"I... I..." Jenna stammered, completely lost for words. Meanwhile, Sophie was already heading upstairs. As Sophie moved up, Jenna's face betrayed her unease.
Sophie paused and asked, "You guys aren't hiding something from me, are you?"
Adler, quick on his feet, responded, "No way! I was just about to help Jenna change her dress; she was actually mad at me a moment ago. Right, Jenna?"
Jenna, nudged by Adler, awkwardly replied, "Yeah, yeah..."
Just then, Colby came up the stairs. Spotting him, Adler seized the opportunity like a lifeline. "Colby! Take your wife back to the room. I need to help your sister with her dress!"
With that, Adler hurriedly whisked Jenna away.
Sophie stayed quiet. Colby gently touched Sophie's head and said, "I'll dig through the papers later. You've had a long day, why not get some rest?"
"I'm afraid it won't be found," Sophie replied, pondering. Such a pivotal event, yet she had no recollection of it, nor had she ever heard whispers about her own kidnapping as a child.
"Colby, do you think... Claire's kidnapping story, could it be tied to the Aldridge family incident?"
Sophie recalled Jenna mentioning a kidnapping with the Aldridge family. Back then, they said Harold was the one taken, Gordon lost his legs over it, and the elder Aldridges lost their lives. Whenever Sophie thought about it, her heart raced with an unexplained unease. Claire's mention of the kidnapping today left her mind blank, as if she'd forgotten something crucial.
