"Soon after, we found out that Nikki had been lying to us all along and that Terry was misunderstood.
"Because of this, Luke felt guilty that he acted out of impulse instead of trying to understand what truly happened first, so he sent some of his men to Terry’s house with a doctor, hoping they’d be able to salvage the situation before it was too late.
"However, when they got there, they ran into Sean, who was kicked out of Terry's house. He even had a gift with him, as though he was there to apologize."
Luna pursed her lips and glanced dubiously at Gwen. "Well... What time did Luke's men visit Terry?"
Gwen shrugged. "Don't you know the answer to this? Gangsters always work at night, so I'm sure they must’ve gone around midnight.
"One of Luke’s men recognized Sean and guessed that he was probably there to apologize, so they dragged him into the house alongside them.
"First, he apologized to Terry's family, then tried to explain to them that he had also been tricked by Nikki. The doctor tended to Terry until about five in the morning, and Sean stayed with them throughout the night. He left with everyone else at the crack of dawn."
Luna furrowed her brows upon hearing this.
Luke's men had claimed that Sean was with them the entire night. However, on the phone, Fred had told her that he had seen Sean inside his room, working until almost four in the morning.
If this was the case...where was Sean last night?
All of a sudden, her phone buzzed with a message.
Luna glanced at her screen.
Butler Fred had sent her a photo.
Inside the photo, the light in Sean's room was still on, despite it being 4 in the morning, and even through the window, one could vaguely make out the silhouette of a man sitting in front of his computer as though he was doing work.
[Ms. Luna, this is a photo that I took this morning. I had forgotten to send it to you just now. initially, I had snapped this photo when I passed by and noticed that Mr.
Sean was still awake, but now that I think of it, he might've been working on
something.]
