Chapter 448 A Mother And Son's Heartfelt Words Before Treatment

Wesley didn't want to leave, but Charles tapped his fingers on the table. "Sheldon, escort Wesley out."

"Yes, Mr. Holden Senior." Sheldon stepped forward and firmly pulled Wesley to his feet. "Mr. Holden, you should get some rest first.

"I was already troubled, but after seeing that Mr. Marcus even suspects you and Mr. Holden Senior, it is only natural that I, as a butler, would be doubted as well. There is nothing for me to feel wronged about.

"Mr. Holden Senior is right. If we are innocent, then there is nothing to fear from Mr. Marcus' investigation. The real concern is what happens if he fails to uncover the truth."

Sheldon had already thought it through. "I will go find Mr. Marcus now and tell him everything I can remember. Mr. Wesley, will you come with me?"

Wesley stared blankly at Sheldon. His ability to adapt so quickly was surprising. He looked him in the eye, calm and unshaken, with no trace of guilt.

"Mr. Wesley, what we must do now is help Mr. Marcus. The sooner he finds out the truth, the better."

Wesley nodded and stood up. "Alright. Let's go."

The two left the room and immediately set out to find Marcus. After searching the guesthouse where he was resting, they found no sign of him.

Wesley frowned. "Where could he have gone in such a short time?"

"Call him."

Sheldon quickly took out his phone and dialed Marcus' number. The call went through, but the voice on the other end was Noah's.

"Hello, Sheldon. What's the matter?"

"Noah, where is Mr. Marcus?"

"He left with Ms. Walker. Her mentor has returned and took him to speak with Mrs. Holden."
