Chapter 330: Chapter 331: Is it you?
There was a faint trace that one could make out upon close inspection: it was a footprint, delicate in shape, likely belonging to a girl.
Clearly, someone had entered and exited the bathroom through the window, killed Nancy, and staged the scene to look like a suicide.
Moses curled the corner of his lips upward; it was just as he had suspected—how could someone like Nancy possibly commit suicide?
"Gaia, was it you?"
"Sir?!" His subordinate approached, puzzled, "Did you find something?"
"She didn’t kill herself," Moses nodded toward the footprint on the windowsill, "Clean it up!"

...
For the following two days, the city was abuzz with two pieces of news.
The first, without a doubt, concerned Nancy. After the police had investigated, they found nothing unusual and still ruled Nancy’s death a suicide from shame of facing journalistic inquiry regarding the polo affairs.
The media did not relent on the girl even after her death, digging deep into her conduct. The past indiscretions of this noble lady quickly surfaced, tarnishing her reputation in just two days.
On the other side, there was Gan Yuan.
Due to Huangfu Jue’s special status, Gan Yuan’s appearance also drew a lot of attention from the reporters—unlike Nancy’s negative press, Gan Yuan was met with overwhelmingly positive coverage.
Making her first appearance, she conquered countless hearts with her strong command of language and outstanding beauty.
People were guessing who she was, where she came from...some even noticed the ring on her finger, speculating that she might be marrying the Prince.
All media outlets were dominated by these two news stories, to the extent that the car accident of the rich merchant’s daughter Jenny, was like a tiny pebble causing scarcely a ripple—a small snippet on the newspaper, its wording exceedingly terse.
"Jenny, missing for two days, collided with a truck in the suburbs... dead on the scene."
Looking at the brief news article, Gan Yuan’s fingers trembled violently.
Others might have missed it, but she realized this was certainly no coincidence.
If she still harbored any hopes before, thinking Nancy might have indeed committed suicide, now she was convinced—without a doubt, it must have been Moses’s doing.
Huangfu Jue, dressed in a black suit, walked into the living room from the parlor, "If you don’t want to go, you don’t have to accompany me."
Today was Nancy’s funeral, and as a representative of the Royal Family, he was to attend. Besides the Royal Family, Gan Yuan had also received a personal invitation to the funeral from Qian Xueying.
"No!" Gan Yuan put down the newspaper and stood up from the chair, "I’ll go with you."
Moses conducting himself in this way meant that he was not fooled by her act; as for what he was planning to do next, Gan Yuan didn’t have a clue.
Attending a funeral was extremely dangerous; she had to accompany him, just in case.
"Should I go too?"
Gan Tang asked from across the room.
"No need, you stay home," Gan Yuan walked around the table and approached him, "Be good and listen to Uncle Charlie, don’t run around. Mommy will be back soon."
The little one immediately nodded in agreement.
Huangfu Jue gestured to Charlie, "Take good care of Xiaotang."
"Yes, Sir!" Charlie immediately responded respectfully.
As the two of them headed for the door, Gan Tang, accompanied by Charlie, went to see them off.
Watching the two walk away, he immediately stepped down the stairs.
"Uncle Charlie, let’s go play polo!"
"Of course," Charlie immediately agreed with a smile.
Together, they went to the back lawn. The child quickly mounted a pony, and after several days of practice, he had become quite adept.
Before they knew it, they had reached the edge of the estate; with a swing of his mallet, the polo ball flew over the fence and into the woods.

Good morning.
Guess who is going to make an appearance? ~!~
