Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 470 The Sound Of Chains. 

The corridor was dimly lit. With the help of the flashlight, they could vaguely see the tightly-shut doors along the way.

Nico led Gwendolyn down the corridor while Karl, the butler, followed closely behind them.

The first door they opened showed a study.

They flipped the switch, and the lights in the room turned on.

Nico waved at the soldiers standing outside the metal door, gesturing for them to enter. Seeing this, they jogged in and acted as if they were rummaging through the room to look for the missing crystal earrings.

As they did that, Nico led Gwendolyn to another room.

Karl took in a deep breath anxiously and continued following after them.

The door was opened, and it showed a vacant bedroom. The room was decorated with rosewood furniture, looking minimalistic but exquisite at the same time.

“This used to be Old Mr. Abraham’s room. Ever since he passed away, Mrs, Newton would always say she’d see him in this room and couldn’t fall asleep. We left this room vacant later on, but Mr. Craig would tell our housekeepers to clean it every day,” Karl explained.

Nico nodded in response. The two soldiers who were checking the previous room walked in and began carefully searching the room.

As they exited the room, Nico locked his gaze on the door opposite them.

He could vaguely hear the sound of chains rattling coming from inside.

Nico turned back and glanced at Gwendolyn, who was also looking at him,

The pair exchanged solemn gazes.

An ill premonition suddenly brewed in their hearts.

Nico walked over, about to turn the knob, when Karl suddenly stood before him to stop him from opening the door.
