Chapter 2320


    Nicole had humiliated Raine just a while ago, so there was no way Raine would let Nicole off the hook


    now.


    Nicole raised an eyebrow. “Guilty? Did you see me do it?”


    “Only Sean and you went upstairs just now, and now something has happened. Can you really me


    us for suspecting you?” Raine grew more convinced as she thought about it. At first, Raine just wanted


    to press Nicole’s buttons, but now she realized only Sean and Nicole had gone upstairs.


    Hearing Raine’s words, Karen immediately chimed in. “Now that you’ve mentioned it, there were


    indeed only you two who went upstairs.”


    Nicole moved her arms and said meaningfully, “Have you forgotten why I went upstairs?”


    Karen turned stiff. It was a spur-of-the-moment decision to provoke Nicole. If she had not done it,


    Nicole would have had no reason to go upstairs.


    “Maybe she hit your spot. If you hadn’t been burned, you might have other excuses to go upstairs,”


    Raine said indignantly, convinced that something was wrong with Nicole.


    “Alright, you’re saying I’m the culprit. But do you have her voice turned colder. “If you can’t provide


    evidence, I can sue vou


    for defamation.”


    “Why I-” Raine instantly went silent, her face pale. She retorted weakly, “We were just discussing. But


    you’re indeed the prime suspect.”


    Sean and Nicole were the only ones who left the dining table. However, Raine also knew that even if


    Nicole was the culprit, Nicole would not leave any evidence behind. So, there was no evidence now.


    “Enough arguing,” Mr. Riddle Sr.’s voice rang out, and everyone instantly stopped talking.


    After ncing at the crowd, Mr. Riddle Sr. said, “Let’s forget about calling the police. But this matter


    can’t be left unresolved. We must investigate thoroughly.”


    “How can we investigate?” Dexter frowned, thinking it was impossible for them to handle it on their


    own.


    “Everett, Preston, Steve, Er,” Mr. Riddle Sr. called out and instructed them, will be in charge and get


    to the bottom of this.”

    The four exchanged nces before reluctantly agreeing,” Okay.”


    “Well, that’s settled. Everyone can leave now.” Mr. Riddle Sr. held his head wearily.


    “Dad, get some rest. The kids will take care of this. All you have to worry about is your health,” Damien


    reassured. “We’ll take our leave now.”


    “We’re leaving too, Dad. You can wait for the news with peace of mind,” Dillion ensured.


    Dexter nodded at Daniel before bidding farewell to Mr. Riddle Sr. and leaving the Riddle manor.


    The living room quieted down. The butler brought a cup of tea and asked softly, “Sir, are you really not


    considering reporting this to the police?”


    Mr. Riddle Sr. had already chosen one from the four families to investigate separately. Additionally, he


    avoided Sean, who was under suspicion. However, it was unlikely that these four would work together


    effectively during the investigation. In truth, all of them had be suspects in Mr. Riddle Sr.’s eyes,


    and it was uncertain whether the truth would be revealed.


    Mr. Riddle Sr. took a sip of his tea, saying meaningfully,” Yes. After all, we have to wash your dirty linen


    at home.”


    It was clear that the thief who took the property deed was not present, but the mastermind could be


    among this group of people. Whether the situation was escted by involving the police or conducting


    a quiet investigation, the oue would be the same. The discovery of any information would depend


    solely on these four individuals. That was why Mr. Riddle Sr. decided to have people from the four


    families conduct their own investigations.


    “You’re going to great lengths, but…” The butler could not help but feel sorry for Mr. Riddle Sr. He felt


    that the old man’s heart must be hurting the most right now as all of the suspects were his sons.
