Seeing Byron's appearance, Stone once again grasped the magnifying glass.
"You repeat everything that you and Gaude discussed, exactly as it happened."
Upon hearing Stone's words, Byron immediately spilled everything about how he had made a name for himself, how Gaude had found him, and how the two of them had planned out their scheme.
Gaude's plan was just as Byron had described earlier, very simple: they would use Byron's "The Conjuring" to produce writing on paper through trickery, convincing Mr. Bronning's family to sell the manor so that Gaude could buy it at a low price.
What was concerning, however, was that all this planning had been organized in less than a day.
After all, Bronning himself had died not long ago, and today was only the third day; Gaude had almost immediately contacted Byron and arrived at Storm Villa upon learning of Bronning's death, which was suspiciously quick, almost as if he had known in advance that Bronning would die at that time.
