Cedrick’s gaze darkened, staying silent as he patiently waited for Team Seven to finish their search and report back to him.

“Mr. Jenson, we didn’t find anything worth mentioning in Mr. Craig’s room.”

“Nothing in the attic too, Mr. Jenson.”

“Mr. Jenson…”

Cedrick quietly listened to all the team members report their findings. His gaze discreetly darted toward the housekeepers, bodyguards, and the butler gathered in the garden.

Karl’s expression was the calmest when he listened to the reports by Team Seven, as though it was within his expectation.

Cedrick narrowed his cold gaze and ordered tentatively, “Search the backyard and garden again. Don’t miss out even on the smallest detail.”

Karl inconspicuously lowered his head and clenched his fists. Thinking about the backyard, he instinctively tightened his balls of fists.

Cedrick keenly caught Karl’s out-of-the-ordinary reaction. Saying nothing, the former merely led Nico and Neville to conduct another search of the garden and backyard.

Karl was composed when the team searched the garden.

Cedrick immediately headed toward the backyard and ordered, “Everyone thoroughly search the backyard!”

Karl’s fists tightened at Cedrick’s order, and he silently followed the latter to the backyard.

Nico discovered some pieces of shattered glass underneath a flower pot in the backyard.

Putting on rubber gloves, he picked up the glass bits and brought them to Cedrick.

“Check this out, Cedrick.”

Before long, others started finding glass pieces at a few more inconspicuous thickets.

Karl, who stood quietly by the wall, swallowed the knot in his throat nervously as he recalled ordering the bodyguards to smash the glass tubes swiftly. He didn’t notice where the glass pieces fell and forgot to bury them from sight, for he was in a hurry.

Cedrick gathered all the glass bits and felt the similarity in their texture.
