    Selma Payne’s POV:


    “… This is what happened, Your Highness. I killed La and then killed myself. And the murderer behind the scene is my biological son.”


    When Julie finished her story, everyone was silent for a long time.


    Admittedly, many of the possibilities 1 had thought of before coincided with the facts. For example, someone manipted Julie tomit murder, or Julie might be the mother of an illegitimate child, or Julie’s soul splitting was rted to the murder.


    But when everything was put together, the story pieced together was shocking. Who would have thought that the truth would turn out this way?


    Mother, son, and friends were entangled in a conspiracy, and the murderer seemed to be a child under the age of twelve.


    What was even more ironic was that the murderer was already dead. We couldn’t hold a dead person ountable.


    I could hear heavy breathing in the observation room next to me. it was Master Kevin, a widower who had personally heard the entire process of his lover’s death.


    Julie and Jack Evaria were both dead. The direct and indirect murderers were no longer alive. From whom should he seek revenge for La? It was impossible to let it all go just like that!


    I believed Julie’s statement. She had no reason to lie. However, I still doubted the truth of the matter. Was what Julie had experienced real? Even Jack Evaria, was the death he thought he wanted the truth?


    Sir Evaria told me in his letter that Jack Evaria had never left his resting ce because of his weak body. This was not the truth from twenty years ago.


    Did Sir Evaria lie to me?


    There was no need for that because he and his family no longer have the capital to deceive me. Once I find out the truth, he knew that everything would be taken back with interest. 1 thought this old fox in politics understood the obvious pros and cons.


    So, between Jack Evaria and the Evaria Family, who had deceived whom?


    The Evaria Family guarded this descendant of the royal family like a treasure. They did not need to let their trump card personally carry out a dangerous assassination. If anything happened to Jack Evaria, the gains would notpensate for the losses.


    However, Jack Evaria also had his trump card. If he could quietly erase the memories of everyone who hade into contact with Julie, then it would not be difficult to control his guards.


    So, was Jack Evaria the murderer? Was he the one who deceived everyone and used the excuse that the Evaria Family had ordered the assassination of La to show off his might?


    Or did the Evaria Family know everything and used Jack Evaria to facilitate everything? Was it the real culprit hiding in the shadows?


    I unknowingly fell into deep thought. Sisley, who had been silent all this while, suddenly asked, “So you’ve been with my father all these years? Is that why you became the ghost legend of the Evaria Family?”


    Julie nodded. “Yes, I think I did stay by Jack’s side until he died. However, 1 didn’t know the side effects of splitting my soul back then. The iplete me was unconscious. 1 had no impression of what had happened to Jack all these years. Forget about protecting him, 1 was just a useless ghost…”


    As Julie spoke, she became depressed. However, 1 realized that her words revealed a key piece of information.


    “You’ve been staying in the Evaria Family for many years? Did no one chase you away?” 1 asked again.


    “I don’t remember, Your Highness. Maybe I did, but I can’t remember anything. I can only remember the iplete memories of the soul left in the Golden Bell Pack. Perhaps the part that inherited the physical body is more stable than the wandering ghost.”


    Julie imed she remembered nothing, but I believed this was evidence.


    Proof that the Evaria Family knew of her existence and even used her.


    There was nock of registered werewolf grandmasters who colluded with the Evaria Family, and Jack was the focus of attention. The Evaria Family would ensure his safety by eliminating any unknown ghosts wandering around Jack.


    However, they didn’t do that. Instead, they let Julie drift for many years, and even became a legend in the family.


    First, they recognized Julie. Second, they knew why Julie’s soul was with Jack. Third, they were confident they could control Julie and even use her to do something. For example, they could threaten a disobedient trump card.


    The Evaria Family used Julie to threaten Jack, saying they knew everything that had happened so that Jack would listen to them.


    They knew what was going on and who had stolen the g ofmand during the assassination of La. They were angry about this but also held power, quietly showing who had the initiative.


    Julie’s story happened so long ago that even the moon was sad and quietly hid in the clouds to cry.


    Clouds suddenly piled up in the sky, which was unexpected in the weather forecast. Then, light rain gradually fell..
