My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 574

Michael pretended to be nonchalant as he asked Nicholas, “Nicholas, who fixed you?”

Nicholas responded, feeling overjoyed, “It was Uncle Linus who did it!”

Then, Michael sternly stared at him and responded, “Linus wasn’t even home that day!”

Nicholas replied obstinately, “Hmph. You’re lying to me! Uncle Linus was home the whole time. If you don’t believe me, go and check with Nate! It was Uncle Linus who fixed me, and he even added new features to my functionality so that I could help Mom fight the bad guys!”

“Nicholas, go and spend time with your Mom.”

Nicholas said happily, “Alright. I’ll go now.”

Sitting on the chair where Elizabeth used to sit, Michael attempted to analyze everything that took place that day.

Since Nicholas was a robot, his memory could be compromised and altered.

Reckoning that Linus was definitely not home that day, Michael supposed that it had to be someone else who fixed Nicholas.

Right at this moment, Michael recalled hearing from Sophia that on that same day, Linus drove home one of his hometown friends who was visiting him, and he remembered her saying that she even gave him two red packets before he left.

Word had it that that friend of Linus was better with technology than Linus. Besides, for Linus to let someone into his workstation, that person must have had a close relationship with him.

If that person was the person Michael thought of, he reckoned that life would be too cruel to Sophia.

At the same time, Sophia was supervising the workers who were installing grills on the kitchen windows. At the same time, she tried cleaning the room that was messed up by the street bum.

Sophia had no idea how the street bum got in, but judging from how dirty the room was, that person must have lived there for at least a couple of days.

Fortunately, nothing went missing; just that the room itself required some cleaning.

After cleaning Celine’s room, it was almost mealtime. Since everyone looked busy, Sophia volunteered to go out to get some food.

Bringing Nicholas along, Sophia went out with Hale to get some food, but because the garage was full, upon getting some food, they had to park somewhere nearby and walk home from there. In an olive-colored coat, she carried a few long bread loaves while Hale carried a few bags with him as he followed her; he carried enough food to feed ten people.

After walking just a couple of steps, Nicholas asked Sophia, “Mom, there’s someone in front of us.”

Sophia looked up and saw a woman curled up next to the fence. She was so dirty that one could hardly tell the color of her clothes, and there was also a layer of brown smudge covering her face. Given how disheveled her hair was, Sophia almost could not tell if she was male or female.

The temperature was almost freezing, so the bum was shivering. Right at this point, she was staring at the patch in front of her with her glazed eyes while she mumbled something. It appeared that she was not mentally stable.

Seeing this, Sophia had the realization that she was the street bum that barged into Celine’s place!

She looked pitiful and was probably so desperate that she decided to barge into the house.

While walking past the woman, Sophia subconsciously threw her a glance. She looks rather young, and it must be because of some mental disability that she ended up like that. It’s dangerous for a young woman to be wandering outside by herself. Seeing her reminded Sophia of her time when she wandered off and lived inside the bridge hole. She dared not fall asleep as she was afraid that the other bums might come and steal her belongings. That aside, she might even have been…
