Chapter 191 Action (2)

The sound of paper rustling wasn’t loud but the old man wasn’t careful and his hand bumped against a
crystal ornament and his heart almost jumped out of him. He carefully arranged it back properly and
calmed down.

He looked at the door guiltily and took a deep breath.

He was sure that there wouldn’t be anyone coming at this time and his actions weren’t rushed nor
haphazard. He carefully erased any trace of his presence.

The document folder was exactly the same as the one he had in his hands.

This kind of document folder was easy to buy and there was nothing special about it.

Even so, the old man wasn’t satisfied and opened the folder in his hands and pulled out some
documents, and then did the same to the folder on the table to compare.

“What are you doing in Boss’s study?”

A curious voice sounded behind his back and the old man who was comparing the documents was
startled!

At that moment, he broke out in cold sweat.

He didn’t dare to turn around and slowly turned around... it was Kirk.

“You, didn’t you go with Master to the hospital?”

Kirk raised his eyebrow, “Sam, you haven’t answered me how were you able to enter Boss’s study?”
The person who went with Boss to the hospital was Ladd and not him. Two days ago Boss assigned
him to carry out another task.



In the past, Boss would have him and Ladd on either side of him but recently Boss preferred Ladd. Just
like that day when Old Master Shaw fainted, in an emergency Boss chose Ladd to drive him and
assigned Kirk to remain to guard the manor. In this incident, he felt that he had drifted further from the
Boss.

When he was mulling these, he arrived on the second floor and heard some faint sounds coming from
the study. Though the sound was soft, it raised his curiosity.

Master had clearly left the manor, so who could be in the study?

Kirk’s mind was racing and immediately thought of ... that woman!

Once Master wasn’t around, that woman will start messing around!

Kirk hated it when he thought about it.

This kind of hatred came from deep within him and can’t be faked easily.

But when he thought about the woman’s sneaky actions, Kirk went towards the study and listened.
Though the sound was faint, there was indeed some rustling sounds coming from inside the study.
Kirk’s heart jumped... finally! Finally, he has caught the woman red-handed!

Kirk wanted to catch her red-handed and not alert her of his presence. He also wanted to find out what
she was doing!

He also wanted to show Boss her true colors!

The study was very dark and without a light. The thick curtains blocked out most of the light and he
could only see a black figure. Kirk’s heartbeat raced... Finally! Finally, I caught you red-handed and in
the act!



But the next moment, Kirk was stunned, “What are you doing in Boss’s study?” It was Sam!

He was immeasurably surprised!

Not only did Sam not answer, but he asked in return. Furthermore, Sam’s sneaky actions raised Kirk’s
suspicious, “What’s in your hands?”

Sam’s old face frowned, “Nothing.”

Kirk’s hands were fast and snatched over the folder from Sam’s hands.

“Kirk! You can’t see them!”

Sam suppressed his voice.

This increased Kirk’s suspicion and looked at the documents. With a hand, he pushed Sam away when
he tried to take back the folder, “What are these?”

“Nothing!”

“Nothing then why did you sneak into Boss’ study?” Kirk didn’t believe and by right he shouldn’t be
looking at these documents. But firstly, Sam’s actions were suspicious, and secondly, he was curious
about what could make this old butler so nervous.

With one hand pushing Sam away, the other hand raising up the document to look. He didn’t mean to
look at them in detail and only wanted to scare Sam, “Why can’t I look? Are these some shameful
documents? I’ll see them for myself if you don’t tell me.”

He was just going through the actions to scare Sam and didn’t expect his eyes to catch a line of words
and he turned somber.

He didn’t bother about Sam and took up the document in surprise.



Suddenly, Sam lunges at Kirk and shouts, “You cannot see them, you can’t see them!!!”

Sam panicked.

Kirk easily pushed Sam away and he tripped over himself and fell down to the ground.

“What’s this! Sam! What is written here? Are they real???” He couldn’t believe his eyes and his gaze
fell on the document folder on the table. He remembered the black figure was comparing the
documents... without delay, Kirk took out the documents and looked at them.

The two sets of documents had very different ‘Truth of the matter’.

Which was true and which was fake... it wasn’t important now. Kirk was clear that if what Sam had in
his hands were fake, then why did he act so sneaky and came to the study to replace the documents?

Sam sat on the floor and then crept on his knees towards Kirk and tugged on his trousers, “Please
don’t tell Boss about this!”

Kirk was shocked!

“Please pretend that this didn’t happen, I beg of you!...

I did all these because of Wallis! Kirk, think about it, Wallis had been kind, gentle, and meek. How could
she do those things? All these are due to Grace!

Think about it, externally, Wallis was cherished by Master and everyone knew that. But Wallis’ good
friend was Grace and she didn’t give up and kept pestering Master.

Wallis had an inferiority complex and it was I who didn’t give her a good status in the family. She was
just the daughter of a common family while Grace came from an elite family. She was talented and
admired by all.



The only thing was that she was loyal to Master and pursued him fervently. Wallis was afraid that
Master would one day be snatched by Grace. Wallis erred in her anxiety. But it was because that
woman was late that night that she was gang-raped.

Wallis paid for her anxiety with her life! Isn’t this enough? No matter how big the incident, isn’t a life
enough of a price?”

Sam wept bitterly, “Kirk, Wallis did do something wrong but that was because of Grace. Now that
Master had married that woman and that woman willingly married Master, isn’t this her wish all along?
Why the need to dig up the past to analyze it? Why seek the truth behind those things that had
happened?

That woman became Mrs. Shaw ... Willis became a pile of ashes... I, Sam Venus, only had one
daughter. She had gone to another world and I only wish that her name on this world was clean. I wish
that in Master’s heart, she was always that kind, warm and timid little girl... Kirk, I beg of you! I’ll bow to
you! Just treat it as if you had no heard nor seen anything!

That woman had obtained what she wanted, hadn’t she? Isn’t the current situation good? Amidst a
joyous environment, I only wanted to ensure that Wallis’ reputation remained good and not be ridiculed.

Kirk, I knew that you ... liked Wallis since you were a kid. I’m sure you don’t want others to think that
Wallis was a vile person, right?

Furthermore, Wallis did it at a moment’s folly! She didn’t intend to harm anyone! That woman was her
best friend! How could she be so vicious to hurt her own friend?”

Kirk started to frown... From the moment Sam said ‘you liked Wallis since you were a kid’, he had
already made up his mind.



“Sam, tell me first... in fact, you had known this since very long ago, right?”

“I... Wallis did mention to me once and I thought that she was just joking. Wallis also said that she
simply wanted to scare Grace and take some photos as evidence. She will not let them do anything
untoward Grace... She just wanted Grace not to pester Master again. I... I treated it as a joke since
Wallis was so timid.”

Kirk clenched his fist and closed his eyes. He tossed the documents towards Sam, “Remember this,
I’m not helping you conceal. I’m not helping you but I’m doing this for Master to maintain a good
memory of Wallis in his heart. Today I didn’t come here, I didn’t see you neither did I see those
documents.”

After finishing, he turned and walked to the corridor. Only in the light, could Kirk’s pale lips and bitter
frown be seen.

As he was walking down the stairs. He heard the sound of a conversation.

It was that woman!

Kirk was distracted and, at that moment, he tripped, and although he didn’t fall, he sounded out in
surprise.

He looked up and saw that woman’s back was towards him but started to turn and look at him... his
heart jumped!

He had a feeling of guilt that he had done something wrong.

He glared back coldly and expressed his displeasure.

Kirk saw that she looked away from him and easily disregarded his disdain.



Perhaps... all his supposition, all his paranoia was exposed suddenly.

Those pages, sentences, and every word were telling him that his hatred for this woman was
unfounded!

A person who he hated, looked down upon and criticized, in that instant the truth was telling him that
his hatred was unreasonable!

He didn’t have any more reason to hate and be disgusted with this woman!

Kirk’s heart was in a strange mess and exceedingly guilty, he could only let off a cold ‘humph!’.

He walked by her without so much as to greet her “Missus” and walked quickly out of the main door...
as if he felt guilty and disgusted with himself.

“Mr. Garcia, today is Missus’ birthday. I need to go to the James residence.”
