Chapter 1627

John turned to Mia. “Tell me, what did she make you do?”

Mia swiped a glance at Julie, then turned back to John with an unnerved look “Master Stockton, would you promise to not lay a

finger on my family if | told you everything?”

John agreed, “I promise to not hurt your family.

Mia took a deep breath and began her confession, “Madam has made me do many things for her that | can’t even keep count of

Those pictures of you that you see in the secret room and those wax figures? | was the one who made them for her.”

John frowned. “What did she have you do for her recently?”

Recently?

Mia racked her mind and began spilling her secrets, “After you took Ms. Fowler back home, she has been trying to come up with

some ways to get Ms. Fowler to leave you for good At first, she went about it by trying to sow conflict between Ms. Fowler and

Madam Stockton, hoping that Madam Stockton would get upset with her and try to boot her out of the house. At one point, Ms.

Julie found out about it and gave her a stern lecture.”

“It was around that time when | began noticing that you two haven't been sleeping together, and so | informed her about it. That

was when she began to have me spy on you two now and then until this one time when Ms. Fowler got drunk and slept over at

your room. When she found out about it, she got so frantic that she forgot to lock the secret room because she was in such a

hurry, and that was how Madam Stockton found out about the existence of the room.”

“Madam Stockton wanted to find her a new husband so that she wouldn't have to stay here all the time, but she didn’t want to be

away from you, so she began plotting...”

John frowned menacingly. “How did she do it?”

Mia’s voice was trembling. “It was that time when you went on a business trip and were away for a few days. When she found

out that Ms. Fowler was taking Miss Caprice to the park, she had me tip off Master Mason and arrange a coincidental meeting

between the two. While they were are the park, | took pictures of them together | also heard about them making plans to go out

for dinner. You know what happened after that...”

The ceiling lights above cast a harsh, brilliant glow on the man’s face. Despite that, it could not erase the heavy gloom on his

face.

Madam Stockton, Queenie, and Emerence were equally surprised by the confession.

For a moment, nothing but silence lingered in the air around them.

John’s voice broke the hefty silence, “Continue.”

There was no going back at this point.

Mia decided to spill everything she knew. She hoped that the man would not cause trouble for her family, and if possible, for her

to receive forgiveness as well.

“It was the night when Ms. Fowler and Master Mason had dinner and you took Ms. Fowler back home. | was hiding in the

courtyard the entire time spying on you two, then | went to tell Ms. Julie about your argument with Ms. Fowler. After she found

out about what went down, she deduced that Ms. Fowler was going to take Miss Caprice away and sent me back to hiding in the

courtyard before the break of dawn. Just as she suspected, | did see Ms. Fowler sneaking out with Miss Caprice away, and |

immediately told

her what I saw Shortly after that well, the car accident happened”

John looked at her pointedly and asked sharply, “Was it her who messed with the brakes?”

Mia threw a fleeting glance at Julie who was pinned to the ground, completely harmless in her current state since she was at

John’s mercy She gulped and confessed, “She got a professional hitman to do the job.”

A thick, looming silence consumed the room.

John’s murderous gaze cast itself over Julie.

He was surprised by the amount of self restraint he displayed at this moment. In his mind, he had already. delivered a swift,

furious kick to her head.

“Ugh.” Julie could feel the sheer intensity of John’s gaze. She recoiled and instantly burst into tears.

Madam Stockton grimaced and sighed.

Queenie wore a tight frown the entire time. She was filled with equal shock and disbelief! She was completely oblivious to all the

nasty things Julie had done to their family. Even Sherry’s attempt of running away with Caprice was part of the wretched

woman's scheme!

The air inside the room was nothing short of suffocating.

John looked at Julie, then turned to Mia again. His voice was chilling. “Is there anything else you want to tell me?”

Mia suddenly recalled something and quickly informed, “One more thing, the reason she came here just now was that she

wanted to take Madam Stockton off life support to finish her off for good. She even hired several hitmen and told them to have

Ms. Fowler assassinated!”

John’s pupils instantly widened upon hearing this., “What did you say?! Who did you say she was going to assassinate?”

Mia recoiled from the man’s sudden outburst and whimpered in fright. “She told them to burn... to burn. the house you had Ms.

Fowler locked up in. She wants Ms. Fowler burned to death in the house...”
