The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 501
Nico listened attentively, thinking that Cedrick’s analysis sounded valid.
He asked “Cedrick, if he genuinely wants the Newton Residence, would you assist him?”
A grim look flitted past Cedrick’s eyes. He remained silent, neither confirming his assistance nor explicitly refusing it.
Having been with Cedrick for quite some time, Nico understood what he meant and refrained from asking further.

Nico meticulously interrogated every housekeeper and bodyguard in the Newton residence.
However, the investigation that lasted half a day yielded no substantial results.
Caylie’s autopsy results were also out, revealing that she had taken an unknown drug.

Shaking his head, the forensic examiner replied, “We didn’t find any undissolved residues in Mrs. Newton’s body, so we can’t identify it. We only inferred that she took an unknown substance because we found traces of her being poisoned. However, I think that it isn’t a legal substance obtained from overseas. Regarding when she consumed it, I can’t give a specific time because I don’t know what substance she took. Some drugs have an incubation period, making it entirely plausible for the victim to die only a few days later.”
Nico fell into contemplative silence.

Lost in thought, Nico returned to Cedrick’s office and reported the forensic findings to him.
