"Something strange happened at the estate a couple of days ago," the man in his fifties, who seemed to be the leader, swallowed hard before continuing.
"Grandpa stayed there for a few days, and the moment he returned, he fell gravely ill.
But instead of arranging treatment, the madam ordered the entire mansion sealed off—no one in or out.
She even cut off all communication signals."
Everyone present was aware that Grandpa had indeed been at the estate recently.
Could something have happened to him even back then?
Encouraged by the first speaker, several servants behind him chimed in.
"That's right!
We were worried about Grandpa's health, so we went to Uncle Carlos, begging him to call the family physician.
But he just told us to obey the madam's orders."
"Uncle Carlos also forbade anyone from getting near Grandpa's room."
"The only people allowed inside the mansion were madam and Assistant Ramsey.
They stayed in Grandpa's chamber for a while before leaving."
