Chapter 1569 Underground Palace
On the way back, both Davin and Juan were analyzing Desmondâs story and could not help but sigh. It turned out that Steven was not the scary monster they should be afraid of. Instead, it was the devious mastermind who had been using Steven all the while to realize his evil plan!
That man was truly horrifying!
Davin said, âWhat kind of grudge does this person have with Steven? How bad can it be that he would want to set Steven up in this manner?â
Juan found it strange as well. âDesmond claimed that it was internal family strife. But, why would a butler want to fight with his master? Unless he is not who he claims to be! Or perhaps, he had a prior grudge with Steven and decided to work as a butler for Steven with an ulterior motive.â
Davin thought about it and said, âYou have your points, but this is a private matter of the Maupay family. Steven should be the one to investigate! Our main concern right now is to convince Steven of the truth.â
âUncle Davin, we should inform Kyle about this, and let him tell Sally. Let Sally talk to her daddy. It doesnât matter if Steven believes it or not. Iâm sure he will check the story out either way. When he decides to investigate, we will hand Desmond over as a witness.â
Davin nodded. âSounds like a good idea. I will send Desmond to Steven myself.â
Once they got back to Seet Group, they told Kyle everything.
Kyle was also pretty shocked after hearing the story.
âAfter carrying out such atrocious deeds, how is it possible for Stevenâs butler to stay on by his side for so long without getting caught?â
âThatâs true. Either the butler is a very intelligent man, or Steven is too dumb?â said Juan.
Davin chipped in with his analysis. âI feel that Steven has been blinded by hatred and lost his mind. Despite witnessing it himself, he truly believes that the killer is your daddy. Thatâs why he did not ponder too much about it. All right. Letâs not worry about Stevenâs intelligence level. We should get the story to him as soon as possible and resolve the impending crisis for Seet Group. It will be too late once he has destroyed Imperial Garden.â
He turned to Kyle and added, âKyle, let Sally know about this quickly so that she can tell her daddy.â
Worry appeared on Kyleâs face. âI canât get Sally through her phone. Iâm not sure if Steven has locked her in the house.â
He couldnât contact Sally?
What should we do now?
The three men looked at one another before Davin said, âLooks like we have no choice but to go into the lionâs den personally to meet Steven.â
âThere is no guarantee that we will be able to see Steven if we go into the secret room. The last time I was there with Saul, we never saw anyone.â
Kyle agreed with Juan, âIt is indeed very dangerous to go into the secret room. The last time I went there with Saul, we nearly ended up in Stevenâs hands if it wasnât for Sally.â
Davinâs eyes lit up brightly. âIsnât it a good thing to get caught by Steven? Thatâs who we are trying to meet. If we get caught and see him, we can just tell him everything. Isnât it better?â
Both Kyle and Juan were speechless.
Whatever Davin had just said sounded logical.
âWell then. Since the two of you have gone in before, let me be the one to go this time. I will take Saul with me and also a few bodyguards. Iâm quite certain I will be able to meet Steven. By the way, Juan, you should send more men to guard Desmond so that he doesnât get away. He is our witness after all. Perhaps after I meet Steven, he will want to see Desmond immediately!â
âUncle Davin, you really plan to go? What if-â
âWhat if? Thatâs never going to happen. You guys must have faith in me. At the same time, I am also interested in the secret room. This is a good opportunity for me to take a good look at the whole place. For all we know, I can also build an underground palace. Then, all of you will be able to experience underground life. If I charge the right price, Iâm sure it will be a profitable business.â
âBut, Uncle Davinâ¦â Juan was still very worried.
