Chapter 397

The moment they divorced, Cecilia seemed to have completely changed, speaking so angrily to Gladys and claiming their relationship was over. Alston found it hard to believe that Cecilia would do such a thing, ruining her own image in front of Gladys. Alston wasn’t stupid; he knew Cecilia wouldn’t say these things.

"Gladys, who told you these things?" Alston asked. Was it Marian?

The question made Gladys tremble in Alston's arms like a startled bird. "I can't say, or I'll be fed to the wolves," she whispered.

Alston’s mind raced. So last night, Gladys wasn’t unconscious? She knew who had taken her away. Her tone was familiar, meaning she knew the person well. Among the people at the manor last night were Caleb and Cliff, who were with him, and another person Gladys didn’t know at all. Erin and Jarek had alibis. The remaining possibilities were Cecilia, Marian, and Brian.
