in the family tree, he never referred to her as “Mom” or even “Mother.” Instead, he always addressed her as “Mrs. Newton,” much like the housekeepers and butlers did.

His words prompted both Cedrick and Nico, who was standing nearby, to furrow their brows simultaneously.

Caylie had been injected with a neurochemical agent before Craig gained control over the family. Her thoughts had been out of her control ever since. How could she have left behind a farewell letter?

Despite his doubts, Cedrick reached out and took the envelope.

He carefully opened it and scanned its contents.
