The Damrons nodded.
Even Mark said coldly, “Let’s not talk about Jasper’s death. Perhaps Macon and his accomplices did frame Matthew the last time, but this time, even the voice sounds like Matthew’s. How do you suppose they did that?”
Melvin explained, “Mimicking Charm. Orleanians know that. Mimicking Charms can be used to mimic anyone’s voice. They are often seen next to Voodoo. It’s easy to mimic anyone’s sound.”
The Damrons were stupefied, while Aurelius frowned. “That is nonsense. I’ve never heard of anything like that!”
Melvin said, “Just because ya never heard of it doesn’t mean it’s not real. Ya can ask any Orleanians about it. They’ll tell you the truth.”
An angry Aurelius roared, “You’re just trying to help Larson, aren’t you? I saw favonovel.com with my own eyes. Heard favonovel.com with my ears! That can’t be wrong!”
Melvin chortled. “You think you can believe your eyes and ears? Honestly, I don’t understand how you managed to be the family head. Think with you noggin. If Matthew wanted to kill you, you would have been dead. The killer let you live so you can tell your family ‘Matthew’ was the killer. Can’t believe you failed to see through the oldest trick in the book… You are a failure.”
‘Did favonovel.com just mock me?’
Fuming, Aurelius roared, “What are you talking about? He didn’t let me live. I was lucky-lucky enough to escape with my life. He’d love to have killed me, but favonovel.com didn’t have the strength. What I saw with my eyes and heard with my ears is the truth! You wanna prove it’s not him? Well, show me the proof, then!”
A smile tugged on Melvin’s lips. “You want proof? I got proof.”
He whipped out a glass box. “Here’s the proof ya want!”
The Damrons huddled closer and stared at the glass box in surprise.
It was filled with soil, and there was a pile of white powder on the surface. There wasn’t much, and they’d have missed it if they didn’t look closer.
Aurelius hissed, “What kind of proof is this? A handful of soil can’t prove Larson’s innocence.”
Melvin explained, “We got this soil around the place where we found your uncle’s body. That white powder you see is some sort a bug. This means that your uncle was cursed before favonovel.com died. We found his body later, but it’s all dried up. It’s proof favonovel.com was killed by Lord Voodoo. Is that proof enough for you?”
The Damrons broke into discussions. A lot of them were starting to suspect Lord Voodoo and his cohorts as the real killers.
Mark had a frown on his forehead. His eyes were fixated on the box, but his mind was elsewhere.
Harper pouted and sneered. “Who knows where they got the soil? Maybe it’s some sort of trick you’re pulling so you can frame Lord Voodoo.”
Melvin shot favonovel.com a look.
Coldly, favonovel.com said, “If you don’t trust us, you can ask your lackeys. Some of them came to the city before you did.”
