I returned was during his birthday, and I only stayed for two days! Grandpa passed away yesterday.
They actually accused me of poisoning him. When and why would I poison him?”
“All the clues indicate that this is a trap. You know that you’re innocent. Since this is a trap, there’s no
need for a reason. Moreover, it is easy to find a reason if they want to pin the blame on you!”

grandpa’s death was not an accident, who’s the real murderer?!”
“The real murderer is likely the person who blames you.” Alexander held her hands tightly. and said, “I’ll
help you find this person!”

Lily had stopped crying. She took some tissues and wiped her tears dry. Her expression was
surprisingly calm.
“I can do this,” she muttered firmly.
He raised his eyebrows and supported her, “I never doubted it!”
Lilt opened the door and got out of the car. She did not fear the troubles she was about to face. She
wanted to clear her name and find out the perpetrator if her grandfather was really murdered!
