Chương 1581: The Estate

They paused just long enough to see her shake her head, "I am not- It's not-"

She was having trouble finding the right words and their cumbersome gazes were not helping.

Lady Yuki took a deep breath to gather her thoughts before looking at Aunty Vei.

"I am looking for someone, aunty. This person might know something about what happened at the estate."

All the anger in the room was quickly replaced by uncertainty with sprinkles of hesitation as they exchanged knowing glances with one another.

Aunty Vei caught them looking at each other and threw them a harsh glare as a warning to keep their mouths shut.

She ushered Lady Yuki to a nearby chair and sat down across from her while the others sat on the counter behind her out of her sight.

Aunty Vei's voice was as soft as fresh snow when she spoke to her.

"Little Yui, are you still looking into that matter?" she asked with a heavy heart.
