Chapter 77 Shocking Conjecture

Maria were talking about the fire last night.

Seeing them come back, Renee pretended to be concerned and asked, “Remington, how is Andres doing? Was he injured?”

“Fortunately, he had a narrow escape.”

“I’m glad to hear that! The fire scared us!” Renee said.

Maria kept silent, thinking it would be great if the little ba stard had been burned to death.

Cecelia stared at their faces and could tell they were not lying.

If someone had set fire to the house, he or he must have deliberately made Gail suffer from diarrhea and gotten rid of Maelynn in advance, Otherwise, there would not have been any chance of doing such a thing.
