"She..." Xiao Wei hesitated for a moment before speaking, "She has a daughter who once pursued Master Yan, but Master Yan rejected her. After being rejected, her daughter fell into despair. She drank by the lake and accidentally fell in, drowning to death. So, she bears a grudge…"
Jian Shichu's face was livid with anger, the veins on his forehead throbbing. "How did she manage to sneak into the villa?"
The Jian family had always been meticulous in hiring people. They would investigate up to eight generations of a person's ancestry, ensuring absolute cleanliness in background. They preferred employees who either had families and could be controlled, or orphans raised by the family who would remain loyal. Outsiders were never allowed in.
So how could someone who was connected to Xiao Yan, and even held a grudge against him, sneak in?
"Well…" Xiao Wei lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and muttered, "It was Master Yan who brought her in…"
