“But we have no leads at all.” Silas looked at him helplessly.

At this, Shane lowered his eyes and then plunged into deep thought as he deliberated where his grandfather could have kept the will.

However, after racking his brains for a long while, he was still left with no inkling.

The will can’t be at any of all those places, for Sean can definitely think of them if I can do so. And he might have even rummaged through them all! Therefore, the will must be someplace else!

“Have some tea.” At this time, Natalie came out of the kitchen with tea.

Jolting out of his thoughts, Shane lifted his eyes and ordered, “Go back first. I’ll try my best to think of a lead.”

“Okay.” Silas nodded.

Meanwhile, Natalie was bending down to pour the tea into the glass. “You’re already leaving, Mr. Campbell? But I’ve just made tea.”

“It’s okay, Ms. Smith. I’ve still got something to do, so I’ll get on with it first instead of intruding on you and Mr. Shane.” After saying that, Silas flashed her a meaningful smile before he spun around and left.

Noticing the suggestiveness in the final glance he threw her, Natalie couldn’t help but blush again.
