Married by Accident Taming the Billionaire (Cecilia)
Chapter 361 Trap

Chapter 361 Trap

"I don't need to report to you about my relationship with others. Your tricks would deceive everyone even if I did not attend the press conference."

While speaking, a hint of coldness and sarcasm flashed across Cecelia's clear eyes.

"I will figure it out even if you don't tell me."

Olivia had leaked trade secrets, so the Songo Group would pursue the matter and let her compensate. Queenie had contacted her assistant, who said he would come to Porema in three days to resolve the issue in person.

"Let's put this matter aside for now. What is your purpose for coming to the Songo family? Why did you ask my father such a question during the meal?"

"Take my question literally. I want to find out why my grandmother left the Songo family. It's none of your business."

"I'm not interested in your affairs. I advise you not to break the rules of the Songo family or get involved in our family affairs! If you want to find out what happened to your grandmother, you should go to where she used to live."

"Where?"

Seeing her take the bait, Queenie pointed forward and said, "The back garden of our house. Go straight, and you will see a walled courtyard in the west. That's where she lived when she was young." Cecelia was stunned to hear that the locked place she and Fiona had seen in the back garden was her grandmother's former residence.

"I have passed by that place once. It is locked."

"Daisy has the key."

Queenie turned around, saying, "Don't say I told you about it."

After she left, Cecelia stood in place and pondered for a moment. Then, she decided to go into the mysterious place to look. After making up her mind, she went to ask Daisy for the key. Hearing her want to enter West Garden, Daisy was so frightened that her face turned pale. Then, she said, "Cecelia, you must not go there!"

"Why?"

"Old Mr. Songo does not allow people to enter there without permission. Anyone breaking the rule will be severely punished. I will be finished if he knows I give you the key."

Hearing this, Cecelia understood Queenie had deliberately revealed the information to her to lure her into West Garden. Once she went there, she would break the rules and be punished by Alfred. Queenie had deliberately set up a trap for her!

After seeing through her trick, Cecelia wanted to go in to have a look more. Otherwise, Queenie would have carefully plotted against her in vain.

Cecelia curiously asked, "Daisy, why can't people go in? What's inside? I heard my grandmother used to live there when she was young. Why can't I go in to have a look?"

"A person is living there. I am responsible for delivering food to him every day. But I can only put the food at the door. I can't go in either."

"Really? Who is living there? Fiona said a psychopath who kills people is inside. Is it true?"

Cecelia insisted on getting to the bottom of the matter.

"Yes. Jesper has a weird temper. It is difficult for outsiders to get close to him. He has violent tendencies so he might have killed people." Cecelia patiently asked, "Who is Jesper?"

Daisy knew a lot, so Cecelia believed she could get helpful information.

Daisy explained to make her give up, "Jesper used to be the butler of the Songo family. I heard he suddenly went crazy and stabbed people with a knife. But he had saved Old. Mr. Songo's life before. Old. Mr. Songo settled him in West Garden and decided to support him for the rest of his life. He does not allow us to get close to Jesper for our safety."

Daisy was panicked when she advised, "You must not go there!"

The forbidden place must have something fishy. And the former butler might know something about her grandmother. So, Cecelia would take the risk to go in. But she could understand Daisy's concerns and difficulties and said, "Daisy, I promise not to implicate you after you let me in. Please give me the key. You can say you accidentally lost it. And I will say I picked it up."

"But..."

When Daisy hesitated, Cecelia suddenly held her cold hands and pleadingly looked at her, saying, "Daisy, please! Can you help me?"

"No! Please forgive me. I can't give it to you. I'm just a maid. And I need to support my family. I can't!"

While speaking, Daisy burst into tears. Cecelia understood her worries and comforted her, saying, "It's OK. I no longer want the key. You don't need to give it to me. But can you do me a favor?"

"What favor?"

"If someone asks you whether you gave the key to me later, please say yes!"

Although Daisy didn't understand why, she still nodded.

After they parted ways, Cecelia went to West Garden alone. On the way, she contacted Remington and learned they were dining elsewhere. After she told them her plan, Remington and Adam decided to meet her after the meal.

She passed through the back garden and headed west. Then, she saw the walls and locked the door. A lock could not stop her. She had plenty of ways to get in if she wanted to. She removed a thin iron wire and fiddled with the lock. Soon, she successfully picked up the lock.

Opening the door, She quietly walked in with curiosity.

The scenery inside was different from her imagination. It was not desolate or decadent. Instead, the garden had been carefully cared for and managed. Everything looked well-organized and full of vitality. There were a lot of irises, and the purple flowers were in full bloom. When the breeze blew, they looked like many purple butterflies gracefully dancing.

They reminded her that her grandpa had planted iris flowers in Canes Mansion because her grandma had loved it.

Cecelia continued walking inside. Then, she saw a house with many bonsais of different shapes outside. It did not look like a place where a mentally ill person lived.

There was a large water tank in the middle of the yard with a bamboo tube for water circulation, so the water was constantly flowing. And there were beautiful goldfish in the tank.

When she reached out to touch the wind chime on the bamboo tube, it made a crisp sound. But suddenly, she heard an angry beast coming from behind.

After slowly turning around, she saw a ferocious large wolfdog baring its fangs to warn her.

Suddenly, it angrily barked and rushed over.
