She must crawl through the hole!
Sheila looked at Sylphiette and nodded, saying, “Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, I’ll make sure she doesn’t play any tricks on us!”
I won’t let her pull any tricks to get away!
Evan then gazed at Nicole deeply and thought to himself, if what she said that night was true, then she was indeed the one who suffered in the Lane family household back then…
Could it really be her?
Suddenly, he recalled the drawings that were at Nicole’s place.
Could she be the one who completed those drawings? If it were her, why would she deny it?
Evan felt trapped by the information that Sylphiette was feeding him. He decided not to trust anyone until John investigated the matter thoroughly.
That very moment, Nicole finally guessed what was going on, but she couldn’t believe it.
Did Sylphiette manage to get close to Evan because she pretended to be me back then?
That sounds absolutely ridiculous!
She had pondered on this for so long but had never thought about this possibility before.
“Sylphiette, you lead the way. Show us which hole you used to sneak in last time!” Evan declared loudly.
Sheila then strode towards her and signaled for her to lead the way.
Sylphiette stood up hesitantly and trembled as she walked forward. Damn it, Nicole. Which hole was it?
She analyzed what Kyle and Juan had said earlier, then slowed down her footsteps.
When Sheila saw her slowing down, she quickly propped her forward, in fear that she might be trying to play tricks.
“Don’t you dare pretend to fall or faint. If you do faint, I’ll pinch you until you wake up!” she threatened.
Sylphiette’s face darkened when she heard Sheila’s words.
“You don’t have to worry, Ms. Sheila!” she responded as she looked at Sheila fiercely and walked towards the southern wall.
Upon reaching the southern wall, she couldn’t find any hidden holes. She turned her head and caught a glimpse of Evan’s gloomy face.
“Evan, it’s been too long. I don’t remember very clearly. Perhaps it’s the northern wall,” she said.
“Head there then!” Sheila roared at her.
