Susan’s questioning brought a sudden silence to the scene.

Everyone turned to look at her.

James began instinctively. “How can you say such a thing? It was an accident! Keera didn’t know there would be a fire!”

Charles also nodded. “Yeah, how can you blame Keera?”

Peter was also stunned, and he tugged at Susan. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Yet Susan pushed Peter away with tears streaming down like rain. “Don’t you all think the same? Or is what I said incorrect? If Mary had forgiven Ellis sooner, and they were living at the Olsen residence, how could such a thing happen?”

She wiped her tears. “Peter, you always tell me how great and admirable Ellis is. You should be the one who respects him the most! But what about now? It’s because of her that Ellis and Mary died in the fire!

“You are all grieving and in pain here; surely you must blame her, too, right? You’re just too afraid to say it or to resent her. I am merely voicing what you all are thinking!”

Susan looked angrily toward Keira. “Why, during the fire, was your entire family away, including the nanny? Why was Mary at home alone?”

Keira looked at her coldly. “What do you mean by that?”

After scheming against Peter and instigating a rift between him and Keira, was Fox now trying to use Ellis to divide Keira from the rest of her brothers?

Susan indignantly said, “I didn’t want to think too much either, but now that Ellis, the head of the Olsen family, is gone, a new heir must be chosen. You are the daughter of our third uncle, while the rest of us are just cousins. Your father had already designated Ellis as his heir before, so you didn’t stand a chance, but what about now? Aren’t you the most likely to inherit everything in the family?”

Keira didn’t speak but looked toward her brothers, “Do you all think this way, too?”
