"The reason Dongfang resorted to murder was that your girlfriend seduced him," the butler said in a calm tone.
It was as if a bomb had been thrown between Dongfang and Situ, stunning them both.
Situ was completely frozen, his previously clenched fists falling limply, as if he had lost all sensation.
So that was it...
Over the years, as he had pondered back and forth, he hadn't ruled out this possibility. But if that were the reason, Dongfang could have just told him directly; why keep it from him?
"That is indeed the reason," the butler continued in his composed voice, yet he said nothing more, nor did he show any intention of mediating the conflict between Dongfang and Situ.
Although Dongfang wasn't as completely dazed as Situ, he too was greatly shocked and asked, "How... how would you know?"
The butler served closely with Huo Siyu, and although he held a high position, he only looked after matters inside the house and never involved himself with external affairs.
