Chapter 2563
“I hope so too, Mr. Taylor.” Nollace put down the cup and stood up. He slowly fastened the buttons on his shirt and
turned around.
Lucius watched and clenched his fists tightly as Nollace slowly disappeared from his vision.
The butler breathed a sigh of relief, but a hint of fear lingered in his heart. “Sir, what do we do now?”
Lucius stopped beside him and ordered, “This is your own business. You figure out how to settle it. I’ll get rid of you
if you can’t settle it.”
The butler’s face turned pale with fear.
Edison was standing in front of the car while Nollace came out of the Taylor manor. He opened the door for him,
and they got into the car. Edison then started the engine and drove away.

While they were on their way back, Edison looked at the rear mirror and said, “Mr. Knowles, your visit will definitely
arouse Mr. Taylor’s vigilance. If it’s really related to him, he’ll surely erase everything that can raise our suspicion.”
Nollace placed his hand on his forehead and leaned on the window. “Motivation–wise, Cecelia is the only one who
benefited from Clover’s death, especially since her reputation is at risk right now.”
Edison was stunned. “Are you saying that he’ll choose to take someone’s life just to restore Cecelia’s reputation?”
“Don’t forget that Lucius is someone who values interests more than anything else. If his daughter admits that she
has joined forces with Clover and caused Daisie to have a miscarriage, Cecelia and the entire Taylors‘ reputation
will be greatly affected in the aristocratic circle.
“Once Clover is dead, Cecelia just needs to divert the attention to a dead person. A dead person won’t be able to
defend themselves, so the public will never know the truth.”
Edison frowned. “But I thought Mr. Colton had already exposed their call records?”
Nollace chuckled. “Everything in this world, including the truth, can be forged.”

Understanding soon dawned upon Edison. Given the Taylors‘ power and status, even a call record would not be able
to do anything if they wanted to divert the public’s attention to something else.
Once everyone lost their interest in this matter, the Taylors could even make fake evidence. With their strong
connections, they just needed to hire some ghostwriters to write something on the Internet, and they would be able
to twist the truth easily.
Nollace squinted and said, “But I do notice something interesting.”
“What is it?” asked Edison.
Something flitted across Nollace’s eyes as he said, “When I mentioned Bart, the butler seemed a bit nervous.”
He would never let any evidence slip past his eyes. The reason he had purposely mentioned Bart was to observe
their reaction.

Edison was stunned. “His butler?”
Nollace sat up straight and said, “It’s time we look into the Taylors‘ butler.”

Meanwhile, at the film college…
Freyja came to Professor Merlin’s office. She knocked on the door and went inside after getting his permission.
Professor Merlin put down his cup and raised his head. “It’s you. What’s the matter?”
She walked up to the desk and sat down. “Professor, I heard from Mr. Lancell that you’ve studied criminal
psychology before, right?”
Professor Merlin was stunned for a moment before chuckling. “Yeah, I did study that before when ↑ was young. But
why would you ask?”
Freyja’s eyes glowed up, and she said, “I’m sure you saw the news the other day about a woman who was poisoned
to death in prison, right?”
“You told me that this matter has something to do with the prince, right?”
She nodded and replied honestly, “My best friend is the prince’s wife. She’s pregnant. I’m worried that it might
affect her, so I want to do something to help her.
