"I''m worried they''re gonna trash our house."
"Let ''em. It''s no big deal."
Gordon ced a white piece among the ck ones on the board and said slowly, "Do you think... Timothy, this piece, is crucial for that person?" "He was the first to infiltrate."
"That''s because I allowed him to get into the Aldridge family. Without my permission, he wouldn''t even get through the door." "Yes, sir. Your foresight is unmatched."
Gordon spoke nonchntly, "Keep him around. He mighte in handyter. Maybe this ck piece can be an ally." "Understood." Downstairs.
Angelo was adamant, "I''m telling you, it''s the truth! If you don''t believe me, check the security cameras at Burke Estate. Aren''t there supposed to be cameras every few steps? They''ll prove I''m right! It was Timothy who tried to assassinate Odie!" Jenna nodded thoughtfully, "Mr. Angelo might have a point. Sophie, how about we ask Rick to pull up this morning''s footage? If Timothy wasn''t home, we should send him away!"
Hearing this, Timothy quickly looked at Sophie, nervously saying, "Ms. Sophie, I swear I didn''t do it! I..."
Sophie descended the stairs, saying, "Let''s ask Rick then. Checking the footage shouldn''t be too much trouble."
"Alright!"
Just as Jenna was about to head upstairs, Rick came down. Jenna called out, "Rick, perfect timing! Can we take a look at the security footage?"
"The security footage?" Rick replied, "Bad news, the cameras stopped working today and haven''t been fixed yet. I was just about to arrange for recements." "Stopped working?" Jenna was taken aback, "All of them?"
"Yep, all of them."All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
When Rick said this, Jenna''s jaw dropped.
The Aldridge family''s security system failing, that must be a first in over a decade?
"Rick, you must be joking."
Rick shook his head, "The equipment was outdated. Justst night, the sir mentioned recing it with a new set, but who knew they''d break down the next day? What''s going on here anyway?" en FindNovel
Adler chimed in, "Something big happened. Without the cameras, it''s hard to tell right from wrong." "Is that so?"
Rick nced at Timothy standing among the crowd and said,
"Timothy, the porridge you made for the sir this morning, he really liked it. He asked me to tell you, good job."
Everyone was stunned.
Angelo thought he misheard, "Timothy made porridge for Mr. Gordon this morning?"
"Yep."
"But I clearly saw him..."
Rick said, "The bowl''s still in the kitchen, if you don''t believe me, go take a look."
Not convinced, Angelo was the first to rush to the kitchen. On the table was a bowl of porridge, with quite a bit left.
"How is this possible... I saw it with my own eyes!"
Rick said beside him, "Mr. Angelo, you must have been mistaken. Timothy was here all day."
Jenna fell silent before saying, "If Mr.
Gordon said so, then there''s no

ason to doubt it. Sophie, what do think?"
Sophie, arm in arm with Colby, said, "I trust my husband. If he believes it, then so do I."
