Chapter 387 Lying About Being Friends 

It took about two hours by car to reach Jessica’s house from Coronia University. 

The road was bumpy along the way. During the journey, Callum briefed them on Jessica’s background. 

In short, she was the only child from a wealthy family. This became evident when they saw the

The villa had an antique design, with a large garden in front featuring meticulously cared-for flowers and plants

Grace nodded and followed him out of the car.

started to examine it closely. 

Callum was the first to speak. “Theoretically, the Landon family hasn’t lived here for a long time, but the villa is so well-kempt. It doesn’t look abandoned.” 

After saying this, he stepped forward and rang the doorbell. 

Soon, a woman in her 50s or 60s asking, “Who are you looking for?”

Grace stepped forward with a smile. “Hello, is this Landon 

The woman sized up Grace suspiciously and asked, “And you are?” 

Before Grace could respond, Xander said, “We’re Ms. Jessica’s friends. She asked us to come get something for her. 

Grace turned to look at him. Their eyes met, and Xander gave her a reassuring glance. 

The woman still seemed suspicious of them. “You’re Ms. Jessica’s friends?” 

“Yes.” 

After a moment of hesitation, she was about to say something when Callum took out his phone and handed it to her. 

“Look, this message is from her. She asked us to help her take a design she drew.” 

The woman’s face brightened when she saw Callum showing her a message between him and Jessica.

She opened the door and said joyfully, “Miss hasn’t been home for a long time. I didn’t expect 

that her friends would come for a visit. Please come in.” 

Grace raised her eyebrows and looked at Callum curiously. 

He seemed to understand her confusion and gave her a knowing smile. Without further explanation, the three of them entered the house. 

“I’m the Landon family’s housekeeper. I’ve been here for many years. I was planning to resign after Mr. and Mrs. Landon passed away. But Ms. Jessica took pity on me, seeing that I had nowhere to go as an old woman. She invited me to stay and help look after the house.” 

As the housekeeper spoke, she led them into the living room. 

“Please sit. I’ll go make some tea for you.” 

Then, the housekeeper turned and went to the kitchen. 

Grace took advantage of the moment and asked Callum, “What was that about the message just now?” 

Callum smiled mysteriously, glanced at Xander, and explained, “It was Photoshop. There’s no need to worry.” 

“Is that possible?” 

Grace couldn’t help but wonder if convincing someone using a Photoshopped image was that easy. That was quite an advanced skill! 

Callum continued, “Grace, don’t forget the purpose of our visit. We have to find out what’s going on.” 

As he finished speaking, the housekeeper came out with tea. Grace quickly stood up to help 

her. “Let me do it.” 

“It’s okay. I’ve been doing this for many years. Let me handle it,” the housekeeper insisted, placing the tea on the coffee table in front of them.
