Chapter 799 INTERVIEW (V) ”WERE you there at the former Magnolia Manor when the explosion happened” Luo Yan asked Catherine.

The woman seemed surprised by the question. “E-explosion”

”Yes. Wasnt it the reason why the fire happened in the first place Because a series of explosion occurred and burned the manor down” he said, matter-of-factly.

”Y-yes, t-that was indeed the case.”

”Was no one caught for that crime thats why your father thought that one of his remaining children was the mastermind” he asked straightforwardly.

”I say that Father was simply getting on in years,” George said. “Theres no way any of his children could have done something like that. No, I take that back. Edward is definitely capable.”

”G-George—”

”What Its true! Although Charles is insufferable, he doesnt have the guts or the wits to plan something so diabolical. Edward, on the other hand. Well, lets just say if its something that could hinder his political aspirations, hes capable of anything.”

”George, please…” Catherine said in an almost pleading tone.

George only reached for his wifes hand and held it. A little too tight in Luo Yans opinion. As evidence of how Catherine winced. But her husband only smiled as if he enjoyed it. What a creep. 

”You dont have to protect your older brother Cathy. Hes not worthy. Im sure that guy would not hesitate to throw you under the bus if he thought it could save himself.”

Luo Yan doubted that the words of this guy bore that much truth. But then again, hes not stupid enough to ignore it. The other might embellish his words, but theres probably still some semblance of truth in it.

”Are you saying Mr. Edward was already in politics back then” he asked.

”He was trying to be, right Cathy” George said turning to his wife for confirmation.

Catherine looked like he was struggling whether to speak of this matter or not. But with her husbandspersuasion, she still relented.

”Eddie, he- he was trying to get into parliament.”

”And you know how politics cost money,” George added. “So, he had every motive to cause that explosion just so he could stop Fathers plan in cutting off his source of income. The same could be said in this current situation.”

[And I could also say the same thing to you.] – Luo Yan said in his mind. 

”Lets go back to my earlier question,” he said, looking at Catherine. “Were you in the former Magnolia Manor during the incident 20 years ago”

Catherine seemed to be startled that the question returned back to that again. But he still tried her best to answer.

”I- I was there.”

”So was Mr. Edward, I presume” Luo Yan asked.

Catherine nodded. “He was there with his t-then w-wife.”

Luo Yan raised one of his brows. “Is Mr. Edward divorced with this wife”

”Shes dead. Died three years ago,” George answered. “Interestingly enough, it was right before our last visit with Father. Young Harry was so bereft, he couldnt go to the Americas because of that. Of course, dear Eddie couldnt miss that opportunity to earn some brownie points. So, even with his wifes death, he still went and visited Father.”

Luo Yan took note of that part about Edwards wife dying before the supposed visit to William Harcourt three years ago.

”Then, Miss Catherine, have you noticed anything suspicious during that incident” he asked.

Catherine was silent for a moment, she looked like he was thinking hard to remember if she indeed saw something suspicious 20 years ago. Then, as if a lightbulb turned on inside her head, her face lightened up as if she remembered something.

”Y-yes, but if I dont know if its suspicious or not.”

”Let me be the judge of that,” Luo Yan said, he looked at the other with an encouraging gaze.

”I- I saw Saunders going out of my fathers study. I- I found it quite curious.”

Luo Yans brows furrowed. Saunders again Whats up with this chauffeur “You never questioned him about it”

”I- I didnt. After that explosion, it- it just completely disappeared from my mind. I-Im sorry. I—”

Catherine looked like she was about to hyperventilate. But her husband squeezed her hand, making the other wince. It seemed that that woke her up, calming her down in some way.

”Detective, I would very much like for you to not upset my wife any further,” George admonished. “Shes already very distraught because of fathers passing. What does it matter if he saw Saunders It didnt mean anything. Even if it did, Cathy wouldnt think of that possibility. Shes simply not capable.”

Luo Yan was this close to lifting the paper weight on the desk and throwing it at Georges annoying face. This guy just indirectly told him that his wife was stupid and not capable of intelligent thoughts. And the said wife just accepted that and even nodded as if agreeing. 

Seriously, he didnt know which one he should be more annoyed. He had to remind himself that the two were simply NPCs following a programmed script.

He shook his head and just went back to the more important matter – Saunders.

”From what Ive been told, the only one that Mr. Harcourt brought with him to the Americas was the former butler. Then, how come Saunders was still working as a chauffeur here”

”Your guess is as good as mine, detective,” George said with a shrug. Then, he stood up. “Now, if youll excuse us, my wife needs to rest.”

Luo Yan nodded. He doubted if could gleam any more information from the two. George supported Catherine and the two walked out of the room. Luo Yan looked down at his notes and circled the nameSaunders.

He tapped his fingers on the desk while staring the name. Now, what was your connection to all these, Saunders No, the more pressing question should be where the other was at this moment.

If Saunders truly ended up suddenly disappearing amidst all these, then, theres no doubt that, in one way of another, he was connected to what happened 20 years ago.-
