章 205: Kicked out.

In the days that followed the Verdemonts dominated the news, with the affair and murder being splashed on the front page of every newspaper. 

It was the leading news on social media, television and radios, milked thoroughly by prosecutors, police and politicians looking to make a statement. It even made international news just like the cuckoo case had done.

The Verdemonts were faced with baseless accusations of covering up for Brandon and partaking his murder. The scandal reached fever pitch and even the light of faith distanced itself from them.

The Minister of the faith and the head of the church personally called for a press conference and denied having any knowledge about some of their family member's extra curricular activities. To prove this, Emilia was relieved of all her duties in the church and the Verdemont's attendance to mass was suspended. The minister also denied having any personal connections to the family.
