Chapter 95

There was no way Talia would admit to being a murderer.

She yelled, "You darn wench! Who are you to point fingers at others? Roberta died in your arms! That makes you

the biggest suspect among us! Yet, you're trying to accuse us now?" Kayla had a resigned look on her face.

"Felicia, Roberta and | are not on bad terms. Why would | want to kill her? Even if you don't like me, you can't

falsely accuse me." She made it sound as though Felicia was calling her a murderer because she wanted to get

rid

of her.

Felicia had to admit that Kayla was exceptionally skilled when it cto feigning innocence and misleading

those around her.

She had no intention of arguing with Kayla and Talia, so she turned her gaze toward Roberta, who lay on the

bed..

The words Roberta said moments before her death rang in Felicia's head.

"Aunt Felicia, the weather is so lovely today.

"The day | met you happened to be my birthday as well. | prayed to the heavens, hoping that they'd save me.

You appeared at that very moment.

"I've betrayed you once, but that won't happen a second time. I've accomplished that now.

"Thank you for being the light in my life. | don't have the strength to continue fighting..."

Felicia closed her eyes for a bit. Then, she looked at Clive. "Grandpa, gather everyone. | will prove in front of

everyone the evil deeds these two murderers have committed!"

If it had been before, Clive would never agree to Felicia's request. After all, that meant exposing a scandalous

incident involving sof their family members to others.

However, a person's life was involved this time. Moreover, Roberta was killed by Clive's poison.

The culprit who stole Clive's poison had to have wicked intentions, and they needed to catch. that person!

Clive drew a long breath. In just a few seconds, he made his decision.

After hearing Felicia's words, Kayla and Talia exchanged a glance. Both of their eyes flashed. with shock and

unease.

Felicia claimed to have proof and she even wanted to show it in front of people. The two of them could not help

but wonder if she was really telling the truth.

Talia quickly said, "Grandpa, do you believe what that wench is saying? She obviously has a hidden agenda!

She's trying to break our family apart!"

"Grandpa, the reputation of the Walsh family and yours will be tainted if news of this incident gets out. We

should catch the murderer, of course. Still, we can't make a scene..." Kayla hinted, "Besides, Felicia is under

suspicion too. Yet, it looks like she's trying to lead the investigation now. Even if she found out who did this,

would others be convinced?" In other words, Kayla was implying that Felicia's actions were akin to the pot calling

the kettle black as she could also be the perpetrator.

Clive's expression darkened. He ignored Kayla and instructed his butler, Gerald Stinson, to inform Noah's family

and Jake to cover for a meeting. Gerald responded in acknowledgment and was about to leave when Clive

gave him another instruction. "Wait. Tell the Fullers to cover too." "Understood." Gerald hurried away to

carry out the tasks.

Kayla felt her heart sink. She subconsciously curled her fingers into a fist.

"What do | do if Felicia really has the proof? What would Mom and Dad think of me? Will I... get kicked out of the

Fuller residence?" she pondered. Talia was gripped by a sense of panic too.

Despite Roberta being an illegitimate child who was not welcomed in the Walsh family, she still shared the same

blood as the Walshes.

At Clive's command, they soon set up a simple wake room at home.

While the others were busy preparing, Kayla asked in a subdued voice, "Didn't you say the plan was foolproof?

How did it cto this?" "How am | supposed to know?"

The feelings of indignation in Talia rose. In all of the scenarios she had thought about, she had never once

considered an instance where Roberta would try to retaliate.

Not only did she possess the photos and videos of Roberta being sexually assaulted by men, but she also had

Roberta's mother, Eileen, confined in a sanatorium.

With the two trump cards Talia had, Roberta would not say no even if she asked her to kill herself.

Besides, the instruction she had given Roberta was simply to poison Felicia!
