His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 628

She personally handed the candle to Justin, not thinking that any problems would occur.

"After you brought the candle back, did you light it up yourself, or did you hand it over to the housekeeper?"

Taking a deep look at her as if guessing her thoughts, Justin's lips moved a little, and he faintly said two words: "Uncle Roger."

Lily was silent.

Roger did not have to explain himself. He was deeply devoted to Wilfred and had spent many years serving by his side. Nobody in the Lodge family would ever question Roger's allegiance.

In other words, the doubts about the whole situation fell on the three of them. Since Lily and Justin could not argue, Henry and Jonathan saw this as an opportunity to attack them. At that moment, neither their guilt nor their innocence could be established with certainty.

"This is a conspiracy!" Lily's hand clenched into a fist. How vicious!

It was not just as simple as framing. She wanted to know who tampered with the candle.

"I must find the real murderer who killed my grandfather!"

"Then what?" Justin asked calmly.

“Make him pay the price!"

"If they dared to do this, they would’ve already cleaned all the evidence," Standing up, Justin took two steps forward and pointed out the door.

However…

From the bottom of her heart, Lily did not want this to be the case. Still, considering they were on the opposite side of the boat from Henry, they must not underestimate his capabilities.

Henry got expelled from the Lodge family at an early age. Even if she did not care for him, he was still her uncle and a Lodge. Was he the one behind this murder, just to gain power over the family?

Lily did not want to believe it.

After a pause, she asked in a very soft voice, "Are you afraid of chaos in the Lodge family? Was that why you took the initiative to hand over your power so quickly?"

If Justin continued holding on to power, a rift would form between the new group of people who backed him and the elders who supported Henry. As a result, the Lodge household would be in disarray, and the damage at that point would be immeasurable.
