Chapter 417 The Door That Closed

Back then, even John couldn’t send a reliable housekeeper, and Victor hadn’t wanted to alarm Madam either.

Victor’s mind drifted to the memory of her, curled up in a ball.

He gave Tessa another long look.

Meanwhile, back in Rivermount, the Reed family was unraveling fast after Susan’s arrest.

In what felt like a single night, the entire family collapsed.

Everyone in the Reed family spent the day on edge, anxiety etched into every face.

Just before midnight, Lilian arrived at the Keene family estate. She had come to see Ethan.

He was the only person she could think of–her last hope. No one else could help the Reeds now.

The Reed family… was finished.

And if Susan really got locked away this time, what would happen to her? She didn’t have much time left.

Right now, Lilian was in a full–blown panic.
