Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 160

So, that was what happened.

Julien pursed his thin lips.

He knew that Harry Raines kidnapped Clarice, but he did not think that it was Brandon who forced him to do so.

It seemed like some things could not be investigated only in part but in their entirety. Otherwise, they were likely to be blinded by false appearances and lose sight of the truth.

When Julien thought of Brandon's hatred when he mentioned Harry, he found it absurd now.

What was even more ridiculous was that he believed Brandon's rhetoric that it was Harry who let down the Madden family.

At that thought, Julien looked at Sydney with guilt and shame in his eyes.

He was ashamed that he only listened to one side of the story and thought that her father was not a good man.

Sydney did not have time to pay attention to Julien. She bowed her head and clutched the necklace." That's why this necklace appeared in the Raines residence."

It must have been taken from Clarice's neck when her father kidnapped Clarice.

"Yes." The Old Madam nodded.

Sydney then asked, "How did Clarice die?"

She had a bold guess.

It was a guess that she was very reluctant to think about.

Under Sydney's gaze, the Old Madam slowly said," Your father threw her into the river and drowned her... in front of Brandon and his wife."

Boom!

Her guess came true.

Sydney's vision went dark as she felt the world spin.

She swayed and was about to fall.

Julien grabbed her shoulders and let her lean in his arms. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Sydney bit her lip and answered weakly.

The Old Madam looked at her with great concern. "Sit down quickly."

Julien helped Sydney to the chair.

Sydney trembled. "Dad... How could he have done something so stupid?"

He drowned a child.

It was no wonder that six years ago, Brandon forced her father to die. It turned out that he was taking

revenge.

"Yes, your father was stupid, but it's understandable. After all, it’s easy to do stupid and impulsive things when he’s driven to that point." The Old Madam touched Sydney's head in distress.

Sydney closed her eyes. "He was too impulsive."

"Don't you find something very wrong about that?" Julien suddenly spoke out at that moment.

Sydney looked up at him. "What?"

"Since your father drowned Clarice in front of Brandon and his wife, why didn't your father go to prison?"

Julien continued, "With Brandon's vengeful character, he'd never have let your father and Skylight off, but he did. Not only did he not pursue your father's legal responsibility, he even let your father go back to continue to develop Skylight and only dealt with your father and Skylight six years ago."

Sydney was struck by a realization. "That's right. Why did he do that? Grandma, do you know?"

She looked at the Old Madam.

The Old Madam shook her head. "I'm not too sure about that. Maybe there was some kind of deal between your father and Brandon at that time. There's no other explanation."

Sydney bit her lower lip. "Maybe but no matter what, the Raines and Madden families’ had irreconcilable

grudge."

Brandon was the one who caused this hatred.

Although her dad killed Brandon's daughter, Brandon also forced her dad to die.

The hatred between human lives was offset, but there was still the hatred between Brandon and Skylight. She would avenge this grudge!

When Julien saw the hatred in Sydney's eyes, he wanted to erase it for her.

Her eyes were beautiful and should not be tainted with these things.

However, he knew that he was not qualified, nor did he have the right to erase it.
