Chapter 881


    The more he thought about it, the more absurd he found it to be. Jarold didn''t believe it.


    "It''s impossible. I watched Monica grow up. How could she do such a thing? Sebastian, in order not


    to get engaged to her, you dared to team up with Geoffrey to lie to me like this?"


    Geoffrey said, "Master Collins, why would we team up and lie to you? This matter, if not managed


    well, will tarnish our reputation. If it''s not true, why would we say it?"


    At this moment, Maddoxughed a little. It was a hollowugh, and it sounded sarcastic.


    "Grandpa, I knew you wouldn''t believe it, so..."


    As soon as he finished speaking, two people came in, and they escorted a servant in.


    Geoffrey blinked his eyes at the scene as if he had not realized what had happened.


    Jarold looked at the servant, who had been escorted in, and recognized her as the servant who


    usually served him tea. Suddenly, he seemed to have understood something.


    However, he didn''t expect that Maddox had taken action so fast.


    Two men in ck brought over the servant. When she saw the people in the hall, her face


    immediately turned pale with fear, "Let me go! I don''t know anything. I am innocent!"


    Although she hadn''t confessed anything, her crazy reaction had already exined everything.


    When Master Collins saw the expression on the servant''s face, he suddenly felt that what Maddox


    and Geoffrey had said might be true. That girl, Monica, had really done something despicable and


    dirty.


    However... If such a thing was to really spread out, the reputation of the Dormer family would


    probably be ruined by her.


    He had such a deep friendship with the Dormer Family. How could he watch Monica and the


    Dormer Family''s reputation be ruined like this?


    When he thought of this, Jarold immediately said, "Why are you shouting here? It''s so noisy. Hurry


    up and drag her away!"


    It was rare for him to be so strict with his family''s servants in everyone''s eyes. He had always been


    gentle with them, not would he ever look down on them.


    However, since he said so, it meant that he was really panicked. He was trying his best to protect


    the reputations of the Dormer family and the


    Collins family.


    But how could Maddox follow his will?


    Even if it was his grandfather, some things had to be brought to light. He did not like to live a life of


    being controlled by others.


    "Grandpa, why are you in such a hurry? Let''s hear what she''s going to say next."


    Jarold took a deep breath and looked at him,


    Their gazes met. For the first time, he discovered that Maddox''s gaze was so cold and icy. For a


    moment, he felt as if Maddox was no longer treating him as his grandfather.


    Baldrick''s words before he went downstairs suddenly appeared in his mind.


    "No matter what, Mr. Sebastian is your grandson whom you found with great difficulty. Master


    Collins, you shouldn''t hurt his heart because of some... matters."


    Those words suddenly echoed in Jarold''s ears. He looked at Maddox, suddenly speechless.


    He had always thought that he was doing the right thing for his grandson and he did not want him to


    follow in his mother''s footsteps, but why did it have to end like this?


    What had he done wrong?


    The servant kept crying and shouting. Maddox red at her with a fierce look, and it scared her into


    silence immediately. Then she lowered her head and didn''t dare to make a sound.


    Maddox sneered, "Tell me. What did you dost night? Tell me everything clearly."


    Although these words were spoken to the servant, Maddox''s sharp gaze never left Jarold''s. He


    would not let anyone out of his sight.


    Upon hearing his voice, the servant couldn''t help but tremble. Then, her legs went weak and she fell


    to the ground. After a while, she raised her head and said with tears all over her face, "Mr.


    Sebastian, please forgive me. I was brainwashed, so I did this kind of thing."

    If she had known that she would get caught, she would definitely not do it.


    Maddox''smanding manner had truly frightened her. When he nced at her, her legs had


    already gone limp. When she thought of what she had done to his tea the night before, she felt as if


    her life was at stake.


    "Make it clear!" Seeing that she was vague, Geoffrey went forward and asked her, "What did you do


    last night, what happened, who ordered you to do this; be crystal clear. If you dare to say a wrong


    word, I will..."


    "That''s enough!"


    Jarold couldn''t help but let out a shout.


    He was not a fool. When he heard the servant''s words, how could he still not understand?


    However, he really couldn''t believe that Monica would do such a thing. If the servant continued to


    say...


    "Grandpa, do you feel sorry for Monica?" Maddox smiled coldly, "What about me?"


    Then what about him?


    This question immediately hit the bottom of Jarold''s heart. His pupils contracted slightly as he


    looked at Maddox, unable to say anything.


    "Am I your grandson?"


    Jarold said, "Of course. There is no doubt about it."


    "Then why? I have been wronged, yet you are helping outsiders cover it up instead?" Maddox''s


    gaze was sharp and deep.


    When Jarold looked into his eyes, he knew that if he didn''t let Maddox finish this matter, he would


    probably be disappointed in him.


    "Go on."


    When Maddox saw that Jarold no longer tried to stop him, he curled his lips and said coldly.


    Geoffrey pointed at the servant, "Did you hear that? Hurry up and tell us. If you were a man, I would


    have beaten you up. Do you want to get beaten up?"


    Maybe it was because of Geoffrey''s threat, but the servant was so scared that she shivered and


    immediately said, "I''ll say it! Yes, Miss Dormer asked me to do this!"


    She looked like she was about to pass out from fear. Her eyes turned red, and her voice trembled, "I


    delivered tea to Master Collins and Mr. Sebastian as usualst night. Miss Dormer suddenly gave


    me a pack of medicine and asked me to pour it into Mr. Sebastian''s cup. Then, she promised me


    that she would give me arge sum of money so that I could live a carefree life with my family. I was


    afraid of being discovered, but Miss Dormer said that the medicine is colorless and tasteless. It


    would not be discovered at all. Miss Dormer also said that she would immediately arrange for


    someone to send me away as long as I do this. At that time... no one would find me."


    Who would have thought that Monica herself was injured and the n failed? The person who had


    arranged for her to leave was too slow too, hence she was caught.


    "I''ve already confessed everything. Master Collins, Mr. Sebastian, I know I was wrong. I only did this


    because I was brainwashed. Can you spare me this time for the sake of what I''ve done for the


    Collins family for so many years?"


    Jarold shut his eyes tiredly and let out a heavy sigh.
