Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Chapter 1040 Whose Fault



The angles of the surveillance cameras in Mike’s room were off, possibly indicating that the servants and maids deliberately avoided them.

When Patrick saw this scene, he knew it was time to make a decision.

“There’s not much time to review every detail on the surveillance footage. Besides, I’m worried about those people at the hospital too!”

“Let’s split up. I’ll go to the hospital to take care of Mike, and you stay here to investigate what really happened.”

Jane nodded when she heard this. “You go ahead and take care of things. If anything comes up, we’ll contact each other.”

Upon hearing this, Patrick hesitated less. He felt anxious in his heart.

After all, when he was young, he had a good relationship with Mike. He could still feel the love Mike had for him back then.

So for Patrick, seeing Mike in this state, alone and uncared for, was something he didn’t want to see.

He felt anger in his heart and started to have opinions about the people in his own house. He knew they must be aware of the situation.

If they didn’t know about it, it would just show their lack of filial piety.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

From any angle, he didn’t want any further accidents to happen to Mike under the care of these people.

That’s why he decided to split up with Jane. He didn’t want to explain the situation in too much detail.

After all, Jane already had a bad relationship with the people in the house. If he explained everything in detail and caused further conflicts, it would be meaningless.

Their relationship was already at an absolute freezing point. If it continued to deteriorate, it would inevitably break.

Even the relationship between Patrick and his own family was shaky at the moment.

Patrick himself hadn’t handled this relationship well, let alone Jane, who had suffered so much before.

Patrick also felt anger in his heart, so investigating the matter was the most suitable task for Jane.

He wanted to rush to the hospital to take care of Mike and fulfill his filial duty.

This way, it would avoid Jane’s embarrassment and allow them to promptly uncover the truth.

After Jane finished watching the surveillance footage, she identified a suspicious point. The most suspicious thing was where the servants and maids had disappeared to.

Moreover, when they disappeared from the view of the surveillance camera before, what were they doing? Jane used her connections to find one of them.

“If you want this matter to escalate, that’s not a problem. I can go with you to the relevant department now, and we can discuss it there!”

“I don’t want to pursue any specific matter, but I want to know the truth. So think carefully about how you’ll answer my questions.”

Jane stared at the maid in front of her, looking into her eyes. The maid showed a hint of evasion, indicating that their actions were indeed suspicious.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this hesitation. Jane already knew the outcome from that look.

“I’m sincerely willing to discuss this matter with you, so you can tell me the truth. Even if you made a mistake, as long as it’s something tolerable, it’s fine.”

“I don’t care about the little things lost. What I care about is what happened during this period. If you don’t speak, I’m going to make a phone call now.”

Jane clearly expressed her stance. She picked up the phone, pretending to make a call. The maid saw this and quickly nodded.

“Don’t make the call. I’ll tell you everything. We didn’t take anything significant, just a few small things.”

“I can even guarantee that the majority of people haven’t even taken money, or perhaps no one has taken anything of equivalent value.”

The maid told Jane that indeed, their actions were not completely clean while working there.

It was because occasionally when they brought back some pots, pans, or food from the house, it didn’t attract anyone’s attention.

So their courage grew, but they all understood without saying it out loud that taking these small things was not a big issue.

Moreover, they didn’t have the opportunity to come into contact with any money. All the wealth and valuable items were locked in a safe by Mike himself.

They didn’t have fingerprints, keys, or the safe’s password, so they couldn’t touch what was inside.

Instead, they simply shifted their focus to other things inside the residence, of which everyone could see the larger items.

They wouldn’t take those things; they would only take the small items as the maid had just mentioned.

“We only took a few of these things at most, so I’m willing to admit that I’ve taken them before, but I guarantee I never touched the money.”

Jane nodded. Although the safe was not open at the moment, cracking a string of passwords was not difficult for her.

If it was cracking the safe of a stranger, it might be difficult, as there would be no way to figure out the digits.

However, for Mike, he habitually used a few specific numbers.

As long as she experimented with different combinations, she could figure it out.

“I believe what you’re saying.”

“Also, how long have you all been away? Was Mike living alone during that time?”

Upon hearing Jane’s question, the maid told Jane that she had left two weeks ago.

As for when the others left, she didn’t know.

She had resigned and left because of some personal matters at her own home.

Jane asked a few more questions, but the maid didn’t have much information. She couldn’t help it, so Jane took the maid’s phone number.

This way, it would be convenient for them to stay in touch. The maid also felt relieved when she saw that Jane truly didn’t intend to pursue the matter further.

After returning to Mike’s residence, Jane used her hacking skills and spent a few hours to open the safe.

Inside the safe, she could see everything neatly arranged.
