What Separates Me and You

Chapter 128

Chapter 128 He Was So Arrogant

Then again, that person didn’t have a reason to do this to Robert. Who could it be?

No matter how much Robert racked his brain, he could never get to the bottom of the mystery. He propped his forehead against his palm in sheer frustration as he cycled through every possible person in his life who could bear to cause such harm to his daughter and her children.

Other than Lewis, the other man who harbored such motives could only be Lily’s husband, Derek Moss.

“What?” Lewis asked.

“Nothing.”

Josephine’s gaze was trained on Lewis’ face. His expression was a mask of complete calmness as opposed to Robert’s obvious melancholy.

It was as if Lewis was just an outsider in this scenario.

Then again, that man didn’t have a relationship with Lily to begin with. Both of them weren’t related to each other by blood, after all. Judging from Lewis’ personality, he wasn’t the type to feel sorrow for Lily even if she truly died.

Josephine’s eyes went dull as she thought about Lewis’ emotionless facade. Someone like him might not be saddened by anyone’s death in life.

When Nancy lost control of her car and crashed into a tree, Lewis didn’t even bother to visit her. He was extremely cold to his own father, Robert, as well.

If Josephine were to die one day, would Lewis treat her the same way he had treated Nancy as well-by not sparing her a glance?

Silence enveloped the car, crafting an atmosphere in which even the most delicate sound, like the drop of a pin, could be discerned by all. Josephine and Lewis occasionally caught the soft, nearly imperceptible sighs emanating from Robert, who occupied the rear seat.

That meant he must have known that Lily was truly dead. Otherwise, he would never sigh so

much.

Two hours later, the trio returned to Alvarez Manor.

Everyone had gathered in the mansion, and that included Seth, Daphne, and the rest. At that time, a serious expression was already present on his face. Clearly, he must have thought of something.

Given the current state of affairs, even if he were to make the correct guess, there was nothing he could do to change the situation.
