The Day I Kissed An Older Man

The servants Beatrice had summoned were those who frequently traversed the living room, so there was a chance they might have caught sight of what happened that evening.

Beatrice spoke politely, and they were unaware of the severity of the situation. It occurred to her that she should have questioned these servants earlier, particularly when she reviewed the surveillance footage and found no evidence of Thalia's crime. With no surveillance inside the kitchen, she did not have a surefire way of knowing what Thalia might have done to Lucas's drink.

"It's actually not a big deal. I'm just wondering if any of you happened to see what Miss Thalia did that evening. Lucas had a bit of an issue, so as his grandmother, I need to clarify things for him. Otherwise, misunderstandings might arise between him and Melody," Beatrice explained.

The servants exchanged glances with one another. Although they knew it was not their place to meddle in the household's affairs, they were well aware of Thalia's feelings for Lucas despite his indifferent demeanor.

They had even discussed it privately, speculating whether Melody leaving was due to a disagreement with Lucas. At that moment, it seemed their suspicions were confirmed.
