“This is a conspiracy!” Lily’s hand clenched into a fist. How vicious!
It was not just as simple as framing. She wanted to know who tampered with the candle.
“I must find the real murderer who killed my grandfather!”
“Then what?” Justin asked calmly.
“Make him pay the price!”
“If they dared to do this, they would’ve already cleaned all the evidence,” Standing up, Justin took two s

He was pointing in the direction of the corridor, “You know, the Lodge family has never had the habit of i
nstalling security cameras. Even if they did it outside grandpa’s room, as long as they weren’t caught re
d–handed, there wouldn’t be any evidence.”
Looking in the direction he pointed, Lily frowned slightly.
Justin was right. This was a window of opportunity for the culprit, and they took advantage of it. The mo
st critical fact was that the culprit got the jump on them, and they were caught off guard as a result. The

“I remember something called trace science. I believe that there will be evidence as long as something
has been committed. I’ll find my grandfather’s real murderer!”
Justin retracted his hand and turned to face her, “Although there’s no conclusive evidence at the mome

From the bottom of her heart, Lily did not want this to be the case. Still, considering they were
on the opposite side of the boat from Henry, they must not underestimate his capabilities.
Henry got expelled from the Lodge family at an early age. Even if she did not care for him, he was still

If Justin continued holding on to power, a rift would form between the new group of people who backed
him and the elders who supported Henry. As a result, the Lodge household would be in disarray, and th
