Ian saw how the man seemed to be trying to shake his head and he released his hand slightly so the man could breathe before tightening it again and the man stuttered, "I don't know! I really don't know milord please believe me. I am acquitted with the man but I didn't kill him."
Ian could pick up the tone that the man was telling the truth that he didn't know who had hired him either, "Still lying aren't you? He is yours now," Ian said before dropping Charades toward Edward. "If you need evidence to take him Edward, you could maybe find a letter hidden in his room maybe you could find who he works for to kill my gardener."
Edward pulled his brows and his gaze clashed of with Ian regardless he was assigned to finish the work and with a heavy heart he searched for the envelope from Charades' room. There he found how Charades was told to kill John as he was the gardener of Ian's castle in reward for money.
