Keira Olsen found herself married without even knowing it! What's more, her husband-out-of-the-blue turned out to be the richest person in town! As an illegitimate daughter, she's been clawing and scrambling her way up, struggling to survive since childhood. She never expected to wed someone so powerful. When everyone thought she'd be quickly divorced, her husband shocked everyone by a declaration."My dear wife, can we not divorce?"
Ellis saw Uncle Olsen's expression and couldn't help himself from asking, "Uncle, since Mrs. Olsen said she didn't want to see you, why don't you just go back? She's heartbroken now, and your presence here is not making things any better."
Uncle Olsen glared at him.
Ellis immediately realized that his comment might have been too harsh.
He coughed and then said, "You just mentioned something was amiss, so what is it that's not right?"
Uncle Olsen lowered his eyes. "Miss South has always been strong-willed. Her daughter has died, and the murderer hasn't been found. Would she ask me to leave? When she sent me the message, my first thought was that she would want me to avenge her daughter."
Jodie South was never a weak character.
Her health wasn't good, and she was fainting frequently, but a person's nature wouldn't change.
Ellis couldn't help but ask, "Then why don't you just barge in and ask her directly?"
