Chapter 137 - Tie her up
Alex smiled, though the smile didn’t quite reach his eyes. This puzzle was the easiest he had ever solved.
He was looking for an intruder and now, there was one trying to escape amidst all the chaos in the mansion, making her the perfect suspect.
"Bring her. I would like to ask her some questions," he instructed.
Interrogations usually took more time than necessary and Aiden could not sit around and watch when Violet needed immediate attention.
As much as he wanted to punish her, this was not the time because she was in this situation because of Alex’s despicable brother.
"I’ll take her upstairs," Aiden said, already headed up the stairs, feeling uneasy about Violet’s actions. Jack went to fetch the maid, but Alex was disturbed.
He wanted to be present to ensure nothing went wrong, despite trusting Aiden’s ability to provide basic first aid to Violet in her fragile condition.
"Okay," he reluctantly agreed. As Aiden carried Violet upstairs, the door to Alex’s room creaked open, and Joanna emerged, looking bewildered.
She was still in her party dress and couldn’t comprehend how she had ended up at home.
