Lesson 451: Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

The room went quiet.

Jessica looked at Shen Yue in a strange way, not understanding why he had become so polite. Clifford too seemed a little off balance and stammered, "What does the master want to say?"

Shen Yue calmly stated, "I was present when Carly died!"

Clifford grunted his acknowledgment, his face showing puzzlement. "Yes, I know."

"So, I saw many details that weren't gleaned from the description."

Shen Yue reflected, "When Carly died from poisoning, Vina appeared shocked and frightened, unlike one who had anticipated this."

"Is that so?"

Clifford seemed to be recalling as well, but in the end shook his head. "I didn't notice, all I thought was that Vina wanted to frame Jessica."

"I feel Vina also didn't expect Carly to die." Shen Yue took out his old-fashioned cell phone at some point and flipped it open to check something.

Clifford didn't understand what Shen Yue was up to and seemed unconvinced by Shen Yue's conclusion.
