Just as they were still arguing, Hiram Southgate and David Townsend showed up.
Roselyn Mercer instantly fled; she couldn't afford to be exposed.
Cynthia Morgan dared to go downstairs to open the door only after she left.
Eleanor Quinn was about to knock on her door.
"Cynthia, Hiram Southgate is here, looking for you. Go on and entertain him. Your dad is not home, and I have to go out too. I won't disturb you."
She laughed meaningfully.
Cynthia Morgan knew she misunderstood, but she didn't want to explain too much.
Because she was thinking about how to explain to Hiram Southgate that what happened to Vivian Morgan wasn't her doing.
She only used a curse, but if she hadn't, she would be the one dead. It was for her own survival.
Since he entered, Hiram Southgate kept a stern face, and the Morgan Family servants were all scared of him.
"Cynthia Morgan, why are you dawdling? Get down here!"
Cynthia was timid; though she dared to kill Vivian Morgan, she was still afraid of men.
