Cyrus didnât attend because he was busy taking care of Noelle.
At half past seven, Lucinda, Nathan, Sonny, and Luisa were impeccably dressed as they graced the event.
âMr.
Payne, itâs been a few days.
You and your wife display such enduring love.
Itâs truly admirable,â Mekhi expressed politely with a smile.
Nathanâs countenance turned dark.
âWere it not for Lucinda, I might have tied up your brother and taken him away.
â
âAre you serious? You should let go of your grudge against him.
It has been over a year.
Heâs acknowledged his mistake and wonât act recklessly again.

Mekhi displayed a kinder smile and a

This was just the perfect moment that he had been waiting for to carry out his investigation.
With this in mind, he walked out of the room.
He walked slowly in the corridor of the villa.
The butler passed by with an item in hand and Kyson lightly touched it.
âOh no!â
Reacting swiftly, Kyson prevented the expensive glass bottle the butler was holding from falling.
Then he quickly dipped his right hand into the butlerâs trouser pocket.
âAre you all right?â
âThank you, Mr.
Shaw.
Iâm fine.

The butler expressed gratitude and hurriedly left with the glass bottle.
Watching the butler walk away, Kyson gripped the key tightly.
Over the past few days, he had diligently observed the butlerâs routines, noting the times he ascended to the top floor, and how he put the key in his trouser pockets.
So it was quite easy for him to come up with a way to get it.
Seizing the opportune moment when everyoneâs attention was fixed on the garden, Kyson strolled casually towards the top floor, feigning indifference.
Unlocking the door with precision, he silently swung it open and seamlessly glided into the top floor corridor.
Prior to his return to the Shawsâ house, Lucinda had shared with him the presumed location of Kaitlinâs room.
