Chapter 705

After several minutes of the somber atmosphere in the living room, Noal broke the silence.

He calmly organized a plan, saying, “Howard, go to the dark web and see if we can find evidence exposing Nathaniel as a royal bastard and leave other matters to the legal team. I’ll instruct them to draft a plan quickly. Nana, follow the lawyers‘ instructions when the tcomes and present your case accordingly.”

Phoebe, who had been attentively listening, chimed in, “If his illegitimate status has remained hidden for so many years, it suggests that the Laubabwe royal family has tightly sealed off information and evidence. The dark web might not have what we need.”

Howard turned to her, asking, “Do you have any ideas?”

Phoebe nodded, saying, “Perhaps I can find the evidence!”

Romello had hoped she would return to the Nicholls residence, which could be an opportunity for her to assist Sheena in searching for evidence.

Even though their father had passed away, his study and bedroom still remained as Romello arranged for daily cleaning, preserving everything as it was. Perhaps she could find suseful information.

However, Howard was not too keen on the idea and expressed his concern, “You’ve just been acknowledged by the Nicholls family. Engaging in such risky activities, especially considering Nathaniel is your half–brother, even if illegitimate, is a matter involving the Nicholls family. If Romello finds out, he won’t let you off easily!”

Phoebe reassured him, “That won’t happen! Among the Nicholls, Romello treatsthe best. He felt indebted tofor the past. Even if he finds out, he won’t harm me. Don’t worry!”

Due to the tight three–day timeline, Phoebe acted swiftly.

That afternoon, she discussed her decision to return to the Nicholls residehce with Romello.

Romello was pleased that she embraced her new identity and was willing to settle into the Nicholls family.

In the evening, Howard helped her with her luggage and personally escorted Phoebe to the Nicholls

residence.

Their eldest brother and father had both passed away, while their third brother was engaged in foreign trade abroad and rarely cback.

Romello would also make occasional visits.

Phoebe learned from the butler that Romello had official business with the National Investigation. Bureau and might not return hto rest for a few nights.

Not wanting to miss the opportunity, Phoebe, guided by the butler, explored the entire mansion at night.

The butler warned her, “Ms. Phoebe, the sixth floor is off–limits. You absolutely cannot go up there at night. Apart from that, you’re free to go anywhere in the mansion during the day.”

Phoebe was puzzled and asked, “You just mentioned that the sixth floor is where my mom stays and where my dad’s study and bedroom were when he was alive. If that’s the case, why can’t I go up there at night?”

The butler, looking conflicted, could only lower his head and explained, “This is Mr. Romello’s order. You’ve just returned, and there’s much about the Nicholls family that you don’t understand. Mr. Romello will personally inform you in the future. For now, you just need to obey his orders.

Phoebe stared at him, staying quiet.

It sounded like there was more to the Nicholls family’s affairs than what Romello had previously told her, and it seemed more complex than what she currently knew.

The butler bowed slightly, making a courteous gesture as he continued, “This is your room. Have a good rest,”

“Okay,” Phoebe replied, closing the door, and sitting on the bed, lost in thought.

Why was it fine for her to visit the sixth floor during the day but not at night?

There was an air of secrecy about it, and the more restricted it was, the more her curiosity was piqued..

At 3 a.m., the entire mansion was unusually quiet, with everyone fast asleep.

Phoebe quietly opened her door, tiptoed from the fourth floor, and ascended the stairs to the top

The cold wind of the late winter night blew through the hallway, causing shivers and adding a touch. of eerie mystery to the already chilly sixth floor.
