Chapter 1521 The Truth Back Then

The mere thought of such a possibility deepened the grim look on his face.

Meanwhile, a glint of murderous intent flashed across the depths of his eyes.

After giving it some thought, Albert figured that it was better to directly address the root of the problem rather than removing the clues that might be discovered.

That evening, the housekeeper came up the stairs to deliver Avery’s medicine on schedule.

Not long after Avery drank it, he fell asleep.
