Charlie's Request

Isabella lowered her eyes. "I heard that Liliana was very kind and amiable. She never put on airs. She liked to read and write, and she was aloof from worldly affairs... It must be rare for her to get into a quarrel with a man. I believe that there was a lot of pressure at that time."

"Yes..."

Charlie shook his head, lost in his memories, "I was not in good health. Ever since Harvey passed away due to illness, Liliana took care of the Wilson family. She had two young children and needed to deal with the company's affairs by herself... One can become a little sensitive and neurotic under huge pressure. Angelina once said that when Liliana was in a bad mood, she would go to the cemetery alone and talk to Harvey. I think that day, she went out alone to visit Harvey..."

Isabella's eyes darkened. "And then she never came back?"

"Yes."

Charlie said in pain, "So Joseph believed that Michael partly caused Liliana's death. He hated Michael and his family, including your two cousins."
