Stefan and Sam turned to look at the two people standing outside the door, puzzled.
Why were they here?
Stefan was pretty sure he hadn't seen Martha enter the room just now, and now...
At this time, Martha and the old Mrs. Lucas, who were standing outside the door, exchanged a glance, and then looked at the two men in the room with feigned astonishment.
In the end, Martha asked suspiciously, "It's so late. Why are you in Grandma's room?"
Although Martha pretended to be puzzled, in fact, she had known that Stefan didn't drink the glass of water she brought him tonight.
Otherwise, he should have fallen asleep now, instead of appearing in the old Mrs. Lucas' room.
Fortunately, the master had been alert enough, or what they were doing would have been discovered.
At this time, Stefan, after hearing that, frowned, and clenched his fists.
He stepped forward, with his lips slightly parted, and had the urge to question the woman where the real Martha was and what they had done to her.
Fortunately, Sam, who was standing next to Stefan, took a quick step forward and reached out to grab Stefan's arm, stopping Stefan from acting impulsively.
Stefan's eyes darkened, his lips were pursed into a line, and he finally didn't speak.
Sam looked at Martha with deep-set eyes, and said in a deep voice, "We were talking about business, and we overheard some sounds coming from the old Mrs. Lucas' room, so we went to have a look together, but we didn't expect you to go out. "
After saying this, he asked in a puzzled way, "By the way, why are you out so late?"
The old Mrs. Lucas glanced at Sam with dark eyes, and quickly covered up the strange look in her eyes.
She can't speak now, because in the eyes of them, she is paralyzed and unable to speak for a long time, so now she has to pretend to be exactly the same as before.
