Chapter 1084 “Okay. Letknow when you have updates about it. That's it for now!" Ralph hung up the call and finally realized his elbows were hurting. He probably fell too hard earlier and failed to notice it because his thoughts distracted him.
His joint was aching, and he touched it carefully with the other hand. It seemed swollen, and he wondered if it was dislocated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘What a sad day! | thought we could at least seal the deal today, even if we didn't set it in stone yet. Then | would just need to wait for the transaction to happen and get what | wanted. | never expected that woman to be so cunning.
‘She took advantage ofto distract them while she sneaked into the house. Those were just her words, so | can't trust what she said entirely.” He looked down at the pictures on his phone screen. Initially, they were treasures to him, but it now felt like a hot potato. It could not bring him anything in return, and he had to be careful of Alexander. Indeed, Heather had tricked him terribly this taround.
Alexander stood at the door to his and Lily's bedroom at home. Everything looked like they were in the correct spot, but when he looked closer, he saw a few arrows nailed to the wall on one side while the carpet on the floor was in a slightly different position.
He stretched out his hand, feeling for a button by the side of the bed and pushing it lightly. With that, a light thud sounded in the room. The room appeared untouched, but it seemed to have lost a certain kind of atmosphere, giving it a more comfortable ambiance.
Lily strode to the safe at the corner of the room and twisted something.
Then there was a click, indicating that she had opened the safe, but it was empty. It did not surprise her as she looked back at Alexander, her brow slightly raised. "You were right!" After flattening out the wrinkle on the carpet, Alexander walked over to the bed and sat down as he patted the spot next to him, motioning for Lily to cover.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she sat beside him, he put his arm around her shoulder and said unhurriedly, "He'll only leave after getting what he wants.
After all, he had gone through so much trouble and even asked for grandma's help to do this." "You're certain he worked with Heather to do this?” Lily turned to look at Alexander. When he set up this trap, Lily found it strange and wondered how he was so sure that Ralph would cover. Nonetheless, Alexander was right.
Margaret calone when she visited, so Lily thought they had guessed it wrong. She thought Ralph would not strike by himself but asked Margaret to cover to ask for the secret handbook instead.
However, she realized Margaret was only there to divert their attention when she insisted they go shopping with her and buy all sorts of things. It seemed that Ralph was only going to make a move after they left.
If they had agreed to Margaret's request too quickly, that would arouse Ralph's suspicions. Hence, they made it seem like they were unwilling to leave the house after Margaret persuaded them a few times.
As expected, Ralph cto the house not long after they left.
