Chapter 558

The servant told Louise everything that happened that day.
The Adkins family’s servants were very perceptive. They knew that since Ava was dead, Louise would have the final say in this family from now on. It would do good for them to try their best to please Louise. After hearing the servant’s words, Louise narrowed her eyes nervously. Shannon had never entered her room before. Could it be that she discovered something? It was too dangerous!
She thought for a moment and asked, “Did she ask anything else?”
The servant shook her head. “No, I think she has been in a bad mood recently and wanted to smash things in your room to vent her anger!”
Louise pursed her lips. “Is that so?”
“She must still be hung up over the death of Second Miss. It’s been five years, but she still hasn’t gotten over it…Sigh…”
Louise sat on the bed, her entire body tense.
“Speaking of Second Miss, I just remembered something.”
Louise frowned at her. “What is it?”
“Back then, an anonymous letter was sent to Second Miss. A few days after that, Second Miss got into the incident. Something must be wrong with that letter!”
Louise’s eyes widened in shock. “A letter? Received before Ava died? Where is the letter now?”
The servant was stunned to see her reaction.
Louise explained, “It’s been a while. I must have been too agitated to hear about my sister.”
“I think that letter is still in Second Miss’s room. It was under her mattress when I went to clean up previously.”
A thought flashed across Louise’s mind.
The last time she went to Ava’s room, she saw Shannon sneakily placing something under the pillow. It must be that letter!
Louise hurriedly made her way to Ava’s room, only to realize the door was locked when she tried to turn the doorknob.
What were the contents of the letter? Why did Shannon have to go to my room after seeing it? What was she looking for?’ Louise panicked.
The next morning, she saw Shannon eating breakfast as if nothing had happened.
Shannon was definitely hiding something from her. It is not safe for her to stay in this house.
Louise thought momentarily and said to Marshall, “Dad, I want to move out for a while.”
Marshall asked curiously, “Why? You haven’t reconciled with Brian. Where are you going to move to?”
When Shannon heard Louise’s words, she seemed to straighten her back in attention.
Louise could not find a suitable reason. Seeing that, Marshall replied, “No, you can’t move out. The house is already so empty. You will stay at home will only allow you to move out if you reconcile with Brian and move in with him.”
His attitude was very firm, so Louise could only give up.
Louise became even more vigilant. She would lock the windows tightly when she went to work during the day, afraid that Shannon would climb in through the windows when she was gone.
Louise was also on high alert whenever she was home on the weekends.
Curiously, there was an obvious improvement in Shannon’s attitude towards her. After lunch that day, Shannon had cut up some fruits and brewed a cup of coffee. She brought it over to Louise in front of Marshall and said, “Come, Louise, have a cup of coffee with me!”
Marshall smiled in relief when he saw Shannon’s attitude change.
Louise accepted the coffee from Shannon with a calm expression. “Thank you, Auntie.”
“I heard from your father that this coffee was your mother’s favorite when she was still around. Try it. You might like it too.”
Louise smiled and sniffed it. “It smells good. I quite like it.”
She lowered her head and took a sip. A dark glint flashed across her eyes.
