Chapter 919

The corridor was dimly lit, with the faint glow of Lionel’s flashlight revealing the closed doors along the way.

Lionel led Sheena forward, with the butler trailing behind.

Opening the first door revealed a study, its lights still operational.

Lionel waved to the two soldiers waiting outside the iron door, who promptly rushed in, pretending to search for the missing crystal earrings.

Without delay, Lionel led Sheena to the next room, with the nervous butler following closely.

As the door swung open again, it revealed an empty bedroom furnished with intricately carved mahogany furniture. Everything was simple yet elegant and impeccably clean.

The butler explained, “This used to be Mr. Wesley Nicholls‘ room. Since his passing, Madam Nicholls has often claimed to see him here, so the room has remained vacant. Mr. Romello has the servants clean it daily.”

Lionel nodded, pretending to inspect the study as the soldiers did, before carefully searching the bedroom.

Exiting the bedroom, Lionel’s gaze shifted to the room across the hall, where faint sounds of rattling chains could be heard.
