Endless silence spread in the ward. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Maeve felt a little awkward. Yesterday, she said that she needed some time to think about it, but in the blink of an eye, she returned to this ward.

Coupled with the fact that she had just experienced a life-and-death crisis last night, she felt that it was too pretentious to have the thought of breaking up over such a small matter. She didn't want to be so pretentious, but... she couldn't control herself.

There was a knock on the door and then Archer pushed it open.

"Ms. Reese," Archer greeted Maeve politely.

Maeve nodded at him and saw him walking quickly to the sofa. He lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Mcdaniel, we have a lead."

"Hmm?" Byron said indifferently, "Speak."

Archer told him the results of his hard-earned investigation.

Maeve was deliberately lured to the Mcdaniel family's old residence. On the way, he was knocked unconscious and thrown into the sea. It was Henry's doing.

The bodyguard who had been secretly protecting Maeve was also plotted against by his accomplices.

However, this time, they only caught Henry's accomplice and let him escape.

That accomplice had been in cahoots with Henry for many years and knew a lot.

For example, if Maeve died, her studio and the money under her name would all be taken over by Henry, her only relative

It didn't matter if they couldn't find the jewelry.

Henry had done it very secretly. The person who hired the murderer was an accomplice. He had not been stained with any danger from the beginning to the end. Even if they investigated, no one could say that he was the murderer. Maeve's blood almost froze when she heard that. Her lips were as white as snow.

A sense of powerlessness that she had never felt before swept through her entire body. She slowly lay down and stared blankly at the ceiling.

She did not pay attention to what Archer said after that.
