Keira paused slightly upon hearing these words.

Lewis said, "You've already had an answer in mind, haven't you? It's just that you're not sure yet. You went to see Vera today to force out that answer, right?"

Keira couldn't help but sigh when she heard this. "How can you be so smart? I haven't said anything yet, and you've guessed it all!"

Lewis said, "Actually, it's not hard to guess. That person must have a significant connection with the Martin family. There are only a few people who could know old Mr. Martin's password."

Keira nodded, and she lowered her gaze with a hint of wistfulness.

She and Lewis went downstairs, and just as they reached the dining table, they saw Charles eating breakfast. Catching sight of her, Charles immediately waved and said, "Keera, Uncle Olsen is fine now, and I have to go to school. Don't worry about him. I just went to see Uncle Olsen, and the doctor said he's sleeping soundly!"

Keira nodded.

She exchanged glances with Lewis, and they both sat down opposite Charles.

A servant promptly served breakfast to the two of them. Keira cut a piece of beef and said candidly, "Dad is okay now, thanks to Vera."

Upon hearing that, Charles was taken aback. "What do you mean?"

Keira explained, "We put some pressure on her yesterday, and she told us the truth. It was as if she provided us with the information willingly."

Lewis immediately interjected, "She was speaking out of ignorance, and being locked up in that place, she must have been somewhat panicked at first... But in the end, we do have to thank her. Be nice to her next time you see her."

Keira nodded, "Yeah, I know."

Charles said, "Be nice? She's a bad person. Keera, don't listen to Mr. Horton. You have to be tough when it's necessary! I think Vera is definitely the type who's afraid to die. You should interrogate her thoroughly and make her spill all her secrets!"

Having said that, Charles stood up and wiped the corner of his mouth. "I'm leaving now. I have class today, and Erin is waiting for me..."
