Chapter 471
During the engagement party a few days ago, Richard had gotten someone to check all the guests who entered the hotel. On the surface, there was indeed no problem.
But there was one thing that could not be explained.
That day, Charlie Kelley, Thalia Kelley, and Eric Kelley disappeared for quite a while.
Richard what they did during that time.
He asked someone to investigate, but they found nothing. Even Charlie and Thalia said that they could not remember what had happened at that time. They said that they had lost a portion of their memories.
Richard felt that this was not possible.
Moreover, when he thought about it carefully, there was something fishy about it.
One of the inexplicable doubts was that before the news of the disappearance of Charlie and Thalia at the hotel came, Hank was furious that they did not come out to welcome him.
It was also because of this that Richard went to the front hall to shut Hank up.
After that, even Tiffany disappeared.
He really wouldn’t believe that this was a coincidence.
Richard asked, “Tell me, who instigated you to wreak havoc at the engagement party?”
“Are you suspecting that I’m deliberately messing things up?” Hank was stunned for a few seconds. When he regained his senses, he was so angry that his eyes widened. He said angrily. “Since I’ve already agreed to your marriage, I can’t go back on my word at the last minute! You’re saying this because you want to shirk responsibility and then push all the responsibility onto me, right?”
Hank was furious. He flicked his sleeves and left. “Alright, I won’t care about your future matters!”
The car engine started, and Hank really left.
Judging from his reaction, it seemed like he really did not know, Sidney and Garry remained quiet the whole time. After Hank left, the two of them whispered, “Richard, why are you even suspecting Hank?”
Although Hank had always been cold–blooded and unreasonable, the incident at the engagement party really seemed like a coincidence.
If someone really wanted to murder someone, they felt that the most suspicious party should be the Kelley family.
Richard looked at them with disdain. His thin lips parted slightly as he slowly spat out two words. “Shut up.”
Garry did not dare to speak anymore. However, Sidney sighed and advised, “Richard, although I don’t believe that Tiffany would do such a thing, Hank is indeed not a suspect. Also… Grelle has been waiting for you outside for the entire day. She…
Before he could finish speaking, he was coldly interrupted by Richard. “So?”
Richard got up and went straight to the second floor.
From afar, his unreasonable voice could be heard. “From this moment on, I don’t want to see anyone who’s an eyesore in this house and on this mountain.”
His subordinates immediately nodded. “Yes!”

That night, the Kelley family was unexpectedly calm.
The people who had come to throw trash and rocks from time to time had all disappeared.
Tiffany woke up and looked at the empty bedroom and window She lifted the blanket and got up to wash up.
After she changed her clothes and went downstairs, Eric pounced on her. “Tiffany, I’m going to class. See you tonight!”
“See you tonight.” Tiffany rubbed his head.
Later that day, Charlie came out of the room in a black suit. He did not go to the office today. Instead, he was going to attend the Harper family’s funeral.
Many years ago, the Kelley and Harper families had a very good relationship. It was also at that time that the engagement was set.
Although the two families had a lot of disputes later, Charlie had always been a nostalgic person. Even for Ryan Harper’s friendship with him back then, he had to attend Ryan’s funeral.
Tiffany said, “Dad, I’ll go with you.”
“Okay.” Charlie did not refuse.
After a casual breakfast at home, they got into the car and headed towards the cemetery.
What happened to the Harper family a few days ago made many people sigh.
It was said that the reason why Ryan passed away that day was because he fought with a vicious robber and was stabbed several times.
Of course, these were only rumors. In fact, no one bothered to investigate the real reason.
When Tiffany saw Kenneth in the cemetery, he sat in a secluded place in a daze. His figure was a little thin, and even his eye sockets were covered in a faint layer of green.
At that time, he was not present and did not have the time to save his father. Tiffany felt that this should be his greatest regret and guilt.
Tiffany slowly walked forward. She sat beside him.
Kenneth looked up and saw that it was Tiffany. He forced a smile and said, “Why are you here?”
“I came to see you,” Tiffany said calmly and asked, “Have you found out who the person behind this is?”
Although it was inappropriate to ask such a question at a time like this, only hatred could make Kenneth pull himself together.
Kenneth took a deep breath and his eyes were slightly red. “We’ve only found out half of it. We haven’t found out who the person behind the scenes is yet.”
When such a tragedy happened at the Harper family that night, all the signals were blocked and all the surveillance cameras were hacked and temporarily turned off. Therefore, there was no evidence left.
According to Romeo and Alexia, the assassins had their faces covered when they barged in, so their identities were unknown.
Only one of them pulled off the cloth on his face. There was an obvious scar on the man’s chin to his lips.
Kenneth asked an artist to draw a portrait based on the description provided by Alexia.
When this picture was drawn, Odin cried and apologized, “Mr. Harper, it’s all fault!”
Under his questioning, Odin finally said that when he went to investigate the origins of the Treasure Box, he had asked many people around and finally the information from a place.
He gave the other party a million dollars to keep his mouth shut. The other party agreed.
Unexpectedly, this was taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
The person who provided Odin with clues about the Treasure Box was the person who led a group of men to break into the Harper family and commit murder before snatching the Treasure Box away.
Kenneth lowered his head and smiled bitterly. “How is this Odin’s fault? It’s clearly my fault.”
It was he who did not listen to Romeo’s advice and insisted on secretly investigating the whereabouts of the Treasure Box. Hence, it brought about a fatal disaster for his family.
Kenneth didn’t hide anything and told Tiffany everything.
Tiffany frowned when she heard that. “You said that the man in the lead has a scar on his chin? Then does he have a very fierce face? Is there a mole on his left eyebrow?”
“How do you know?” Kenneth was stunned. All the characteristics mentioned by Tiffany matched that man’s appearance.
