Jacob was stunned and he couldn't really believe his eyes. It was his fir
st time witnessing such a strange incident.
"The Dark Lord! It must be the Dark Lord's doing!" some members of the Ha
rmon family started shouting. From time to time before this, some Harmon
family members would die sudden deaths, but none of them had been as terr
ifying as this incident.
"How very brutal!" Hector frowned deeply, looking distressed. Someone had
killed Quentin first, then controlled his body with witchcraft to poison
the whole Harmon family. These tactics were not just cunning
but vicious. Nobody other than the Dark Lord could be capable of it.
"I'm sure you guys believe my words now?" Dustin said at the perfect timi
ng.
T-
"I-
.." Jacob was hesitant to speak. Although it was hard to accept, the fact
s were laid before him, and he had no choice but to believe it.
"Dad! The truth is out. Won't you ask your men to fall back?" Natasha sai
d.
"Fall back." Hector gestured with his hand for the guards to retreat.
"Hector! He is my only son. He can't just die for nothing!" Trent wailed.
He was sitting collapsed on the floor.
"Jacob! This incident has nothing to do with Dustin. Our hatred should be
directed at the Dark Lord!" Hector said grimly.
"But "Trent opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. He couldn't
bring himself to accept this revelation.
"Trent, don't worry. Quentin's death will not be in vain. We will find th
e Dark Lord and avenge Quentin!" Hector promised.
"Ahh… my poor son!" Trent sobbed sorrowfully.
Hector sighed and patted him on the back in consolation. Then, he turned
to look at Dustin and asked the question everybody was curious about. "Ho
w could you tell?"
"I already realized that something was off since
yesterday, but I couldn't be sure. Only when I got close to Quentin today
did I realize that his face was deathly pale, and his limbs were stiff.
There was even a smell of rot on him. Although the incense covered the sm
ell of rot, I still managed to notice. Of course, I did not act rashly. T
he main question I had to find the answer to was who was controlling Quen
tin's body and what this person's motive is," Dustin explained.
"Then have you found out?" Hector asked.
Dustin nodded and said, "Of course, I've already found out who the perpet
rator is."
"Who is it?" Hector narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists subconscious
ly.
"This person is so near yet so far." Dustin looked around and pointed at
a pretty young woman beside Trent." It's her!"
"Huh?" Everybody looked in the direction he was pointing in and immediate
ly frowned.
"Me?" The young woman was stunned. "Bullshit! You speak nothing but nonse
nse!"
After a moment of shock, Trent got worked up. "You idiot! You just murder
ed my son, and now you're slandering my wife? What are you trying
to do?!"
"Dustin, do you know that she is my sister–in–
law?" Hector asked with a frown.
"Of course I do," Dustin said calmly. "Not only is she your sister–
in–
law, but also the perpetrator of this incident. She is the mastermind beh
ind controlling Quentin's corpse!"
