Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 The Perfect Sister-in-law Material

The people in the room came out downstairs and Cecelia found that the snake was really gone from where she hung it.

"Madam Nelson, that snake was hanging in the corner of the hall. I kept it as evidence for you to check. Somehow, it's gone now." Cecelia explained.

"But how was it gone? Who would take it away?" Madam Nelson asked.

Cecelia took a look at the servants around and they were all shaking their heads and saying they didn't see anyone there.

Cynthia looked over at the Villa and said, "Badly, that corner has no cameras, a dead end. We won't know who took it away."

"It's obvious. That person dared to steal that snake during the daytime for only one reason. He or she is guilty and fears Madam Nelson to investigate that case. Therefore, he who stole the snake must be who sent it here!"

That was why Cecelia orchestrated it that way, hanging the snake up there in the corner that cameras didn't cover so that the murderer could steal it away.

It was daytime and the man must be too afraid to let Madam Nelson investigate the case so he stole the evidence, which was why he took risks to do the stealing.

And that was the trap Cecelia wanted that guy to get into.

It was all going according to her plan, and then she could trace that murderer by it.

"You're right! Miss Linsey, what a clever girl you are!"

Cynthia's eyes shimmered brightly as she found Cecelia not only smart but beautiful and treat Andres well. She was such a perfect Sister-in-law material!

Madam Nelson also credited Cecelia's assertation and asked, "What are we gonna do to spot that murderer?"

"Madam Nelson, you can go back now. Then, gather all Nelsons at the front lobby and I'll prove to you how the true murderer is!"

"Great!"

Madam Nelson agreed, and Cynthia got excited expecting how Cecelia, the female Sherlock Holmes, to grab the tail of that murderer.

Her expectation went high!

As the matriarch, Madam Nelson gathered every family member of the Nelsons at the main lobby of the Nelson Mansion with all servants standing outside the gate in lines.

Except for Maria Albert and Lydia Charton who got injured, and Remington who couldn't move, nearly every member was here.

As Cecelia walked into the lobby, she learned how complicated the family network was seeing all the members. Even Samuel Nelson, Remington's father, showed up.

She was told that Master Samuel was running the Nelson International Corp overseas and he barely lived in the mansion during the years.

Cecelia swept her eyes around and received all the attention, which was when Madam Nelson asked, "Cecelia, honey, this is everybody. How are you gonna spot that murderer?"

"Madam Nelson, I hung the snake up in the corner of the hall where no cameras cover, so if the snake was stolen away, we couldn't know who did it.

"But if the murderer thinks he can get away with it, he or she will be so naive! I smeared with some special powder the rope where I hung up the snake, and anyone who took it off must have some on his or her hands."

"Flip your palms up and let me check them. I'll give you the murderer!"

Cecelia sounded very certain, and Ronald in the crowd was staring at her, trying to hide his smirk.

Madam Nelson followed and gave her order, "Everyone, flip your palms up and let Miss Linsey check!"

They had to reach out their hands because only doing this could help them get off the suspicion.

Cecelia began to check on them one by one from inside to outside the gate, with no exception.

When she came back, Madam Nelson asked, "What's going on? Did you spot the murderer?"
