1001 to Romello? lot and Lionel exchanged puzzled glances, both feeling perplexed.
Elliot stood up, grabbed his military-style jacket from the coat rack, and swiftly put it on.
Let’s go take a look.” As they reached the lobby of the National Investigation Bureau, they encountered Logan escorting Nathaniel inside.
Logan immediately bowed respectfully to Elliot and said, “Mr. Jenkins, Mr. Nathaniel said the evidence is significant and urgent, so | brought him in.” Elliot did not say much, simply returning to his office with an order, “Nathaniel, cwith me.” Nathaniel remained silent, obediently following Elliot's lead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce inside the office, Nathaniel placed an envelope on Elliot's desk.
Elliot eyed the envelope suspiciously and asked, “What's this?” “We were cleaning up Madam Nicholls’s room and discovered this. It seems to be her suicide note.” Although Nathaniel was listed under Vanda’s nin the family tree, he never referred to her as his mother, and she never acknowledged him as her son.
In fact, he addressed her as Madam Nicholls, just like the other servants at home.
Elliot and Lionel frowned when they heard Nathaniel’s explanation.
Vanda had been injected with a mind-modifying substance before Romello seized power, rendering her thoughts uncontrollable.
How did she leave behind a suicide note? Despite his doubts, Elliot reached for the envelope and opened it carefully.
After reading the letter’s contents, his expression turned even more stern and cold.
Lionel inquired, “What does Madam Nicholls’s letter say?” Instead of answering immediately, Elliot looked up, his gaze fixed on Nathaniel’s calm demeanor.
“This letter is dated the day before her incident, and it claims she was tired of this hypocritical world and intended to end her own life.” “Suicide?” Lionel could not believe it. “She was already imprisoned by Romello, finding it difficult to move around. How could she have accessed poison to commit suicide? It’s absurd.” Without confirming or denying, Elliot kept his eyes on Nathaniel.
here exactly did you find this letter? was about to respond when Elliot tapped the desk as a reminder, adding, “I need the most ed account.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlrigh Nathaniel nodded and replied. “Because of Madam Nicholls’s passing, Gabrielle has been assisting Marius in handling her affairs. | was also helping out. Last night, around 8 p.m., | went up to Madam Nicholls’s room and found this letter tucked inside the pillow. Thinking it was significant, | brought it to you early this morning.” Elliot listened attentively, pondering momentarily before asking, “Nathaniel, what are your thoughts on this matter?” He sighed. “My relationship with Madam Nicholls wasn’t good, as you probably know. My inclusion in the Nicholls family’s ancestry upset her, triggering her mental illness. After she lost Phoebe, she bec increasingly depressed.
He paused briefly, presenting a starkly different perspective from before.
“Actually, | had concealed something earlier. She had clinical depression, and before Romello seized power, she attempted self-harm multiple times. | suspect Romello didn’t inject her with drugs because of her depression. Instead, he locked her up at times out of fear for her well-being. He wouldn't have killed her.
Even Lionel, who had been standing by silently, was taken aback.
Elliot's expression turned serious as he cautioned, “Nathaniel, you didn’t mention this when you returned to the country and visited Phoebe with Nana.” “True. That was because | wasn’t sure about the specifics at that time, so | didn’t mention Madam Nicholls’s depression. However, after finding this suicide note, | felt it was necessary to disclose the whole truth.
However, I've only done what was expected ofby bringing the letter to the National Investigation Bureau. It's not my place to decide how you handle it, so I'll take my leave for now.”
