Claire raised her head, looking triumphant, “Of course I’m happy, I’d hate to
find the murderer Paula.”
It turned out that Paula really loved her sister, she didn’t hurt her and
never would.
Learning was to Claire’s great delight.
Sean nodded knowingly, “Indeed, if Paula isn’t the murderer, then she meant what she had done for your mother out of good intentions, and your mother, if
still alive, owes her a lot.”
“Right.” Claire pouted, “So if something happens to the Summers family in the future, I need to lend a hand even just for her sake.”
But the thought of helping Kira gave Claire a bit of a headache as the former was always in trouble.
“Mr. Sean, Miss Donovan…”
Gerald rushed in and saw Claire sitting on Sean’s lap that he blushed and he wanted to walk out, but because of the urgency of the matter, he was caught
in a dilemma.
Sean just hugged Claire, not shying away at all, “Gerald, what is it?”
“Sir, here’s the thing.”
Gerald rushed to answer, “The Summers family just sent two people here…”
He carefully glanced at Claire before saying slowly, “It’s Clarissa and

Alice.”
Sean frowned, “Just get them a room, do you need to come to me in such a hurry for such a trivial matter?”
“Sir, it’s not like that.” Gerald chagrined and said, “They were sent here
and they looked… simply miserable. I have never known a person could starve so thin. Besides, Clarissa seemed to have gone crazy, I don’t know what to do
about them, so I came to ask for your instructions.”
Starve? Crazy?
This did sound a bit serious.
Sean pursed his lips, “Okay, I’ll go check it out.”
Claire got off his lap and took his hand, “Sir, I’m going too.”
“Claire…”
Sean was a little worried, “It might not look good. Why don’t you just stay
here and I’ll take care of it?”
Gerald had seen a lot of things in his life, and for him to use the word “miserable“, the situation must be awful.
Claire had a lot of skills, but she was a girl after all, she might have nightmares when she saw that.
Claire, however, was unimpressed, “What’s to be scared of? Can it be more disgusting than me taking a scalpel and opening someone up to see their intestines?”
Sean was speechless.

How did he forget about that one?
The people who could tolerate the most nausea in this world would have to be
the doctors.
“Uh… well, we’ll go together then.”
On the way there, Claire reassured Sean and shared with him the things back
in university.
“Sir, you know what? When I took my first anatomy class, the professor made us stay with a corpse soaked in formalin, some of the students couldn’t take it and wanted to escape, but the professor purposely closed the door so that they couldn’t.”
Gerald’s mind self–consciously went to that scene, and just the thought of a group of people surrounding a corpse made his stomach a little queasy.
Claire got more and more excited, however, “That day, many students puked, and many others had nightmares when they went back, they were so scared, but this was just a small trick of our professor, he had more ruthless methods!”
Sean asked, “What methods?”
Claire laughed when she recalled it, “After school, the professor wouldn’t even let us leave, he had the boxed lunch brought over, then we ate facing the corpse, and when we’re done, we can leave after school.”
Gerald was shocked to hear that.
The professor was really ruthless!
He felt like vomiting just listening to her description, not to mention those

Claire swayed Sean’s hand happily as she walked, “So, I’ve been trained, and what Gerald said is no big deal.”
Gerald was still shocked from just now. When he just saw Clarissa and Alice, he tried hard to keep himself from throwing up, but Claire just said it was no big deal? He was not even as brave as her.
They talked and soon arrived.
It was a confined room with nothing more than a bed in it, a room that the Vanderbilt family specially arranged to punish villains who used underhanded tactics against the Vanderbilt family.
The room was forty square meters, and even though there were already several people in it, it didn’t look cramped when they walked in.
“Mr. Sean,” Gerald pointed to the two women sitting on the bed with their arms around their legs, “that’s them.”
Sean had seen Clarissa and Alice before, in his impression, Alice was a plump woman, although a little rustic, quite radiant while Clarissa was a young woman, although not to the point of stunning, had good looks.
But now, those two women were sitting on the bed, unkempt, their hair seemed like it hadn’t been washed in months, messy and dirty, and their faces were stained. Their eyes were sunken, he couldn’t even see their facial features clearly anymore.
The clothes on them were ragged and tattered, with holes in many places, especially their arms that were exposed looked like twigs, it was hard to describe how thin they were.

Claire blinked her eyes and frowned slightly. “Are they really Clarissa and Alice? I really wouldn’t be able to recognize them if you didn’t tell me.”
“It’s them.”
Gerald nodded, “They are hard to be recognized even for their closest family. now, I suppose.”

The woman sitting against the wall looked lifeless, she just stared down at
her toes as she mumbled something.
Claire lifted her foot and wanted to walk over to hear what she was saying, but Sean grabbed her wrist.
“Claire, don’t go, they hate you. There’s no guarantee they’ll go crazy if
they see you.”
Claire hesitated and eventually stopped, “I just wanted to hear what she was
saying.”
One of the men standing there watching over them heard Claire’s words and respectfully replied, “She’s talking about roasted chicken.”
