The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 180

Elara’s mom, Jacob’s fiancée?

While she never had a wedding with Jacob, he had always acknowledged her as his only wife!

What If she was still alive?

Noelle, are you talking about the nonsense Tandy was spouting after he had the vodka?”

“He wasn’t drunk; he was faking it. I remember Thorpe once mentioned that their family has a genetic tolerance for alcohol.

With a sheepish grin plastered on his face, Thorpe slowly turned around.

When did all this happen? He couldn’t even remember! How on Earth did Wise Fool remember such a trivial thing?

Xavier bellowed with a mix of anger and protectiveness, “What are you staring at? Keep eyeing Noella like that and I’ll gouge your eyes out!”

Grinding his teeth, Thorpe hadn’t expected that it would be his own offhand remark that would betray his brother. He was completely numb to it all.

“No, I was just marveling at how Ms. Schnabel’s head, so pretty and small, could remember so much stuff!”

Noella, chin held high, retorted, “Based on what Tandy said, it seems they used the same tricks on my grandma and Elara’s mom. Since my grandma is alive but has lost some memories, I have reason to suspect Elara’s mom might be in the same boat.”

Palmer’s steely gaze fell on Hollis.

With an innocently disarming smile and a nonchalant shrug, Hollis met Palmer’s lethal stare, conveying a helpless air. “I’ve told you all I know; the rest is beyond me, and Tandy knows even less.”

Noella turned to Xavier and tossed her magnetic earrings to him. “Inside is a copy of a file. Videos and photos left by my grandma are all in there–the password is her birthday.”

Xavier, in a fluster, caught the earrings Noella casually threw. He was terrified of breaking something so precious!

This was everything Harriet had left behind!
